According to Microsoft, Windows 95 has entered its non-supported phase as of December 2001. Because of this, Jedi Academy doesn’t support this operating system. Windows 98 also entered its non-supported phase as of June 2003. Because of this, several hardware manufacturers are no longer developing drivers for this operating system. If you are running Windows 2000 or XP, you must have local Administrator or Power User rights to properly install the game. Only local Administrator rights will allow you to update DirectX in these operating systems. Minimum System Requirements ------------------- Computer: 100% DirectX 9.0a compatible computer required.

You will be prompted to install DirectX during installation of this game if a more recent version isn’t already properly installed on your system. NOTE: DirectX may require the "latest" updates for your operating system. This may also include the latest drivers for your particular motherboard, sound and video hardware. Installation: Installation requires 1.3 GB of free hard drive space. We recommend that you have at least an additional 200 MB of free space available after installing the game for the Windows swap/page file and save games.

The launcher screen will open automatically unless Autoplay is disabled. If it does not, double-click on the My Computer icon, then the CD-ROM icon. This should bring up the launcher menu. If it does not, double-click on JediAcademy.exe in the window that opens. Click on the top button from the following options and the installer will guide you through the installation process. * Install * Help * Analyze Your Computer * View Readme * View Troubleshooting Guide * Go Back * Options * Visit www.lucasarts.com * Register Online * View License Agreement * Uninstall * Go Back * Exit You will be prompted to choose Automatic or Custom Installation. Automatic installs Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy into the default location on your hard drive, along with installing DirectX if your computer requires it. Choosing Custom install allows you to change the installation location, and will also prompt you if you would like the required version of DirectX to be installed. The default installation location is C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Jedi Knight Jedi Academy. Running Jedi Academy -------------------- To run the game, click on your Start Menu, select Programs, then LucasArts, then Star Wars Jedi Knight Jedi Academy and click on Launch Star Wars JK Jedi Academy. Click on "Single Player Game" or "Multiplayer Game" on the Launcher and it will begin the game. Desktop Color Palette --------------------- We recommend that you set your desktop to High Color (16 bit) color. When playing Jedi Academy with your desktop set to a color palette other than 16 bit, you may experience various problems while running the game. Task Switching -------------- Task switching is disabled when playing Jedi Academy in full screen mode. In order to task switch, you must change Full Screen to Off in the Video Setup screen. CTRL-ESC -------- We recommend that you do not use CTRL-ESC while playing. “Console” commands ------------------ Jedi Academy’s console commands are primarily used for development, testing, and product support purposes. Users unfamiliar with these console commands should not attempt to use them, as their use may result in game crashes, corrupted graphics, and/or a variety of other issues. Console commands and errors resulting from the use of console commands and/or cheats are unsupported. NUMPAD Keys ----------- Due to the dual function of the NUMPAD (number pad) Keys, you may experience problems when trying to enter numbers with the NUMPAD (trying to type 4, for example, will also bring the cursor over to the left). Because of this issue, we recommend limited use of the NUMPAD in Jedi Academy. ################################################################ LucasArts and the LucasArts logo are registered trademarks of Lucasfilm Ltd.
