Yeah, just what it says, both MotS and JK are installed, and CD 1 is in the drive. What the freak? -- Course I might need to restart the computer. It's that way in JED .95 and .951.

I have a patch where you don't have to use the CD. Think I got it from Narshaddaa.net.

There's also this:
Originally posted by Datamaster:
No-CD JK
The Jedi Knight CD has a file called jk_.cd which is in the gamedata\resource directory. By copying that file from the CD to your own resource folder on the hard drive, you can run JK without using a CD. You must have a complete installation for this to work. And if you want the movies as well, you can copy the video folder to your hard drive and JK will play them.

JED (a .jkl editing program) will ask you for a CD to make sure you really have JK, but all it wants is the first two smacker cutscenes - 01-02A.smk and 03-04A.smk. To fix that, create a gamedata\resource\video\ directory on one of your drives, put those two movies in it, and tell JED that's your CD drive. You can also use a mapped drive if you want. Another thing about the movies is that the first one gets really aggravating after a while - it's the opening cutscene. To skip that, just delete 01-02A.smk or rename it.


And also Hellcat's crack program (attached)

Both these methods work for all versions of Jed
May the mass times acceleration be with you.

If you ever find a similar method for MotS, let me know it, K?
