This project aims to recreate the levels and playing experience of the LucasArts game Dark Forces using the modern 3D engine found in the game Jedi Knight - Jedi Academy.
We will be re-creating all 14 levels found in the original game and bringing them into the 21st century.
Given the capabilities of the modified Quake 3 engine this project is very exciting indeed. Weapons, enemies and models will be re-created aswell as other features of the original game.
Soon you'll be playing Dark Forces with gorgeous visuals, brilliant effects and fantastic playability!

Played the 6-level demo first time. You can see that it's not the finished version, there are a few bugs in it. But:
Altough there are bugs it's great!!!!
A big compliment to the DF team! Keep up that great work!
I wanna try that
Someone has to tell teh guys to update their moddb page if they are not dead
You're right, but you could also click the link to their homepage, and look at the news page - because I'm also understanding that its a little bit more work to update a dozen newspages than to post a link to the news ;)
This mod still lives!!! Drop by the website to see the progress being made.
oh wow!! i still have dark forces on disk! never managed to complete it though =]
I have it on PS1 and haven't completed it :/ I got it about 2 months ago at a boot sale after looking everywhere for it :D
It's not a joke. I just downloaded it, and it's amazing! Best Jedi Academy mod IMO.
man,this mod really must be dead
