Welcome to the Jedi Knight Wiki discussion thread. Here are the things you need to know:

This wiki project has been created for the purpose of providing info on the original Jedi Knight games. This means only Dark Forces 2 and Mysteries of the Sith. No articles on Outcast, Academy, or the original Dark Forces will be allowed.

To see the wiki at this time, please follow this link:
http://jkdf2.wikia.com/wiki/Jedi_Knight:_Dark_Forces_2_Wiki

The wiki has been categorized into multiple sections:

    -Games and Development - These are articles on JK and MotS as well as development articles.
    -Heroes - These are articles about the games' protagonists.
    -Dark Jedi - These are articles on the antagonistic sith from JK.
    -Enemies - These are articles on characters you regularly fight in the games.
    -Non-Combat Characters - These are articles on good and bad characters that don't fight.
    -Locations - These are articles on each setting played through in the games.
    -Weapons and Items - These are articles on the weapons and power-ups used in the games.
    -Force Powers - These are articles on the Force abilities used in the games.
    -Real World - These are articles about real world topics not pertaining to game development.


If the idea seems good, I may add a section for articles describing each of the games' levels as well as containing walkthroughs for each.

If you are interested in helping develop the wiki, please post on this thread with your comments, questions, and concerns. Thanx so much for your support!

Sorry, I won't accept any emails containing attachments, as not to get a virus. If you wish to contribute to the wiki however, just let me know if you're willing to here. Then when the time comes to reveal it, you can help.

Dear Gibbagobba,

Well, considering that I played JKDF2 for about 5 years *straight*, I'd be happy to add little tidbits here and there. Heck, I think I even have my manual from 1997 if you want a word-for-word description of something.

You do know, however, that a wiki isn't complete without "links to additional content"; I would like to propose Massassi Temple and JKHub.net as obvious choices.

Why do I bother pointing this out? Well, after about a week of playing JK, I starting with mods, and have been modding ever since. Mods made this game for me, and since the original weapons are "meh" material at best...

...and god, did I love that first Grappling Hook mod!!

Player:
"ERIAMJH!"

Officer:
"TK-421, why aren't you at your post?"

By-now paranoid stormtrooper TK-421:
"Sir, we've got incoming... Jedi, I think, sir. From the sky."

Officer:
"Dang it! The Force cheats strongly with this one..."

MotS... ah yes, such good memories:

1. Purposely getting killed by the Rancor just to see the "You have been eaten" cutscene.

2. Homing Raildet!

3. SNIPER ATTACHMENT!!

4. "Carbonite gun? What the heck is this for? I pull the trigger but noth- HEY WHOA!!"

*WHACK*

"Oh man... oooh man... this is good, man, this is GOOD!"
(I didn't realize Han was so, well, fragile!)

5. Saber Throw

6. Force Chain Lightning

7. Sith zombies from the Dark Crypt! Jedi-eating doggies! Killer statues! Evil Kyle! And NONE OF MY $(#*%^ WEAPONS ARE WORKING!?

...goodbye, cruel world...

I went to youtube and saw this vid, and "Wow" there's absolutely no lag in the frame rate in the game at all. I have been experimenting with fraps screen recorder and on my computer, because Im making a game trailer of my last project, just for for fun, but the problem is when I hit the hot key to record a certain footage of the game action it slows way down. I dont know if its my computer or the program, but anyway your Wiki project is looking promising, great job.

Thanx man. Yeah, this is the latest version of FRAPS, as I just recently got it, plus I would guess I have a newer comp than yours as well as the fact that I'm not using any mods to make the game higher quality. It is an old game after all. The only difference is that the HUD weapons are slower even though they are uncapped. Surprisingly, that's the speed they SHOULD be!

You might wanna recheck your facts. ZED does show the wireframe, but does ALSO have the 3d preview window for editing textures, lighting etc.
While ZED can be more difficult to work with then JKEdit, it is easier to create complex architecture then it is with JKEdit. Though some editors such as Darth Dan do some pretty amazing work.

have a question.
You can create pages with the name of custom levels or even famous authors?
It would be really cool.

Anyway I'll try to help with whatever you can. It will not be perfect, but you can fix later xD

That sounds fine. Just so long as the editors/levels/mods are more well know than others (i.e. Edward/Power of the Force/JK Enhanced). I'll create categories for these as preparation.
