- The Alternate Cutscenes (when you choose the dark side in the game)
- The Databank: "Jedi Knight" Character Profiles

Inside the DVD-ROM, you'll find:

- All the Pictures used in the DVD galleries

------------------------------------------------------

Some infos:
- This is NOT a fully understandable movie! It's just all the cutscenes arranged in chronological order.
- The game is 8 year old, so, don't expect high quality videos.
- This is my very first DVD. I guess it must be far from perfect. Feel free to report any trouble, or just your opinion!

------------------------------------------------------

The DVD will be soon sent to segaflip, and so, be available on a.b.starwars, and then, if all is alright, on myspleen.


Note: Please post any remark or commentary concerning my other projects on my Project Thread. But feel free to talk about the Jedi Knight DVD here. No problem!

Looking great... MotS didn't have live action cutscenes, did it? If I recall correctly, it was just in-game rendered stuff, but if I'm wrong, I could slap in my disk and send the video files your way if you wanted.

You're absolutely right, MotS don't have have live action cutscenes, not even precalculated 3D scenes. The only one is the title of the game with the "big-yellow-text-in-space" (I don't remember how you call it in english...).

Thanks, anyway!

Hey Kaal-Jhyy,
Was just wondering if I'd be able to get a free copy (gave you Trajan and the Cutscene names), or if I'd need to PM you. The disc looks fantastic, I hope you intend on taking a break before moving on to other games though.

To contact me outside the forum, for trades and such my email address is my OT.com username @gmail.com

Yes, I haven't forget you klokwerk. Your help has been very useful. BTW, you're credited in the DVD credits
PM me

Thank for the nice words! And yes, I'll take a break! This project has been very exhausting for me, just cause I've wanted it to be nice to see and navigate into it, and doesn't seem to be a "made-in-5-minutes" DVD. There has been a lot of (web) research to find interesting and related files, to find tools for extracting and converting files from the original game (like the texture I've used for the "Chapter Selection" menu, or the game menus, used on several DVD menus, sound FXs,...). And all those tools work only on PC (I've had to use VirtualPC)!
Oh, I'm not complaining, I'm glad for the results (and I hope that you'll like that DVD), but, definitely yes, I'll take a break...

Hi there!

Today, instead of taking my break, I've made the cover for the "Jedi Knight Cutscenes" DVD!
Tell me what you think of it!

...and yes, it's really not an "ink-saver" cover...

Thanks a lot!
You know, it's my very first DVD cover, and I've worked all the day on this... I'm very tired... and it's not finished. Tomorrow, I'll start the disc label.

Concerning the availability, I'll send the DVD this week. I don't have any more DVD-Rs for now. I'll buy some tomorrow, and get some infos about the mailing between France and USA, cause I really don't know how much time it takes.
And I really hope to have finished the disc label soon, cause I could put it, and the cover, directly in the DVD.

And, Dark-Jedi, it seems that you haven't read my first post entirely (bad boy! LOL). At the end of this post, all is explained...

Thanks again segaflip for your help in this!

There's one music for the main menu, and ambience sounds (extracted from the game) for the other menus.


So, this time I think that this project is really finished:
