Do YOU guys have any mods for Jedi Outcast we need to know? Post them in the comments below and share them with us!!!

[@Lyorran]

Hi, I was quite late because being on other things, but just for information, I was integrating for the next update of Expanded Menu some bugfixes to be more like an unoficial patch of the game. :) Currently the Mod already includes HD Loading Screens. After/soon it will include an intro skiping too, all languages available for the game will be compiled in, new ingame music menu, some camera presets, some new menu fields like manual saber block, weapons position fixes for 4:8/16:9/16:10 screens, the crosshair size and position fixes, add transparancy on HUD to be a little more modern, little improvements and fixes on NPCs, scripts for make NPCs follow or no the player, some shaders fixes, dismemberment for German version, background video option in main menu, etc... Lyo.

[@Kelphelp]

Oh shit it's my boy Lyorran! Damn I didn't know the mod included so much content including new ones on the way! Dude I really appreciate what you have done for Jedi Outcast, you really breathed new life into thr game with such an amazing UI especially for multi-player. I'm especially looking forward to a good weapon FOV since it seemed too far back atm so that is gonna be an incredibly new change! Thanks so much for your hard work!

[@Ay-xq7mj]

Its not a mod but big fix I havent seen anyone mention. cg_gunz cg_guny cg_gunx These adjsut position of the viewmodel even their distance to camera which makes it so you can SEE THE ACTUAL GUNS.

[@TheTrueNicklose]

What are the odds you upload a video the exact same day I'm looking for this sort of video? Really great list, thanks for the recommendations!

[@Kelphelp]

I am the magic man that knows exactly what you are thinking :3 glad to help my Boi!

[@domfiglhuber]

Great video! Currently looking into modding my Outcast and this is the perfect start. Thank you!

[@Kelphelp]

I hope this helps man! Good luck getting it modded!

[@Pulang_Diwa]

Great and comprehensive review. Very professional. I was never bored. Thank you. 😊

[@Kelphelp]

I really appreciate that! Thank you so much for your kind words!

[@evaone4286]

Modded my Jedi outcast 2 game last summer for the ultimate experience. Oh baby, ran it in 4ķ, upscaled textures, put RTX shadows and effects on that bad boy, simply AMAZING. I modded mine and still retained the original feel of everything so I wouldn't miss out. Beat both Outcast 2 and Academy that summer!!

[@Kelphelp]

Excuse me RTX? I didn't know Jedi Outcasy & Academy has ray tracing. You have a link and source to it?

[@domfiglhuber]

@@Kelphelp Check this Install-Video kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z2ekgaN6nKlop5o Example game is AC IV Black Flag but it works on pretty much every game with ReShade :)

[@Kelphelp]

Damn so essentially you can get a ray traced look with a Reshade?!? Okay...I might need to do so. Just got a 3060 so it's perfect

[@domfiglhuber]

@@Kelphelp Do it, it looks amazing! And actually it's "Path Tracing" in this case so it works with every GPU, even non-RTX and AMD :D Just worth noting.

[@thegrimm54321]

Dude thank you SO much for making this video. I know I'm 2 years late, but I'm getting things set up for my first playthrough in a decade. I never ever mod games to "update them," but....idk man this game needs a bit of a touch up in comparison to its predecessors lol

[@Kelphelp]

Hahahaha naw thank you for the watch! Agreed in the sense there needs to be a bit of modernization and this guide does help to that. Makes an amazing game just that much better. What's there not to love?

[@mightymochi6320]

This probably my favorite star wars game of all time. Had so much fun with this one as a kid. Story and gameplay was epic. Multiplayer was a blast.

[@Kelphelp]

It still slaps to this day. Amazing people play on the servers here

[@icarus2k]

Thanks for the video, the mods make my game look good and playable 20 years later.

[@Kelphelp]

Exactly what I love to hear! Glad to hear man!!!

[@dinodefender]

This is my favorite video on the Holonet.

very handsome, king of jedi

[@Kelphelp]

I wonder if a Jedi king exists 🤔

[@Wazgrel]

Thank you for the guide, time to reinstall Jedi Outcast II!

[@Kelphelp]

My pleasure man! This will make thr game pretty A1!

[@miloszgolik8684]

Thank you for this guide. Very helpful. Cheers

[@Kelphelp]

Always glad to help! Enjoy mate@

[@alank3174]

Thanks this was a great guide

[@Kelphelp]

Hella glad it helped in some way!!!

[@empty2892]

Great guide, as always. Will keep this one in mind whenever I'm up for another playthrough. As for the glossy effect in one of the texture packs, that's apparently something that makes it look more "HD" in the minds of some people. If you check the latest GTA Trilogy remaster trailer, you can see the same shitty gloss all over the new character models.

[@Kelphelp]

I do remember during PS3 days that the glossy look was all over so many titles to just highlight that HD feature, I do remember that being prominent. I think its def different for the GTA trilogy since the art style is much, much more stylized but I feel what you mean.

[@LyricalViking]

A little tip I quickly figured out. PK3 is just a form of zip file compression, so any windows device can open up PK3 files through file explorer,winrar,etc. So if you want the best experience download all of these mods accordingly then open up the FX pk3 file, and delete any of the player models you dislike, I deleted all of the humanoids that didn't have any form of armor or didn't have reptilian skin. Replace those models with the ones from the upscaled mod. Make sure the FX mod is loaded right after the upscaled textures mod as well, so it'll overwrite anything the upscaled textures does. Now you have the best of both worlds.

[@Kelphelp]

That's...kind of busted actually and never knew that at all. Thanks so much for this tip, it's pretty invaluable.

[@mikeshaver-miller745]

I get really great results out of config file tweaks and Nvidia Control Panel to enable things like Multi-Frame Sampled AA, 16x anisotropic filtering, massive framerate improvements and even realistic saber combat, which turns your lightsaber into a deathtrap

[@Kelphelp]

Good method to do too. Makes the game as clean as hell. Good shit

[@Fancy2209Real]

There is a mod listed in PCGamingWiki wich is really good called Widescreen Crosshair Mod, fixed your issue with the Crosshair

[@Kelphelp]

Ah so maybe that'd why there was that issue. I assumed the mod fixed that but maybe it for sure didn't. Appreciate letting me know! 🙏

[@martianmanhunter8219]

Great video man.. may i suggest the splinter cell series

[@Kelphelp]

On PC? Possibly. I'll look Into it.

[@martianmanhunter8219]

what do you play for jk2? The PC version doesn't look like this, etc .... are you playing on a console or what? Great video.

Well this is on PC. Don't know what else to tell ya

[@mamas.8259]

👌👌👌👌👌

[@Phantron]

the general patches you have linked are not needed for Steam versions right? (same for Republic Commando)

[@Kelphelp]

Nope. All patches are updated with digital versions.

[@RetroGamerBB]

I've had the Jedi Knight games installed for years. There was a mega mod for academy but I think it got yanked. I always replace Kyle with Dooku. It's just what I do

[@Kelphelp]

Tons that do man but for essentials I always loved these. Really are game changers

[@UltimateDominion]

@@Kelphelp Agreed, especially Expanded Menu, which improves the game basically in every way(the pros far out weigh the cons by miles), that is the type of mod I have been looking for since basically my childhood, and to see something like it in action is amazing beyond words. :)

[@jeremichenh8487]

Hello and big thanks men! I'm trying to install all of these but i got problem's.. When i want to execute the patch it said to me that it can't find the game Outcast II, someone knows what's wrong and has got any issue pls?

[@Kelphelp]

What version did you get? Steam or physical?

[@jeremichenh8487]

@@Kelphelp Good question, i have Steam version and the patch require the physical one i guess

[@Kelphelp]

Yup the patch is ONLY for Physical and not steam. Steam has its own official patches installed

[@leoxardisimo]

Anyone knows where to download a NOT STRETCHED HUD for Widescreen resolutions??

[@Kelphelp]

No.

[@ironwingthecreepypasta5086]

does "install patch 1.04" refer to the physical copy of the game?

[@Kelphelp]

Yes! So make sure to get the uodate file first then install the mod. All digital copies are already updated

[@00alman]

Hey guys, I`ve got a problem with the 4k Ai Upscale Mod. Everytime I install it my game crashes while loading into a new game oder loaded savegame. What do I wrong?

[@Kelphelp]

What's your load order? Did you follow the Readme? Also it's possible it doesn't like old saves so you need to start fresh.

[@00alman]

@@Kelphelp Hi, thank you fot the quick response. Yes I´ve followed the readme, but even a new installation and a new game didn´t work for me. I´m using the steam version.

[@Kelphelp]

Hmmmm then not sure ehat to tell you man. If you started like clean (meaning no residual files in the installation folder) and Readme didn't work idk what to say man. Usually it should. Maybe retrace your steps or start over. Sorry dont have much to go on

[@00alman]

@@Kelphelp Oh, now I´m sad. Thanks anyway. :)

[@tomsko863]

Thank you for this list. Some of it helps but not a single one improves the garbage gunplay in Outcast. Almost all of the weapons are flat out terrible. Namely the blasters, bow, grenades, repeater, etc. Grenades have everything wrong with them. Blaster projectiles move way too slow. Bowcaster spread is too large or projectiles are too small. All the weapons can do with some tweaks to make them less of a pain to use. Do you know of any mods to improve the gunplay? How about improve the enemy AI? or give more variety to enemies? Finally, do any of these mods fix the creepy teeth???

[@Kelphelp]

First time I heard someone say the gunplay is terrible considering its built on the Quake 3 engine, and a great one at that. Guess you might be on the minority on that one so can't say I know mods.

[@tomsko863]

@@Kelphelp Maybe because you interact with a small community of people that all share a similar opinion? Is Outcast known as the greatest shooter of all time? I seemed to have missed that in my "Advanced Game History" class at University. I don't see what you're trying to say. Maybe you're just endulging in little too much in the positive feedback loop of your KZbin comments. It is a 20 year old game so they majority of people who would still care would be people who enjoyed it the first time around and want to again. Next point, what does it matter what engine it's built off of? "Quake III Arena", "Return to Castle Wolfenstein", "Star Trek: Voyager - Elite Force 1 & 2", and "Call of Duty" were all made with the same engine. Do they all feel like the same game? Even "Return to Castle Wolfenstein" and "Enemy Territory" were made at the same time, for the same series, with the same engine, but by different companies; and they were very different games. A game Engine does NOT make a good game. There isn't an "Easy Button" to use when developing it just because another game used the same engine. Finally, you cannot say, with a straight face, they you can hit a MOVING target that is 10ft away while moving yourself with a blaster, or a bow, or any pew-pew weapon in this game. The whole gameplay for the last 2/3rds of the game is "Force Push" and Slash while they're down. And that gets boring very fast now that I'm not 10 years old. So again, are there any mods that makes the gameplay "less-sh*t"? Increased projectile speed or projectile size would really help make the game more enjoyable. Or to be able to change the damage scaling per weapon.

[@marcoslaudrup6225]

works for jedi academy???

[@Kelphelp]

Nope. This is entirely for outcast. I have a guide on Jedi Academy actually
