Can I Disable Lightsabers in Multiplayer?

[Screamin' Seagull]

I had the Gane Cube version of Jedi Outcast and there was a setting in Arena Mode(= to multiplayer)to disable lightsabers and have only guns. Is there any way to do this in Jedi Academy? And if not, is there a mod/addon I could download that would make it possible?

according to http://japp.jkhub.org/?page=calculator
japp_spawnweaps 524287

but this bit calculator has failed me before, so dont get your hopes up.

oh, also /ammerc could be a quick fix

[Screamin' Seagull]

Can you elaborate further on that last part? And that first part? Not sure I understand what you're telling me.

[Shwarts]

are you using any mods? are you clicking the create game button in MP or using a dedicated server exe?
you want to find server.cfg. it might be in gamedata/base, or if you have japlus, in gamedata/japlus. etc.
open server.cfg in notepad
seta g_weapondisable 8 (8 = lightsaber, but it seems to have no effect)
only saber allowed is 524279

however... im having a lot of trouble disabling saber in .cfg for a dedicated server exe.
the fastest working solution i can think of is using japlus, and using admin commands.
you can turn people into mercs, removing their lightsabers with /ammerc. (but they are automatically given all weapons, im not sure if you want that)
or if you want, gametype jedi vs merc and forceteam merc might work.

So is that a no then?

[Screamin' Seagull]

I'm only facing bots if that changes anything.

[Screamin' Seagull]

If saber attack is set to 0 in force powers it takes away your lightsaber, can I do anything to set that to default or something?

[Shwarts]

if you had japlus and admin set up you could just /ammerc the bots, and get exactly what you are looking for: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEbHsfDAivo

but it sounds like you are using base and loading a mp game from inside the program.

or maybe try this: http://www.moddb.com/mods/gunslingers-academy

But I don't want the AI's to have all weapons

[Screamin' Seagull]

And that gunslinger mod adds modern real world weapons.

[Screamin' Seagull]

I feel like it would be easy to make an addon that just sets the bots' saber attack to 0. Do you know anyone who could make this?

[Shwarts]

there's probably a mod for this somewhere. look around

[Screamin' Seagull]

I did. I checked all the sites I normally get addons, but couldn't find it. Maybe I'm searching the wrong thing, or wording it incorrectly...

[Shwarts]

what do you want, exactly? a full force server with a bunch of blaster toting stormtrooper bots? or a blaster only server? or start as melee and pick up weapons?

[Screamin' Seagull]

I want it to be like a normal server, just without lightsabers. Regular force and picking up guns as you go.

[Shwarts]

sounds like like a case of disable forceoffense. it should be possible. i'll keep trying...
