Pseudonym Posted November 27, 2002 Posted November 27, 2002 Well I will miss the light saber. But I never the played the first DF, couldn't get it to work on my comp cuz it was so old; so this will be an enlightening experience
SlapNut Posted November 27, 2002 Posted November 27, 2002 whats the dark forces mod, i herd about the game years ago, but what is it? light saber? whats going on, i looked at the screen shots and it looks worse than jk2...
Darth_Linux Posted November 27, 2002 Author Posted November 27, 2002 prolly shouldn't bother playing it then

Although the screenshots don´t really represent the complete mod (especially lightning looks totally different) it´s not the question of how it can compete with jk2 (lol, no, we´re not raven and we don´t get money for this), it´s the question of how it stands against the original level
Justus Posted November 27, 2002 Posted November 27, 2002 Wow, pretty awesome. Been many years since Dark Forces has seen my hard drive, haven't installed that game in years.. but this level is really true to the original. All the secret areas are there, the open area outside the base isn't as large as what I remembered it, but the added spotlight gives it a good feel... Gave me a real retro feel, made me want to go the the Crow's Nest and download some custom levels . Matter of fact, I may re-install Dark Forces and go play some custom levels... Dark Forces is a true classic. Also, it feels good not having to rely on the saber and the force for a change. Awesome, can't wait to play the other levels of this mod now. REALLY looking forward to the Coruscant level, that was probably my favorite level out of the original Dark Forces game, with the Executor level a close second... oh yeah, and Nar Shaddaa... Jabba' prison ship... heck I think I loved every mission in the original Dark Forces game.
icefox98 Posted November 28, 2002 Posted November 28, 2002 This is easily the best mod for JK II out there. One of the best mods I have ever played. It recreates the original PERFECTLY. I am amazed. It's just like playing the original with better graphics, kudos to you guys on all the sound effects, new items, interactive icons, etc. I cannot WAIT until the full version. GREAT JOB so far.
Pseudonym Posted November 28, 2002 Posted November 28, 2002 Even Better would be a Dark Forces II mod. Actually I just want one level; well 6 levels really but one planet . Return to Sulon - Palace Escape
Pseudonym Posted November 28, 2002 Posted November 28, 2002 Wow, that was ownage. But the level was kind of dark. And why was there a big hole in the bryar pistol? And why don't the fists work?
Rad Blackrose Posted November 28, 2002 Posted November 28, 2002 The fists work fine, even if their power sucks. Earlier it was stated that the fists wouldn't do damage, but they're supposed to. If you look at Kyle's punching glove in DF, you would see a metal tipped spike on the backhand. As for the Bryar's hole problem, I noticed that too.
Guardian Omega Posted November 28, 2002 Posted November 28, 2002 Ahhh, good times, good times. I enjoyed Dark Forces very much and it was the only game that really freaked me out. (Of course I was a little kid back then. ) I need to find my DF cd, pronto!
Jay-Kin-Adi Posted November 29, 2002 Posted November 29, 2002 Thats great, im downloading it right now i always loved that playstation game.

Yeah, I remember when I first encountered a Phase 1 Dark trooper I nearly unloaded my E-11 on him... had a pretty good environment, and creeped me out a bit.

And why don't the fists work? shouldn't be any holes in the weaon unless you are leaning . . . but even JO's have some unfinished surfaces you can see if you lean the right way. maybe a screenshot would help explain what you mean exactly?
InfErnO Posted November 30, 2002 Posted November 30, 2002 Good work. The demo looks cool. I like the original sound fx but I hate the midi music. The weapons should be more darkforceslike, if possible. You should add darkforceslike multiplayer, I missed it in the orignal, lol. Even Duke Nukem 3D had multiplayer. I still have the original darkforces cd. It works on my comp, just no sound, lol.
Bilbo Skywalker Posted November 30, 2002 Posted November 30, 2002 well i never had the original, but i enjoyed this one, played just like an early level of jk2 to me well done guys!!
