That's funny, I had just started on doing this myself for JA with Video Enhance AI. Your results seem a bit better than what I got, I assume it's because you're using Gigapixel and doing things frame by frame?

That may be version-specific? It didn't display for me, even after discovering that error and double-checking in Radiant. Or perhaps it is supposed to and just flat out didn't for some odd reason.

Turns out we did have some progressive JPEGS that we had to resave as Basline Standard JPEGs in Photoshop. Doesn't explain why Kalek could load the map in base JA and I couldn't, but at least this info is here for anyone else who runs into this issue. Also, NetRadiant-custom was very helpful as it was the only software that told the user, upon loading a .map file, that there were progressive JPEGs and specifically what files.

I've had a lot of trouble with FFMPEG, as well as trying to find a decent GUI for it. What exactly would the reverse parameters/commands be? The plan is that I want to upscale JA's (and maybe JO's) cutscenes and release it as a mod for the community, but without a proper way to capture those files in a non-ROQ format, I'm a bit stuck. EDIT: Found a working GUI, FFMPEG did the trick, thanks.

I think it's fairly safe to assume that this isn't the problem, since Kalek got this working and we're using all the same textures. I've confirmed and overwritten the texture files several times to make sure that's the case. As you said, the message is quite vague so I'm not sure what else to troubleshoot.

I'm looking to convert JA's ROQ files to a more practical format. I tried using Quake Video Maker, importing the ROQ as a "animation sequence", but while it does import successfully, both the preview and the exported files are slightly glitchy versions of the original format. Check out the red planet on the left, for example: https://imgur.com/a/8RL0SaA Am I missing something? Is there another way to do this?

I'm trying to get a BSP I made to load but no matter what I do it crashes upon devmapping. @Kalek got it working no problem which tells me the explanation I saw online of a funky texture needing to be a TGA and not JPG isn't the solution. So, when he makes an sends me the BSP it crashes. I make my own BSP, same thing. Using compile mode (single) BSP -meta.

Good to see some love for some of these less-popular Star Wars games. Episode 1 was a lot of fun. These recreations are excellently done.

Bando Gora has been approved:

Long time no see. I used to have a mode for MP back in the day that let move the camera around to take screenshots of my skins, but no clue what it was. It had a slider interface. I can't find another good way of taking screenshots in JA so unfortunately you'll be stuck with these ModView ones. Bando Gora has been submitted for approval, here's the final version for reference. Maybe at some point I'll add custom sounds from Star Wars: Bounty Hunter, but otherwise it's finished Because of the new Lego Star Wars game, I made a quick and dirty reskin of the protocol droid. Here is H1-NT (aka "hint") who gives players hints about the game. Good news is it's done, bad news is I didn't realize that it had it's own skeleton/animations so it doesn't work in-game and just defaults to Katarn instead. Probably should've thought of that sooner... oh well. If anyone wants to try to fix that issue let me know, I likely won't be doing so myself anytime soon.

This one is kind of off-topic, but I'm also working on a Reshade preset for Jedi Academy. For those who don't know about Reshade, it's a way for you to implement post-processing effects on pretty much any game. It works with Direct X and OpenGL luckily. It's certainly not as mind-blowing as some of the rendering work being done by other modders right now, but it's far more user-friendly and it's already working. My preset includes: - Anti-Aliasing - Mouse-Based Motion Blur - Ambient Occlusion - Lens Flare - Anamorphic Depth of Field - Debanding - Bloom - Reflections I've tried to use these all sparingly. I didn't want to go overboard and I wanted it to feel natural within the environment of Jedi Academy. Here's a video showing the preset in its current state. Please note the FPS is poor in some areas, this is NOT due to Reshade. I never experienced FPS under 60 until I started screen capturing this too. It is 4K after all, and I had my browser, Blender, and a few other things open in the background too. Reshade has surprisingly good performance. Now of course, nothing is without compromise. There are several issues with using Reshade: - Reshade is always on, not just in game. Therefore, menus have the same effects on them (another reason for me to keep things dialed back) - It cannot detect the UI very well, so the depth of field effect can blur out some areas of the HUD - Sabers look weird in front of some reflective surfaces - Reflections are applied to EVERY surface based on angle of view, therefore it can't detect that sand textures shouldn't be shiny. Indoor areas look great, however.

Since it's taking several days to get the file approved, here's a download link for the Clone Sergeant: http://www.mediafire.com/file/kdfioxelbwq4cwh/CloneSergeantPhaseI.zip/file

Good choice, definitely my favorite SW game.

I don't think I've seen yours. I'll check it out, thanks. Not sure which one you meant, but I agree fully in both cases. ?

I just got JA on Steam and obviously we all have lots of extra time right now, so I figured why not? Thanks, glad you like them. More to come. I'll be uploading them shortly.

Thank you. I'm not sure if it's the same issue.,. If it's not crashing does that mean there isn't an issue? For instance, I've got a 4096x4096 texture of the ground from the first Yavin mission. If the mod actually loads and the texture is a multiple of 2, shouldn't that work? As a side note, if you're interested in contributing - since it seems like you attempted to do the same - let me know. EDIT: I also just tried saving that texture as Baseline (not Progressive), still no luck. So, it's proper resolution, not saved as progressive, and still no luck.

So I lost those skins ages ago, but I'm remaking them now. I got some better references of the Bando Gora and I think it looks much more accurate now. As for the Clone Sergeant, he's been fixed too. I've made his chest insignia/markings more circular as the texture gets stretched out when applied to the model, which is no longer an issue. I've also matched the helmet to the armor much better. As much as I love this model, the helmet doesn't remotely match, it looks way too white and pristine so I've added a bit of wear and tear/dirt and tinted it slightly towards the yellow/brown hue we see in the armor. It's not perfect and with another 10-15 minutes it could match perfectly but I just couldn't be bothered today.

I've upscaled all the textures in the game (yes, all of them) but I'm having trouble getting the mod to work. I started by loading up the first mission of SP on Yavin so I could see the before, then I would load a mod folder through Setup > Mods. It would take some time to load up again (which makes sense, it's like 2.5GB) but once it finally loads there's no difference whatsoever. Here's what I've tried: - Made sure folder structure and spelling is correct - Tried breaking up the single 2.5GB .pk3 into multiple 500MB (thought maybe the engine wouldn't load a .pk3 that large) - Sticking it straight in my base folder instead of loading from a mod folder - Renamed it to start with "zzz" to ensure it loads last I made the PK3 by simply using WinRAR to create a .zip and then renaming it to .pk3. The guides I've read online said that shouldn't be a problem, and based on load times it clearly is loading/detecting the .PK3, but thought I'd mention that just in case. PakScape does not work properly on my PC. Any ideas?

It does work, thanks very much.

Back on the good ol' FileFront site there was a mod released by the name of Jedi Academy Unlimited. All it did was unlock several limits on the amount of mods you could use at a given time. I don't know any more details than that, sadly, and haven't been able to find it online anywhere. Anyone remember this or happen to have a copy?
