jnisbet: Spartan338, that's a false positive, yes. That's a very new trojan, first appearing only a few months ago, while all of the files that one can download for JK (including the jkultimate package) are older than that, so they can't actually have the trojan in them. In fact, amusingly enough, one of my recent Defender scans thought that it found this very same 2016 trojan in a few files that date back to the year 2000.
BustaUppa: Quick question, can I actually use this mod with my GOG installation or not? When I follow the link in Step 1, the instructions make it sound like I need the game from a different source to make this work.
I do have the GOG edition working with 3D acceleration in WIn10 (had to add dgVoodoo - can now launch directly through GOG client and get 3d acceleration without black game screen).
jnisbet: Yes, you can use mods with the GOG version. You just need to replace the JK.exe with the one in the
pre-patched JK Unofficial Patch. That's a lot easier than the earlier instructions to obtain an unpatched, retail version and then manually patch it. Here, the work is already done for you.
Then, the simplest way to install and enable the mods is to just put them in your game's Resource folder. That saves you the step of creating a subfolder and the step of modifying your shortcut with the path to that subfolder.
Note: If you lose the "CD" music after copying the unofficially patched JK.exe, then simply rename it to something else (like JediKnight.exe) OR delete the following key from the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Custom\JK.exe
Haha yeah it seems that Defender is a bit trigger happy with the virus accusations well thanks anyway!
