      Thanks man!

      I've seen this video in 2010-2011 and now I can see it again.

    "A respected waste disposal managers"

    Honestly, I never realized how funny that line was, especially with the delivery of it lol

  6. McGroose

    "You fool, I've been trained in your Jedi arts by Count Dooku!" No shit? That line from ROTS really annoys me now. The script was clearly not made with the Clone Wars show in mind. Obi Wan fought Grievous a dozen some times in it. :/

      I agree with Mini that the 2003 version ties in much better with the prequels, and, as I said, I don't believe that the 2008 series is really meant to tie in with the prequel films -- it pushes things to a whole new level of storytelling that the prequel films never ascend to. Watching the best of TCW (2008) and then the prequel films IMHO is like reading Herbert's Dune, and then watching the latest Star Trek, hoping that it will add something to it.

    4. Cerez

      Cerez

      The prequel films had a lot of Star Wars world ideas crammed into them -- that's what they were brilliant at. Without the work done for the prequels, there would be no base for TCW.

    Anyone else get some MBII vibes from that Battlefront II Theed gameplay?

      Well people was very angry on the crossed era stuff.. emm .. It is cool in my opinion - Imagine Lord Vader with Kylo Ren on his side fighting Jar Jar Binks and Obi Wan spamming "Hello There"

    4. Onysfx

      It looks good, but I have a feeling the gameplay won't hold up as well as MBII's has.

    anyone find it weird how JKA and Kotor, games that only had a two month difference in their release dates, both have their own versions of Korriban? They're so different; JKA's is so much more fleshed out, but the tombs in Kotor's have a much better atmosphere. I wonder if Raven and Bioware ever talked about this. :/

      I found the tomb in JKA really weird, too much. Maybe they wanted to make like the Egyptian pyramids. But The Kotor version is far better about the atmosphere. And 4000 years later, the map could be different (visit other tombs to find the right one, for instance), and if there were ancient Sith spirits who fight Jedi and Cultists, it would be perfect imo.

    3. Ramikad

      Ramikad

      I'd rather see some of the local wildlife instead than Force Ghosts or Sith undead. Architecture changes in 4000 years, but monuments and natural wildlife typically not, especially if they're abandoned as they seem to be in JA.

    4. minilogoguy18

      minilogoguy18

      KotOR version is way better. That red tint to everything makes it so much better.

    Anyone know a source of decent female dark jedi/sith sounds I can use for personal modding use? Using the female jedi dialogue doesn't feel fitting at all lol

      Dang, also should've specified it not being Alora. I'm using it for singleplayer, would be weird to hear unique character dialogue with every female sith

       

    3. Circa

      Circa

      dialogue or model sounds? If you want non-dialogue sounds you could check the other languages for unique sounds, since they have different voice actors.

      OOOOOH you know, I didn't think about that, thanks!

  10. McGroose

    Apparently, all of this constant lag coming from my wireless mouse was the result of my flash drive blocking the usb reciever. Wow. A simple switch of which usb port they're connected to and my mouse performance returned back to 100%. Huzzah!

    Can anyone recommend any multiplayer games similar to Jedi Outcast or Jedi Academy? I want to relive the magic...

      No idea. ESO?

    2. minilogoguy18

      minilogoguy18

      There really isn't anything like these games.

  13. McGroose

    Could it be possible to fix the issues the Tavion, mercenary and saboteur models have? Some of their textures are transparent depending on whether you look at them at the front or the back.

    1. ensiform

      ensiform

      Screenshots?

    2. Ramikad

      Ramikad

      I guess he's referring to Tavion's feathers and the merc and saboteur lower jacket. The only fix to me seems to be a "cull disable" or "cull twosided" in the shader code for those specific textures.

  14. McGroose

    Desann objectively has the coolest lightsaber design in any Jedi Knight game.

    1. minilogoguy18

      minilogoguy18

      As far as Sith designs in general yes. I did like Kyle's 3rd hilt (JK2) mostly because as far as function it seemed to be the best. It had grips and was long enough to be used with 2 hands. It seemed the most ergonomic.

    2. McGroose

      McGroose

      At first I disliked it because of it's rather skeletal build compared to other sabers, but I think it compliments Kyle rather well. The reasons you mentioned are also good. Wish we got more context behind the history of that saber.

  15. McGroose

    Do you prefer Steam or GOG?

      Most definitely GOG. Easy to take games with you on a USB.

      Both are fine, but I kind of like gog better since it's not Valve.

  16. McGroose

    Does anyone here support the Reddit rumors behind Jar Jar Binks and him being a Sith?

    1. Circa

      Why is this even being considered...

       

      No.

      Jar Jar is nothing more than a pathetic piece of comic relief. Mesa Jar Jar Binks..... Gungans Great Warriors!

    Finally learned how to convert a JK3 model to JK2! That was way harder than making my first kitbash. The guide was pretty confusing at points.

    1. Archangel35757

      Archangel35757

      clarify the guide then...

  18. McGroose

    First time I saw the new Obi Wan vs Maul fight, I thought it was garbage. 2nd time, I understood the references and symbolism behind it, and thought it was mediocre. It was a good attempt at something different, but you don't hype someone up for shit like that.

    1. McGroose

      McGroose

      Now I just find the whole thing comical.

    2. Circa

      Agreed, they hyped it up too much but it was decently done.

    Hardware noob here: If I wanted to disable integrated graphics and add an additional GPU, would the only thing I need be the proper bios and a power supply that could handle it, or do I need something else?

      I don't think there is a thread currently going but you could always make one in the art, media and technology forum.

    How can you make an NPC with an E-11 rifle shoot in rapid bursts instead of single shots? I've seen some NPCs do that, so is it possible to modify any NPC of my choosing to do so?

      IrocJeff

      You can do it with scripts. Download my project in JO SP Maps, and i have all my scripts in there.

       

      Just copy the alt-fire ones and try it out.

    3. minilogoguy18

      minilogoguy18

      Pretty sure it has to do with the NPC class and how aggressive they are. Look at the stcommander.npc and impcommander.npc as they both do this.

    4. Dusty

      Dusty

      In the new version of Dusty's Patch you can use the npc field to force alt-fire. In JK2 class_imperial and class_rodian always use alt-fire with the e-11 if I remember right.

    How does the name "Medieval Tar" sound for a horror story/game?

      Admittingly ya cause I heard varying opinions on it, but last time I think I asked if people preferred the name "Medieval Acid" vs "Medieval Tar"

    3. Wasa

      Wasa

      It sounds like some kind of cake

    4. the_raven

      the_raven

      Medieval Acid you say? That sounds wicked! As to your question, I remembered the Tar Monster from the original Scooby-Doo series. Good times, good times.

  22. McGroose

    How would I change an NPC's weapons in JK2? Modifying NPCs in JK2 is slightly different than in JKA.

    1. Circa

      Circa

      In the npc.cfg. It's the same as in JKA but in one file.

    2. McGroose

      McGroose

      I meant in terms of how one would change an NPC's weapon. I don't think just adding the line: WEAPON: WP_BLASTER works.

    3. Circa

      Circa

      Ohh right. Forgot JK2 doesn't have that line. I think weapons are scripted to NPCs then.

      Every single game Nintendo showed looked like garbage except for maybe Star Fox, which looked exactly like Star Fox 64 in gameplay and in graphics. And where the hell was Zelda Wii U?
