Kev's introduction

Post by KevTheMaelstrom »

Hey everyone,Kev here.

I've recently found my old copy of JK2 which I bought back in 2004 if I'm not mistaken.
Remembering the game still had a vivid and active following(you decide how vivid it actually was) online,
I thought it wouldn't be too bad of an idea to get into it again.

Although I still have some vague idea of how everything goes,I'd still enjoy relearning the ropes after all these years.

Other than that,I'm a pretty straightforward dude.
Born in Germany,currently living in Croatia.
I enjoy making music,performing
and I'm a IT technician by trade.

Any info on how much things have changed within the scene etc. is highly welcome.

Thanks for your time,see you in-game!

Hello and welcome back to jk2!

The best way to judge how much things have changed is by hoping right into the game and figuring it out I guess.
I guess the biggest change is that the jk2 source code got released in 2013, allowing engine modifications like jk2mv (all 3 patches in one, lots of optimisations and fixes). Other than that people are still running around and trying to slice their opponents into pieces. :D

If you got any questions or need help with anything, just tell us. ;)

I'll give JK2MV a look,see if I can get all of this to work on this setup,
as the CD (oh how I miss retail) was scratched up to all hell.

Only question I could think of...
Any specific servers/places you'd recommend?
Don't want to spend the first 3 hours of coming back to this hopping in between servers,if that's understandable!

Also,I appreciate the incredibly quick response time.
Enjoy yourself!

Depends on the version you want to play.

On 1.02 I can obviously recommend my own server ([DARK]HOMEBASE). :P
Another nice 1.02 server is the "SWF Temple".

For 1.04 I guess )KAI( is a nice place to visit for no force.
And SoL if you like force. ;)

Hope to see you around! ;)

Welcome to this page Kev! I can also suggest the servers that Daggolin listed. This game has some hard times these days and every 'new' player is a gift! :) Hope to meet you in the game.

Sincerely

Thank you kindly!

Also,just the person I was looking for.
I was chatting Daggo and Boothand up a little,looking for your KA clientside for 1.02,as I can't seem to find it anywhere.
Only thing I've seen up there was 1.04,but I'm experimenting a little with things,which is where the 1.02 ver of the mod would really come in handy!

Again,thank you for your time and enjoy yourself!

Sorry, but I am no longer distributing the 1.02 clientside anymore, so you'll have to get it through someone else :)
