The server is back... new IP: 63.143.56.42 (port: 11015 )

(the tracker is a pain to update, so I suggest adding the IP to a program like Qtracker or just save into your favorites within Jedi Academy)

They moved my server again! The new IP is: 63.143.56.42 (port is still 11015 )

up now!

The IP address changed due to a server migration from the host:

104.192.227.218:11015

(port is the same) The Tracker will be updated when possible but it should be joinable again!

Announcement of this show inspired me to go and play through the Halo games (previously I'd only played 1 and 3 and only a handful of multiplayer matches). Yes, Halo passed me by because I wasn't one of these kids who grew up playing the Xbox (the Jedi Knight series were my bread and butter online g...

Fixed the tracker... sorry folks, looks like when I updated my subscription there was some down time, should be working again at the same IP/port. All are welcome for some Jedi Academy action in 2022!

I liked it (as everyone else has said, the aesthetics especially), even if it still lacks much that I love in the 1984 versions (whether Lynch's original or the longer tv cut). As for lack of quips... this is either a good thing or a bad thing. People said there was no humor in the movie, others sai...

Testing the new tracker in 2021

Not intending to spam here but I wasn't sure where else to turn. :x Calling all coders, web gurus, and forum experts... https://forums.massassi.net/vb3/showthread.php?68234-End-of-the-forums&p=1233424 End of the forums? - Brian @ 10:58 pm [Dec 4] Even before we started the Discord, the forums we...

Yeah, it took a site like this to really highlight to me the value of having off axis firing of lower powered shots for fleet destruction as a feature of the DS2. I guess as a kid I thought that the Death Star wasn't finished yet, so that's all it could do (ignoring the Emperor's words as mere brava...

So the first Death Star's surface probably wasn't completely covered in Star Destroyer sized cannons, but they were mostly around the trench? The station was heavily shielded against a large scale attack (vs. a fleet of capital ships, say defending a planet)... Then again, apart from the Superlaser,...

Cool as that is, we can still note differences between the McQuarrie artwork and the finished product (like the inaccurate X-wing engines). I know a lot of stuff has been added with the video games (which in turn inspired novels or co-inspired them with RPGs), and then later still with the Disney mo...

Correct (although Han is present in the clip I shared). And it says nothing about whether that means with a planetary shield or just breaking any planet that size into a debris field, so the Dodonna line is a little more helpful.

Woops, that was my "half the starfleet" figure. So that should have been c.452,389 for the known size of the Imperial Starfleet (capital ships) at the time of ANH. Much smaller than your figure of course.

It's during the rebel briefing in ANH. Han is talking about how much firepower he thinks it would take to destroy Alderaan ("the entirefleet couldn't destroy the whole planet... it'd take a thousand ships with more firepower than I've ever..."). Somebody feel free to fact-check my memory t...

You're not the hero we deserve, just the one we need...

Thanks. I hear you about the size reduction issue in official (non-Saxton) works. I guess I was hoping for some analysis based on the movie footage we see (extrapolated), if it exists. But good to hear there was an official total. I don't personally care whether something is "legends" or n...

It's been so many years since I really frequented this site, but I thought for sure somebody had calculated how many turbolasers were probably on the first death star surface, based on what we saw (or some kind of official number) but now I can't find it. Can anyone help?

I was on vacation for 18 days, so back & restarted the server which was down (sorry about that).

I'm mourning the loss of JKhub.net (the dark forces ii editing site, not the server page that is still up). If anybody has their old files, you may want to contact the web admin.

Restarted the server again. You can view the status and who is on, etc. via Qtracker (or whatever else people use these days to view servers outside the game)

I realize the title is a bit outdated since we're well into 2021, but the server is BACK UP as of this writing, after having been unavailable for a little bit (sorry about that, I hadn't checked on it in a few days). Remember, it's not using the default Jedi Academy port, so if you can't find it, th...

I recently renewed the server for another year, so if anybody tried to get in but couldn't, it's back up at the same IP and port as before. Enjoy!

The server doesn't rely upon web searches, only on people polling the JKA server listing, but mostly invites I've posted here, on steam and shared with friends. Google can fall off the edge of the internet for all I care.

Yes it absolutely is still up (and paid for) so feel free to join us anytime! And before I hear someone yell "it's just bots!" I have checked the logs and many people join throughout each day, they just aren't all necessarily on at the same time, unless they coordinate so keep that in mind...

Sorry to hear. I hardly visit here anymore and that's two premature deaths of one-time board personalities in one day I hear about. Sad

Sorry to hear.
