Hi, I'm sorry if this is wrong, but I was curious if you could list some of the differences between The Academy Version One and The Academy Version Two because I downloaded Version One because it was only 9 MB which was really nice, but I'm curious what was added in Version Two. Boy, that was a long sentence. Anyway maybe you might convince me to download Version Two. |

Version 2: - Instead of the courtyard having 3 doors leading directly to the dueling rooms, there is now a room you can reach from the courtyard which contains doors to the dueling rooms and their observation decks to prevent many FPS issues people were having. - Many areas with a lack of lighting, texture issues and other map glitches have been resolved. - Guns are spread out across the fortress, so there is a bit more of a challenge in finding weapons. - New NPCs seem quite limited to the force powers they can use, so you don't have to worry about them using rage. Overall I would say its architecture is a lot better (screenshots). Version 1: - Its lack of clipping in some areas allows for it to be a great map for playing hide and seek. - Unlike the battleground area in version 2, there are some hills in front of each fortress and an observation deck around it. There are probably countless other differences, but that's all the main ones I could think of for now. In v2, everything has basically been reshaped and improved. Anyway, if you want to play on the academy's servers, you will need the_academy_v2. This comment was edited by Setementor on Jul 16 2006 10:35am. |

If you mean version two as patch 1.01 it is: Global Fixed dynamic glow performance for new ATI drivers (if you are experiencing low framerate, go into Setup - More Video and change dynamic glow to off). Updated EAX 4.0 sound support. Single Player fixes Force feedback defaults to off (if you are experiencing hiccupping while playing, especially during lightsaber battles, go into Controls - Mouse/Joystick and set force feedback to "No"  .Note: Gravis gamepad users should turn force feedback to off. Gravis drivers aren't compatible with Jedi Academy and will cause the game to crash. Patch will work around manufacturing defect which causes single player not to run. Resetting defaults in game will no longer reset your skill level. Fixed bug allowing player to select a force power that had already been maxed out. Fixed animation issue if enemies force push you while executing a special move. Ragdoll fixes. Multiplayer fixes Fixed bug causing Internet servers to time out too early on master server list. Fixed bug causing various movement sounds not to play consistently (footsteps, rolling, etc.). Fixed bug regarding turning off of second saber. Fixed bug preventing camera shake if hit by explosive. Fixed roll animation. Fixed exploit allowing for illegal character models. Fixed bug allowing rocket launcher lock-on after death. Various exploit fixes. |
