wassup Posted April 26, 2003 Posted April 26, 2003 http://www.jk2files.com/file.info?ID=13192 Since JediKnightii.net is pretty much dead files-wise, I just wanted to point out this handy little program. NOTE, it does not work in Windows 98/Me (to the extent of my knowledge). I have emailed the author about this issue and is waiting for a reply.
yolkboy Posted April 27, 2003 Posted April 27, 2003 Sigh... I have Win 98 SE. It says it works for Win 98 on the site but it didn't work for me. Hope to hear the update from you soon.
Zappa_0 Posted April 28, 2003 Posted April 28, 2003 Yea I know, I tried it out yesterday and it totally crashed my PC. Oh well, back to the window siez version! I hope he can fix that problem for us Win 98 SE/ Win ME users very soon!
wassup Posted April 28, 2003 Author Posted April 28, 2003 Ok I got it to work for ME...but only partially. 1) Open JKII minimizer. 2) Make sure your JKII res is the same or less than your desktop res. 3) Open JKII. Go to Setup->Video. Turn "Full Screen" OFF. This will make your JKII into a window that partially fills your desktop. 4) Press Ctrl+Z to minimize JKII. You can't move your desktop mouse cursor when JKII is minimized, which kinda sucks. Also, you will have to play JKII in a window. Note, I have not tested this on Win 98, anyone who has Win 98 try the above procedure and see if it works. Its not really a real JKII minimizer, though. Guess we'll have to wait for the next version. Thanks to Hekx Noxu for discovering this procedure.
Zappa_0 Posted April 28, 2003 Posted April 28, 2003 Hmmmmm, well the only thing is that it did work kinda but just went to the desktop extra huge and wouldnt let me click anything or go back into the game. But aleast with the window size u can click out of it, and get into stuff on ur desktop and PC.

Emon Posted April 30, 2003 Posted April 30, 2003 Some of us prefer IBM 101 key keyboards that are indestructable. No really, a friend of mine bashed one against a stone wall and inflicted no damage to the beast.
tubbydrmmr Posted April 30, 2003 Posted April 30, 2003 Well, some of us also know our keyboard shortcuts...Ctrl+Esc pops up the Start Menu just like the windows key does, Emon:p Anyway...you guys have been mostly talking about Win98/Me. This minimizer is supposed to work no problem with Win2K and WinXP, right?
