I am not a mapper for JA, I could never figure that stuff out unfortunately, so that is where I may need help from others to make this totally complete. Theres a lot more work I did on this, but everything I did is just editing the assets and the skins/textures/music/effects/weapons themselves, nothing more. Then I redid the music so literally no track repeats like it did in base JA. The only thing I wish was in the original mod was some ruined yavin temple / hangar base from the movie / previous jedi knight games that would connect between two chapters. I want this game to have a solitary and dark feel to it. Jaden must escape from Yavin and confront the Sith Lord to either aid or destroy what is left of the old republic / rebellion and jedi knights. There is no Empire, just remnants, I wanted to replace all the map objects of imperial spaceships with different skins to look like a different faction took over the empire's resources but the skins I made for the ships wouldn't replace the objects in the maps unless I de-compiled then recompiled everything. Thats why theres so many aliens on Yavin. Jaden turned to the dark side from ending of JA, 30 + years later a Sith Lord and his brothers appeared and destroyed much of the New Jedi Order, started siphoning resources from planets and collecting species for slave labor (much like Rakatans). The things I want to change are some of the scripts, and I would like to have someone re-compile all the maps with just some physical changes (like repeating textures) and voiceovers to give the story a little twist. Then I wanted it to be a real sequel to Jedi Academy, the Dark Side ending, making Jaden have ragged clothes much like his re-skin from the novels. Then I wanted to re-introduce something that hasn't been done yet in a star wars game that would be possible here due to the massive number of npcs available with the current scripts, and thats to have it be a total nostalgic trilogy feel because the aliens would be there with much much less of a clone effect. Then it was to give the mod a total Yavin feel to it, either you're in the jungle or in some dark facility underground, but with moderate aesthetic appeal. My first goal was to remove everything prequel-related from the mod. The biggest plot hole is the presence of Rosh, who would be dead if this follows the darkside ending of JA, so he will be replaced, but none of this will be complete without menu overhauls and voiceovers. Raptors with missing animations, will replace those with some other predatory creature. There was a lot of things that didn't fit, like tuskens underground and jawas as well, these are all being replaced. I am only using aliens from the original trilogy and the ancient times (sith species for example) trying not to expand it into prequel territory minus the double-bladed lightsabers The scripts in the menu list some of the species as totally wrong smh, like geonosians are the mutant howler with wings, the umbarans are masked warriors, etc. Will not-windu and not-yoda be replaced? if so, who will take their place? IDK why, but it is especially disappointing and I have no idea why it would do that. I figured out this only happens for some reason on the highest difficulty setting. In the first Jedi Council cutscene, sometimes the cutscene freezes mid conversation between Not-Windu and Not-Yoda. I also narrowed down the cause of a really bad bug. If you plan on overhauling this mod, then good luck to you working around the bugs. There are some instances, like the engine room on the Kel Dor's ship, where it is almost impossible not to crash the game with additional assets. I can confirm that while OpenJK is a definite big help, it's not perfect. I used openJK, a big saber mod and the UltimateWeapons mod and I changed nearly half of all models (both their in game appearance and their display on the menu). This is such a cool little project you've been working on! If you don't intend on finishing it, could you at least possible release whatever custom assets you've added or changed?Īnd if not even that can we still at least get that sexy Yavin skybox?Īlso I did some additional playthroughts with the mod.
