Issues fixed
3D Acceleration problems
Running the game with 3D acceleration turned on may cause crashes or graphics problems on some modern machines. If you experience problems, try the following steps (you may have to do this every time you launch the game):
Game runs in a window even when game is set to fullscreen (Steam)
Seemingly low FPS or stuttering
The game appears to have an issue where, while running at 60 FPS, it will update camera movement at 30. This gives the appearance of poor performance and can be improved by capping the frame rate below 48.
HUD does not appear, or screen has black border
Missing music (Steam)
Wrong or missing music (with CD)
Music does not loop
This is a known issue on some Windows Vista and 7 machines
Miscellaneous fixes
Other information
Texture/model enhancement
- Jedi Knight Enhanced is a model enhancement pack which requires the unofficial patch to be installed; an older version of the patch is included in the download.
- Jedi Knight Retexture Pack is a texture enhancement pack which can be used alone or in conjunction with Jedi Knight Enhanced. It requires the unofficial patch to be installed.
- The LOD Mod prevents NPCs and textures being scaled down in quality as you move away, which is very noticeable when playing in high resolutions. This is recommended regardless of whether you're using the above two graphics mods.
Notes
- This mod requires that you start a new game and prevents old save games from being loaded, as it replaces all of the level files.
- Does not currently work on Level 6 of the original game.
JK HUD Revamp
Jedi Knight's normal HUD is too small at high resolutions. The HUD revamp mod replaces the default GUI and HUD elements with larger, higher resolution alternatives.
jkhud.zip
affects the health and ammo readouts, and jkgui.zip
the force power and item icons.
