Included the link to our google drive where all assets can be found, in case if you're experiencing major issues with the updater and launcher.

There has been a new updater....have you felt it? (WINDOWS ONLY)

DOWNLOAD HERE: https://www.moddb.com/mods/knights-of-the-force-21/downloads/kotf-launcher

MANUAL DOWNLOAD HERE: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1p6Z1uYW0ldrgETGARFynVVREJ0jQ63uu

If you answered yes to this question, continue to read, if you answered no....keep reading anyway.

Today, we launch our new updater and patching system, coded by some weirdo with no social life and who has never made a launcher before (me).

WHAT IS THIS LAUNCHER?

This launcher will provide players, both new and current, with an easier, more accessible way to download, install, and update their game. As we all know, most modern games provide patches and updates after release, and we want to provide players with updates as well, instead of forcing you to download an 8GB file every month.

Keep in mind, this launcher can only be used by players running on Windows. But we will have something in store for Mac and Linux users as well.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Simply start the launcher, and a new window will open up. You'll see 7 buttons, as well as a website.

Single Player: Start Single Player

Multiplayer: Start Multiplayer

Mute/Play Music: Mute or Play the music (currently it's Rey's theme, however you can change it if you desire)

Update: Start the updater.

The final 3 buttons at the top will take you to our 3 social media websites: JKHub, Discord, and Moddb.

USING THE UPDATER

To use the Updater, simply click on the "Update" button, OR, start the KotF-Updater.exe file. It will take a while for the updater to do its thing so be patient. Once the updater has finished, the updater will close, and the launcher will start up again. The website will be updated with patch notes as we release, as well as posted here on JKHub, Moddb, and Discord.

HOW TO CHANGE THE MUSIC?

The music can be located in the KotF-Launcher folder. If you wish to change the music, simple drag any .mp3 file into the folder and name it "music.mp3". If you want to remove the music, simply delete the music.mp3. The music will never be touched via the updater, it's entirely your choice.

HOW OFTEN WILL WE UPDATE?

We won't release updates too frequently, a majority of updates we release will mostly be bug fixes. At worst, we will release more serious updates at least once per month.

FOR LINUX AND MAC USERS

We never forgot about you. So how will you receive updates?

While it would be very unfair for us to release bug fixes at the same frequency, it would be rude of us to not give you all the same updates and fixes as everyone else.

Alongside any major releases, we will also zip together all files that have been updated up until that point and release them via the website. Once every few months, we will upload the full mod to google drive and update our download links for you all.

Link to website: http://linken233.github.io

WHAT ABOUT PROGRESS REPORTS?

Progress Reports will still be made, but now we will also make "Patch Notes" topics in the developer section of this forum whenever we release an update. A direct link to the website and update will be provided for all users in each Progress Report and Patch Note topic.

I was wondering if there was any possibility of having full dismemberment without having to use realistic sabers. I've enabled the dismemberment settings, but they do nothing. I'm on the steam version which could be the problem

 

EDIT: Fuck me I just looked at the known bugs thread, ignore this, I'm a fucking idiot

Try this:

1. Open up settings and navigate to Game Options

2. Locate the option "Model dismemberment" and make sure it's turned on.

3. Locate the option "Dismemberment Probability" and set it to "Off"

4. ???

5. Chop chop.

Download link added for the torrent. Download torrents at your own risk, we don't support these things.

Good Day to everyone in the Kotf 2.1 Development team I want to suggest more Download ways for Kotf 2.1 beta

 

 Well In Latin America the network isnt strong enough to download a 7,9 Gb file in a single way that would take days with the pc On with no Rest (Yeah there still places where the internet is like in the 90´s)

 

Im From Venezuela and is just really Hard to Download the mod in a platform like google Drive so i want to suggest alternative download ways like Utorrent or Mega 

 

Thank You and Have a good day

I don't know whether someone encountered this problem but if I run the .exe, the game opens in window mode (both SP and MP) and I can neither maximise it nor run it in fullscreen.

I tried running the game from steam then setup>mods>KotF but there is no text and the SP doesn't work at all (there's just main menu and clicking won't do anything).

 

The mod seems to work through .exe but I can't run it in fullscreen which is kind of annoying. I tried messing with properties of the files but it only allows me to run the mod in 800x600 resolution ;_;

Under video, there's an option to set your game resolution, there's even an option to set the game to your desktop resolution.

Truthfully, I haven't noticed a change in blocking, we never touched it in the code.

I did however reimplement the armed jawa into the game, but gave it the DEMP2 gun.

ok so Ive gotten it to work!!! Thanks for the help, and also when is the saga gonna be available? Duel Of The Fates was amazing btw, great work!!

The saga will be available.....whenever. I have no idea.

There's a currently locked section on the menu called "Archives", and I wanted to know its purpose.

Until we do anything with it, it's whatever you want it to be.

Is there something else that allows npcs to move around the map in custom sp maps?  Or are they generally like they are in KotF, sticking to their spawn point for the most part?  My experience since making this topic is basic enemies are the least responsive.  Stormtroopers hardly react until you're right up in their face, and they really don't move from their spawn points at all.  Sith Lords and other major enemies are a little more proactive though, they at least leap at you if you get far enough away from them, but like all npcs they stop following entirely if anything blocks their line of sight.

It's a limitation of the jedi academy AI. Only way to improve them is through scripts.

It is Link, idk why the base maps are being so weird.

Send me a message over Skype, show me a screenshot of your base folder, gamedata folder, and the top portion of your KotF folder.

I've noticed on a number of maps, certain surfaces are missing textures or the entire thing is just a dark, untextured void which results in the game crashing in SP, most notibly for SP maps and one/two custom maps.

Hey Phillip!

Is your base folder empty of all mods?

I moved the renders back into game data and it worked but its still just regular Jedi academy sp when it plays . 

I posted a new installation guide, give it a read.

This guide will also work for steam users.

BEFORE INSTALLING & RUNNING

1. Your base folder must be clear of all mods.

2. Your copy of Jedi Academy must be patched to v1.01.

INSTALLATION GUIDE

1. Download the KotF Beta zip file here: https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=1EfuQNSOO9jNkQRzuAFYUxmpRu5I_B8Nt

2. Locate the folder named "KotF", and extract it into your Gamedata folder. DO NOT EXTRACT THE CONTENTS OF THE KOTF FOLDER INTO YOUR GAMEDATA FOLDER.

3. Locate the folder named "KotF-Windows" and open it, you will see a folder named "Gamedata". Open the "Gamedata" folder.

4. Inside of the KotF-Windows/Gamedata folder, you will notice multiple files, and another KotF folder. Extract all of the files + the KotF folder into your Jedi Academy Gamedata folder.

5. Run either KotF 2.1 SP or KotF 2.1 MP as an administrator. To set this to default, right click either file, and select "Properties".

6. Navigate to the "Compatibility" tab.

7. Locate the checkbox labelled "Run this program as an administrator", check the box. Click Apply, and close. Repeat for the other exe file if necessary.

8. Start the mod using ONLY either "KotF 2.1 SP" OR "KotF 2.1 MP".

9. Have fun.

A new download link has been added in light of the file being removed from JKHub temporarily. Enjoy!

The problem is, when I click "accept" on that message (that includes a crash log notification) the game doesn't open.

Send me a screenshot over discord. My discord name is Linken#6000.

Boom it finally worked! Thank you very much. I've been looking forward to this for a long time, I appreciate the walk through.

Yay! You're welcome.

It's a normal thing. If you notice any missing textures, let us know.

It doesn't seem to have worked.  It just reloads the main menu and gives the error for weapon 35.  I posted a screenshot of the command console on that google drive file.

Try a fresh install of kotf. I've got nothing.

Alright so now it appears to be working better, it loads all the way until it is about to start the first level, but, the lightsabers still appear awkwardly, and now before the level loads it brings me back to the main menu with the error "Couldn't find item for Weapon 35", when I open the command console there's even more missing things such as some player models, and image shaders for some of the saber colors.

Try doing a fresh install of KotF, see what that does.

I take it that means I'm gonna have to reinstall KOTF lol

No, you just need to put in the render files. In the Knights of the Force 2.1 Beta.zip file, do the following:

1. Open KotF-Windows

2. Open Gamedata.

3. Locate the files named "rdsp_kotf_x86.dll" and "rdmp_kotf_x86.dll" and place them inside your actual gamedata folder.

Thanks, I did what you said but now it says failed to load render?

You must've deleted the kotf render files.

I see, so what can I do to potentially fix that?  Is there a version of the file I can replace mine with or something?

Remove them if possible, and see what happens.
