![]() Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy is now available for the Nintendo Switch via the eShop and PlayStation 4 via the PlayStation Store for $19.99 / £18.99 / €23.99. The way the cross play on nintendo switch worked was that there were a set list of IPs that were being used and if the PC users entered those, they could "ambush" someone's game who was playing off of the console.By William D'Angelo, posted on 26 March 2020 / 1,942 Views I'd like to believe you but I'd like to see some proof if you don't mind. it was re-released awhile back as a "Games with Gold" freebie for the 360 and One but the multiplayer didn't work (it's using the emulation for original Xbox titles). JKA on consoles was an original Xbox title. It's not a PC game where you can play around with drivers or edit server list files. But I'm telling you on 360 this game would crash before you could even play a bot match! None of the MP modes worked. Last I checked XlinkKai only simulates LAN (system-link) connections over the internet. Or were they using the disc version? So many questions. So how did you connect to an Xbox One server from your pc? The Xbox One player would have been running the original xbox version, as would the xbox 360 user, and like I said, it doesn't actually work (unless it has been patched in the months since it was made available). So I just continue to play JKA on my pc, and I use my own dedicated server which is open to anyone (in theory) who has the IP and port entered. I don't know how long it was working, maybe a week or two? by the time I knew about it people were saying it no longer worked. ![]() Point is the "cross play" for the recent console release supposedly worked, but they quickly patched it. I know about it, I just haven't had 50 "quality forum posts" yet. that's another thing this is the GWG download, not the original disc. I haven't tried it since it was a "games with gold" release. but on 360, if you try to load any form of multiplayer in JKA, even a botch match in solo, it starts to load and then freezes. I don't have an Xbox One (and no longer have an original Xbox), so I can't test it there. When I say it doesn't work I when you run it on Xbox 360. the original xbox's multiplayer servers are terminated, so the only games you can still play that way are the ones that had LAN support (which Xlink kai simulates over the internet if you're part of their community) and local play. Jedi Academy (JKA) was a PC game originally, and it was first ported (after MacOS and Linux) to the original Xbox, and I'm sure it played fine on that console as intended. Not true, I've played plenty of bot matches on jedi academy and Jedi outcast on the Xbox and never had an issue with it also in fact its still playable on multiplayer via xlink kai and yes Jedi outcast has multiplayer on the Xbox version it however doesn't on the switch version since i do own it. Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight and its expansion Jedi Knight: Mysteries of the Sith were released for Windows (95 was current at the time), they were never ported to any other operating systems, officially. Jedi Outcast on the original Xbox (and other consoles) didn't have any online play mode, so that was never an issue. So for now you're just going to be playing other PC players (whether on Windows or MacOS) or only other console players if you are on console. This issue never came up until the PS4/Switch releases of JKA/JO, and sadly they had patched it by the time I knew cross play was (briefly) possible. ![]() it actually locks up and forces you to restart even if you try to play a bot match or local game! ![]() when it was released as a "gold" downloadable game on Xbox 360, the multiplayer was completely unusable.
