How i got this game working nicely (Launching, HUD, Aspect ratio, LOD, Mouse fixes)
How i got this game to start and play in windows 10. (Before crashed when trying to start first level.)

Downloaded dgVoodoo v2.54 and copied DLLs from MS folder to where JK.exe was (game folder).

Removed watermarks with dgVoodooCpl.exe


Fixes:

HUD fix, at link below "JK HUD Revamp" part (Download jkhud, make "mod" folder where JK.exe is and put jkhud.gob there. Add "-path Mod" to steam launch commands.)

(jkhub link seems to be down atm, so i uploaded it here http://wikisend.com/download/579080/jkhud.zip )


LOD (Level of Detail) fix, downloaded and installed these. (overwrite file at episode folder, make backup of original. Needs fresh start of the game, older saves wont load with this mod.)

(Stopped working for me) Aspect ratio fix, From nvidia control panel select scaling mode to "aspect ratio". Works when your gun is shown more in game. (This fix stopped working when game was launched from symbolic link.)

Mouse was too fast and inverted: From in game mouse settings uncheck both checkboxes for mouse X and Y, there are separate settings for mouse X and Y. Then adjust sensitivity to your liking.

Problems that still exists:
-All windows go very small after playing this game
-Cant alt tab or use steam overlay, when playing with JK.exe (Playing from symbolic link fixes this, but AR fix wont work then.)
