I recently embarked on a Rare binge. Banjo-Kazooie all day with beer.
Weird, I contemplated doing that myself a while back. I had the urge to play an old school N64 style adventure so I was trying to decide between Mario 64, Donkey Kong 64 and Banjo-Kazooie.
I ended up playing Diablo 2 but the thought was there.
It was a bit of a unique time for 3d platformers, that brand of games doesn't really exist anymore.
Well, I work in a gaming company, so I get a yearly game-purchase allowance. I like to use it, so that I have all the games that I might fancy playing at some point.Last 2 years sucked for those sales, especially the new type of sales, now I couldnt even give less fucks about them. What I wanted i already have and even though i's on sale the prices still suck for polish peasants, we can get it cheaper on our auction sites buying russian cd keys :3
Fuck I have spent like 3 hours trying to get Jedi Knights II: Jedi Outcast running on Windows 10, The game loads to first menu now but the menu has no text, im stuck.
I am not home to test it but to get Jedi Academy working I used OpenJK which is basically just an engine update that adds compatibility and support for more advanced modding. I made a dumb mod and added all the Jedi/Sith from the movies to the game (like Sidious and Kenobi) so I can make them fight. .I even added a few expanded universe characters so I could participate in 20 v 20 Sith vs Jedi lightsaber fights. Sadly I get owned unless I cheat a little since obviously I had to make many of them much more skilled and harder to kill than Desann would be, but it is still entertaining to watch if you are a nerd like me.
Sorry if this is full of typos I am on my phone and the new forum no longer lets me see what I am typing afterr three lines. Wish I could get a new phone...
Anyway I know OpenJK works for Jedi Academy so it SHOULD work with Jedi Outcast. You might have to look.
