Mex Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 But 56k'ers don't play BF1942. It's impossible with that connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GothiX Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 Besides, 54 MB is still a lot for 56k. Then again, I've been known for downloading 300 MB files on dial-up, so yeah.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa_0 Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 Well looks like the site has exceeded bandwidth, so looks like this is gonna be news central now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PR-0927 Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 Umm, how are you supposed to keep all of your original files from JA in case you want to play it? I saved them in a seperate folder. AOTCTC replaces it all!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amidala from Chop Shop Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 Gave it a quick run-through, it looks very professional and polished (and I mean professional, because people are already whining about it in the same way they whine about Star Wars® Jedi Knight®: Jedi Academy, a commercial product from a real software company). Didn't have a chance to test all the admin features, but you have most of the important things (if it doesn't have client IP address logging, that should be added).  Well done, AOTC:TC team!

PR-0927 Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 Duh!! It's a TC!! It dosn't replce your files. I respect the AOTCTC very much for making this. But, are there any new Siege mode types? And there was only 2 servers running it. One was duel, the other had no one on it. Are there any new maps? I found no new maps anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa_0 Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 The maps will be out tonight sometime. I guess maybe Lucas Files will host them, since their site is down right now. Good one majin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anakin Posted May 2, 2004 Author Share Posted May 2, 2004 Yeah seems that all you monkey bandwidth hogger used all 10gig up in 10hours, gee thanks  Lucasfiles has the demo, im sure more people will put up servers once the maps and the bugs have been ironed out, the reason for the large file is so that when we do the updates they should be small, the maps will be released once I can get back onto the site, I was just posting as the site hit its MAX, this happened in 2 mins, I got an email telling me I was 80% over then all things happened 2 seconds later I got another email, Your bandwidth has been exceeded, 10Gig people I mean !!!! come on were you downloading it for your entire family!!!  So Maps and a few models will be out this week, a hotfix is being made, the mac version is being made by me.

I would of downloaded 54mb of Twi'lek porn instead. Mmm... Twi'leks gone wild...

Gabrobot Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 54 MB isn't that much to download for a 56k'er...hell, I've downloaded 500MB files a couple times. I've downloaded countless 100-300MB files. Now uploading 50+ MB may be difficult when I release my level... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lindsey Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 Anakin, it sure wasn't wise of you to put the whole mod on YOUR website for download. These people are so lazy they'ed rather do it there then on Lucasfiles. Â Â Thanks alot guys, now I gotta wait a few more days before I can get my hands on those maps!!!!

Zappa_0 Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 Why not just release the maps of lucas files and forget it. That way it would save you alot of bandwidth. And one more thing, are you gonna release anything else tonight? You can atleast release them on Lucasfiles now and then link them later on your site. That way you can save more room for content.

Obi_Kwiet Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 Umm. It would be possible to read up or see if it was for mac first. I must be missing something though, cause its very buggy. Instagib is REALY messed up and I don't see any new maps. All I saw saw a changed loading screen, and some samer color and effects things. (Mabey tone them down a bit too... There kind bright) I also see all the maps croweded in to the same game type, and the old gametypes from JK with no maps suppoting them. I don't see anything elce. Where is it?

Kurgan Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 Okay I see the problem. I was a little disappointed myself. Â The screenshots and the "installer" program lead one to believe this includes (at minimum) new skins and map(s). The lack of a real readme (other than a "list of features" which of course doesn't mention the missing content in the demo) doesn't help much either. Â However as it stands it's just a collection of already released mods, plus a few tweaks and the (otherwise cool) menu screens/videos and the music track. Â I'm sure the team is being hounded with requests, complaints and bug reports, so will refrain from contributing until all the dust settles. Â I know it's a demo and not finished or bug free, but it looks like the release party didn't quite go as planned! (oh well, it happens) Â Since the AOTC TC site has been down (bandwidth maxed out) for quite awhile, most people (like me) aren't able to read up on what is going on with this, except through third parties. Â Bottom line: I didn't really know what was going on until I read through this thread. Â Anyway, good luck... I'll eagerly await trying out the new content when it's posted somewhere!

Amidala from Chop Shop Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 After I used Add\Remove Programs to remove AOTC:TC, I found that my launcher program (JediAcademy.exe) that lets you launch the single player or multiplayer game no longer worked and gave me this error message: Â Â I can still launch the single-player and multiplayer games directly, but obviously that's a bug that needs to be fixed. I'll post it on your board too. Â EDIT: I was able to repair it by copying all the files in the Install directory on CD 1 to the Install directory in my game installation.

Obi_Kwiet Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 Whats up with the sabers? Man they are BRIGHT! Nothing like the movies. Ouch. My eyes. I realize that there must be alot of coad changes to this thing, but they should have delayed the release date untill you could tell they were there. Now it just looks like some loading screens and a couple of stances. The "co-op" thing just turned out to be the same as devmaping to the SP map in multiplayer. I could see releacing this is if were open source but there so radicly aginst that, that this is kinda a pointless demo. As it is its just a big bunch of potential, with no implementation what so ever. Maby next time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alegis Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 am i the only one who likes the sabers ? why do you release a TC demo if there arent any maps/models? Movies are biggest part.. I do like the new layout of the menus with the movies in it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Â PS: Amidala I had a problem like your's. The demo screwed up the "JA Launcher" so I did what you suggested and that fixed it. Â It was weird, the text was all scewed to the side and barely readable. Now I've got the old JA Launcher back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amidala from Chop Shop Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 My suggestions for the saber styles to make them easier to use: [*]Have a menu to enable\disable each saber style with checkboxes, so players can have as many\few saber styles as they like. If you really want to be fancy, include animations as the game already has for the standard saber styles under Rules -> Moves to show each saber style in action. [*]Since (sadly) many servers are saber-only and don't use other weapons at all, allow each saber style to be bound to the number keys that are usually used for gun selection [*]Just as there can be key binds for next\previous weapon or Force power, allow "+changeSaberStyle" and "-changeSaberStyle" binds so players can use 2 keys or the mousewheel to scroll quickly either up or down through their pre-selected saber styles [/list=1] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
