If you have any issues, please review these frequently asked questions before you report it.

Q: Is “STAR WARS: Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy” required to play this mod?
A: Yes, it’s essential. This is a modification for Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy and not a separate game. In order to play this mod, you need to install the game and upgrade the game version to the latest version (v1.1), via the game’s official patch.
We also suggest checking the ReadMe, for the full installation instructions.

Q: When will the mod reach its 100% conclusion?
A: At this point, all we can say is.. Only when it's done. Whilst our team is very skilled, we’re only a relatively small group of people, with personal lives and a limited amount of time. However, we are working effortlessly to bring you the best mod, possible.

Q: When will the next version of the mod be released?
A: Stay tuned to the #movie-duels-announcements section in Discord or our ModDB page, where you'll be informed and notified about each new, publicly available version and what's coming next, in future updates.

Q: Is this mod playable on a Mac?
A: Unfortunately, no. This mod is currently ONLY supporting Windows PCs, right now. If we find someone who can do a Mac version, we can consider it for future updates.

Q: My game starts, but when I click on a new mission, it returns me back to the Main Menu.
A: That's because you have to use the mini-image/CD (Steam users should already have the Non-CD fix).

Q: I have OpenJK installed already, but when I start a mission, I can't see any models and the cut-scenes are broken.
A: This is a common bug with OpenJK. You have to delete the OpenJK folder in your “Gamedata” folder.

Q: I can't play the mod. Because it freezes, at the very first loading screen.
A: If you find a file named OpenGL32.dll located in your "GameData" folder, delete it and try loading the mod, again.

Q: Will this mod include missions from the Original & Sequel Trilogies?
A: We are currently working on remastering the Prequel content. However, yes. We are planning to include the Original & Sequel Trilogy content, at a later date. Once the Prequel phase is finished, we’ll concentrate on implementing the classic and iconic events from those eras.

Q: How do I perform all of the "fancy" moves, I've seen in the preview videos?
A: It’s suggested that you play Jedi Academy and its campaign, before playing this mod. The base game will help you get to grips with all the necessary basics of combat and other controls.
You can also enter the Datapad by pressing the “TAB” key. From there, you can view a list of all the available moves that can be performed in the mod.

Q: How do I select a different character, during the Mission/EXTRAS area?
A: To do this, press ESC - Click on the “Character” field and you’ll enter the character selection screen menu. From there, you have a wide variety of characters and their alternative skins to choose from.

Q: I can't play the game. It shows me the error message “Couldn't load default.cfg.”
A: You’ve probably extracted/installed the MD Beta 2 file, in to your “base” folder. This is the incorrect directory. The file has to be extracted in to the “Gamedata” folder (or a GameData folder, if you have more than one).

Q: I'm getting an error message, stating "UI_ParseAnimFileSet: 4 == MAX_ANIM_FILES == 4", every time I try to run STAR WARS: Movie Duels.
A: It's likely that you've ran Jedi Academy, through Steam. The mod has to be to run, via the "MovieDuels.x86.exe" file. When you run Jedi Academy through the Steam application, it only loads the "normal" Jedi Academy engine that has the base/vanilla game's code. So, each character model will only have a max. of 4 animations (humanoids). If you want to run your copy of the STAR WARS: Movie Duels mod through Steam, you need to go to "ADD A GAME" > "Add a Non-Steam Game..." in the Steam program window, locate the \Steam\steamapps\common\Jedi Academy\GameData folder and add the "MovieDuels.x86".
Once added, you can rename the shortcut in your Steam library, if you wish.

Enjoy the mod.. And remember.. The Force will be with you, always!
