Jedi Knight Remastered Configuration Guide

After installing Jedi Knight Remastered, configure the display settings to enable features like bloom and adjust settings such as field of view (FOV) and aspect ratio. Enabling bloom is recommended to see textures and lighting effects, while FOV can be adjusted for different screen resolutions like ultrawide monitors. Other settings control frame rate limiting, vertical synchronization, and anti-aliasing. Mods can be added to the game folder to enhance gameplay but may cause crashes, so test saves after adding or removing mods.

 It will install the Game Assets and Launch the Game! Before you start playing be sure to
go to setup and look at the below guide on how to configure the Display settings to
work correctly with Jedi Knight Remastered 3.0!
Configurations
With the implementation of OpenJKDF2 we now have the advantage of having in Game
configurations!

1. To run JK Remastered with all the textures etc. You must at least have Bloom enabled
but I would also recommend all the settings above be added as well. The Texts can also
be turned off altogether from Advanced section if you desire!
 Aspect Raito 1:1: Changes the size the game

 (FOV) Field of view: Depending on your screen resolution you may want to change this setting.
With the easy-to-use slider you can change this on the fly with no issues! Ultra-Wide JKDF2 here
we come! Looks kind of silly on a standard monitor but if you have a ultra-wide monitor this
setting will work perfectly!

 FPS (Frames Per Sec) Limit will limit what frames the game will run on from None to max of 360!
 Vertical Synchronization (VSync), helps create stability by synchronizing the image frame rate of
your game or application with your display monitor refresh rate. If it's not synchronized, it can
cause screen tearing, an effect that causes the image to look glitched or duplicated horizontally
across the screen.

 Fullscreen

 HiDPI is an adjective that describes a display with high pixel density or DPI. A HiDPI screen can
display sharper text and more detailed images than a standard DPI display. While there is no
official DPI threshold for a HiDPI display, a typical HiDPI monitor has a DPI of at least 200.

 Texture Filtering: In computer graphics, texture filtering or texture smoothing is the method
used to determine the texture color for a texture mapped pixel, using the colors of nearby
texels. There are two main categories of texture filtering, magnification filtering and minification
filtering.
 Bloom: Allows for Bright lights and blaster affects.

 Screen space ambient occlusion (SSAO) is a computer graphics technique for efficiently
approximating the ambient occlusion effect in real time.

 Supersampling or supersampling anti-aliasing (SSAA) is a spatial anti-aliasing method, i.e. a


method used to remove aliasing (jagged and pixelated edges, colloquially known as "jaggies")
from images rendered in computer games or ot her computer programs that generate imagery.
**Note Do not go over 1.00 if anything go down on this setting 0.99 ->. I don’t really see any
difference since the textures are already updated in remastered so I would recommend not
messing with this setting at all. Any higher than 1.00 I noticed the game started to lag.
 Gamma / Brightness: Even though it is defaulted at 1.00 you may want to take it down to 0.90
or so since it seems a little bright compared to the original.

 Hud Scale

Playing with other Mods


To play other mods please place them in the %appdata%\OpenJKDF2\openjkdf2\mods and they will
load in game. Be aware some mods can cause the game to crash or Break Saved Games.. If saved games
break, try removing mods and test to see.
