Darth Vader Game Rumors

by Maarten Goldstein Mar 29, 2004 9:03pm CST tags: Activision, LucasArts, Jedi Knight 2, Rumor
From the rumor department comes this Eurogamer news item about a Darth Vader game being in development at LucasArts. Supposedly, the action game where you play as Vader would be a third person perspective one, no word on release platforms or much else though (and a "no comment" from LucasArts' European distributor Activision). Announcement at E3 perhaps?

Raven programmer James Monroe updated his .plan file with some info for Jedi Knight 2 players who have a Matrox Parhelia videocard. Typing "r_allowExtensions 1" and "vid_restart" in the console should fix slow performance.

JK2 Version Issues

by Maarten Goldstein Jul 17, 2002 11:45am CST tags: Jedi Knight 2
Raven's Kenn Hoekstra updated his .plan file offering help for those with a Jedi Knight 2 server. Some people are still seeing 1.03 as version number after upgrading. Shutting down the server for some 10 minutes should help it, as the Jedi Knight 2 master server will send a new heartbeat and report the correct version number. Additionally, Kenn mentions Raven is looking to hire several people.
