1.23 is downloaded separately from plus, by the way.

Oh wait. I just figure out my JJ2 version is 1.20, not 1.23...
I used the patch and I have JJ2+ now.
But I still can't use JJ2+ for TSF 'cause of LK Avalon.

Find a TSF without LK Avalon, I remember I had one, if I can find it I will give it to you.

Yeah but just install TSF, not TSF & Plus, because the plus on the installer it's an older version. Install TSF and download the plus from here: JJ2+

What? but he didn't put any link.

No, but he did post instructions including a website name. Just because it's not a link you can click on doesn't mean it's allowed.

Actually last night I found TSF without LK Avalon, and I have JJ2+ and JJ2+ TSF right now. :P

If JCF and some other site (site removed -- Torkell) are for the same community, then i dont see a reason to not post the instructions from that reply

They're not the same community, and have a different host. Some other site (site removed -- Torkell) is more about the ladders and "competitive" side of the community. They're more relaxed about posting warez. It's probably to do with host provider rules.

I doubt that some other site's (site removed -- Torkell) host provider allows warez. If more people visited, eventually someone would report a virus (JJ2+) to their ISP, which could result in the site being taken off the web. The problem is lack of distinction between virus and warez.

Plus the communities are basically same. Just two different subsets of the same group of spam bots.

I already even reported some other site's (site removed -- Torkell) piracy to Epic's twitter.

TRAITOR!

Alright, enough of this. This is the JJ2+ thread, not the "should sites permit warez" thread.

Feel free to create such a thread if you want to continue the discussion, as long as you obey the "no warez/abandonware" rule.

Also, while I've removed the name of the site in the previous posts that doesn't mean you can't post about it or link to it. Just not in the context of providing warez (otherwise we'd have to block Google ).

JJ2+...Virus? Really? You fished that joke right from the desert.

I wouldn't worry about piracy until Epic actually bothers to redistribute JJ2.

But I better not say much else, because oh wait, it's actually a joke that no one else gets but Krsplat himself, but no one understands because they're dry as sandpaper, so you don't always know when he's actually serious.

1. Idk.

2. That's Gry's fault, he didn't include menu.j2b in the installer. Nor the intro or bonus music. The J2O mod archive isn't working right now, so the only way I can think of getting the menu music, is downloading this;

I never tested this, but try starting Jazz2.exe with the -nojoy command. Just enter your JJ2 install path with Jazz2.exe -nojoy from the Run dialog, command line, or anywhere else where stuff can be ran from.

At least these songs are included in the Shareware game, so perhaps try and download a shareware JJ2 copy from any source on the net, install it, and copy those songs to your JJ2+ folder.

Don't be silly.

thanks a lot, worked perfectly!!!

Window JJ2 plus if it's on fullscreen, go to sounds tab (or however is it called) and uncheck Mute Music. If this is not the problem, idk.

Christmas is almost here. When will the new version of JJ2+ be released? I feel... outdated...

Let's look at what changes are anticipating in the next plus release.

- Powered up electroblaster (ice blue color)
- Bugfix about using mouse wheel in menu screen or serverlist causing crashes

- A new enum
- Additional bird option/s
- Whatever those JJ1-themed screenshots were about

Good to know but seriously, I can't wait anymore.
Also, does anyone know where can I find JJ v1.00g (Beta)?

Sounds nice!


A question: will the bug that crashes JJ2+ when starting the game in fullscreen mode be fixed? The bug has been reported by me and various others in the years past, and I believe it's there since one of Blur's later releases. It only happens when you last quit JJ2+ in fullscreen mode. The current workaround is to always start with the -menu flag, but that still exits fullscreen and somehow minimizes the window each time.

Another 'issue' I have is with the removal of the 70FPS limit in fullscreen. I don't know why or how, but for me vanilla JJ2 runs smoother in fullscreen than Plus does, which shows minor stuttering during movement. It's not a big deal or anything, but maybe make a .ini setting that allows players to choose a target framerate for (at least) fullscreen mode?

Perhaps I'm one of the few players that uses fullscreen most of the time, so I hope I'm not such a bother with these issues.

Slaz, do you have a JJ2 beta version? I can't find any on the internet.

Perhaps getting Tweedle to work? It would be my fav boss if it would work.

Why is it so hard for you to understand that this forum forbids illegal content including warez and even if somebody wanted to, they couldn't post a link to a non-shareware version of any Jazz Jackrabbit game?

The Beta was completely free.
From wiki: "Two of the versions were distributed along with some of Intel’s hardware (the result of an Epic-Intel deal), and one of them was a press release which surfaced publically around May 2004."

The Beta was included in some of Intel's hardware, so Intel PCs had JJ2 Beta installed.

Why is it still forbidden to post links to the JJ2 full games since Epic doesn't sell them anymore? This is just silly!

If people are not allowed to post here a link, please send me one of the Beta versions on my email: primpymail@gmail.com

Just because you could get JJ2 along with buying hardware, doesn't mean it's free.

I don't agree with abandonware with being illegal either, but rules are rules. This isn't the place to ask where to download certain copies.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but the JJ2 beta just contains different levels. You can just ask someone here that has them. And i'm PREETY SURE some people here have them (not me ).

I understand but DAMN! It's insanely hard to find a beta version of JJ2!

I didn't know it contains different levels, but that's good to know.

Well, if someone who has any beta version of JJ2, please reply on this thread or send me the game: primpymail@gmail.com

I dont think the beta contains any "new" levels, unless you count the MP ones.

This is not a 1.00g topic. Shoo! We have a perfectly good article about the differences, and you can play the 1.00 MP levels in 1.23 nowadays anyway.

I don't see any harm in answering this question; yes, it has. blur arose from the dead and edited some code that nobody else understood and now that particular crash is gone. (Or so I've been told, since I wasn't personally able to trigger it to begin with.)

My position on Tweedle is that someone should just code him/them up in AngelScript. If they do a good enough job, maybe it could be converted into JJ2+ code, but in the meantime there's nothing preventing people from writing their own Tweedle behaviors just as with any other sprite set.

At least making Tweedle as a normal enemy? It surprises me that nobody tried to code Tweedle. It would make a great boss.

Whoever is making a level where they want to use Tweedle boss, will have ample reason and opportunity to make AngelScript code for Tweedle. Although there probably is no precedent for how to use Tweedle in a level, which could make it harder.

May I suggest a search bar for "Home Cooked Levels" section? I've got 209 levels, and sometimes I just want to go to the bottom of the list or somewhere in the middle really quick.

There's several improvements for that in the next release that will solve your problems, I think.
