Oh, and a 3D model viewer, in case you want to sit and marvel at the poly count for a while. On top of that, there's four wave-based survival levels(opens in new tab), and a sandbox mode. The fan remake comes from a developer named Ruppertle, who mostly tinkers with Arma mods when they aren't remaking '90s PC classics from scratch, and you can currently play through two levels from the original game in it. Thankfully, someone's decided to remake the whole thing in Unreal Engine 4.

But there's no getting around it, Dark Forces 2 is an ugly game by today's standards, which you'll only notice if you actually manage to get the thing running on modern machines. It's so good, in fact, that we were still singing its praises(opens in new tab) as recently as 2020, praising its lightsaber-swinging and movement. My specs: i7 3770 3.4GHz, Gigabyte MOBO, 16GB DDR3 RAM, RTX2070 SUPER, Sound Blaster Z audio, Samsung 4k 40' TV (3840x2160).It might be 26 years old, but Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2 is still a banger. It looks like certain small parts of them became transparent, but nothing to ruin the gameplay. The only drawback was due to a small corruption in some of the textures, difficult to explain in words. The cutscenes ran full screen and even the game's music played normal (which I never had achieve without a music wrapper). I don't know what the Steam people have been doing with the game (they certainly did, as until recently it was incompatible and only ran without 3D mode for me), but everything is 99% normal now.

I confess that I had already given up on the Steam version, preferring to use the GOG version to test patches, because (until now) I had never been able to run the Steam version without gamebreaking problems. Then I had forgotten about the game.Ĭoncerning W11, the important thing is that the new OS ran it well.Īpart from a small bug, the game ran surprisingly well in 4k mode and, for the first time in a long time, without using any patches. In both situations the boot files were corrupted beyond repair, the OS went into a continuous bootloop, forcing me to reinstall everything again.

The post is a bit long, so be patient.įirst, I didn't post it before because my Windows 11 (dev mode version) got corrupted twice: the first time due to a ghastly crash playing The Witcher 3, and the 2nd time after a power outage. Motivated by your question, I decided to test it again. Originally posted by Kyle2k10:I have installed recently Windows 11 here.
