What a learning curve - I finally get a good grip on JED and level editing for JK, then this comes out and I have to "Unlearn...what I have learned." Anyway...I've got Jedi Academy, and I'm using JK2Radiant for editing. So far, I've been following Rich Diesal's tutorial (http://richdiesal.jedioutcastmaps.com/tutorials/index.html), and it's really helped a lot - unfortunately, there are quite a few things that are referenced in the tutorials that I simply can't find - case in point, sounds (doors sliding, water running, steam, as well as ambient noise.) In the tutorial, it says to look for a sound.txt file in the /sounds folder - but neither that folder nor the file seems to exist on my hard drive. I did a full install of the game itself, as well as a full install of JK2Radiant and it's accompanying toolset patch. Where, oh where, have the sound effects gone?

Drop JK2radiant, and get the latest GtkRadiant. You will be glad you did.

As for the sounds, you really just need to look in the assets.pk3 files in the base folder using winzip or winrar(i find winrar to be a lot easier). Look for the folder called 'sounds' and find your sound effect and use that filepath as your sound.

Thanks for that info - I didn't know the assets files had to be unzipped in order to find the files (they didn't show up when simply viewing the file list.) No biggie...on the other note, how different is GTK from JK2Radiant? Secondly, do I have to completely un-install JK2Radiant to install GTK?

You don't need to uninstall JK2. But GTKradiant is much better in many ways.

-GTKradiant has an undo option.
-GTKradiant has a better compiler.
-GTKradiant handles terrain better.
-GTKradiant comes with better plugins (like brush cleanup)
-GTKradiant handles models better.
-GTKradiant has less brush problems.
-GTKradiant won't randomly delete files.
-and do on...

Thanks - I just installed GTK I like the fact that it's a multi-platform editor, I've got several of the games listed (although I doubt I'll have time to do any editing other than for JA right now; having two toddlers running around kinda limits my playtime.)

Thanks again for the help
