Personally I couldn't care less about modding and story as long as the multiplayer is good, even though I love both in JK2 and/or JKA. I still think it would be cool to have something like openArena for Jedi Academy but I doubt it will happen. Needs too many new assets.

A new JK game would suck anyway. Would probably be some kind of TFU bullshit

One of the best looking maps in JKA

Looks like it could be way better than EPVII

I wrote a batchfile now, works just as good

Is it possible to change the output name in q3map2 when converting? At the moment it adds a *_converted to the end of the file, for example mapname_converted.map. Is there a way to prevent that?

Recently I had some time to kill, so I started working on a tool that generates random .map files. So far it asks for a mapsize, ambientlightscale, type of brushes and the mapname. Based on the mapsize it correctly places spawnpoints and lightentities. Since I had Racing in Quake Live in mind when doing this it also places race start- and endpoints. At the moment it only fills the room with random brushes (either flat platforms or pillars) but I plan to add more complex stuff. Todo: Generate maps that are actually fun to play Ask the player for textures, color of lightentities, game (quake live, jedi academy etc), etc Gui (maybe) Generate bsps (probably not) Some screenshots. If you got some ideas please let me now Edit: This is also my 1000. post

Sounds cool. If there's a temple map then it shouldn't feel empty.

I think option two would be the coolest. But tbh, I think it would be more fun if you could choose which next mission you want to do next. Otherwise it might feel awkward for the player if you have to run through the temple without even having a choice where to go. If it's completely linear, then going to the ship (option three) would be better I guess. It could also be half-linear. We could make most missions non-linear and at some point you have the choice to do more missions or to continue with the story.

Expanded sounds nice

The concept that therfiles and me had in mind back then was actually an approach with more instead of less 'role-playing'. Means you have people like Kyle or Luke who give you the next mission when you talk with them. Therfiles made a dialogue-script which could be used for that. Eezstreet had the idea to allow upgrades for weapons in the temple. There was also the idea that you actually have to learn the new force powers ingame (like the force training mission in jk2). But I can see why it would be a good idea to make the game more linear. The question is: Do you really need a temple map if the game is completely linear and if yes, how would it work? About the map itself, I actually thought it would be a good idea to use the temple from Jedi Outcast and spice it up with the levels that are used for the cutscenes of Jedi Academy. But that's just one option.

There was this idea to have an actual academy level where you can choose the next mission instead of these menu screens. If I had time that would be the number one thing that I'd work on

I'm sick of the corrupt media nowadays only showing us what we're supposed to see, hiding the truth from the masses. Lies everywhere, indoctrinated by the government. Where is the feature about JoC? heh?

Dunno if anyone has pointed that out before, but there is a project called "Jedi Knight: Enhanced" on jkhub.net. So not only have we stolen their jkhub, now we also steal their JK:E. On a serious note tho: It would probably be good to release this only as JKA:E or JKO:E to avoid confusion. Also OJP is known as JK:Enhanced as well iirc.

Movie Duels not Movie Battles. Also do people really play Kotf in multiplayer? And if yes, how is it different to play on a ja+ server with custom maps and custom models?

Isn't Movie Duels pretty much what Kotf is supposed to be?

But you'll hit the game's limits on basejka anyway. And even if you can run it, it doesn't mean that you'll get decent fps

Such a good idea

Not sure if anyone has posted this here already. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kpp2CAjV2ms It's always cool to see people from the scene playing this game on camera. Didn't happen really often since Jedi Outcast ESL Pro series in 2002

I think the new sky is even better looking

Tbh I changed back to the old theme for now. Even tho the new background looks better, it's too bright for me

sexy as fak Can you do something similar for the vehicle hud?

Yes, you can download the rcon password from the server. But that should be fixed on most mods. Similar reason why voting is disabled on many servers.

Looks great
