Arrow Help with using Mods read

Hi, I have downloaded some mods onto my computer. I downloaded an acr trooper, some clones, and a clone trooper rifle. ... so I like clone troopers, Any way I put them in the base file. Now what? What do I do now? Why are they not working?
I downloaded all of these from jediknight2.filefront.com.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thank you

Most mods will work only on multiplayer.


I can read your mind...

Make sure you put the .pk3 file from the download .zip file in the base folder.

If you put the entire .zip in there, it'll do nothing. Also, you ONLY need the .pk3, the .zip, .txt and any other files you downloaded will do nothing for the game.

Did you try reading the installation instructions in the read-me files?

If you don't know what a zip and txt file are, I'll gander you're new to more than just "this whole mod and skin thing."

OK...

.ZIP file: The file you download from FileFront. You can double-click this to open it like a folder. Inside, you will find other files:

.PK3 file: This is the mod itself. Some mods have more than one.

.TXT file: Usually the mod readme. Double-click this to open it in Notepad. Read it.

Sometimes the .zip file will have other files inside. You don't need to install those.

All you need to do is copy the .PK3 file into your base folder. So, if you installed the game to the default path, which I assume you did, that folder is:

C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Jedi Knight Jedi Academy\gamedata\base

But like Inyri said, read the mod's README.txt file to get installation instructions.

Default Re: Help with using Mods read

Okay, I must really be doing something really wrong . Because through all of your guy's and girl's suggestions and detailed walkthroughs I still am not getting the mod's and skins to work. I have some Clone Commandos, Clone Rifle, A large group of Clone skins, some Clones from Episode 3, and some non player characters. this is all that I have downloaded. I have looked through all of these files and have not found a PK3 file. I would understand and be able to do this if I had the PK3 file. but I don't so any on who is willing to help me please do. I am really sorry if I am bugging anyone or if you think i am stupid, but this is the first time I have ever tried this and have no clue what to do. so please help me!!!

Thank you for all your help.

Like I said above, you download a zip file from JK3-Files, and inside that zip file you find the pk3 file.

If you're downloading the zip files without pk3 files inside, then maybe something went wrong with your download. Try redownloading the skins and models.

What is inside the files, then?

Default Re: Help with using Mods read

Inside the files there is some graphic files sounds and a file called mods but in that is players file then in that is the graphics. I do not know if this is helpful or not but all the files I have used are a group download, none of these are a single person. Could that be why it is not working? Is there any special files that I should download for these to work? Once again I apreciate everyone's help.

Thankyou
