HOW TO MAKE A NEW FORCE POWER – SINGLE PLAYER
Welcome to alls to my third tutorial.
In this tutorial i wanna tell you how you can add a new force power on JKA Single player game. I wanna to share with you the code of my force controlmind power. It’s act just like the force mindtrick level 4. it’s really a simple power to make and not take much time or work.
Warning: some power require more complex works.
That’s depend by you and by your code skill. I will not tell you how program a new power. I wanna tell you exactly what section of SP code you need to edit for add a new power and allow to the power to be usable.
About programming, you need to think carefully about the kind of force power you want to do.
If you want force shockwave power, for example, you need to dive the code and to see how work work the splashdamage of sabers and the force push power. If you want instead a freezing power, you need to study careful the d_npcfreeze cheat, the force grip power level 1 for locking enemy in a position and the force mindtrick power for the casting and visual efx of stasys enemy, or maybe, if you want an aura effect related to this, you need to study the FP_PROTECT or absorb aura power.
I wanna tell you an indication about where you can find the code stuff related to these powers.
FP_SENSE: wp_saber.cpp storing power working stuff. Cg_players.cpp storing the aura effect and the mask effect with the 2d scrolling.
FP_SABER_DEFENSE, OFFENSE, THROW: check WP_SABER.CPP
FP_SPEED: basically wp_saber.cpp
FP_LIGHTNING: cgplayer for lightning visual effect, WP_SABER.cpp for lightning programming.
FP_DRAIN: same as lightning.
FP_GRIP, it’s all on wp_saber.cpp, but it’s in 4 different block. You can find a part of grip code into the void forcegrip, and also more stuff into forcepowerstop, forcepowerstart and forcepowerrun function.
FP_MINDTRICK: it’s all on wp_saber.cpp, in only a block , void forcetelepathy.
FP_RAGE: wp_saber.cpp.
FP_PROTECT and FP_ABSORB: programmed on wp_saber.cpp, the aura effect is created on CG_PLAYERS.cpp
FP_HEAL: on WP_saber.cpp.
Sound of force powers: all these are definitated in a large case and switch functions array into wp_saber.cpp
Okay, now let we start with the true tutorial.
What you need:
- Microsoft visual studio 2010 \ 2012
- OpenJK
- force power icon.
- a description of your force power into SP_INGAME.
I will teach how to do. You got all that? Good! We start!
First off, you need to add your power to the force power list.
WARNING: you can have only total amount of 32 force power, not more. But in single player there are only 16 force power active, so you should got not much trouble about this.
Go to code/qcommon\q_shared.h
And find this enum string:
typedef enum
{
FP_FIRST = 0,//marker
FP_HEAL = 0,//instant
FP_LEVITATION,//hold/duration
FP_SPEED,//duration
FP_PUSH,//hold/duration
FP_PULL,//hold/duration
FP_TELEPATHY,//instant
FP_GRIP,//hold/duration
FP_LIGHTNING,//hold/duration
FP_SABERTHROW,
FP_SABER_DEFENSE,
FP_SABER_OFFENSE,
//new Jedi Academy powers
FP_RAGE,//duration - speed, invincibility and extra damage for short period, drains your health and leaves you weak and slow afterwards.
FP_PROTECT,//duration - protect against physical/energy (level 1 stops blaster/energy bolts, level 2 stops projectiles, level 3 protects against explosions)FP_ABSORB,/duration - protect against dark force powers (grip, lightning, drain - maybe push/pull, too?)
FP_DRAIN,//hold/duration - drain force power for health
FP_SEE,//duration - detect/see hidden enemies
FP_STUN,//instant
FP_HATE,//instant
FP_CONTROLMIND,//instant
FP_FREEZE,//istant
FP_FEAR,//instant
NUM_FORCE_POWERS
} forcePowers_t;
Add your new power at the end of the list, how i did with my new force staff.
Now scroll down q_shared and find this:
typedef enum
{
GENCMD_FORCE_HEAL = 1,
GENCMD_FORCE_SPEED,
GENCMD_FORCE_THROW,
GENCMD_FORCE_PULL,
GENCMD_FORCE_DISTRACT,
GENCMD_FORCE_GRIP,
GENCMD_FORCE_LIGHTNING,
GENCMD_FORCE_RAGE,
GENCMD_FORCE_PROTECT,
GENCMD_FORCE_ABSORB,
GENCMD_FORCE_DRAIN,
GENCMD_FORCE_SEEING,
GENCMD_FORCE_STUN,
GENCMD_FORCE_HATE,
GENCMD_FORCE_CONTROLMIND,
GENCMD_FORCE_FREEZE,
GENCMD_FORCE_FEAR,
} genCmds_t;
gencmd is necessary for assign key button to use the force powers. You need to add a definition for your new force power here related this.
So for q_shared. You’are okay.
Now go to g_active.cpp and add the external void definition for the function of your new powers here, upon the genericcmd switch.
extern void ForceGrip(gentity_t *ent); extern void ForceLightning(gentity_t *ent); extern void ForceProtect(gentity_t *ent); extern void ForceRage(gentity_t *ent); extern void ForceSeeing(gentity_t *ent); extern void ForceTelepathy(gentity_t *ent); extern void ForceStun(gentity_t *ent); extern void ForceHate(gentity_t *ent); extern void ForceControlMind(gentity_t *ent); extern void ForceFreeze(gentity_t *ent); extern void ForceFear(gentity_t *ent); extern void ForceAbsorb(gentity_t *ent); extern void ForceHeal(gentity_t *ent);
as you see i added the mine.
Now scroll down and you found immediatly
This switch, when you can assign to every command the function of his respective power.
static void ProcessGenericCmd(gentity_t *ent, byte cmd)
{
switch(cmd)
{
case 0:
break;
case GENCMD_FORCE_DRAIN:
ForceDrain2(ent);
break;
case GENCMD_FORCE_THROW:
ForceThrow(ent, qfalse);
break;
case GENCMD_FORCE_SPEED:
ForceSpeed(ent);
break;
case GENCMD_FORCE_PULL:
ForceThrow(ent, qtrue);
break;
case GENCMD_FORCE_DISTRACT:
ForceTelepathy(ent);
break;
case GENCMD_FORCE_CONTROLMIND:
ForceControlMind(ent);
break;
case GENCMD_FORCE_FEAR:
ForceFear(ent);
break;
case GENCMD_FORCE_STUN:
ForceStun(ent);
break;
case GENCMD_FORCE_HATE:
ForceHate(ent);
break;
case GENCMD_FORCE_GRIP:
ForceGrip(ent);
case GENCMD_FORCE_FREEZE:
ForceFreeze(ent);
break;
case GENCMD_FORCE_LIGHTNING:
ForceLightning(ent);
break;
case GENCMD_FORCE_RAGE:
ForceRage(ent);
break;
case GENCMD_FORCE_PROTECT:
ForceProtect(ent);
break;
case GENCMD_FORCE_ABSORB:ForceAbsorb(ent);
break;
case GENCMD_FORCE_SEEING:
ForceSeeing(ent);
break;
case GENCMD_FORCE_HEAL:
ForceHeal(ent);
break;
}
}
under every case, you need to add the void function of the power is called by the command.
Okay, now we need to add force power as item available, exactly how we did with the weapons:
Go to g_itemload.cpp and after the weapon qstrimp tags you will found the force power tags. Add the new power in that mode:
else if (!Q_stricmp(tokenStr,"FP_HEAL"))
{
tag = FP_HEAL;
}
else if (!Q_stricmp(tokenStr,"FP_LEVITATION"))
{
tag = FP_LEVITATION;
}
else if (!Q_stricmp(tokenStr,"FP_SPEED"))
{
tag = FP_SPEED;
}
else if (!Q_stricmp(tokenStr,"FP_PUSH"))
{
tag = FP_PUSH;
}
else if (!Q_stricmp(tokenStr,"FP_PULL"))
{
tag = FP_PULL;
}
else if (!Q_stricmp(tokenStr,"FP_TELEPATHY"))
{
tag = FP_TELEPATHY;
}
else if (!Q_stricmp(tokenStr,"FP_SABERTHROW"))
{
tag = FP_SABERTHROW;
}
else if (!Q_stricmp(tokenStr,"FP_STUN"))
{
tag = FP_STUN;
}
else if (!Q_stricmp(tokenStr,"FP_HATE"))
{
tag = FP_HATE;
}
else if (!Q_stricmp(tokenStr,"FP_CONTROLMIND"))
{
tag = FP_CONTROLMIND;
}
else if (!Q_stricmp(tokenStr,"FP_FREEZE"))
{
tag = FP_FREEZE;
}
else if (!Q_stricmp(tokenStr,"FP_FEAR"))
{
tag = FP_FEAR;
}
else if (!Q_stricmp(tokenStr,"FP_LIGHTNING"))
{
tag = FP_LIGHTNING;
}
else if (!Q_stricmp(tokenStr,"FP_SABERTHROW"))
{
tag = FP_SABERTHROW;
}
else if (!Q_stricmp(tokenStr,"ITM_BATTERY_PICKUP"))
{
tag = ITM_BATTERY_PICKUP;
}
as you can see i added tags for the my new force powers.
Now... if you wanna that your power can be used with icarus scripting, you need to make some editing.
Go to q3_interface.h and add into the set list the new icarus command for your new force powers.

But adding string voice is unuseful if you will not program also WHAT do this voice when they are executed on scripts. So you need to set this on Q3_INTERFACE.CPP
You need to add here:

Exactly how i did. Well done. Now your force powers are available with scripts. And engine will recognize that need to execute a force power or assign a power level to a new force power with Icarus, if you need to make a huge mod with maps and scripts, this can be useful.
Now... it’s turn of Npcs. You want NPCS can use your force power so you can make enemy sith that attack you with these new ability? So you need to add as NPC command. You can make this on NPCs_stats.cpp
stringID_table_t FPTable[] = {
ENUM2STRING(FP_HEAL),
ENUM2STRING(FP_LEVITATION),
ENUM2STRING(FP_SPEED),
ENUM2STRING(FP_PUSH),
ENUM2STRING(FP_PULL),
ENUM2STRING(FP_TELEPATHY),
ENUM2STRING(FP_GRIP),
ENUM2STRING(FP_LIGHTNING),
ENUM2STRING(FP_SABERTHROW),
ENUM2STRING(FP_SABER_DEFENSE),
ENUM2STRING(FP_SABER_OFFENSE),
//new Jedi Academy powers
ENUM2STRING(FP_RAGE),
ENUM2STRING(FP_PROTECT),
ENUM2STRING(FP_ABSORB),
ENUM2STRING(FP_DRAIN),
ENUM2STRING(FP_SEE),
ENUM2STRING(FP_STUN),
ENUM2STRING(FP_HATE),
ENUM2STRING(FP_CONTROLMIND),
ENUM2STRING(FP_FREEZE),
ENUM2STRING(FP_FEAR),
{
"",
-1
}
};
Now... the menu interface related to force power. If you they appears in your custom menu when your SP mission are completed, you need to add the new power on g_target.cpp
On:
void set_mission_stats_cvars(void) {
char text[1024] = {
0
}; //we'll assume that the activator is the player
gclient_t *
const client = & level.clients[0];
if (!client) {
return;
}
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_enemieskilled", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.enemiesKilled)); //pass this on to the menu
if (cg_entities[0].gent - > client - > sess.missionStats.totalSecrets) {
cgi_SP_GetStringTextString("SP_INGAME_SECRETAREAS_OF", text, sizeof(text));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_secretsfound", va("%d %s %d", cg_entities[0].gent - > client - > sess.missionStats.secretsFound, text, cg_entities[0].gent - > client - > sess.missionStats.totalSecrets));
} else
// Setting ui_stats_secretsfound to 0 will hide the text on screen
{
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_secretsfound", "0");
} // Find the favorite weapon
int wpn = 0, i;
int max_wpn = cg_entities[0].gent - > client - > sess.missionStats.weaponUsed[0];
for (i = 1; i < WP_NUM_WEAPONS; i++) {
if (cg_entities[0].gent - > client - > sess.missionStats.weaponUsed[i] > max_wpn) {
max_wpn = cg_entities[0].gent - > client - > sess.missionStats.weaponUsed[i];
wpn = i;
}
}
if (wpn) {
gitem_t * wItem = FindItemForWeapon((weapon_t) wpn);
cgi_SP_GetStringTextString(va("SP_INGAME_%s", wItem - > classname), text, sizeof(text));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_fave", va("%s", text)); //pass this on to the menu
}
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_shots", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.shotsFired)); //pass this on to the menu
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_hits", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.hits)); //pass this on to the menu
const float percent = cg_entities[0].gent - > client - > sess.missionStats.shotsFired ? 100.0 f * (float) cg_entities[0].gent - > client - > sess.missionStats.hits / cg_entities[0].gent - > client - > sess.missionStats.shotsFired : 0;
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_accuracy", va("%.2f%%", percent));
/pass this on to the menugi.cvar_set("ui_stats_thrown", va("%d",client->sess.missionStats.saberThrownCnt)); // pass this on to the menu
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_blocks", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.saberBlocksCnt));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_legattacks", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.legAttacksCnt));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_armattacks", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.armAttacksCnt));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_bodyattacks", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.torsoAttacksCnt));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_absorb", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_ABSORB]));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_heal", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_HEAL]));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_mindtrick", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_TELEPATHY]));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_protect", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_PROTECT]));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_jump", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_LEVITATION]));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_pull", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_PULL]));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_push", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_PUSH]));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_sense", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_SEE]));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_speed", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_SPEED]));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_defense", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_SABER_DEFENSE]));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_offense", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_SABER_OFFENSE]));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_throw", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_SABERTHROW]));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_drain", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_DRAIN]));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_grip", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_GRIP]));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_lightning", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_LIGHTNING]));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_rage", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_RAGE]));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_stun", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_STUN]));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_hate", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_HATE]));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_controlmind", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_CONTROLMIND]));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_incapacitate", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_FREEZE]));
gi.cvar_set("ui_stats_fear", va("%d", client - > sess.missionStats.forceUsed[FP_FEAR]));
}
As you can see, these programs the stats for ingamemissionselect menu.
Now... the consolle command.
Into the game cheats, you can add powers with setforceall (force power value)
And with command like setforceprotect 3 (add force protect level 3, remember?)
Sure you will know these cheats. They are important because you need to call the power into the consolle and assign to your jedi for test it on game when you will work on that.
For force stun, i wrote this special static void:
The file to edit is: g_svcmds.cpp
static void Svcmd_ForceStun_f(void) {
if (! & g_entities[0] || !g_entities[0].client) {
return;
}
if (!g_cheats - > integer) {
gi.SendServerCommand(0, "print \"Cheats are not enabled on this server.\n\"");
return;
}
const char * newVal = gi.argv(1);
if (!VALIDSTRING(newVal)) {
gi.Printf("Current stun level is %d\n", g_entities[0].client - > ps.forcePowerLevel[FP_STUN]);
gi.Printf("Usage: stun <level> (1 - 3)\n");
return;
}
int val = atoi(newVal);
if (val > FORCE_LEVEL_0) {
g_entities[0].client - > ps.forcePowersKnown |= (1 << FP_STUN);
} else {
g_entities[0].client - > ps.forcePowersKnown &= ~(1 << FP_STUN);
}
g_entities[0].client - > ps.forcePowerLevel[FP_STUN] = val;
if (g_entities[0].client - > ps.forcePowerLevel[FP_STUN] < FORCE_LEVEL_0) {
g_entities[0].client - > ps.forcePowerLevel[FP_STUN] = FORCE_LEVEL_0;
} else if (g_entities[0].client - > ps.forcePowerLevel[FP_STUN] > FORCE_LEVEL_4) {
g_entities[0].client - > ps.forcePowerLevel[FP_STUN] = FORCE_LEVEL_4;
}
}
this will program your server command. For making it available and create something like setforcestun and give you the power with the setforceall cheat, you need to add also these strings:
locate this
/*=================ConsoleCommand/ these are added in cg_main, CG_Init so they tab-complete=================*/
down add into the if case lists:
if ( Q_stricmp( cmd, "setForceStun" ) == 0 ){Svcmd_ForceStun_f();return qtrue;}
add also about the command setforceall:
if (Q_stricmp(cmd, "setForceAll") == 0) {
if (!g_cheats - > integer) {
gi.SendServerCommand(0, "print \"Cheats are not enabled on this server.\n\"");
return qfalse;
}
Svcmd_ForceJump_f();
Svcmd_SaberThrow_f();
Svcmd_ForceHeal_f();
Svcmd_ForcePush_f();
Svcmd_ForcePull_f();
Svcmd_ForceSpeed_f();
Svcmd_ForceGrip_f();
Svcmd_ForceLightning_f();
Svcmd_MindTrick_f();
Svcmd_ForceStun_f();
Svcmd_ForceHate_f();
Svcmd_ControlMind_f();
Svcmd_ForceFreeze_f();
Svcmd_ForceFear_f();
Svcmd_SaberDefense_f();
Svcmd_SaberOffense_f();
Svcmd_ForceSetLevel_f(FP_RAGE);
Svcmd_ForceSetLevel_f(FP_DRAIN);
Svcmd_ForceSetLevel_f(FP_PROTECT);
Svcmd_ForceSetLevel_f(FP_ABSORB);
Svcmd_ForceSetLevel_f(FP_SEE);
for (int i = SS_NONE + 1; i < SS_NUM_SABER_STYLES; i++) {
g_entities[0].client - > ps.saberStylesKnown |= (1 << i);
}
return qtrue;
}
well! Now you got consolle command about your new powers for debug when you will test against NPCs during programming.
Now... well Now it’s time to define the new force power icon path of the your new force powers.
You can do these on cg_main.cpp. go on void cg_init
void CG_Init(int serverCommandSequence) {
cgs.serverCommandSequence = serverCommandSequence;
cgi_Cvar_Set("cg_drawHUD", "1"); // fonts...
//
cgs.media.charsetShader = cgi_R_RegisterShaderNoMip("gfx/2d/charsgrid_med");
cgs.media.qhFontSmall = cgi_R_RegisterFont("ocr_a");
cgs.media.qhFontMedium = cgi_R_RegisterFont("ergoec");
cgs.media.whiteShader = cgi_R_RegisterShader("white");
cgs.media.loadTick = cgi_R_RegisterShaderNoMip("gfx/hud/load_tick");
cgs.media.loadTickCap = cgi_R_RegisterShaderNoMip("gfx/hud/load_tick_cap");
const char * force_icon_files[NUM_FORCE_POWERS] = { //icons matching enums forcePowers_t
"gfx/mp/f_icon_lt_heal", //FP_HEAL,
"gfx/mp/f_icon_levitation", //FP_LEVITATION,
"gfx/mp/f_icon_speed", //FP_SPEED,
"gfx/mp/f_icon_push", //FP_PUSH,
"gfx/mp/f_icon_pull", //FP_PULL,
"gfx/mp/f_icon_lt_telepathy", //FP_TELEPATHY,
"gfx/mp/f_icon_dk_grip", //FP_GRIP,
"gfx/mp/f_icon_dk_l1", //FP_LIGHTNING,
"gfx/mp/f_icon_saber_throw", //FP_SABERTHROW
"gfx/mp/f_icon_saber_defend", //FP_SABERDEFEND,
"gfx/mp/f_icon_saber_attack", //FP_SABERATTACK,
"gfx/mp/f_icon_dk_rage", //FP_RAGE,
"gfx/mp/f_icon_lt_protect", //FP_PROTECT,
"gfx/mp/f_icon_lt_absorb", //FP_ABSORB,
"gfx/mp/f_icon_dk_drain", //FP_DRAIN,
"gfx/mp/f_icon_sight", //FP_SEE,
"gfx/mp/f_icon_stun", //FP_STUN
"gfx/mp/f_icon_hate", //FP_HATE
"gfx/mp/f_icon_controlmind", //FP_CONTROLMIND
"gfx/mp/f_icon_incapacitate", //FP_INCAPACITATE
"gfx/mp/f_icon_fear", //FP_FEAR};
as you can see i added the mine. VERY important: the icon need to match exactly the enumeration of force power we did at the start of this tutorial on Q_shared list.
Now go to int showpowers and add your new powers here.
int showPowers[MAX_SHOWPOWERS] = {
FP_ABSORB,
FP_HEAL,
FP_PROTECT,
FP_TELEPATHY,
FP_SPEED,
FP_PUSH,
FP_PULL,
FP_SEE,
FP_DRAIN,
FP_LIGHTNING,
FP_RAGE,
FP_GRIP,
FP_STUN,
FP_HATE,
FP_CONTROLMIND,
FP_FREEZE,
FP_FEAR,
};
at the end of the list. This will show the new force power icons when you scroll the force icon menu on HUD.
Now it’s time to set a name for your power. When you select an icon of aforce power in game, appear the name of the power in yellow. Remember?
You can add the strings with the name of your powers here:
const char * showPowersName[MAX_SHOWPOWERS] = {
"SP_INGAME_ABSORB2",
"SP_INGAME_HEAL2",
"SP_INGAME_PROTECT2",
"SP_INGAME_MINDTRICK2",
"SP_INGAME_SPEED2",
"SP_INGAME_PUSH2",
"SP_INGAME_PULL2",
"SP_INGAME_SEEING2",
"SP_INGAME_DRAIN2",
"SP_INGAME_LIGHTNING2",
"SP_INGAME_DARK_RAGE2",
"SP_INGAME_GRIP2",
"SP_INGAME_STUN2",
"SP_INGAME_HATE2",
"SP_INGAME_CONTROLMIND2",
"SP_INGAME_FREEZE2",
"SP_INGAME_FEAR2",
};
This list need to merge with the show powers list. It’s IMPORTANT.
Now… when you open datapad, you can get a descritpion of each force power and also information about the power level you get into your mission. You can set this chars description here:
const char * forcepowerDesc[NUM_FORCE_POWERS] = {
"FORCE_ABSORB_DESC",
"FORCE_HEAL_DESC",
"FORCE_PROTECT_DESC",
"FORCE_MIND_TRICK_DESC",
"FORCE_STUN_DESC",
"FORCE_JUMP_DESC",
"FORCE_SPEED_DESC",
"FORCE_PUSH_DESC",
"FORCE_PULL_DESC",
"FORCE_SABER_THROW_DESC",
"FORCE_SABER_DEFENSE_DESC",
"FORCE_SABER_OFFENSE_DESC",
"FORCE_SENSE_DESC",
"FORCE_FREEZE_DESC",
"FORCE_DRAIN_DESC",
"FORCE_LIGHTNING_DESC",
"FORCE_RAGE_DESC",
"FORCE_GRIP_DESC",
"FORCE_HATE_DESC",
"FORCE_CONTROLMIND_DESC",
"FORCE_FEAR_DESC",
};
add the voice for the chars descrition of your new powers-
Now, you need to make the same thing for other 3 lists, the force power level list strings:
const char * forcepowerLvl1Desc[NUM_FORCE_POWERS] = {
"FORCE_ABSORB_LVL1_DESC",
"FORCE_HEAL_LVL1_DESC",
"FORCE_PROTECT_LVL1_DESC",
"FORCE_MIND_TRICK_LVL1_DESC",
"FORCE_JUMP_LVL1_DESC",
"FORCE_SPEED_LVL1_DESC",
"FORCE_PUSH_LVL1_DESC",
"FORCE_PULL_LVL1_DESC",
"FORCE_SABER_THROW_LVL1_DESC",
"FORCE_SABER_DEFENSE_LVL1_DESC",
"FORCE_SABER_OFFENSE_LVL1_DESC",
"FORCE_SENSE_LVL1_DESC",
"FORCE_DRAIN_LVL1_DESC",
"FORCE_LIGHTNING_LVL1_DESC",
"FORCE_RAGE_LVL1_DESC",
"FORCE_GRIP_LVL1_DESC",
"FORCE_STUN_LVL1_DESC",
"FORCE_HATE_LVL1_DESC",
"FORCE_CONTROLMIND_LVL1_DESC",
"FORCE_FREEZE_LVL1_DESC",
"FORCE_FEAR_LVL1_DESC",
};
const char * forcepowerLvl2Desc[NUM_FORCE_POWERS] = {
"FORCE_ABSORB_LVL2_DESC",
"FORCE_HEAL_LVL2_DESC",
"FORCE_PROTECT_LVL2_DESC",
"FORCE_MIND_TRICK_LVL2_DESC",
"FORCE_JUMP_LVL2_DESC",
"FORCE_SPEED_LVL2_DESC",
"FORCE_PUSH_LVL2_DESC",
"FORCE_PULL_LVL2_DESC",
"FORCE_SABER_THROW_LVL2_DESC",
"FORCE_SABER_DEFENSE_LVL2_DESC",
"FORCE_SABER_OFFENSE_LVL2_DESC",
"FORCE_SENSE_LVL2_DESC",
"FORCE_DRAIN_LVL2_DESC",
"FORCE_LIGHTNING_LVL2_DESC",
"FORCE_RAGE_LVL2_DESC",
"FORCE_GRIP_LVL2_DESC",
"FORCE_STUN_LVL2_DESC",
"FORCE_HATE_LVL2_DESC",
"FORCE_CONTROLMIND_LVL2_DESC",
"FORCE_FREEZE_LVL2_DESC",
"FORCE_FEAR_LVL2_DESC",
};
const char * forcepowerLvl3Desc[NUM_FORCE_POWERS] = {
"FORCE_ABSORB_LVL3_DESC",
"FORCE_HEAL_LVL3_DESC",
"FORCE_PROTECT_LVL3_DESC",
"FORCE_MIND_TRICK_LVL3_DESC",
"FORCE_JUMP_LVL3_DESC",
"FORCE_SPEED_LVL3_DESC",
"FORCE_PUSH_LVL3_DESC",
"FORCE_PULL_LVL3_DESC",
"FORCE_SABER_THROW_LVL3_DESC",
"FORCE_SABER_DEFENSE_LVL3_DESC",
"FORCE_SABER_OFFENSE_LVL3_DESC",
"FORCE_SENSE_LVL3_DESC",
"FORCE_DRAIN_LVL3_DESC",
"FORCE_LIGHTNING_LVL3_DESC",
"FORCE_RAGE_LVL3_DESC",
"FORCE_GRIP_LVL3_DESC",
"FORCE_STUN_LVL3_DESC",
"FORCE_HATE_LVL3_DESC",
"FORCE_CONTROLMIND_LVL3_DESC",
"FORCE_FREEZE_LVL3_DESC",
"FORCE_FEAR_LVL3_DESC",
};
so you got description for all the 3 levels of your powers! 
Now it’s time to add a last thing and we end with this file:
// Keep these with groups light side, core, and dark side
int showDataPadPowers[MAX_DPSHOWPOWERS] = {
// Light side
FP_ABSORB,
FP_HEAL,
FP_PROTECT,
FP_TELEPATHY,
FP_STUN,
// Core Powers
FP_LEVITATION,
FP_SPEED,
FP_PUSH,
FP_PULL,
FP_SABERTHROW,
FP_SABER_DEFENSE,
FP_SABER_OFFENSE,
FP_SEE,
FP_FREEZE,
//Dark Side
FP_DRAIN,
FP_LIGHTNING,
FP_RAGE,
FP_GRIP,
FP_HATE,
FP_CONTROLMIND,
FP_FEAR,
};
that’s will show the powers into the your datapad. Respect the list enumeration for show the light side, dark side and core powers. In my case, hate, fear and controlmind are power of dark side, freeze is neutral, and stun is a light side power.
One last thing and we end with menus staff:
Open cg_info.cpp and add your power in this char array.
Remember: you need to put into the SAME ORDER of enumeration of q_shared forcepowers_t.
const char * showLoadPowersName[] = {
"SP_INGAME_HEAL2",
"SP_INGAME_JUMP2",
"SP_INGAME_SPEED2",
"SP_INGAME_PUSH2",
"SP_INGAME_PULL2",
"SP_INGAME_MINDTRICK2",
"SP_INGAME_GRIP2",
"SP_INGAME_LIGHTNING2",
"SP_INGAME_SABER_THROW2",
"SP_INGAME_SABER_OFFENSE2",
"SP_INGAME_SABER_DEFENSE2",
"SP_INGAME_STUN2",
"SP_INGAME_HATE2",
"SP_INGAME_CONTROLMIND2",
"SP_INGAME_INCAPACITATE2",
"SP_INGAME_FEAR2",
NULL,
};
Okay, now we need to add some other stuff.
Wait a moment, before dream of become a jedi. We are missing a thing.
If you build now your SP dll and exe, you will notice something really bad: it’s possible that your HUD will crash when you scroll the new power icon.
But why? Because there is a limitation related to the max number of power that can be showed into HUD and datapad.
If you go here:
int showDataPadPowers[MAX_DPSHOWPOWERS]
and here:
const char *showPowersName[MAX_SHOWPOWERS] =
you can see there are called two definition. MAX_DPSHOWPOWERS define the maximum amount of force power that show the Datapad menu. MAX_SHOWPOWERS instead, the max amount drawed into HUD. You can change this amount until the value of 32.
Go to cg_local.h
And find this definition:
#define MAX_SHOWPOWERS 12e xtern int showPowers[MAX_SHOWPOWERS]; extern const char * showPowersName[MAX_SHOWPOWERS]; extern int force_icons[NUM_FORCE_POWERS]; #define MAX_DPSHOWPOWERS 16
now ask to you... how many force power you added into your mod? Well, you need to add the answer to the MAX values. In my case, because i added 5 new force powers. (stun, freeze, fear, controlmind and hate) i need to change 12 to 17 and 16 to 21.
And so i get:
#define MAX_SHOWPOWERS 17extern int showPowers[MAX_SHOWPOWERS]; extern const char *showPowersName[MAX_SHOWPOWERS]; extern int force_icons[NUM_FORCE_POWERS]; #define MAX_DPSHOWPOWERS 21
17 is now the number of maximum force power can display my HUD.
21 is the maximun force power displayed of my datapad related to force power description.
Now we have and with all interface and description and hud staff related to force powers.
Let pass to second step: programming the force power.
Your force power get icon and hud description, but again it’s incomplete. Maybe you can see into HUD, and select, or you can give with consolle to your jedi or assign a power level, but it will not work. Is just passive.
So you need know to build the true functionality of your new force power.
For first thing, we need to tell to the code this: when you activate a force power with “f” key, after you selected the power into your menu or hud, the jedi need to cast the power, right? This istruction is envolved here.
Open Bg_misc.cpp and find void PM_CheckForceUseButton( gentity_t *ent, usercmd_t *ucmd ) function.
You will see a switch.
Into the swith there are various case.
When you press F key with one of these power selected, each power run the specific function of the power.
You need into the cases your new force powers.
In my case, i add this:
if (!(ent - > client - > ps.pm_flags & PMF_USEFORCE_HELD)) { //impulse one shot
switch (showPowers[cg.forcepowerSelect]) {
case FP_HEAL:
ForceHeal(ent);
break;
case FP_SPEED:
ForceSpeed(ent);
break;
case FP_PUSH:
ForceThrow(ent, qfalse);
break;
case FP_PULL:
ForceThrow(ent, qtrue);
break;
case FP_TELEPATHY:
ForceTelepathy(ent);
break;
case FP_STUN:
ForceStun(ent);
break;
case FP_HATE:
ForceHate(ent);
break;
case FP_CONTROLMIND:
ForceControlMind(ent);
break;
case FP_FREEZE:
ForceFreeze(ent);
break;
case FP_FEAR:
ForceFear(ent);
break; // Added 01/20/03 by AReis.
// New Jedi Academy powers.
case FP_RAGE: //duration - speed, invincibility and extra damage for short period, drains your health and leaves you weak and slow afterwards.
ForceRage(ent);
break;
case FP_PROTECT: //duration - protect against physical/energy (level 1 stops blaster/energy bolts, level 2 stops projectiles, level 3 protects against explosions)
ForceProtect(ent);
break;
case FP_ABSORB: //duration - protect against dark force powers (grip, lightning, drain - maybe push/pull, too?)
ForceAbsorb(ent);
break;
case FP_SEE: //duration - detect/see hidden enemies
ForceSeeing(ent);
break;
}
}
And so, when i select my power, and i press “f” engine run the force power function.
Now we need just a last thing... Write the functions! 
And THAT’S is the hardest part, men. I hope you are expert coder and you know good the JKA engine source code.
If you’ll not, at max you can copy \ paste an existing power and simply edit its values. Not really a scientific approach, right?
Well, we shall continue now.
Open WP_SABER.cpp. It’s time to end our task.
At line 172 you will found an array.
This array define the alignment of your force power. They are light side, dark side or neutral core power?
Add add the end of the array your new force power. Important: you need to respect the NUM_FORCE_POWER enumeration stored into q_shared.h
int forcePowerDarkLight[NUM_FORCE_POWERS] = /0 == neutral{ / / nothing should be usable at rank 0
FORCE_LIGHTSIDE, //FP_HEAL,//instant
0, //FP_LEVITATION,//hold/duration
0, //FP_SPEED,//duration
0, //FP_PUSH,//hold/duration
0, //FP_PULL,//hold/duration
FORCE_LIGHTSIDE, //FP_TELEPATHY,//instant
FORCE_DARKSIDE, /FP_GRIP,/ / hold / duration
FORCE_DARKSIDE, //FP_LIGHTNING,//hold/duration
0, //FP_SABERATTACK,
0, //FP_SABERDEFEND,
0, //FP_SABERTHROW,
//new Jedi Academy powers
FORCE_DARKSIDE, //FP_RAGE,//duration
FORCE_LIGHTSIDE, //FP_PROTECT,//duration
FORCE_LIGHTSIDE, //FP_ABSORB,//duration
FORCE_DARKSIDE, //FP_DRAIN,//hold/duration
0, //FP_SEE,//duration
FORCE_LIGHTSIDE, //FP_STUN,//duration
FORCE_DARKSIDE, //FP_HATE,//duration
FORCE_DARKSIDE, //FP_CONTROLMIND,//duration
0, //FP_FREEZE,//hold/duration/NUM_FORCE_POWERS
FORCE_DARKSIDE, //FP_FEAR,//duration};
if the power is a light side power, put FORCE_LIGHTSIDE, if is a Dark power, FORCE_DARKSIDE, if is a core \ neutral power, put 0.
Now scroll below and you can found int forcePowerNeeded[NUM_FORCE_POWERS] =
This set how many force power point need your power for be casted.
So you can set here the values.
REMEMBER: respect the enumeration of q_share NUM_FORCE_POWERS value!
int forcePowerNeeded[NUM_FORCE_POWERS] = {
0, //FP_HEAL,//instant
10, //FP_LEVITATION,//hold/duration
50, //FP_SPEED,//duration
15, //FP_PUSH,//hold/duration
15, //FP_PULL,/hold/duration
20, //FP_TELEPATHY,//instant
1, //FP_GRIP,//hold/duration - FIXME: 30?
1, //FP_LIGHTNING,/hold/duration
20, //FP_SABERTHROW,
1, //FP_SABER_DEFENSE,
0, //FP_SABER_OFFENSE,
//new Jedi Academy powers
50, //FP_RAGE,//duration - speed, invincibility and extra damage for short period, drains your health and leaves you weak and slow afterwards.
30, //FP_PROTECT,//duration - protect against physical/energy (level 1 stops blaster/energy bolts, level 2 stops projectiles, level 3 protects against explosions)
30, //FP_ABSORB,/duration - protect against dark force powers (grip, lightning, drain)
1, //FP_DRAIN,//hold/duration - drain force power for health
20, //FP_SEE,//duration - detect/see hidden enemies
20, //FP_STUN
30, //INSPIREHATE
40, //CONTROLMIND
50, //INCAPACITATE
30, //FEAR/NUM_FORCE_POWERS};
Now, go down and you can find a large amount of float and int value. Depending about WHAT your power does, you need to add a float or int value in this fields.
My powers are focused on stun, anger, lock, fear and control the enemy so in my case i added int value, related about the duration of time in millisecond of the force power efx.
Below mindtrick time i added:
int mindTrickTime[NUM_FORCE_POWER_LEVELS] = {
0, //none
10000, //5000,
15000, //10000,
30000 //15000};int StunTime[NUM_FORCE_POWER_LEVELS] ={0,//none
10000, //5000,
20000, //10000,
30000 //15000};int HateTime[NUM_FORCE_POWER_LEVELS] ={0,//none
10000, //5000,
20000, //10000,
30000 //15000};int ControlMindTime[NUM_FORCE_POWER_LEVELS] ={0,//none
60000, //5000,
120000, //10000,
300000 //15000};int FreezeTime[NUM_FORCE_POWER_LEVELS] ={0,//none
10000, //5000,
15000, //10000,
20000 //15000};int FearTime[NUM_FORCE_POWER_LEVELS] ={0,//none
10000, //5000,
20000, //10000,
30000 //15000};
as first value you need to put 0 because is the duration of force power at level 0. no power, no duration.
The other value are related to the duration of force power at level 1 , 2 and 3 of the force.
As you can see: freeze at level one during ten second, at level 2 15, at level three, 20 second. Fear ten, twenty and thirty second, controlmind 1 minut, 2 minut and 5 minutes at level 3. (control an enemy for an entire map area basically XD, so the NPC can reach and activate switchs many far by player position before control expiring.)
Now you will see a loooong serious of void and other parameters. There all related to lightsabers. But if you go down until line 8800 will begin the void related to the force powers.
/OTHER JEDI POWERS=========================================================================

/OTHER JEDI POWERS=========================================================================
/OTHER JEDI POWERS=========================================================================
/OTHER JEDI POWERS=========================================================================
And now, well, you need to make a void about YOUR power. And programming it! That’s depend only by you, i cannot help you. I suggest you for deep study each force power code function for understand how works any force power in every part of its effect. As i told at begin of tutorial, some powers function are also into cg_players.cpp (protect, absorb and seeing aura, lightning and draind visual effect) here are setted the efx, sound and functions of grip, mindtrick, push, pull, rage and heal... and, obviously, also of the lightning, drain, protect and absorb.
I will show you as example my force controlmind code. It’s a gift.
So you will understand exactly what you weel need to do. And also, if you want, you can begin your path into the coding force with a cool power. This power will allow you to control your enemies for a LONG time as mindtrick level 4. basically.
You can esc with jump key or you can wait expiration of power. Enemy will not attack you and you cannot damage other enemies. (it’s not correct 
)

THIS is the key for the possession:
G_SetViewEntity( self, traceEnt );
This function change your point of view with the NPC you affected with power.
TraceEnt is the function that allow you to slam your force power against your foe.
A power with traceent, hit NPCs and other clients. A power with self, instead is casted on the player and the jedi. Understood?
At the start of my power code there is this function:
WP_CheckBreakControlMind
This control the camera, exaclty as the WP_Checkbreakcontrol of mindtrick.
You can found wp_cheackbreakcontrol upon void forcetelepathy code.
Here the original:
boolean WP_CheckBreakControl(gentity_t * self) {
if (!self) {
return qfalse;
}
if (!self - > s.number) { //player
if (self - > client && self - > client - > ps.forcePowerLevel[FP_TELEPATHY] > FORCE_LEVEL_3) { //control-level
if (self - > client - > ps.viewEntity > 0 && self - > client - > ps.viewEntity < ENTITYNUM_WORLD) { //we are in a viewentity
gentity_t * controlled = & g_entities[self - > client - > ps.viewEntity];
if (controlled - > NPC && controlled - > NPC - > controlledTime > level.time) { //it is an NPC we controlled
//clear it and return
G_ClearViewEntity(self);
return qtrue;
}
}
}
} else { //NPC
if (self - > NPC && self - > NPC - > controlledTime > level.time) { //being controlled
gentity_t * controller = & g_entities[0];
if (controller - > client && controller - > client - > ps.viewEntity == self - > s.number) { //we are being controlled by player
if (controller - > client - > ps.forcePowerLevel[FP_TELEPATHY] > FORCE_LEVEL_3) { //control-level mind trick
//clear the control and return
G_ClearViewEntity(controller);
return qtrue;
}
}
}
}
return qfalse;
}
here my called function:
qboolean WP_CheckBreakControlMind(gentity_t * self) {
if (!self) {
return qfalse;
}
if (!self - > s.number) { //player
if (self - > client && self - > client - > ps.forcePowerLevel[FP_CONTROLMIND] > FORCE_LEVEL_0) { //control-level
if (self - > client - > ps.viewEntity > 0 && self - > client - > ps.viewEntity < ENTITYNUM_WORLD) { //we are in a viewentity
gentity_t * controlled = & g_entities[self - > client - > ps.viewEntity];
if (controlled - > NPC && controlled - > NPC - > controlledTime > level.time) { //it is an NPC we controlled
//clear it and return
G_ClearViewEntity(self);
return qtrue;
}
}
}
} else { //NPC
if (self - > NPC && self - > NPC - > controlledTime > level.time) { //being controlled
gentity_t * controller = & g_entities[0];
if (controller - > client && controller - > client - > ps.viewEntity == self - > s.number) { //we are being controlled by player
if (controller - > client - > ps.forcePowerLevel[FP_CONTROLMIND] > FORCE_LEVEL_0) { //control-level mind trick
//clear the control and return
G_ClearViewEntity(controller);
return qtrue;
}
}
}
}
return qfalse;
}
but this is NOT sufficient. You need also that the Jump key will work for allow you to return into your body. If not, you can stay undefinitley locked into NPC body until he die!
For allow this, you need to go into g_active.cpp and find the ClientThink function.
/*
==================

*/
extern void PM_CheckForceUseButton(gentity_t * ent, usercmd_t * ucmd);
extern qboolean PM_GentCantJump(gentity_t * gent);
extern qboolean PM_WeaponOkOnVehicle(int weapon);
void ClientThink(int clientNum, usercmd_t * ucmd) {
gentity_t * ent;
qboolean restore_ucmd = qfalse;
usercmd_t sav_ucmd = {
0
};
ent = g_entities + clientNum;
if (ent - > s.number < MAX_CLIENTS) {
if (ent - > client - > ps.viewEntity > 0 && ent - > client - > ps.viewEntity < ENTITYNUM_WORLD) { //you're controlling another NPC
gentity_t * controlled = & g_entities[ent - > client - > ps.viewEntity];
qboolean freed = qfalse;
if (controlled - > NPC && controlled - > NPC - > controlledTime && ent - > client - > ps.forcePowerLevel[FP_TELEPATHY] > FORCE_LEVEL_3 ||
controlled - > NPC && controlled - > NPC - > controlledTime && ent - > client - > ps.forcePowerLevel[FP_CONTROLMIND] > FORCE_LEVEL_0) { //An NPC I'm controlling with mind trick
if (controlled - > NPC - > controlledTime < level.time) { //time's up!
G_ClearViewEntity(ent);
freed = qtrue;
}
as you can see, i added the FP_CONTROLMIND to the if definition related this. If the npc is controlled by player, when controlled time value is lesser of leveltime of CONTROLMNIND, camera free the NPC and will return to player body.
else if (controlled - > client //an NPC
&& PM_GentCantJump(controlled) //that cannot jump
&& controlled - > client - > moveType != MT_FLYSWIM) //and does not use upmove to fly
{ //these types use jump to get out
if (ucmd - > upmove > 0) { //jumping gets you out of it FIXME: check some other button instead... like ESCAPE... so you could even have total control over an NPC?
G_ClearViewEntity(ent);
ucmd - > upmove = 0; //ucmd->buttons = 0;
//stop player from doing anything for a half second after
ent - > aimDebounceTime = level.time + 500;
freed = qtrue;
}
}
as you can see, just below is definied this: when player press JUMp button ucmd->upmove > 0 the Npc is released and camera turn back to player.
Now the FP_CONTROLMIND works!
Techniclaly we have end. But making a power like force telepathy,m an istant power, is pretty easy, more difficult is to make an power like grip, heal, rage, or protect. They are more complicated.
I see chunks of code of FP_PROTECT into g_combat.cpp too! Some powers are pretty had to do because they functions are scattered into all the codes. So be careful.
Making a complex force power can be really hard and long, respect at this example. So keep up and get patiente and strenght.
For this, i wanna tell you a last hint.
go to the end of WP_SABER.CPP you can find four voids: WP_forcepowerstart, WP_forcepowerstop, wp_forcepowerrun and wp_checkforcepowers.
These function define special event that happened at the start, the end, the running of force power.
They are all switches and you need to add your power setting into the cases.
In my case i make this:
void WP_ForcePowerStart(gentity_t * self, forcePowers_t forcePower, int overrideAmt) {
int duration = 0;
//FIXME: debounce some of these?
self - > client - > ps.forcePowerDebounce[forcePower] = 0;

At the end, there is also the WP_Initforcepower.
What did it... i am not much sure. I think it setting a preset value of force power level for various force power when you start a map with devmapall command.
If you want to get your new power by the start of a level, you need to add it here, and also with the level value you desire.
void WP_InitForcePowers(gentity_t * ent) {
if (!ent || !ent - > client) {
return;
}
if (!ent - > client - > ps.forcePowerMax) {
ent - > client - > ps.forcePowerMax = FORCE_POWER_MAX;
}
if (!ent - > client - > ps.forcePowerRegenRate) {
ent - > client - > ps.forcePowerRegenRate = 100;
}
ent - > client - > ps.forcePower = ent - > client - > ps.forcePowerMax;
ent - > client - > ps.forcePowerRegenDebounceTime = 0;
ent - > client - > ps.forceGripEntityNum = ent - > client - > ps.forceDrainEntityNum = ent - > client - > ps.pullAttackEntNum = ENTITYNUM_NONE;
ent - > client - > ps.forceRageRecoveryTime = 0;
ent - > client - > ps.forceDrainTime = 0;
ent - > client - > ps.pullAttackTime = 0;
if (ent - > s.number < MAX_CLIENTS) { //player
if (!g_cheats - > integer) //devmaps give you all the FP
{
ent - > client - > ps.forcePowerLevel[FP_SABER_DEFENSE] = FORCE_LEVEL_1;
ent - > client - > ps.forcePowerLevel[FP_SABER_OFFENSE] = FORCE_LEVEL_1;
} else {
ent - > client - > ps.forcePowersKnown = (1 << FP_HEAL) | (1 << FP_LEVITATION) | (1 << FP_SPEED) | (1 << FP_PUSH) | (1 << FP_PULL) | (1 << FP_TELEPATHY) | (1 << FP_GRIP) | (1 << FP_LIGHTNING) | (1 << FP_SABERTHROW) | (1 << FP_SABER_DEFENSE) | (1 << FP_SABER_OFFENSE) | (1 << FP_RAGE) | (1 << FP_DRAIN) | (1 << FP_PROTECT) | (1 << FP_ABSORB) | (1 << FP_SEE);

Well. We have end! Good luck and
May Force be with you. 
Build the openjk_sp.86.dll and jagamex86.dll and have fun with your new power.
