Foreword:
=========
I'd like to start with a big thank to the people who contributed to this little mod. It wouldn't have been possible without them. So, thank you guys, you rock. :)
A word of explanation:
======================
'Star wars - Privateer' was previously known as 'Invasion', but unfortunately, I was not entirely satisfied with the story, so I rewrote it. The original mod was voiced by the usual crew (Inyri, Craig, Kessno...). I do know that you all prefer voice-acting whenever possible and so do I, but in that case that's just not possible. It's a lot of work (144 lines of dialogue), and I have too little time. I know it's a shame, but this is the best I can offer. I guess that an unvoiced mod is better than no mod at all. Anyway, I hope you'll enjoy playing Privateer as much as I enjoyed creating it.
Installation instructions:
==========================
The installation is really simple. Extract "Privateer.zip" into your GameData folder (by default C:Program FilesLucasArtsStar Wars Jedi Knight Jedi AcademyGamedata). It will create a subfolder called "Privateer", as well as a very useful batch file (Privateer.Bat). Just click on it, and it will launch the game. See? Nothing really difficult here.
Please note that this campaign only supports English. Make sure your game is set on English language in order to avoid all kinds of undesirable effects during the game. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ENABLED �SUBTITLES: IN CINEMATICS� IN THE GAME OPTIONS MENU, AS SUBTITLES ARE NEEDED FOR THE CUTSCENES.
requirements:
=============
A word of warning: this mod is bigger and more detailled than "Nova Unit" and "Genesis" were. If there are any slowdowns during the game, just turn off 'dynamic glow' (the nasty FPS killer for older computers) in the 'video options' menu.
Gameplay notes:
===============
In Privateer, the player is given the opportunity to complete several side quests. As in any RPG, kotor for example, there is a reward for each of these quests: weapons and ammunitions, new force powers, etc... These side quests will help Nina to reach her objectives.
