ffa_deathstar, ffa_yavin and the WLS CTF map pack for JK2. I never really cared for the base JKA maps that much. BlueIce Twilight and BlueIce Nightfall are probably my favorite JK3 maps, only because they are a lot of fun to explore. 

It would be cool if you could add some way for you to be able to automatically download and update mods from JKHub right from the launcher, kind of how Steam workshop works with Skyrim's launcher. 

You could just use Wordpress with a modified theme. 

It's also highly likely that they will add Jedi Outcast to the bundle soon for people who have beaten the average price. JK2 will likely get a boost as well. 

Source code release? That was over a year ago though. 

There's so many people playing JKA now. I looked at the server list and it said 500 people were playing. Just a couple of weeks ago when the master server was down there were only like 2 or 3 populated servers with like 6 people on each. 

Lol.  I originally owned a copy, but I no longer have the install discs...so...

 

So... you are going to buy the Humble Bundle legal copy. Or did you...no... you couldn't have...

JKA might be a lot more active now with that Humble Bundle!

This bundle is actually pretty good. I haven't bought a bundle in ages. A lot of the latest ones have sucked, quite frankly. I think the last one I actually bought was the one with Batman Arkham Asylum which was like at least 6 months ago.

I also finally own a legal copy of JKA...

Or Pastebin.

Make sure to put the fabulous_openjk.pk3 file in your base folder. It's in the OpenJK folder by default, I don't know why. That usually clears up any crashes that I have. 

I think I'm closer to the error. In the call stack window, right under the entry that points to the strncpy.asm file, a green arrow points me to this line of code: 

 

strncpy(files[*num_file].dir, page, strstr(page, ";")-page);

It's within the J3F_GetData function. When the J3F_GetData function is called in main.cpp, it has 3 null parameters at the end.

 

J3F_GetData(urls[curr_url], urls, &num_url, files, &num_file, &num_page, &curr_url, NULL, NULL, NULL);

Maybe these three null parameters at the end are the problem? Still not entirely sure what to do.

I tried to clean it up a bit a few times but I eventually realized it was kind of pointless since no one seems to even read the wiki. 

Oh shit, didn't realize people responded. Free time has fallen significantly recently so work on this will be a lot slower.

I have ran it in the Visual Studio 2010 debugger and the access violation error is the only thing the debugger window displays. Immediately after the error it points me with a yellow arrow to a line in the strncpy.asm file, which can't be the problem because it's code written by Microsoft. Perhaps the error occurs where the strncpy function is used in the bot code?

Hey guys, 

 

Let me just start off by saying that I'm a far from experienced coder. One of the ways I'm trying to learn practical C++ is by looking at @@spior's JK3files download bot and trying to understand the code. The more I look at it and experiment with stuff the more I think I understand how it works. If I figure it out fully I plan to try to fix the bugs that the downloader bot has been plagued with for so long now. Here's the source, if anyone's forgotten where it is: https://bitbucket.org/spior/jk3files/src

 

Anyway, the first issue I'm trying to tackle is an instant crash I get when trying to download all of the Jedi Outcast mods from JK3files (using the bot's "JK2" parameter). The bot that I'm running I compiled directly from the source and I'm running it through the Visual Studio debugger. This is the error the debugger gives me: 

 

Unhandled exception at 0x1003d785 (msvcr100d.dll) in jk3files.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation writing location 0x0128f140.

 

I also happened to notice that @@eezstreet mentions this particular bug in his "Debugging like a pro" tutorial at the end. Apparently this bug occurs because the code using a reference to a null pointer. 

 

Sure enough, in main.cpp I found a pointer set to NULL: 

 

file_t *files= NULL;

And then it's referenced later in jk3_func.cpp:

 

void J3F_GetData(
	const char *page, 
	char urls[][MAX_URL_LEN], int *num_url, 
	file_t *files, int *num_file, 
	int *num_page, int *curr, 
	int *num_files, long *num_dl, double *num_GB
	)

I think I understand the error but I'm not sure what I would have to do to fix it. Would I have to change the pointer to something other than a null? I've tried experimenting with some stuff but usually it just results in compiler errors.

That fixed it, thanks!

Hello everyone, back from JKHub exile for a bit.

 

I'm having some trouble with the OpenJK Linux build. I can run the game fine in windowed mode, but when I switch to full-screen the game screws up for lack of better words. It doesn't really crash as I wrote in the title. Rather, it loads up the game menu and I see it for only about 1-2 seconds until it reloads the menu. It keeps reloading the menu over and over again until I force OpenJK to close. I don't even have enough time to enter in the windowed command into OpenJK's console, so in order to run the game again I have to launch it with the windowed parameter. The same thing also happens when running in windowed mode but giving it a reasonably high resolution (something over 1280 x 1024).

 

Is this something you guys can fix with the source code or is there something I need to do on my end to fix it?

Steam isn't working for some reason. Whenever I add you it returns an error. 

 

EDIT: Nevermind it works now. 

I'm going into JKHub exile for a few more months so I won't be on here for a while. In case anyone wants to contact me add me on Steam. 

I do. I just need someone's email and I can send it to them. 

I got kind of pissed off after that last crash and deleted OpenJK. I don't think I'm going to use it again until it's stable, or until rend2 is available for JK2 HD. 

 

Webcam chat with Kyle.

There's something off about the cloth making up his shirt. It looks stretched at certain places, making it look more like chain mail than a woven material

That did it, I can see the texture now at least. My normal map must be awful though because I don't see any improvement.

 

 

@@redsaurus no it's a .shader, does it have to be a .mtr to work?

 

EDIT:

 

...and now, when I try to load the same map using the exact same procedure as before, OpenJK crashes.
