Hello guys, been a few years since i have been here playing. But i decided to install this wonderful mod on Mac and it took me a while to get it working.

Anyway heres a guide to make it easy for you all Mac guys :)

Download the game on Steam.

Download the Modification
Star Wars: Movie Battles II v1.3.1 download

Open Steam Folder.
> Right click on game Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy
> Properties
> Local Files
> Browse Local Files

You will find the folder " Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy "
> Right click
> Show package contents

You will see folder
" Contents " and " installscript_osx.vdf "
> click and open Contents
> Move ALL FILES from the newly downloaded Modification folder ( mb2-v1-3 ) into " Contents " ( Equivalent of Game Data in MAC )

Go to folder " MB II "
Copy " z_MB_BaseAssets.pk3 " from MB II folder and paste into Base folder ( This will remove any bugs with models )
Remove the remaining " z_MB_BaseAssets.pk3 " in folder MB II

Download Jedi Academy MP Launcher
http://jkhub.org/files/file/1019-jedi-academy-mp-launcher-for-os-x/
> Open folder
> Move "JKJALaunch.app" into Jedi Academy folder ( Will appear beside " Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy " )
> Double click " JKJALaunch.app "

Choose Multiplayer.
> Go to SETUP
> Load MB II Mod

And finally
> Go to SETUP
> Game Options
> Turn " Allow Downloads " to OFF

You are done! Happy gaming :) See you on the servers.

( Instructions are still the same if .app is not shown after your files, it just depends on your settings )

* If you for some reason need to use the console the command is " SHIFT " + " < " for Mac

I tried several launchers. The JKJA launcher got me up to the point of joining a server form the actual in game server list, but would crash to the desktop after a couple of seconds. The second launcher, simply named MBII launcher, (Spaghetti provided the link) crashed upon double clicking it. I tried to open it a different way by going into its contents and using terminal to watch what happened as it started to launch. However, I don't know any C++ so it didn't help... What is a full stack trace?

Maybe this could be a problem, idk for sure though just brainstorming. When I launch the version given from this post, which is 1.3.1, in the bottom right of the moviebattles start screen, it says 1.3.0.... Could that be the problem? Because the 1.3.2 halloween update is supposed to just be an upgrade right, not an entire file???? Any ideas?

I was meaning when you tried to execute the "launcher" through terminal, you just provide a screenshot.
Can do it again and provide a copy/paste of the entire text inside the terminal starting from your command

Ok wait. For some reason everyone switched servers from last night, they arent on the first open type one. But now I can join that server because no one is in it.... What does this mean? Btw, I just tried this with the JKJA launcher

Update: Only has worked on the Hoth map.... The AOD 24/7 Stopming Grounds is now on republic cruser and I cant join. Maybe I'm missing maps???? However, this doesnt get rid of the fact that when someone was joining the hoth map i could play, I would get kicked out.... Hope to play this soon

Update: I've been trying to just get windows on a partition of my hard drive to make things easier, which hasn't been easy at all... But.. as I've researched how to do this, I've found that I'm on the most recent OS X el Capitan, a public beta software. I'll attempt to downgrade and then see if I can get this mod working. If not, the downgrade to a fully functional OS might help in the process of getting windows on a partitioned drive.

It's probably not worth downgrading or installing windows just for MBII.

When you were doing the manual install, did you download the 1.3.1 full and install that before doing the 1.3.2 update? You'd just want to copy the files from the MBII folder in the 1.3.2 update into the MBII folder from 1.3.1.
