I read on [ link removed because it was causing peoples virus scanners to act up -DSettahr ]* that the Dark Forces 2 Mod for JA is dead, so I decided to take over. I am looking for:
  • Mappers
  • Scripters
  • Texturers
  • Modelers
  • And anyone else who may be able to help. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif]**

I wonder if they are going to release what they have made so far...

However, I would help you if I could..

...If the TC is dead, its because people lost interest. Do you honestly think these people will return and begin again under new, inexperianced leadership?

Eh, I don't think it's about gathering all the old members for this new TC, but new members to create a DF2 TC for JA....

Exactly. I certainly wouldn't mind having anyone from the original team, but it's not top priority or anything.

Sorry, but this is a surefire distress signal right here - this is the probably the number one reason why mods fail. Without a strong programmer (or even artist) at the helm, it's near impossible to get things done.

I missed something here, there is no news about this anywere? If its true get hold of me at anakin@aotctc.com I think we might have a solution for you all.

I know how I want the mod to go. I am simply looking for people to implement the neccesary changes. I will keep getting better and actually do more in the mod the farther into it we get. If any of you can/would be the "strong programmer/artist" that supposedly is required, (and probably will be) please come forward!

Oh, and anakin...if what's true?
[EDIT]Echoman, did you ever play DF2?

Geeze... can't you name the friggin title "Dark Forces 2: JEDI KNIGHT"??!

I thought for a minute you were talking about the Dark Forces mod, since no one really refers to Jedi Knight as Dark Forces 2.

Yeah, how's this for odd? My parents haven't been the least bit interested in my love-life my entire life, and now that prom is soon my Dad all of a sudden seems concerned that if I don't find a date and go it will mean I'm a social failure.
I don't get it... I accepted that fact a long time ago, why is he just now realizing it?

You should establish a site with layouts, ideas and plans. Or maybe some place of connections. No one really finds you as a serious mod leader.

If I would have better personality, I would have taken over the mod and build a site for it...

If you can find hosting, I might be interested in helping with the website design. But I'd want to see some hard work on the mod first, a mod without a website is better off than a website without a mod.

Darth_Revan, I hate to say this, but if the mod is dead it should remain that way. It was started when JO was strong, and now it was just transferred to JA. The fact is that the mod hasn't made that much progress with the time so far. What are the chances that it will spring back up again?

It's a great idea, but it seems that JA doesn't have enough interest from people to devote efforts to a large single player mod. Maybe when the next JK title comes out on a new engine, this project will have hope.

Good luck anyway.

I say you should go for JK MP, as the levels are much smaller, and then the mod would receive much more attention. Single Player mods are bad ideas for games like JA, where it's specifically an MP experience.

If you can find a texture artist, I'd be more than willing to remodel the JK weapons with more... oomph. In-fact, I think that's a good idea any way you put it. Maybe I could throw together some updated JK models and throw them in JK with the same weapon templates....?
