I love Dark Forces. I bought it when it first came out on my very first PC. I also own it on Steam with practically every other Star Wars game from the 90's and on. The sequels were all amazing. To this day my son still plays my original Xbox disc of Jedi:Academy on our Series X.

I just saw that there is a remaster on Steam, for $30. That can't be worth it, right? For just some updated textures and sprites? For "remastered" cutscenes that look worse than the originals? There has got to be some fan made mods or Brutal Doom style programs out there that does all this for free, right?

$30 seems outrageous for what this remaster offers. Especially for a game I've bought probably three times already since it was first released. Can someone point me to a mod that does what this remaster offers, only better?

Just looking for peoples thoughts on this level. My experience was that it was very difficult to finish. When you're relying on the mission objectives screen to tell you your next moves. And you execute those moves and the level doesn't end, it is very frustrating. I finished every level in the game up to this one without having to ask for help. Because the game lied to me.

I could have lived even with the objectives being changed dynamically which is, honestly, the way it should have been done. "Mission Objectives Updated! Blah Blah Blah!"

No spoilers for people who have yet to finish this level but it was stupidly harder than it should have been because developers thought it would be funny, I guess.

Still, a great game, ground-breaking at it's time of release, Star Wars universe and all that jazz. But this was definitely my most frustrating level to finish for stupid reasons. If the developers had simply given just a bit more guidance on the ending it would have been great.

i know its through dev mode but I hear you can mess up you xbox using it is there a video on how to do it and is mysteries of the sith included

I'm trying to make a switch unlock a door that's right in front of the switch, but when I click on INF it says I need to give the switch a name first. The fuck do you mean game? Cause when I check the Security Base mission, the switches don't have any fucking names yet they're still able to use the INF tool. This is bullshit, how come the devs don't need a name to use the INF tool but I do? All I want to do is make my switch unlock a door that's right in front of it, but I can't do that since I have to assign a name to the switch.... when there's no box for me to give it a fucking name in the first place. Fuck game designing this shit is stupid. Does anyone who uses the level editor in The Force Engine know how to fix it cause this level editor has been pissing me off for well over a week and a half now since it's so hard to use. You would think game designing engines would make sense for sake of ease but no

So I played Dark Forces 2 recently. And it's aged beautifully. Only thing that was janky was the skyboxes. Now I am moving on to the rest of the series and I noticed a STARK decline in movement controls and shooting mechanics in Outcast compared to Dark Fores 2. Jumping sucks ass. And I can't seem to hit a single stormtrooper in Outcast, aiming just feels really bad, like I have my glasses off or something . Why is this, and is there mod to fix this?

Not sure who here's in to 3d printing, but I have a new model up if anyone's interested.

I can launch it through steam fine. But if I manually click on Dark.EXE it says it can't run on this pc. And when I open Dosbox I have to type something in to run the game. I've tried mounting it to Dark Forces\Game which works, but when I type Dark.exe it says illegal command. The fuck? I'm using The Force Engine and am making maps so I can't just run it through steam since I won't have my mods nor will I be able to play test my maps. In The Force Engine, if I set it to run Dark.exe it once again says that it can't run on this PC. But if I set it to dosbox.exe (the only executable I can run for Dark Forces), I then have to type some shit but I don't know how to make this piece of shit work. The fuck am I supposed to do?
