Old School: A modification of Jedi Academy
a mod by the Redeemed clan (http://www.christiangaming.org/redeemed/):
R|Death Monkey - Efx files, sabers, 2d graphics, skins
R|Fabier - 2D graphics
R|Grets Sirob - Mapping
R|Drachemorder - Mapping
R|tinny - Coding, efx, and menus
Version 1.00
Features:
- powered completely by Razor Ace's OJP Basic mod for the base, includes advanced bots, highly improved scripting, better vehicle codes, a coop mode,
advanced ai for npcs, an admin system, and sooo much more. More info can be found at http://ojp.jediknight.net/
- new effects created by various modders listed in the effectsreadme
- flip kick from jedi outcast is enabled (thanks to Master Hex for his help)
- various gun changes such as increased projectile speeds and damage, charging time for pea shooter, think time for alternate rockets
- now lightsaber isn't the only dismembering weapon as the golan arms, alternate fire of concussion rifle, alternate repeater fire, and
the various explosives will now dismember body parts
- force seeing 2 dodges sniper shots and alternate conc rifle shots like in single player while level 3 displays health of opponent or ally
- completely redone swoop handling and effects and will now go up higher steeps and hover over water with right effects
- super dismemberment (every limb torn off and blown apart) by powerful weapons such as rockets and det packs (thanks to Wudan for all the help with this, he pretty much coded this in)
- new force speed with shortened duration but greater effects including lengthened wallruns and shaolin water surface run
- team heal and team energize are gone , but force heal and force drain will do team heal and team energize
respectively when at full health
- added Jedi Master mode from jo, and cty can be reached via console
- force blinding and force destruction - ;D
Gameplay notes:
- force destruction is protected a little bit by force protection, but force abosrb level 3 will completely negate it and add 40 force points,
lower levels will reduce the protection and force gain
- force blinding level 1 and 2 will blind a person for a duration and disable him from doing anything other than running around, level 3 will
completely imobilize them. levels one and 2 can be negated by level 1 sight, but level 3 can only be negated by level 2 or above force sight
- make use of most of the singlesaber combos, groundstabs, and rollstabs's lack of force usage and you can do katas in the air :)
- Standing still or walking will double your force regeneration rate while meditating will increase it by a rate of 5

And also if there's any demand whatsoever i might make a port for linux servers.
