Bat. files not working
 

I've been having this issue for a while now. So, I can't run Jedi Academy on Vista without choosing "Run as administrator". However, when I choose to run as administrator on a bat. file, such as the dedicated server bat. for JA+, the "command prompt" will flash on screen for a few milliseconds, and then goes away and nothing happens. But when I choose to run it normally, it says "vm_create on game failed".

I have the same "flashing on screen" issue with several other bat. files such as "PMG viewers" for other games. It's been bugging the heck out of me that I can't run most of the mod/mod tools I download, as usually they are bat.'s.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks:bows:

Quick edit: I forgot to mention, the new GLA anims for JA+ don't work, even though I've enabled them in server.cfg.

Re: Bat. files not working
 

you'll need to right click, go to the properties of, and 'always run as administrator' the file jamp.exe in gamedata, and possibly use compatibility mode.

Re: Bat. files not working
 

I've already read the "read me".

The "always run as administrator" option is unavailable. (transparent)

Any further ideas?

Edit: I misunderstood your post. I've chosen the "always admin" option for "jamp" and it fixed the not being able to run the "Play_japlus" bat. However, it did not fix the "vm_create on game failed" issue I have with the dedicated server bat.

Keep in mind, when I choose "run as admin", the command prompt will flash on screen, disappear, and nothing happens. Again, thanks for your time.

Edit 12 seconds after last edit: I've now picked the admin option for "jampded" app as well, and it fixed the vm_create issue. Thanks. However, do you have any idea why JA+ won't run the "new GLA anims" no matter what?

Re: Bat. files not working
 

I had this issues once also for no reason at all. (The GLA anims) but after reinstalling JK3 and JA+, it worked. :|

Re: Bat. files not working
 

I hate having to reinstall things, though. I hope there's a quicker/easier solution.

Re: Bat. files not working
 

You shouldn't have to reinstall.

Make sure you don't have any conflicting animation mods.
JA+ specific animation mods should be fine to be kept in the japlus directory (not base), and I don't know why Slider insists on putting it in base..

Re: Bat. files not working
 

For me, they have never worked without putting them in my base folder. Couldn't tell you why, though.

Re: Bat. files not working
 

Amazing, considering I can get my mod-specific animations working perfectly without having them in my base folder.
+1 Slider. + fucking 1

Re: Bat. files not working
 

Lucky you, I wish I had the same luck.

Also, it's ONLY JA+ animations that don't seem to work when not in the base folder. Everything else works perfect if loaded through a mod folder, which I find rather odd...

Re: Bat. files not working
 

How do they not work:
-Are you capable of using them, but it gives you the jesus-anim (arms/legs stretched randomly)?
-Are you simply not capable of using them at all?

If it's the first, they're working fine but something is installed/randomly going poof wrong on your side
If it's the second, make sure your server.cfg includes the following lines (specially the top one):

seta jp_newGLAAnims 1
seta jp_ledgeGrab 1

Re: Bat. files not working
 

I really don't see how being able to grab a ledge would have anything to do with animations working or not working...

Re: Bat. files not working
 

Because if it's disabled, some might think they don't work. Read his post again :p

Re: Bat. files not working
 

Oh, right! Forgot to say, problem fixed! It was just a base mod interfering with the animations. /amkiss and /amhug don't work, but everything else is fine!

Thanks for your help all. And to the guy who is having a problem, and correct me if I didn't read thoroughly enough, it sounds like you may have messed up some JA+ files. Try uninstalling and reinstalling japlus, after you delete all the files related to japlus. Here are the list of files:

Base(folder)

Credits(folder)

japlus(folder)

japlus_tools(folder)

faq

jampded

libcxa.so.1

linuxjampded

patch_ded_server1.011_readme

play_japlus

plugin_readme

readme_main

start_japlus_autorestart_dedicatedserver

start_japlus_linux_autorestart.sh

start_japlus_using_raven_dedicated_server_pack

start_japlus_without_dedicated_raven_pack

Delete everything inside of the japlus related folders, and the folders themselves. Hope I helped xD
