Client Mod Newmod

Newmod Project

Clients mods are modifications to the client-side game. They can improve your gameplay, fix annoyances in the original game, or simply customize your game according to your preferences.

The most popular Siege clientmod in use is Newmod. It is a client-side code and assets mod which updates JA with many important features (such as automatic map downloading), bugfixes (allowing unlimited custom maps), and optimizations. Newmod is compatible with most server mods including base, JA+ and base_entranced.


Engine Mod NewJK

NewJK Project

Back in 2013, Raven Software released Jedi Academy's source code. As a result, it is now possible to modify the game engine (jamp.exe). Included above is a build containing fixes for the most crippling bugs in the original engine.

NewJK is an executable that replaces jamp.exe and launches when you start your game. It contains many crash fixes and features for Jedi Academy (JA) that are not possible with the vanilla JA executable.

Additionally, NewJK automatically points to the JKHub master server, allowing you to see and join Jedi Academy servers.


Installing the mods

Most mods come as one or more .pk3 files. To apply the changes on every server, place the .pk3 files in your GameData\base folder, usually located at /steamapps/common/Jedi Academy/GameData/base/.
