Additional Comments
People have had complaints since upgrading to the latest Fedora (Constantine/12) because the game will not run. "jamp.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close" pops up each time I tried to run the game.
Multiplayer

For those new to the game and are interested in learning more, or looking for a resource site check out the JA (thejediacademy.net). It has a wiki with lots of info related to the game. If you sign up, you have access to private servers located in USA and Europe. It's fairly active, and doesn't have the drama like public servers do.
The members are more than willing to teach you how to play better. Look it up if interested.
If you are interested in CTF (Capture the flag) visit beyondsuppression.com; it's the most active CTF community.
If you are into competitive team gameplay, visit esl.eu
If you want a realistic movie-like Star Wars experience, download the MovieBattles II mod; a total conversion that is nothing like the original game. www.moviebattles.com
Some public servers I recommend are..
JK Series Euro (public server, not a clan server)
Peace Europark (popular server, but runs JA+ mod)
Peace Fortknox (Duel server)
Terminative³ Public/Home server
Master Cemetery (duel server)
DeutscherDuellServer
there are of course MANY more servers. These are just a few that I play on.
!!Please Note!!: I am not advertising clans/teams/or the like. I am simply trying to spark interest in different areas of the game for new players. I am noticing more and more players online are using Linux. Good sign!
Open Gl and Vm_game
by Miguel on Tuesday December 29th 2009, 16:04
When I run the game, it opens a console and says that Open Gl fails.
I once managed to open the game but still when it was loading the levels, it said Vm_game failed.
Mouse lag issue
by Juan Pablo Bouza on Friday November 20th 2009, 6:49
I´m experiencing a kind of mouse lag issue with MOHAA, Jedi Academy and NOLF 1. The games run smoothly while not moving the mouse, but when I look around with it, it seems that fps drop down.
I´m not quite sure if fps drop down, or if the problem is some kind of mouse refresh issue.
Some screens are white
by Mike on Saturday May 30th 2009, 13:09
It's been a while since I've played Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy, but I'm revisiting both games now and some screens are completely white for me with wine-1.1.22 (last time I played was probably with wine-1.0). With Jedi Outcast I only saw the white screens on some cut scenes and the Lucas Arts animation when you first load the game. I also see the latter in Jedi Academy, but this time I had a problem with the in game screen being white (except for the hud) after I loaded a save. Reloading didn't help, I had to completely exit and load the save before I could play again.
Anyone else? Maybe I'll mess around with my graphics settings.
Hmm, almost perfect!

One VERY big problem with it is, that I cant open the console, which I use daily (I m an admin of one server) so if ya can tell me how to fix it, I d be rly glad :D
Thx
Not finding CD
by Joel Montgomery on Tuesday May 27th 2008, 21:10
I'm running Wine 1.0-rc2 and when I try to run the install, everything goes well until the app asks me for the second installation CD. I insert the disc and no matter which drive I select to install from, the CD is not recognized by wine, even though my Ubuntu Hardy Heron distro picks it right up.
Errors in wine 0.9.57
by Jonan on Tuesday March 25th 2008, 20:36
I've tried this game with wine 0.9.57 and it works perfect in multiplayer mode, but I wasn't able to play it in single player.
I updated to the 1.01 version and now I'm able to star a single player game, but the program will crash when loading a new mission so I can only do the training part.
A small update on the game: I played through the whole game again. The bug with the second cult mission posted above(test data) can be avoided by just not doing the mission. For the rest, only the last mission has some really messed up textures, for the rest, the game plays flawlessly.
Nothing happens
by Arho on Tuesday January 29th 2008, 8:12
I have succesfully installed JK2:Jedi Academy from cd, but when
I try to run it, nothing happens. It doesn't even give an error
message, but JK2:Jedi Outcast(the previous part of the game) works.
What should I do?
