![]() So long as you are playing on a LAN, you won't need to do any port forwarding, but should you wish to open your game across the internet, you can do that as well. The setup for server usage and basically the same for every mod you may wish to use, however, you'll have to follow their instructions for slight variations on the process. To customize your server settings, you can do so in base/server.cfg, which is one of the included files in the download above. The asterisks represent numbers that could literally be anything between 0 and 255. It's most likely something along the lines of 192.168.*.*. Back in game, once you know your local ip address, you can open the console shift+~ and type /connect yourIPhere. This will reveal your connections and you should be able to isolate which one is yours. If you can't find your server in the LAN list, you can find your local ip easily by going into command prompt and typing ipconfig. It should show up in your game's server list under the LAN category/ From here, you can connect directly to it, as can your friends on LAN. Leave that open as this is your server in action. If all goes smoothly, as it should on a fresh install, your server will start in a command prompt window. You'll essentially be launching jampDed.exe, but there is a specific way to do it that you can't do simply by clicking on it. To launch the server, just follow the instructions in readme.txt. Otherwise, you have just v1.0 (unless you manually patched the game yourself, you would know). If you have the steam version, you should have v1.01. Again, make sure you select the correct version. There are a variety of different servers you can host, depending on the mods you have, but for standard JKA, use this: ĭownload and then put those files in your gamedata folder. When you click on the server, a password box will pop up.(fig 10) Type in the password you found on the server information screen.It's fairly easy to host a server and then friends can join either on the same LAN or across the internet as well. This indicates that the server is passworded. (fig 9) Notice the lock symbol, which I've ringed. The server should then appear in the main window. Once you've typed in the IP address and port number, you will need to click the 'Get New List' (fig 8). It's a good idea to download them all, though, if you can do so. You will need some of these before the server will let you join. Note the Mods/Extras box, ringed in fig 7. These you may need to write down if your run JA in fullscreen mode. The IP address and the password have been ringed (in figure 6). As an example, I've used the jk3-home server page. The server information page should then come up. Click on the name of the server you want to join. First, make sure you're registered and logged in to the website. Where can I find the IP address of the server? Don't forget the port number (the bit after the colon) otherwise you might not be able to connect to the right server. In this box, type in the IP address of the server you're looking for. Next, on the bottom of the screen, click on 'New Favourite' (figure 4) This will bring up the IP address box (fig. To do this, in the top right hand box, click on 'Source' till Favorites appears as shown in figure 3. In the next screen, you will need to tell the game where to look for the server. Then when the next screen comes up, click on 'Join a game' as shown in Figure 2. When the start screen comes up, press "multiplayer".įigure one shows the first in-game screen. ![]() Firstly, you need to ensure that the JA cd is in the CD Drive. I'm going to demonstrate how to log in to the jk3-home server, as this is the one most people use. The servers that start with are for JO, and the ones which start with jk3 are for JA. There are 10 servers all up, 4 for the game Jedi Academy:Jedi Outcast (JK2 or JO), 5 for JA and one running TeamSpeak. ![]() ![]() (or the Academy as we like to call it) has a few private servers. You've found the best place possible to learn every aspect of the game Jedi Knight:Jedi Academy (JK3 or JA) Welcome to the academy! If you're reading this, chances are you're new. 1.2.4: Connecting to our game servers - o2b - Jun 09 04:03am ![]()
