Kurgan's Meatgrinder. Next public Jedi Academy game...

[Kurgan]

I'm introducing a friend to the game this weekend, so my server will probably be up June 13 and/or 14th for a couple of hours. I'll post the IP when that happens (and you can always check my signature link).

[Davey]

Thanks Kurgan!

This time, I may be able to join you.

Oh yes - are custom models permitted or must we use the ones that come with the game?

[Kurgan]

You can use any you wish, though if I don't have 'em installed, I'll just see default Kyle.

So yeah, non-pure server.

[The Grim Squeaker]

June 13-14 according to what timezone? I'll happily reinstall the game, though i'll be pure Padawan cannon fodder (I haven't played since around the time ROTS came out)

[Kurgan]

Central Standard Time.

Don't worry, this month I dusted it off after not having played seriously much in almost that long (2006 I think).

Be sure you install the 1.01 patch and I suggest you get the JK2 FFA Map Pack and Bonus Map Pack (minimum) from http://strategy.jediknight.net/jka/downloads.shtml as those may be part of the map cycle. I also highly recommend OJP Basic v12 (not required to join, of course).

Incidentally, I've been having "MAX CVARS" problems when running Siege, but I find if I remove OJP Basic I can play Siege more or less fine (just minus the extra features, which is a shame). So if we want to play some Siege, we'll need to host it in Vanilla JA (aka "basejka"). Still, even there I have some custom bot routes to make it a little more tolerable.

Well I haven't played in ages but if I can dig up my copy of the game before then I might join in...

[Kurgan]

Well the server isn't up just yet... I'm putting my mod list together. Depending on how much time I need to finish up some things I'm working on, I might not be physically IN the server the whole time, but it's defiantly going up today.

[Kurgan]

Okay, server is up again!

68.53.58.195:29070

It'll stay up as much of this weekend as I can manage (may need the PC for other things at times, and there's a storm predicted for tomorrow, so power may be interrupted).

Mods supported (skins are optional of course):

OJP Basic V12
JK2 FFA Map Pack
JA Bonus Map Pack (official pack created by Raven software)

PS: If you get "too many npc" errors, you'll have to remove some of your skins. I got around this by opening the PK3s up in Winrar and deleting the "npc" folders under ext_data (you don't need those for MP anyway).

[Kurgan]

Glitch, restarting...

Btw, here's a huge file with all the skins in it (with the crashy, single player extras stripped out, so get the originals for the "full" experience on your own please) that I'm using.

[Kurgan]

The file has been updated, so if you got it earlier, I suggest re-downloading it and replacing it with the next version. A few of the skins were removed because of glitches, and a couple were further tweaked. The readmes are now included.

I've decided not to run the server today because I need the system resources for other stuff.

See you next time!
