Guest Shadowen Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 So I'm playing Jedi Outcast for the first time, anticipating getting the lightsaber so I can hack the bad guys to pieces. I do, and it is good. The hum, the glow, the power--everything. So I try to hack some aliens up. Arm. (That happened in the first game. Hmm...) Hand. (Ah. Better.) Other arm. (Another improvement!) Other hand. (Hurray!) Arm. (What?) Hand. (Okay...) Once I finished the game, I realized I had not seen a single de-limbing other than arms or hands, and not a single decapitation or cutting in half. Call me sadistic, but I was looking forward to collecting those nifty stormtrooper helmets, ya know? It's such a bother to take the whole corpse home with you. So I naturally assumed Raven had stuck to the arms. Then I come here and I read all this stuff about hacking people up multiple times as they're dying, and decapitations, and I'm pissed. Do I really suck that much with a lightsaber? What do I have to do to fully dismember these people? If it's as simple as setting the realisticlightsaber variable higher, then fine, but if it's not...

obijonkenobi Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 It is just a matter of using the realistic sabre code in console. There is not a non-console way to do it thats been posted in the forums so I assume its only able to be done in console. I think it is... g_realisticsabercombat "1" ? But I am probably wrong. I forgot what it is lol. Nice timing for my brain to be mind tricked hey? If you know the code, just bind two keys to the code (one for realistic sabres on and the other for off) Sorry I couldnt help much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shadowen Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 Not a problem. I have the parameters written down; I just didn't know if that was wat I needed to try. No point in making the game easier if you don't make it more fun at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsiSilverthorn Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 Actually that's wrong...There is another way to do it without relying on the realistic saber command OR the console. You can just edit the npc.cfg file and change each NPC's dismemberment variable to a higher number....And wouldn't you know it but somebody has already done this for you....Check the mods section of the file database for enyak_mutilate.pk3....It works great and doesn't change the damage characteristics of the saber. There is also another console command that increases dismemberments without changing damage, unlike the "realistic saber" command....It's up to you what to use but personally I would download the enyak_mutilate.pk3 mod.

Guest Shadowen Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 T'ank you, kind sirra. I shall try it immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obijonkenobi Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 Damn hey! I always wanted the dismemberment to be more frequent without changing the sabres damage, and this hopefully will answer that! Thanks mate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smwScott Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 Does the mod support more slicing than just arms and hands, as that is all I can work off too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vestril Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 actually that code up there is backwards, its g_saberrealisticcombat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dvlos Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 I changed g_dismemberment to a 9 in the SP config file and it hacks people in half and legs and stuff. Force grip and saber throw usually does that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychotic Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 Wow, I love this dismemberment console command! It looks so realistic, I think it shouldv'e been like this in the first place. Although I can see why Raven wouldn't want it turned on as a default - watching poor Kyle get hacked in two by Desann is really kind of harsh BTW, Nice forum you guys have here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsiSilverthorn Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 With the dismemberment console command and the modified NPC.cfg file found in enyak_mutilate.pk3 you can cut bodies in half, cut off heads, as well as the typical slicing off arms. I use the pk3 file and it works great! Don't have to type in a command everytime I start the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skidrowpunk Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 Or you can edit the start up config to always set dismemberment and saberrealisticcombat on like i did. every new level, or anytime i start the game its already on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brain21 Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 This is posted in another thread here. This seems to be the simplest way to do it. In you "base" directory create a text file called autoexec.cfg in that file put the following 2 lines: seta helpusobi1 "1" seta g_saberRealisticCombat "1" restart the game, and it is turned on by default. No NCP.cfg files to mess up, no console commands. The g_saberRealisticCombat apparently has possible values from 0-99. 0 = the default. at 99, who knows. You probably look at them and they explode! :-) Look through the threads here. THere is also a "blood mod" that will spew a somewhat realistic amount of blood out when you hit someone too. Not too much, not too little. The thread has some screen shots in it. Brain21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shadowen Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 Where do I get the mod that changes the NPC variables? Which mod section of which site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsiSilverthorn Posted April 26, 2002 Share Posted April 26, 2002 This site and mod section Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therealmoose Posted April 26, 2002 Share Posted April 26, 2002 I know "helpusobi 1" enables cheats, so will doing this and setting g_saberrealisticcombat to 1 make the game easier/me invicable or anything? i don't want that, just a few flying body parts.

toolboi Posted April 26, 2002 Share Posted April 26, 2002 g_dismemberment 5 Lets you hack anything off, and doesnt do some of the "I touched you with my saber, you die" stuff that g_saberrealisticcombat does Lets you hack off: the hands the forearms (half way) the arms (at the shoulder) the head, the torso (horizontally in half), the leg, the knee and the foot. A total of 16 peices I beleive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shadowen Posted April 26, 2002 Share Posted April 26, 2002 *searches for hours in the mod section, finding nothing* Oh, for...! I'm a retard. Someone, please, give me a link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skidrowpunk Posted April 27, 2002 Share Posted April 27, 2002 Dude, just type in what we said above. No need to download any files. All the mod does is make it just a frequent as the codes do, without having to type them in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodster2003 Posted April 27, 2002 Share Posted April 27, 2002 i dont want to type it in every time. I want the mod, so whats the link? thanks/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shadowen Posted April 27, 2002 Share Posted April 27, 2002 It does what the code does without changing the lightsaber's overall damage. I cannot find the "mod database" everyone refers to. It's not at jediknightii.net, it's not at massassi.net... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Raptor Posted April 27, 2002 Share Posted April 27, 2002 I think its alot like the movies in the default mode man! It seems in the movies only 1 thing will ever get cut off, hands, arms, and weapons (cut in half). You see luke constantly wacking people like on Jabba's yacht, and nothing ever gets cut off, they just scream and fall down. Either that or they lose an arm (Luke in TESB, Vader in RTJ, and that wierd guy in the Cantina in ANW).... But no one seems to get cut in half (except for Darth Maul and Ben, but ben just disapeared!)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsiSilverthorn Posted April 27, 2002 Share Posted April 27, 2002 Well I'm pretty sure I downloaded it from here but I don't see it here now....But I DID see it over at modcentral So here is the link to the section http://modcentral.jediknightii.net/mods.shtml Then look for the dismemberment mod...It's right there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaio23 Posted April 27, 2002 Share Posted April 27, 2002 I seem to have trouble with the g_dismemberment command. It's at 9, but nothing except arms come off...do I have to do anythinhg special? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shadowen Posted April 28, 2002 Share Posted April 28, 2002 T'ank youse. By the way, I probably screwed it up somehow, but the other methods just didn't seem to work for me. Ah, well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
