How? What should I type into the console?

just type in helpusobi 1, then use the setforceall 9 and playermodel boba_fett codes. Now if you use force lightning as boba, it should work. If only it were the same w/ the scepter...

Anyway my ping now is 170-250... wot the heck happened ???

I'm very close in removing the dang patch coz I cant do a single thing on my server without lagging..

In a duel i hop and hop.. I used to be able to duel without lag.. now with the patch installed I get an abruptive high ping..

I think this patch needs to be patched. I know it took a few patches for JO back when it was new. But this is getting rediculous.. i cant beat anyone anymore.

Thank you..

I get 3 to 10 fps and 500 to 800 ping on jk2!!
And I still allways come out on top in ctf with 1000 to 2000 points!
SO DONT COMPLAIN!!!!!!!!!

and another thing...
there is NO WAY IN HELL the patch causes that...
ping matters ONLY with the type of internet and the computer speed witch affects fps.

So is that basically the same as ordinary lightning but with the flame visual effect, or is it proper uber-deadly Boba fire?

It is.

Try it if you dont belive me

**SkinWalker** · 11-27-2003, 04:28 PM

A problem I've experienced consistently since installing the patch is that when JA loads, it hangs on the opening screen (the one that has "Jedi Academy..." etc. on it).

I figured out that I can "switch" applications by using the Task Manager, but the TM doesn't come up. I have to do the key strokes from memory.

It's a bit frustrating to say the least.

Has anyone else experienced this? I scanned the thread and didn't see anything even similar. The issue might not even be related to the patch.

I do, however, notice more strange artifacts the the textures in the game now, though.

I'm using a Windows 2000 Professional operating system, btw.

Kidso · 11-28-2003, 02:23 PM

Before the patch I did this and it worked fine but now it screwes up as well as doesnt spawn npcs, when I started the game I was a rancor, lol!!!! Anyone know what the hell is going on? Why don't cheats work, I put in Setforceall 3 and I get all the stances for like 2 seconds and then it goes to blue one handed stance. Any light on these subjects would be greatly appreciated.

Crow_Nest · 11-29-2003, 07:31 AM

bind 2 different keys for changing stances,

Eg. "L" and mousewheeldown.

Thats my bind, so i just have to press "L" and mousewheeldown and i will change

Kidso · 11-29-2003, 06:10 PM

Ok let me get this straight, you have to press two keys at once to switch stances with cheats on? If so that is very stupid, I don't get it Raven why wreck a good thing, leave the damn cheats the way they were, don't **** with things that don't need fixing. There is more then enough stuff that needs fixing without them ****ing with other ****.

**SkinWalker** · 11-30-2003, 07:56 PM

Ahhh... figured out the Startup Screen hang problem.... it was ZoneAlarm. The updated version changed the exe and ZA didn't recognize it.

Removed the old JA MP profile in ZA, then "Add"ed a new one. Problem solved.

I still get video artifacts like the ones in the attachment. More now than before the patch. Does anyone know of a console command to reset graphics while still in the game?

lazoras · 11-30-2003, 09:01 PM

ok i downloaded the patch and i noticed a few things that still have to be fixed and someother things that have been.

i noticed they changed saber blocking and im not sure what they did with blocking saber throw but it seems random now. they still need to fix the bullet problem where the charactor blocks if bullets are shot anywhere around him. thats a problem it should be only when shot at him lol. i dont know if this is a bug or not but i noticed sometimes when i do wall jump i get stuck on the wall (i hate that) . they still havent changed the stegnths of the sabers and theres still alot of ass fighting. i personaly think the sabers should be a little more powerful like they were in JO. i hate having to hit somone 3-5 times when they only have 100/25 hp with the strongest regular attack i have. for instance Red DFA should take all or atleast most of somones HP. standard straight down swing with red should take two full swings. and i noticed if you get too close to somone you dont take any damage. that needs to be fixed. actualy i dont see any new changes in the game so maybe it is a fake. ill see if i can get in contact with somone in raven to talk to them

*Andy867* · 11-30-2003, 11:25 PM

You could always use the saberdamagescale if you want them to be more powerful. Why ask for yet another patch, when pettily stuff like that can be changed by the user. Actually, with the wall jump/grab. it seems to have been changed, and there is more features than what most have even tried, so before bothering Raven again, make sure to try the different gametypes and notice the differences.

If it's a fake it's fooled LucasArts because they have it for download on their own site. ; )

Anyway, the reason you're so confused is because you're expecting gameplay changes (like the JK2 patches), but the vast majority (99%) of the changes in the patch are BUG FIXES and EXPLOIT FIXES, not changes to gameplay.

SirYawnalot · 12-01-2003, 10:37 PM

Yeah, it's like the week-after-release-bug-fix-patch we SHOULD have got. Only they took a lot longer, and added lots of other shibby stuff. And disabled some peoples' cheating ability.

*Kurgan* · 12-02-2003, 02:41 PM

Yes and if you want EXTRA DAMAGE SABERS (like Amidala & I use) try g_saberdamagescale # (Raven suggests 2 or 3 for non Duels, 1 if you like long duels.. I use 2, Amidala uses 5) just like Andy said.

Keep in mind that ever since JK2 1.04 we've had "weak sabers" by default (and oversight designed to appease "movie duelers"). Simply change that number to 2 and it'll be more like how you remember from JK2 out of the box (1.02).

This makes sabers useful weapons in guns games and where you want fast kills instead of slowly dueling each and every person on the server. ; )

Solo4114 · 12-02-2003, 04:14 PM

Hey, Kurgan,

Does the tracesaberfirst 1 thing still work? I'd like to have high blocking, but absolutely LETHAL sabres (which to ME is more like movie fighting -- one of the ways that you know Dooku is a badass with the sabre is that he can simply nick people with it, rather than just cleave limbs. That means he's got SERIOUS control of the sabre).

Also, in the past, when I tried to run a bot game and then enable the damage and blocking stuff, it told me I didn't have permission to do that. What gives? Thanks for the help!

razorace · 12-02-2003, 08:52 PM

It's still in there, but it's a dirty hack to make up for some issues with slower server fps. I wouldn't use it since it will allow saber on saber collisions to occur straight thru bodies.

Solo4114 · 12-02-2003, 11:17 PM

So there's no real way to increase blocking then? Hmm...

Wester547 · 12-03-2003, 02:05 AM

On any computer I have I try to patch jedi academy too, the patch installs fine, I start up the game, and once I have all three saber styles in single player mode with a single saber, I can only browse through all three styles once, because once I try to go from blue to yellow a second time it just reverts back to blue!!!! WTF??? Does anyone else have this problem with v1.01 of JA? It's really annoying, and yes, my comp is running fine, I have all the latest drivers, the specs of my comp are:

P4 2ghz
512MB RAM
Radeon 9500 Pro
SBA Gamer
WinXP Home
Two 40GB HDS
DSL
ETC

What's wrong???

Any ideas??? Please respond! Thanks!!

Crow_Nest · 12-03-2003, 04:27 AM

Everyone has the same problem, but its easy to fix.

Just bind 2 different keys for changing stances.
Eg. "L" and "Mousewheeldown". (Thats what im using)

All i have to do is press "L" and mousewheeldown and i can change stances.

Wester547 · 12-03-2003, 01:57 PM

Hey, thanks man! I'll try it out soon.

Jobie · 12-04-2003, 01:25 PM

Well your right, so thanks for workin that one out.
But its really clumsy, IS there no way to fix it (with bindind maybe?) or with yet another patch?

I love the new roll method. It makes sense.

I'm going to have to go and disagre with you there. It's really not hard at all to roll in any direction from a standing position in real life. I also think it's a little silly to limit that in game as you really can't rollstab "spam" per se considering it saps your force pool. I'm a little tired of games lowering the bottom line so as to make up for a lack of patience and skill.

SpecialForces · 12-12-2003, 03:55 PM

From what I have heard, I dont think any patches will improve gameplay. They just fix bugs. (It can if it fixes an anoying bug)
Mods can.......

YvesRene · 12-17-2003, 01:14 AM

I have a problem with the patch...

When I log onto Multiplayer, the game sometimes crashes and tells me there is a problem. If someone uses the Matrix punch with me, the game crashes and if I try to log onto the FFA2 map, the game crashes. It keeps asking me to send an error report, and I did, but it's becoming a problem. I reinstalled the game to see if it just needed reinstalling and tested everything out without the patch and the game never crashed. I reinstalled the patch and it crashed during the same things. For single player mode, I can't even start a game. As soon as the title screen goes away and they show the ship flying, the game crashes. It has happened each time. When I did it without the patch, the game didn't crash once.

I am running the game on an
AMD Athlon 2800+
256 ram
TNT2 Video Card
Windows XP
and I have 20 gigs of hard drive space.

Help anyone?

The patch made the game worse.

*Kurgan* · 12-17-2003, 03:43 AM

How did it make the game worse?

First it screwed up the stance cycle, it made rolling harder in MP. Removed the rolling stab bug. Not easy to get dismemberent to work.... and more maybe

*Kurgan* · 12-20-2003, 02:54 PM

I agree with you on those, however I still say that it fixed more bugs than it created.

What was the "roll stab bug"? And why is it bad that it was fixed, if it was a "bug"?

Just curious.

DungeonShade · 12-23-2003, 06:12 PM

I just patched my game and whenever I try to join a game it freezes my computer at the browser screen and I have to reboot.

Radeon 9000 Pro
Windows XP

Never had any probs with 1.0 and single player runs fine.

Nuke · 02-10-2004, 08:49 AM

Workaround:

You need to install JKA on the same logical drive (partition) where your windows directory is (usually C

. At least thats how I solved that problem.

This seems to be a bug.

Avitor · 02-10-2004, 11:57 PM

When I first got Jedi Academy I was running a Celeron 1.7GHz, 512MB PC2700, and a PCI GeForce4 420MX all on a Shuttle AS45GT/R mobo. Things got choppy occaisionally but for the most part the game ran well. Due to school I took a couple of months off from playing JA. This past month I rebuilt my machine with a Pentium 4 3.06GHz, 1GB of Corsair XMS PC2700, an Abit IC7 875P chipset mobo, and a Sapphire 256MB Radeon 9600XT. I'm running DirectX 9 and once I installed the game I immediately installed the patch and I haven't had a single problem running the game at the highest graphics levels. I remember hearing about a lot of problems with ATI based cards back before the patch. Have they all been solved?

Crow_Nest · 02-11-2004, 08:42 AM

I think all ATI bugs with the game has been fixed in the patch, but you will still get white flashes if you type "r_atihack" in the console.

It disabled dynamicglow and i got white flashling thingys, and im not using an ATI card.

hgwall44 · 02-23-2004, 10:15 PM

well ive noticed a big thing for me is im losing the occasional duel to a staff when i should have won. I love the single and im getting better with the staff and dual. Also I noticed when i fight the staff with my single i will get easy hits that just go straight threw them sometimes. This is annoying since it could be a big hit for me to win the duel. If this is possible to fix that would be cool

Crow_Nest · 02-24-2004, 06:59 AM

You cant just walk threw an enemy with ur staff or dual sabers, use the butterfly (staff) or the forward attack thingy (dual sabers)

Darth Evol Baby · 04-15-2004, 05:26 AM

Wow, talk about a thread!

I was about to d/load the patch but heck no!

Did it ever get figured out correctly?
