If you SWEAR you have only the legal retail version, you have the latest official patch (1.01) and you are not using ANY cd cracks or hacks, then the problem MUST be that the server you're trying to join is not legit (ie: beta, bootleg, warez, etc)....  [Read More]

The BlasTech can't be pulled, and if you pick up a Ysalamari you can't have anything pulled (granted, there are no slugs in the base JA maps and few addon maps that I've seen). But yeah, that's a major disadvantage for Mercs, fists+blastech isn't ve...  [Read More]

Unless it's a problem with the mod itself (in which case you should talk to the author), the map should cycle if g_automapcycle 1 is set (check your cfg file for exact details). Note that in order for the map to change, a human player (bots won't do...  [Read More]

Yeah, that would be treading on shaky legal ground, anyway you can learn how to mod without paying a cent (other than online fees and the cost of buying a copy of JA!). Just read the various tutorials, articles and messages posted in the editing for...  [Read More]

My server (regardless of gametype) runs the default 200 and I'm not likely to change it (unless I'm just testing something). Why? Because that's the default part of the game, and speeding up force regen throws off the whole balance. It leads to ramp...  [Read More]

The majority of fixes (other than the all important Server Bug fix) are related to multiplayer bugs and exploits that were fixed. Gameplay is indistinguishable except for the fact that it's now slightly harder to do rolls in MP (you need to jump or...  [Read More]

Well technically doesn't it say in the LA liscense agreement that all mods legally become property of LucasArts/Lucasfilm once released to the public? In which case I would think it would be very hard to win a case like this. Obviously it's sad if...  [Read More]

\broadsword 1 works fine, and it's an individual command (no g_ cg_ or rcon needed before it). It will only turn the effects on for you, every person who plays needs to turn it on for themselves. Some people say it looks unrealistic, but then so doe...  [Read More]

There's two schools of thought on the blocking issue (maybe three actually). One school says that auto blocking sucks and that "true skill" is in having a manual "block button" that you have to hold down or tap at the exact secon...  [Read More]

The fact is, hit detection in JA is different than JK2. It was made to be "more realistic." Sure, this can have bad side effects for example with lag in MP it can appear as if you hit somebody and you didn't or you missed them and they re...  [Read More]

That is strange. In the past nobody needed .NET to run their executables, why are they relying on it now? Call me ignorant or behind-the-times, but isn't .NET simply a way to manage all your passwords into one account (sounds like a bad case of &quo...  [Read More]
