    So lets talk about player retention in this mod...

    That's something I am aware of and we as a team are focused on. @GoodOl'Ben has a long old list of things that will be locked development wise - which would mean they wont be touched unless someone can provide a very strong justification as to why. We'd like to focus on small tweaks, and adding...

    So lets talk about player retention in this mod...

    There is a default keymap in the PK3s, but, it doesn't actually seem to work. The updated launcher should let us address this by supplying an actual config file if one does not already exist (i.e. give a config to new players without overwriting existing player's configs). Join bugs need some...

    Scarif - The First Rogue One Location

    No guarentees that just because somethings been in a dev diary it will definitely be in the next patch. A Launcher update wont ever be released at the same time as a game update because that'd just be asking for trouble.

    Scarif - The First Rogue One Location

    Not all necessarily at the same time.

    So lets talk about player retention in this mod...

    We will do what we can. I am aware our OOBE isn't great, and we're working on it piece by piece. The first thing in this pipeline is the launcher upgrades, and some long standing bug fixes which appear right when you join a server. I want the library to be updated, and I want that to be part of...

    Why aren’t there more models in game?

    Basically, because models are assigned to be used with only a specific class and so you cant just add client side models you can only override them. I'm not aware of any hard limit that means we cant add more but, more models is more loading time, bigger memory footprint and generally reduced...

    Technical Issue Steam version of jedi academy wont launch single and multiplayer

    In Steam: Right Click Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy -> Properties -> Local Files -> Verify Integrity Of Game Files -> Let it run (This will make sure the right executables have the right name) Once that's is done in Launcher: Settings -> Make sure Steam Integration is enabled.

    I am a victim of sexual harassment in the MB2 community.

    People are arseholes on the internet. Unfortunately many people consider this to be a feature and not a bug. Seriously though, you can ignore individual players, and if you cant swap servers - swap teams. Perhaps the TK system could also be adjusted so that points are given more aggressively...

    Leaving MB2 (For now......)

    I'll check my Magic 8 Ball*: *Magic 8 Balls are not reliable sources of development timetables.

    Admin abuse: Cat Lady

    Other retired devs will retain admin access. For now this thread has run its course and so I am closing it.

    Admin abuse: Cat Lady

    Just because the first thread was locked doesn't mean its not being looked at. It was locked because it was turning into hearsay and insults.

    Launcher Updates and Fixes

    What may be possible in the future is a quick launch mode which could skip showing the UI on a few conditions, such as there are no updates, the game shut down correctly the last time it launched, there are no new news items, possibly some extra conditions. That being said one of the things we'd...

    Admin abuse report: Cat lady

    Yes. Afking is not a bannable offense. That's why force team is there (or kick if server is full). Would still like to hear the other side.

    Admin abuse report: Cat lady

    It's true if you call someone a moron you do kinda lose the high ground, and 50 minutes is a little harsh. Did Cat Lady ban you or take any other action? I wouldn't mind hearing the other side of this story either.

    Launcher Updates and Fixes

    I can see why you would think that, but there are real benefits. In the old days many people would struggle to do a manual installation. If you're technically savvy then it is straight forward but alot of people arnt. They want no fuss and into game as quickly as possible. So there are two...

    Launcher Updates and Fixes

    Manual installations will still be supported. Launcher will continue to validate the installation is correct however. Out of interest - what is it that you don't like about the automatic updates?

    Launcher Updates and Fixes

    Defaulting to my documents is horrible though. High performance PCs tend to use an SSD as the system disk. I don't want to start taking space up. What I might do is have launcher change the permissions when MB2 is installed with user consent.

    Launcher Updates and Fixes

    A few people have shown some interest in some upcoming enhancements to the launcher. The launcher serves as both as a tool for updates and information and as the first impression new players get to MB2 it is therefore important that the launcher gives a clean and seamless experience. In its...
