As has been mentioned, a distinction should be made between non-linear level design and non-linear gameplay. One is not necessarily the other. JK's, and for the most part JO's levels (meaning architecture and layout) were linearly designed, meaning y...  [Read More]

You ask what's the point? I'll tell you. It's very very easy and lots of fun to make. No need to spend weeks and weeks designing locations, modelling weapons and enemy models and programming them, and, most importantly, coming up with an original sto...  [Read More]

Offering them for download is illegal. Levels with DF textures are illegal, because they are offering DF content tp people who don't own DF. However, if you own DF and are required to extract those textures yourself, then youaren't doing anything il...  [Read More]

As I said in the first post, many resources from the original JK would be required, such as sounds and cutscenes. And so part of the installation would require the JK CDs be inserted in order for an extractor program to extract the resources. Such a...  [Read More]

Most definately not. The levels would have to use the Q3 engine's mapping capabilities to the maximum. dr0id's plugin could be used to make easy-to-follow reference levels, but they would have to be remade from scratch. Anyway, part of the remake wo...  [Read More]

Set aside questions about the feasibility of such a mod. I want to discuss the technical issues here. Is JO's modified Q3:TA engine cabaple of handling the original Jedi Knight's singleplayer levels? Recreating the JK levels would require modelling...  [Read More]

That isgreat news (as long as the MP SDK is really released), but I think many JK modders will be disappointed that there's no one universal system controlling everything as there was in JK. That's what made modding so easy for it. Anyway, I really...  [Read More]

ICARUS is too simple, as I stated at the beginning of the topic. It includes primitive syntax and constructs, and is useful only for making levels - you can control many dynamics of a level through the scripts; but for modding it is useless since it...  [Read More]

Someone mentioned somewhere on this forum that SOF2's ICARUS2 can be used to modify weapons, items, and a whole other list of things. Hopefully this is the same version of ICARUS2 that is used in JO. If that's the case, and if ICARUS2 is anywhere nea...  [Read More]

That's what I said. They'll probably (hopefully) release a GDK with a level editor, a few plugins for exporting models from 3DSMAX or some other 3D application, and the decompiled ICARUS 2 scripts. Chances are they won't release an SDK with the sourc...  [Read More]

Thanks for replying so promptly. The more I think about it, I realize it just isn't possible to use OJP as a base - as long as it isn't released, that is, and I doubt that's going to happen any time soon. The only option is to snoop around your sour...  [Read More]

Hi all. I've got a few uneducated questions here, I was hoping someone could give me a hand. First of all, I've been out of the entire JO/JA modding scene for quite a while, and only recently started getting back to it. A few months ago I was workin...  [Read More]
