I'll run it one more time past LEC to see if they want to release them. I think the problem is mainly the fact that the end-user agreement says something like "I will not modify the game in any way." Adding these files technically would mod...  [Read More]

I for one would love to...but LEC has other ideas http://www.jediknight.net/mboard/wink.gif I'm the next-best-thing to obsessed over TPM, but I'm sure you've noticed that. I'd give anything to do a sequel to TPM with better graphics etc, but methink...  [Read More]

Simple bug; DM was never supposed to be "Pushed". He would REACT to getting force pushed, but not actually MOVED, much the same way that Qui-Gon reacts in the movie when Maul thumps him in the face, right before DM impales him on his sabre....  [Read More]

ARRRRGGGHHHHHH Stinking Force Push Bug. We knew about that bug, worked on it, and we all thought that got fixed. If you force push him IMMEDIATELY, then you can get him off his AI, and therefore push him into the pit. Once he makes a move or two, an...  [Read More]

Someone said that they were finding TPM, Racer, and X-Wing Alliance on sale at Price Club for $16.99 each - I thought that was a one-time only thing. So imagine my surprise finding them at my local Costco. I was all set to snap up a copy of TPM, then...  [Read More]

I'm not an expert on JPB, I must say. While Big Ape's Zanzibar tool was used and modified to create the backgrounds and AIs in JPB, the actual building and development of the game was done by an internal team at LEC. On a personal note, I thought J...  [Read More]

You can move a box by stepping in front of the box and pressing the 'spacebar' key (or 'Use' - for the PSX, you press the Triangle key, I believe). Then, either press forward or backward, and you'll move the box in that direction. If you're having t...  [Read More]

WOW - I don't know how these numbers came out like this. My understanding was that the MAXIMUM you could gain on one level was 1 ranking point, and everyone starts out at 4. So even if you didn't die once, your numbers should be 4,5,6,7,8,9,9,9,9,9,9...  [Read More]
