ABOUT THIS MANUAL
Mysteries of the Sith, a companion to Jedi
Knight, contains new levels, characters,
weapons and features that do not appear in
Jedi Knight. Some familiar Jedi Knight
features have a new twist or work differently
in Mysteries of the Sith. This manual
covers only the new features or features that
work differently from those in Jedi Knight.
If a Sith game feature is not covered in this
manual, it works like Jedi Knight, so consult
your Jedi Knight manual for full details.
ABOUT
MYSTERIES OF THE SITH
Though they are related, consider Jedi Knight
and Mysteries of the Sith as two separate
games. Because of software changes and
enhancements, your Jedi Knight settings,
saved players or games do not carry over to
Mysteries of the Sith. Mysteries of the
Sith settings, saved players or games do not
work in Jedi Knight.
INSTALLATION
NOTE: You will need the Jedi Knight Disc 2
to play Mysteries of the Sith for the first
time. Jedi Knight does not need to be
installed on your system, however. If you are
running short on hard drive space, you may
wish to uninstall Jedi Knight to make room.
1 Close all open windows on your desktop
and quit all other applications.
2 Put the Sith disc in your CD-ROM drive.
3 The Mysteries of the Sith Installation
menu will appear. If Autoplay is disabled, and
the game’s Installer does not appear when
you place the CD-ROM in the drive, then
Installer Screen
you’ll need to open the Installer 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 Sith.exe
file to open the Installer.
4 In the Installer, click the Install Mysteries
of the Sith button. Follow the onscreen
directions.
5 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.
6 Next, choose the destination for Mysteries
of the Sith installation. The default
Mysteries of the Sith directory is:
C:\\\Program Files\\\LucasArts\\MotS. (The
letter of your hard drive may be different.) If
this is not what you want, specify a different
drive and/or directory name. Click Next, then
Next again to start copying files. NOTE: We
recommend installing Sith to its own
directory, not the Jedi Knight directory.
7 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.
8 Setup will create a Mysteries of the Sith
Program Folder for the program icons. Click
Next to create a new folder or select an
existing folder. You’ll also have another
opportunity to view the Readme.
9 If the game is successfully installed, you
will see a Setup Complete screen.
10 If you do not have DirectX 5.0 installed
on your machine, you will be prompted to do
so. Insert Jedi Knight Disc 1, then click Yes.
DirectX will install. You will be prompted to
reinsert the Sith CD. Do so, then click Yes.
See the Jedi Knight or Sith Troubleshooting
Guides 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.
11 Once DirectX is installed, insert the
Mysteries of the Sith disc again, then you
are ready to play.
If You Have Trouble Installing
If you are having trouble installing the game,
see the Troubleshooting Guide for more
detailed installation and troubleshooting tips.
To access the Troubleshooting Guide:
1 Open the Launcher.
2 From the Launcher, click View
Troubleshooting Guide.
Running the Game
1 To run the game after installation, insert
the Mysteries of the Sith disc into your CD-
ROM drive. The game’s Launcher will appear
automatically if Autoplay is active. This
Launcher appears whenever you insert your
Mysteries of the Sith disc, when you
double-click the CD-ROM icon, or when you
select the Mysteries of the Sith shortcut
from your Start menu.
2 If Autoplay is disabled, find the Mysteries
of the Sith directory on your hard drive and
double-click Sith.exe or double-click the CD-
ROM icon, then double-click the
Sith.exe file, and select Play Mysteries of
the Sith in the Launcher to play the game.

3 Click Play Mysteries of the Sith in the
Launcher, which takes you to the opening
cutscene and then to the New Player screen.
4 NOTE: If you are playing for the first time,
you will be prompted to insert Jedi Knight
Disc 2. Insert the Jedi disc, then press
ENTER. You’ll be prompted to insert the
Mysteries of the Sith disc again. Do so,
then click OK.
Creating a New Player or
Selecting Existing Players
Create and select players in Mysteries of
the Sith as you would in Jedi Knight. See
the Jedi Knight manual for details. NOTE:
Players created in Jedi Knight cannot be
used in Mysteries of the Sith, or vice versa.
Save and Load Games
Save and load games in Mysteries of the
Sith as you would in Jedi Knight. See the
Jedi Knight manual for details. NOTE:
Games created and saved in Jedi Knight
cannot be played in Mysteries of the Sith,
or vice versa.
Adjusting for 3D Acceleration
(For 3D Accelerator Card Owners)
NOTE: If you are using 3D acceleration,
Mysteries of the Sith has new coloured
lighting effect option in the Display screen
that enhances lighting in the levels.
Otherwise, adjust 3D acceleration as you
would for Jedi Knight.
TO TURN THE COLOURED LIGHTING
EFFECT ON:
1 Select Setup from the Main Menu. (If you
Setup Display Screen
are already in the game, press ESC to get to
the Setup screen.)
2 From within Setup, click Display. Click the
Enable 3D Acceleration tickbox, then click
the Enable Coloured Lighting tickbox that
appears. NOTE: Checking this box may
adversely affect performance with certain
video cards, and can reduce the frame rate.
You may need to experiment by turning the
effect on or off to see whether the option
improves the look of the graphics without
making the game run too slowly.
3 To experiment, enter the game to see its
graphic quality and performance.
4 If the graphics look poor or the game runs
too slowly, return to the Display screen
(Press ESC, then Setup,
then Display) and uncheck the Enable
Coloured Lighting tickbox.
Setup Gameplay Screen
A tickbox has changed. The Jedi Knight Keep
Lightsaber tickbox on the Setup Gameplay
screen is now called Keep Preferred
Weapon in Sith. When this tickbox is
checked, you will not automatically mount
any weapon you pick up if you are carrying
your preferred weapon. Preferred weapons
are the lightsaber when you are playing a
single player game or the Jedi personality, rail
detonator for the Soldier personality,
carbonite gun for Bounty Hunter personality,
or stormtrooperrifle/electroscope for the
Scout personality in multiplayer games.
Setup Controls Screen
Mysteries of the Sith has a new option, the
Disable Windows Key tickbox on the
Options screen reached via the Controls screen.
Click this tickbox if your keyboard has a
Windows key and you want to disable it
during gameplay so the game is not affected if
you hit the key accidentally.
Setup Controls
Keyboard Screen
At this screen in Sith, several new options
appear in the list, including all the new Force
powers. This allows you to assign hot keys to
all the Force powers so you can use them
more quickly.
Setup Controls Joystick Screen
In the Setup Controls Joystick screen, the
Map Directly to Axis Value tickbox has
been changed so you can adjust input device
sensitivity more accurately than you could in
Jedi Knight. In Sith, when you select the
Map Directly to Axis Value tickbox, the
sensitivity slider changes to a sensitivity text
box with a decimal number. You can now
type in values lower than one to make
finer adjustments for devices like the Logitech
WingMan Warrior. See the Troubleshooting
Guide for additional joystick information.
Setup Controls Options Load
Configuration
Mysteries of the Sith has more controller
configuration sets added to the list. Select your
input device from the list.

MYSTERIES OF THE SITH
WEAPONS
Mysteries of the Sith has seven new
weapons and some differences from Jedi
Knight in the weapon key commands. See
below for the updated arsenal.
Hand to Hand/Lightsaber (1 key)
Note that the lightsaber has moved from the
O key to the 1 key. Press the 1 key to use fists
for hand-to-hand fighting, press 1 again to use
the lightsaber. Fists in primary mode (CTRL
key) produce a slow, damaging
hook, while the secondary mode (Z
key) is a fast punch. The lightsaber
works the same as it does in Jedi
Knight. Saber autoblocking is slightly
more effective when standing still than
when moving or running. Saber
blocking also works well when moving
backwards.
Blaster (Bryar Pistol) or
BlasTech DL-44 Pistol (2 key)
The Bryar pistol is Kyle’s
weapon, while Mara Jade
uses the BlasTech DL-44
pistol. The Bryar pistol works
as it did in Jedi Knight. For
Bryar Pistol
the BlasTech, hold down the
secondary fire button (Z key) for a
few seconds to release a number of
shots at once, up to four shots.
BRYAR PISTOL AND
BLASTECH AMMO: one energy
BlasTech
DL-44 Pistol
Energy
Cell
unit per fire.
Stormtrooper Rifle/
BlasTech E-11 Electroscope
(3 key)
Press the 3
key to switch
to the
stormtrooper
rifle, then press 3
BlasTech E-11
E-11
Electroscope
again to add the
electroscope cross
hairs. The storm-
Energy
Cell
trooper rifle works as it does in
Jedi Knight. Enhance the stormtrooper rifle
with the scope’s telescopic view so you can
pick enemies off from long range.
The electroscope’s shots do three times more
damage than the stormtrooper rifle and shots
travel more quickly and accurately. The
primary fire (CTRL key) fires a fast, heavy
shot. The secondary fire (Z key) is a toggle
between the two modes of operation
(automatic and manual zoom). To zoom
in/out manually, press secondary fire, then
use the Jump (X key) and Crouch (C key) keys
to zoom. Hit the primary fire key to shoot.
STORMTROOPER RIFLE AMMO: two energy
cells per fire.
ELECTROSCOPE AMMO: four energy cells
per fire.
Thermal Detonator/Flash
Bomb (4 key)
Hit the 4 key once
to use a thermal
detonator, press
4 twice to use the
flash bomb.
Thermal
Detonator
Flash Bomb
Thermal detonators work
as they do in Jedi
Knight. Flash
bombs blind enemies
temporarily with
Flash Bomb Belt
a white flash of light.
The severity of
the blindness
Thermal Detonator Belt
depends on how close
the enemy is when the flash bomb explodes.
Blindness clears up over time. The
flash bomb’s primary and secondary
fires produce timed explosions.
Bowcaster (5 key)
This crossbow-type
weapon from
Jedi Knight fires
bolts in a lethal
Bowcaster
spray and is good for group
situations in close quarters.
In primary fire, hold down
Power
Cell
the fire button to charge the bowcaster to fire
up to five bolts. Secondary fire shoots a
magnetically-sealed bolt that bounces off walls
and goes around corners.
AMMO: power cells.
Imperial Repeater Rifle (6 key)
As in Jedi Knight,
this rapid-fire rifle
lets you fire all three
barrels at once. The
primary mode
(CTRL key) delivers
Power Cell
Imperial
Repeater Rifle
a rapid single burst, while the secondary mode
(Z key) delivers a triple burst spread.
AMMO: power cells.
Rail Detonator/Seeker Rail
Detonator (7 key)
Hit the 7 key once to use the regular rail
detonator.
Press 7 again to
use the seeker
Rail
Detonator
rail detonator.
The rail
Rail Charges
detonator works
as it does
in Jedi Knight.
The new seeker rail
detonator acts as a homing
Seeker Rail
Detonator
Seeker Charges
missile. Press primary or
secondary fire keys to make the seeker home
in and explode on a target. If there is no
target, seekers act like regular rail detonators.
SEEKER AMMO: seeking rail charges.
RAIL DETONATOR AMMO: rail charges.
Auto Sequencer/Manual
Sequencer (8 key)
Press 8 to use the automatic
sequencer and press 8
again to use the manual
sequencer. The automatic
sequencer works as the
Manual
Sequencer
Detonator
sequencer charge does in
Jedi Knight. New manual
sequencers are bombs you
Auto or Manual
Sequencer Charge
can detonate at the press of a button. Charges
look the same for both the automatic and
manual sequencer, the difference is that the
detonator button will appear in your player’s
hand for manual mode. Use primary fire
(CTRL key) to place manual sequencer
charges (up to ten of them), then press
secondary fire (Z key) to explode them.
