Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy is the fourth game in the Jedi Knight series, not counting the expansion Mysteries of the Sith. It was preceded by Star Wars: Dark Forces, Star Wars Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II, and Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast.

The Steam release does not include a manual; you can download one from ReplacementDocs.

Official patch

The most recent patch for the PC version is 1.01. It can be downloaded from LucasArts. It is included in the Steam release.

The most recent patch for the Mac version is 1.03 Rev F (currently in beta). It can be downloaded from Aspyr.

Widescreen mode, custom resolutions

Launch both the single-player and multiplayer executables at least once.

Navigate to the

C:\Program Files (x86)\Star Wars Jedi Knight Academy\GameData\base\

folder of your install directory.

Open jaconfig.cfg in a text editor.
There should be a line
```
seta r_mode "X"
```
where X is a number. If there is not, add it. Replace X with -1.
There should be a line
```
seta r_customwidth "X"
```
where X is a number. If there is not, add it. Replace X with the width of your desired resolution (for example, for 1680x1050 resolution, replace X with 1680).
There should be a line
```
seta r_customheight "X"
```
where X is a number. If there is not, add it. Replace X with the height of your desired resolution (for example, for 1680x1050 resolution, replace X with 1050).
There should be a line
```
seta cg_fov "X"
```
where X is a number. If there is not, add it. Replace X with your desired horizontal FOV (default is 80; try 90 for 16:10 resolutions, or 95 for 16:9).
Repeat steps 3-7 with jampconfig.cfg.

Note that running the game in widescreen mode will cause the HUD, menus and aiming crosshair to appear horizontally stretched. In addition, your arms may occasionally appear to be floating in midair when using the lightsaber or Force powers in first-person view.

Save file location

Save files are stored in the following folder in the install directory:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Star Wars Jedi Knight Academy\GameData\base\saves\

They have .SAV extensions.
