ajcrow Posted August 9, 2008 Posted August 9, 2008 Is there a way i can get this to run on a mac? I can get most of the basic version to work, but the enhanced version (the one i want to run) doesn't seem to do anything. Any help???
Agent_Katarn00 Posted August 9, 2008 Posted August 9, 2008 Yes you can.Emulators can help,they make things run on programs they can't.If you have a jedi knight game to make it work,go to google and type Windows Virtual PC.It will put an emulation on computer so you can have a windows whenever you want.You can play it with that.;)I hope it will work for ya!
ajcrow Posted August 10, 2008 Author Posted August 10, 2008 No, that wouldn't work. I DO already have virtual pc (an old one but a version nonetheless), and it wouldn't work because i would have to buy the pc version of the game, which i won't do because i have a mac version already. I just think it stinks that i can't get this to work....

razorace Posted August 11, 2008 Posted August 11, 2008 Has anyone clicked on that link? I wonder what the deal is.
DarthDie Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 Its a screenshot of lucasforums with a "Buy Jedi Academy" ad on teh right.
razorace Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 Yeah, but what's the catch for getting a free copy of JKA?
DarthDie Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 Zango is a free, premium-content access tool, paid for by advertising. Once installed and while online, using keywords sent to Zango from your Internet browsing, Zango software (with Weather) shows ads in a Zango Toolbar; a temporary Slider, on (e.g.) the bottom corner of your screen; and a separate browser window that pops up on your screen. If you search for or view Adult websites, you may receive Adult-oriented ads. Depending on your browser version, Zango may become the default search provider. Additionally, Zango may redirect a search resulting in an error to a list of sites similar to your search terms. Zango's Internet Explorer, Outlook/Outlook Express and Word Toolbars give access to free emoticons (and more) within those applications, when online. Zango runs continuously and upgrades automatically. Uninstallation is easy via Add/Remove Programs.
ajcrow Posted August 15, 2008 Author Posted August 15, 2008 I think someone should port this over to mac. It sounds cool, and if people think its good, then it should be available for all players,. Someones already done a linux, right? So where's the mac? I'd do it myself, but i dunno how.
DarthDie Posted August 15, 2008 Posted August 15, 2008 Well the problem is none of the dev's have a mac, they all have windows AFAIK.
Maxstate Posted August 15, 2008 Posted August 15, 2008 Hey Redsaurus, long-time no see! You still with us here on the team?
redsaurus Posted August 16, 2008 Posted August 16, 2008 Yeah, I'm still around. I'll get a 1.2 mac compile done soonish, msn me if/when you need any other compiles done.
ajcrow Posted August 17, 2008 Author Posted August 17, 2008 Thanks Redsaurus! That will be cool! I can't wait!
ajcrow Posted September 6, 2008 Author Posted September 6, 2008 I don't want to sound whiny or impatient (and I'm sorry if I do) but how long does "soonish" mean? I understand if you're busy with something else more important, it's just I wanted to know how long. Thanks
redsaurus Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 Really sorry, (I forgot), however there's something strange going on with the strings (that might just be because I'm loading from setup->mods though) - does that matter for you? What mac patch version are you running?
ajcrow Posted September 7, 2008 Author Posted September 7, 2008 Of Academy? Multi-player is running 1.0.3e. Single player is 1.0.1e. I installed the Rev E patch a while ago now.
Maxstate Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 You need to run the mod using a batch file or the mac equivalent of one, the mods --> thing doesn't work too well.
ajcrow Posted September 8, 2008 Author Posted September 8, 2008 I don't think there is... I've never come across one anyway.
ngekky Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 I also want a mac version here! When will it be finished?
Maxstate Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 I think a way around the batch file is running a shortcut to jamp.exe with the +fs_game "ojpenhanced" parameter, if that is possible on a Mac. I have no experience with it. It should however, if possible, fix most of the bugs.
ajcrow Posted September 10, 2008 Author Posted September 10, 2008 The only way to run a "short cut" would be to use an autoexec.cfg, as from my experience I don't think that shortcuts (or aliases as they are called on a mac) don't work like .bats and wouldn't activate files for a game. Unfortunatly, I've already tried this, by typing: helpusobi 1 set fs_game "ojpenhanced" and helpusobi 1 jamp.app set fs_game "ojpenhanced" into a autoexec.cfg, and it seems that fs_game is write protected ( ), meaning that it wouldn't work anyway. I think what we need is for someone to port the .dlls so that they will run on a mac, as none of the features that ojp is famous for (saber combat, customization, dodging, etc) are working when I run the mod. All I get is its fancy menus, which are all over the place and some of which the text is missing. Irritating....
Maxstate Posted September 10, 2008 Posted September 10, 2008 none of us are running macs, so you'll have to bug redsaurus for that. Red?
redsaurus Posted September 11, 2008 Posted September 11, 2008 It's pretty annoying, but you can't launch straight to a mod in the latest mac patch --> guaranteed menu bugs in 1.0.1e/1.0.3e. I'll put the mac stuff up tomorrow though.
