CHECKING YOUR SYSTEM

If you are not sure if your computer

meets the system requirements to run Jedi Knight, you can analyse your computer before installing.

1 Insert the Jedi Knight Disc 1 into your

CD-ROM drive. The Installation menu should appear.

2 Click the Analyse Your Computer

button to run the system checker. This makes sure your system meets the basic requirements for running the game. The dialog tells you right away if your system does not meet

Analyse Your Computer Results

requirements by listing an item as “Failed” in the list.

3 If your system doesn’t meet the requirements, you may not be able to play the game. 4 Make sure you have enough free space (at least 60MB) on your hard drive (for the

minimum installation). You’ll need at least 40MB for the game and 20MB free space for swap files.

5 If your system passes the system checker, you are ready to install Jedi Knight.

Click OK.

6 See the Readme and Troubleshooting Guide for more details on checking your system

and system requirements.

INSTALLATION

1 Close all open windows on your desktop and quit all other applications.

2 Put the Jedi Knight Disc 1 in your CD-ROM drive. 3 The Jedi Knight Installation menu will appear. If

Autoplay is disabled, and the game’s Launcher does not appear when you place the CD-ROM in the drive, then you’ll need to open the Launcher manually. To do this: Double-click the My Computer icon, then double-click the CD-ROM icon in the window that opens. Double-click the Jedi.exe file to open the Launcher. It has these options:

Ω Install Jedi Knight: Install the game on your hard

drive.

Ω View Readme: We strongly suggest you open the

Readme to view the most up-to-date technical information.

Ω Troubleshooting: See the Troubleshooting Guide for detailed installation and

troubleshooting tips.

Installation Menu

JEDI KNIGHT: DARK FORCES II

Ω Analyse Your Computer: This button runs a system checker to make sure your

system meets the basic requirements for running the game. See Checking Your System above for details.

Ω Exit to Windows: Returns you to your desktop.

4 To install, click the Install Jedi Knight button. Follow the onscreen instructions to

setup and install.

5 You will be prompted to select a 2D video resolution. The low-res option (320 x 200)

increases game performance, but graphics quality may suffer. The high-res option (640 x 480) is only for users with high-end machines and video cards. If you are not sure about your system, pick low-res. Other video resolution options are available within the game.

6 You’ll be asked to select low-res or high-res sound. Low-res is the default setting.

WARNING: Choosing high-res can adversely affect performance. Pick high-res only if

your system has at least 32MB of RAM.

7 You will be asked to choose size of installation (Minimum, Standard and Complete).

Minimum is not recommended for low-end machines, but select it if you are short on hard drive space. The load times will be very slow. Standard is recommended for most machines. The Complete install is recommended for low-end machines and will improve load times and overall performance.

8 Next, choose the destination for Jedi Knight installation. The default Jedi Knight

directory is: C:\\Program Files\\LucasArts\\Jedi Knight. (The letter of your hard drive

may be different.) If this is not what you want, specify a different drive and/or directory name.

9 Setup will create a Jedi Knight Program Folder for the program icons. Click Next to

create a new folder or select an existing folder, then click Next.

10 You’ll be given the option to create a series of shortcuts. Creating a shortcut will make

it easier for you to find the game and start it up. Click the tickboxes to deselect any shortcuts you don’t want. You’ll also have another opportunity to view the Readme.

11 If the game is successfully installed, you will see a Setup Complete screen. 12 While installing Jedi Knight, you will be asked to install Microsoft’s DirectX, which is

necessary to run the game. If you have not installed DirectX 5.0 on your machine before, then you will be prompted to do so. You can also select to install or reinstall DirectX by choosing Readme and Troubleshooting from the Launcher, then select Install DirectX 5.0. If you are not sure if DirectX 5.0 will work on your machine, choose Readme and Troubleshooting from the Launcher, and select Analyse Your Computer to see if your hardware has DirectX 5.0-certified drivers installed. Click OK when finished. See the Troubleshooting Guide for more information on DirectX. NOTE: You may be prompted to insert your Windows 95 CD-ROM while installing DirectX. It’s a good idea to analyse your system after installing DirectX to see if everything is in order.

13 Now you are ready to play Jedi Knight.

select a different difficulty for it.

3 Click OK to save your player’s name, then the Main Menu will open.

JEDI KNIGHT: DARK FORCES II

switches your weapon to the next available weapon. No dangerous weapons (MP): This does not allow the automatic switch to arm potentially dangerous weapons.

Ω Automatic reload weapon (MP): This reloads a previously emptied weapon when

you pick up some ammo for it. It does not load dangerous weapons if you have No

dangerous weapons checked. Keep lightsaber (MP): This allows you to keep the lightsaber regardless of the

weapons you pick up.

ADJUSTING FOR 3D ACCELERATION

(For 3D Accelerator Card Owners)

Jedi Knight has Direct3D support

and will run Direct3D-compatible 3D acceleration cards. If you have a supported 3D accelerator card, you can enable 3D acceleration for better display performance. For more on specific 3D acceleration cards and up-to-date information and developments, see the Readme, Troubleshooting Guide, or the Technical Support section of the LucasArts Web page (www.lucasarts.com). Also, consult the manufacturer’s documentation that comes with your 3D card.

NOTE: Some 3D accelerator cards

are incompatible with Jedi Knight.

To configure your particular 3D accelerator card:

1 To adjust your video settings, select Setup from the Main Menu. (If you are already in the game, press ESC to get to

2 From within Setup, click Display. 3 Click the Enable 3D Acceleration

tickbox. If the tickbox does not appear, your 3D card may not be compatible with the game.

4 Choose the video resolution best suited for your card and system. A common one to try is 640 x 480. You may need to experiment to see which resolution gives the best performance while looking the best. NOTE: Most displays will not be able to run at resolutions higher than 640 x 480.

5 To experiment, enter the game to see its graphic quality and performance.

6 If the graphics look poor or the game runs too slowly, return to the Display screen (Press ESC, then Setup, then Display) and select a different resolution. Return to the Setup screen.

7 You may need to set a minimum 3D texture size. See the page under 3D Accelerator Minimum Texture Size for details.

frame rate). You can select to enable 3D acceleration if you have a 3D accelerator card. See the Adjusting for 3D Acceleration section above for details on doing this. If you do not have a 3D card, the game defaults to software settings. In general, setting a higher resolution produces better graphics, but can slow down game performance. Experiment to see which resolution works best on your machine. 320 x 200 is recommended for users with slower machines. (Resolutions that say “ModeX” after them generally are slower than non-ModeX resolutions of the same dimensions.) 640 x 480 is recommended for users with higher-end machines. Some display cards are unable to use modes above 640 x 480. Only advanced users should use resolutions above 640 x 480.

Ω Screen Brightness: Move the slider either way to adjust screen brightness in the

game.

This is a list of screen resolutions that can be selected (which affects the

JEDI KNIGHT: DARK FORCES II

Ω View Size: Adjusting this slider

changes the size of the game window. Slide to the left for a smaller window, to the right for a larger window. Keep in mind that the larger the window is, the slower the game will play. A smaller window will increase performance. You can also change the window size during gameplay by pressing the + and - keys.

Ω 3D Accelerator Minimum Texture

Size: Certain 3D accelerator cards have

Controls Screen

a limit on the minimum texture size used. The default setting is 1, but if you have a Matrox Mystique card, type 8 in the box. If you have a NEC PowerVR card, type 32 in the box. If you have any other brand card, leave the setting at 1. See the Troubleshooting Guide for more detail.

Ω Back Buffer in System Memory: If

translucent windows and water, checking this option may improve performance. If you don’t experience a slowdown in performance, disregard this option. See the Readme and Troubleshooting Guide for more information.

Sound Screen

Here, you can adjust the volume for the game’s sound effects and music.

Ω Enable Aureal 3D Sound: Tickbox appears if you have Aureal 3D sound card. Click

tickbox to enable spatialised sound effects. If you are unsure, leave it unchecked.

Ω Music Volume: Move the slider to the left to turn down music, and to the right to

turn it up.

Ω SFX Volume: Adjusts the volume of sound effects up and down. Ω Digital Channels: This slider affects how many sound effects can play at one time. In

general, leave this slider alone unless you have a high-end machine. Moving the slider to the right makes more sounds play at once. Adjusting the slider too high can hurt game performance. Adjust the slider down if you find that sounds are skipping or getting cut off.

Ω Using Low-Res/High-Res Sounds: This message indicates which sound set you

chose during the install process. NOTE: It is possible to change the sound set (either low-res or high-res) that you chose during installation by uninstalling and reinstalling

JEDI KNIGHT: DARK FORCES II

the game. Select the other set of sounds during installation to change it. Be sure to save your players when prompted, or you will lose any saved games made with those players.

Map Screen

Selecting this option lets you see a 3D wire-frame map of the explored area to give you a sense of its size and layout. The white circle marks your location. The buttons along the bottom of the map control it. When you have the overlay map turned on, press +or - to zoom the map in and out. Click the various arrows to rotate or move the 3D model in different directions. If the map is rotating, the solid button stops and recentres the map. The upside-down triangle button closes the 3D map. You must be in this map or the overlay map (TAB key) to use Force Seeing to see enemies, pedestrians and items through walls.

Jedi Powers Screen

This screen opens the Force Power Allocation screen where you can check your Jedi Rank, your morality on the Morality Scale and which Force abilities you have. You cannot alter the Force Power Allocation screen from here. See the Assigning Force Power Stars section on page 28 for a full description.
