The results are in! You all voted and the winner is...

For the Nightsister Assets mod. I hope to see these assets used in a full map someday! Nice work.
 

Maybe a bit but I ended up getting my 3070 Ti used for about the same as they are going for new right now. The previous owner only used it for 3 months.

I completely upgraded my build a few months ago to 12th gen Intel and a 3070 Ti. Wasn't cheap but I found the GPU for near MSRP which was a major win at the time.

Love this! Brings back the memories of Jedi Academy Re-edited!

I'll be giving this a go!

I got mine in with time to spare too. 😁

"This was a huge turnoff for me, since of course with no tutorials, how could we learn?! This all changed for me back in 2012, when I noticed one day that the author of the Deception mod actually left behind the source files for his mod! Taking an interest, I began studying those files, and through those files I was able to learn how to create my own missions. If the author of that mod ever sees this, thank you so much! "

You're welcome. That is exactly why I left those files in place. I had to piece it all together from bits and pieces others were willing or able to share, and there was a lot of trial and error to make it all work. Glad you got some use out of them - and may they serve you and everyone else well.

Yes! And Kejim is literally just Kevin + Jim. 😂

Also make sure your base path is correct. It doesn't have to be the game's base folder, but the folder that the models/players/_humanoid/ folder and your model's folder are in need to be in a folder called "base" and can be anywhere on your drive like the Desktop, and make sure to put that path in the Import window on the right side.

Snow is a real substance in the real world, not just Hoth. Perhaps you don’t have any where you live but this time of year we get snow in the northern hemisphere.
This season also has a lot of holidays around the world. JKHub is run by westerners, we celebrate Christmas. This temporary theme is to celebrate the Christmas theme. 
 
It’s supposed to be a happy and cheerful theme to celebrate the season.

Those "circles" are representing snow, because it's Holiday season.
You can easily change the theme of the website. Just scroll down at the very bottom of this site, and you will find the word "Theme". Click on that and choose the one theme you prefer.

Everyone been nice, with a pinch of naughty this year? 🎅
It's been quite awhile since we've done a end of year holiday or Christmas event around here, mostly due to lack of activity. We used to do Secret Santa events but that requires a lot of participants and many great mods made for them don't end up getting released, so we don't really do that anymore. But since Christmas is my personal favorite holiday and season, we're going for it.
I figured we can keep the mod contest train going, and take a stop through Christmas town! Of course this isn't discriminatory against any end-of-the-year holidays, this can include Christmas, New Years, Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, St. Lucy, Las Posadas, St. Nicholas, Omisoka, Boxing Day, and any others that I forgot. If your culture celebrates it in December-ish, it qualifies.
Rules:
All submissions must be Christmas or other end-of-year holiday themed (Santa, gifts, snow, reindeer, menorahs, dreidels, kinaras, evergreen trees with lights, etc.) You can only enter your own creations. You may enter more than one mod. Already existing files cannot be submitted. The goal is to encourage new creations! Any mod content is welcome, including skins, models, maps, weapons, menu mods, etc. Just make sure it abides by the rules. Mods can be for Jedi Academy and/or Jedi Outcast. We will assume mods are for JKA unless specified otherwise. The deadline for submitting content is December 28, 2022, after which a poll will be opened. The poll will be closed by the end of day January 1st, 2023. Need inspiration?
You can view the many Holiday related mods that have been tagged at the link here. For other inspiration take a look at the holiday events that some big live service games put on like Call of Duty (Krampus event in Vanguard/Warzone last year was big), Fortnite, etc.
How do I submit my mod?
Our goal is to make it as simple as possible for everyone involved. The way you submit your file for this contest is to upload them as normal files in our file section, but using the category called Contest Entries. After the contest is over, we will move the mods to their respective categories.

Click the button below, and submit your mod as you normally would. The category should be set to Contest Entries already. If you don't enter it there, your file won't be entered until you do. If you realize that you didn't do that, PM a staff member and we can change it for you. Good luck and happy festive season! 🎄

THE WINNER IS KYLE'S HOLIDAY AFTERNOON by @MagSul


 
It was a very close call between me and @MagSul despite so few votes overall, but Mag pulled ahead and is declared the WINNER OF THE HOLIDAY MOD CONTEST 2022!
His mod Kyle's Holiday Afternoon is a charming little mod that I personally voted for, so I'm glad to see it win! Seeing Kyle in a Christmas Sweater getting pummeled by snowballs is something everyone needed, for sure.
Congrats and well done to the other contestants! Hope everyone had a safe and happy holiday season, and welcome to 2023! Jedi Academy turns 20 this year, so we have some exciting things planned!

Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving! You know what we're thankful for? All of you! (Ok that was pretty cheesy)
MENU OVERHAULS
This update we've really been focusing on overhauling a number of menus present in the mod. As of typing this report, many of the menus we've been planning to overhaul have been completed, with 1 or 2 more menus remaining.
Primarily, the biggest changes you'll be seeing are in the Character menu. Through the magic of coding, we have the menu made so both the character and NPC spawner menus use the same files. The hope is that this change will help us to save a ton of memory and prevent the game from utilizing more memory to load in more menu items than necessary.
Below are two screenshots illustrating the dual-functionality of the menu. The first screenshot shows the menu in "Character Mode", while the second screenshot shows off the same menu in "NPC Mode". The 5 faction icons you see below will be pertaining to the random Jedi and Sith NPCs we introduced many years ago, placing them in a much more convenient place.


Another really cool cosmetic feature is that lightsabers can now be freely selected and applied to any character you select. Whether it's a character with a set lightsaber or someone not assigned one at all, you will now have the freedom to customize the elegant weapon from a more civilized age for any character.


NPC FREE CHOICE SYSTEM
This update also saw to the addition of some new and improvements to the NPC Free Choice System.
To begin, a lot of optimizations to the existing code have been made. Now what does this mean for you? The player? Aside for some background stuff you'll probably never notice, we have fixed one glaring bug with the Free Choice system, which is that now NPCs with pre-set skins can now have their skins changed.
The next feature (which is really cool!) is the addition of the first set of a new system of NPC Commands!
For a long time, we've been asked by many people to give them the ability to further control NPCs. Now we're giving you that option!
With this next update, 5 new NPC Commands will be making their way to the mod! These are:
Set Animation Set Team Set Enemy Target Set Weapon Set Saber More will be coming, but I felt personally that these would be the best to start with right now.
CONCLUSION
 
We're looking forward to putting this update behind us so we can continue to put together new content. We recently posted a new Community Feedback form on our Discord server, please feel free to fill it out if you'd like to have a voice on which direction this mod should go next.

Thank you for following the development of Star Wars: Galactic Legacy, and may the Force be with you.

There has been an update! 😀
The mod no longer ends after the trial and conversation between Luke, Rosh, Kyle and Jaden. Players should be led into a new cutscene level and then a whole new level back at the Jedi Academy at nightfall with some entirely new things to do. I'm currently working on the first level away from the academy grounds and am aiming for a Spring 2023 release for that.
Although I played it from start to finish on a clean install without any bugs, people always manage to find them! So, feel free to let me know what you come across. I will post again this coming week with a brief guide for the newest level, but for now I'm not mentioning anything because I'd like to see where people get stuck (if at all!) 😊

You'd actually change cape,models/players/marajade/cape.jpg to just cape,*off and it deactivates the entire mesh of the cape.

Agreed on all your points there.
My opinions did not change on it either. I think it's by far the best Star Wars we've gotten since the Disney acquisition, even better than Rogue One. I typically prefer my Star Wars focused on Jedi and Sith stories in general, however another big genre I love is the spy thriller genre, and Andor hits the nail on the head with that.
It keeps the build slow but steady throughout, with each small arc being directly related and impactful toward the end goal. Every episode matters and is a huge puzzle piece (something the other SW shows do not do well) and the payoff at the end was just so worth it. No big cameos, no crazy galaxy-ending events, just the culmination of Andor and Mothma's journey from where we see them in episode 1, to the end.
The writing was just masterful at every step. I've been wanting a show like this in Star Wars for so long. I like the other shows fine, but this has set a new standard that I hope Lucasfilm measures themselves to going forward, rather than trying to cater to kids and casuals so much. Andor proves you don't need that to make good Star Wars that people love.

Now that the season finale has been released, here are my thoughts. Nothing has changed much since my previous post, but there are still some things I wanted to say.
