The Seeker Posted January 26, 2006 Posted January 26, 2006 I recently started letting my eight year old brother cut his teeth on Jedi Knight. After he beat that, he's moved on to MotS. Problem is when playing with windows XP, the cutscenes all seem to be locked in fast forward. They just fly by so fast that there's no sound or anything. I have already switched compatability over to windows 98, but still, no fix. Any ideas?
Justus Posted January 26, 2006 Posted January 26, 2006 I've re-installed JK/MotS as well and have the same problem with the MotS cutscenes. I'm at a loss really, the levels play beautifully but it's as if someone hits the fast forward button on the cutscenes - granted the cutscenes aren't very pretty, but sometimes I like to watch them.
The Seeker Posted January 26, 2006 Author Posted January 26, 2006 Well, yeah, considering they help move the story along, and if I remember right, give you hints on what to do, ie, the end where you have to kill your saber to beat the game.
Kurgan Posted January 27, 2006 Posted January 27, 2006 Weird. I wish I knew if there was a fix. Check Yoda's Help Desk I guess, but there's no patch, so I don't know. Maybe a slow down program like MoSlo? Might not work since MotS isn't that old (it's a Win9x game from 1998).
coolsi Posted May 17, 2006 Posted May 17, 2006 Werid. I wish I knew if there was a fix. Check Yoda's Help Desk I guess, but there's no patch, so I don't know. Maybe a slow down program like MoSlo? Might not work since MotS isn't that old (it's a Win9x game from 1998). I had the same problem recently, so i tried putting all the cutscene .san files from the cd into my mots resource/video directory on my hardisk with the cutscene .goo (found in cutscenes.zip on the mots cd), after that it worked fine
Sir Vougalot Posted May 20, 2006 Posted May 20, 2006 I had this problem. The solution is simple: uninstall the game and reinstall it as a standard installation, rather than a complete installation. When you do that, the cutscenes should work fine.
Darth Timo Posted May 26, 2006 Posted May 26, 2006 Hallo, I had the same problem. In my case, it was caused by my sound drivers (Soundblaster Live!). When I turned off "full duplex", it worked fine. Greetings, Timo
Wardyn Posted July 18, 2006 Posted July 18, 2006 so is there actually away to play dark forces:jedi knight on xp? if so please let me know i really want to play it, it is the only one for the series i haven't played.
Sir Vougalot Posted July 18, 2006 Posted July 18, 2006 Um...yeah. It's fully compatable with XP. Just install it the way you would on any other computer.
