::Install::
- Windows
Create a directory like this:
X:\Path\to\Star Wars Jedi Knight Jedi Academy\GameData\reload where 'X:\Path\to\Star Wars Jedi Knight Jedi Academy\'
is the path where you installed Jedi Academy. Now you can start the server with the '+set fs_game reload' argument.
Example:
jampDed +set fs_game reload +set dedicated 1 +exec server.cfg +exec reloaded.cfg This will start your server,
load the reload mod, made the server dedicated and be listed on the master servers. Then exect the two config files,
to configure your server.
- Linux
Where ever your installation of Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy is, for example: '/home/orion/ja/gamedata'
In '/home/orion/ja/gamedata' create a directory 'reload', or extract the reload folder from the .tar.gz archive.
If you created the directory, extract the files from the reload directory in th archive, to '/home/orion/ja/gamedata/reload' .
You may also need to overwrite the file in your base folder. Now you can start the server with the '+set fs_game reload' argument
Example:
./linuxjampded +set fs_game reload +set dedicated 1 +exec server.cfg +exec reloaded.cfg This will start your server,
load the reload mod, make the server dedicated and be listed on the master servers. Then exec the two config files, to configure your server.
::About::
This mod is the official mod for the Jedi Academy. A server-side only modification designed to keep the peace and order on the servers.
With that in mind, I set out and improved this mod with the way I wanted it to in the past. It's loaded with Admin Commands,
Client Commands, Options, and cVars; Extremely modified to meet any clans expectations. This is truly the only mod you will ever need to
use that doesn't alter the normal gameplay of Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy® Please visit us at http://www.thejediacademy.net,

::New In This Version::
---New Features---
* Return of Protect from the Jedi Academy Mod.
* Added amdmginfo which will display if the servers run a modified damage setting from basejk.
* Added ProtectGun/UnprotectGun.
* Added duel time to the Private Duel Stats, is in the format mm:ss.
* Added amteleme/jkteleme - teleports the admin who executed the command to the given x,y,z,yaw coordinates.
* Added amffduelchallenge, to allow for Full Force Private Duels.
o Players in duel do not do damage, or absorb health/force when using force to any none dueler near them. The same goes for non duelers using force near two Full Forcer duelers.
o Player not in a duel do not do damage, or absorb health/force when using force, and are near FF duelers.
o g_mFFPrivateDuels MUST be set to 1 to use.
o Recommended to bind amffduelchallenge to a key.
* Added a few emotes: amsit, amsit2, amwait, amjig, and amquiet. Enabled/Disable emotes with cVar.
* Added commands to add/removed and list both the Profanity List and Bad Names List.
o maddprof, mremprof, mlistprof, maddname, mremname, mlistnames
* Extended the use of g_mDuelStats CVar, setting it to 1 shows stats to only the two duelers, setting it to 2 shows stats to all players.
* Extended the profanity filter that allows for it to be applied to names, using a cVar to enable the extention.
* Extended the use of the \tell command. It can now take in player's names instead of just client ids.
* Removed the g_mFlipKick, until I decide if I want it back in and 100% working.
* Removed mvstr, due to extreme exploit that existed in the command.
* Improved damage issues found in Linux and Windows servers.
o The Linux version is now compiled with the tools used by Raven to make the base jampgamei386.so
* Improved kick and kick ban, made the <reason> argument optional, if a reason is not given the kick message cVar value is used instead. The client is notified that they are about to be kicked, and a CVar controlled time delay will show them the warning for that many seconds and count down, then kick them.
* Added an alias so admins no longer have to bring down the console to do amsay or mpsay.
o To do mpsay from the chat modes, simply use the team chat mode, add a @ to the front of the message. example: "say @ hi admins" With out the "" and there MUST be a space after @.
o To do amsay from the chat modes, simply use the normal chat mode, add a @ to the front of the message. example: "say_team @ hi admins" With out the "" and there MUST be a space after @.
* Fixed projectile deflection, thanks to Andrew "Mushroom" Kerr, for the fix.
* Fixed issue in Profanity Filter where it would filter out words like, "class", "bass", "Good Fight", "^1class".

* Fixed the bug with g_mAllowTeamSuicide not letting player \kill with this set to 1.
* Fixed the bug where doing "\ignore all" or "\mrename all <name>" would crash the server. Those commands are not ment to be used with the keyword 'all'.
* Fixed wall grab bug, where doing a grab on a incline would cause the player to slide up the surface.
* Fixed bug in a few commands where not giving all the arguments would cause a full screen message to still be printed.
* Fixed basejk bug with voting that cause to overwrite the lockteam values, so locking teams seemed to be broken.
* Fixed bug with sleep, where the player would not be ejected from a vehicle. Thanks to cHoSeN-oNe.
