===== Star Wars: Jedi Academy - Movies Battles II ======
This is one cool mod!
This info is old, good luck!
===== Movie Battles II Installation Guide ======
- Obtain a copy of __Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy__
- Grab it from somewhere used, it's dirt cheap!
- Grab it from [[mbii#steam_installation_notes|Steam]], it works with MBII!
- Install the game using your CDs/CD images. To mount the ISO downloads, you can use [[http://www.daemon-tools.cc/eng/downloads|DAEMON-Tools]]
**DO NOT** install cracks to bypass the CD check, you can't play online with these. The first CD must be inserted or mounted.
- Download **Jedi Academy Patch 1.01** and install
- Download the latest version of Movie Battles II and install it (more information and help available on their site): [[http://www.moviebattles.com/downloads]]
- Make sure you have the first CD of Jedi Academy inserted/mounted, then enjoy the game!
==== Steam Installation Notes ====
- You do not need to worry about CDs/ISOs or patching the game, that should be taken care of already.
- Navigate to the GameData folder (typically C:/Program Files/Steam/steamapps/common/Jedi Academy/GameData)
- Extract the mod to GameData.
- To run it, right click on Jedi Academy in your game library, and select "Set Launch Options" in the General tab.
- Add **+set fs_game "MBII"** to it, and it will run MBII whenever you start Jedi Academy.
==== Issues/Resolutions ====
=== Help! My game is crashing! ===
- Are you using a crack? Don't!
- Are you using a "mini" ISO? Don't!
- Is EAX enabled under sound options? Try disabling it.
- Make sure administrator privileges are enabled on **jamp.exe** (right click > properties > compatibility > tick "run program as administrator" under privilege level).
=== Need more help? ===
- Post on the U with error logs/screenshots/whatever you can find, we'll try to help. The MBII forums/wiki may be of use as well (available at [[http://www.moviebattles.com/]]).
==== Mini ISO ====
Remember all that junk about "don't use a mini ISO"? Well, if putting in your CD is too painful, you can try this [[http://underground.bananachan.net/jka_mini.iso|mini ISO]]. But if you see issues, it might be worth trying without!
===== Movie Battles Strategy =====
* Join the largest team.
* Join the winning team.
* If the largest team is not the winning team, feel free to encourage others to join the winning team until it is the largest.
* Use reinforcements.
* If someone calls you a name, kill them regardless of team affiliation.
* You can never have enough lightsabers on your team. The other classes are just for show.
* If you do happen to venture to other classes, bounty hunters are a good place to start. Thermal detonators and poison darts are to be used haphazardly.
* Rocket jumping (firing your rocket(s) at the ground) is effective, try it out!
* Taunt often.
