Problem with mods for JK1!!!

Koon · 02-08-2003, 11:07 AM

When I play with mods in JK1 it always throws me to the desktop I'm using Patch Commander. What should I do? Any helps will be appreciated!

Anybooody??!?!

So you mean you're just playing the game and suddenly thrown back to the desktop?

Koon · 02-08-2003, 04:57 PM

Exactly... (BTW how can I add image sigs?)

Does this only happen when you use Patch Commander? If you aren't sure, you may want to try playing JK without Patch Commander a few times to find out. From what you've explained...the problem could be anything from a bug in Patch Commander (unlikely), to the particular video card you're using, to memory.

I dunno I don't know how to use mods without patch commander.

What I'm saying is...you may want to start by doing a little trial and error...

1. Try using a MOD other than the one that it has been crashing with (if it's only 1 MOD that you're playing).

2. If it's every MOD, try hosting a regular MOD-free game of JK and see if you crash to the desktop.

If other MODs don't crash when you use Patch Commander, this will tell you that it's probably the MOD. If other MODs do crash with Patch Commander, it could be a number of things. You would then want to host a regular game of JK to determine whether or not your game crashes without Patch Commander as well. If it doesn't crash, this would tell you that it's probably Patch Commander.

Also...what MOD are you playing with, what video card are you using, and are you using the latest version of Patch Commander (4.0.0.13 <-- should see this version number when you go to Help / About...)?

Koon · 02-09-2003, 04:06 PM

Well it crashes differently in every mod that I try to play sometimes it crashes when I press to the fire button, sometimes quickly when level's loaded. I'll try what you said. My card is GeForce 2 MX 400. The Commander version is 4.0.0 13.

Are you running on XP? Do you have the compatability modes set up?

Koon · 02-10-2003, 04:34 AM

Nope. I'm runnin on Win 98.

Koon · 02-10-2003, 04:53 AM

Hey, now it says "Could not load level" when I use some of the modifications.

Pedro The Hutt · 02-10-2003, 10:32 AM

I'm almost starting to concider suggesting that you need to reinstall both JK and the patch commander O_o

Koon · 02-10-2003, 04:54 PM

No it's not giving error when I play normally just when I use some mods. Yahh some really O_o situtation!

Koon · 02-11-2003, 05:00 PM

The mods don't work when I don't use PC. This shows that there's somethin with mods.

Pedro The Hutt · 02-12-2003, 10:55 AM

Well... you can't use mods without the patch commander so that doesn't really prove anything... which reminds me... where do you usually put/install mods?

***Boba Rhett*** · 02-12-2003, 05:08 PM

You can use mods without patch commander. You can either launch JK through dos with the mod path or use a bat file.

Pedro The Hutt · 02-13-2003, 08:09 AM

But that's the hard way around XD
