51 comments by jacksonj04 on Mar 9th, 2008 digg this super bookmark


Archiving mods isn't something we like doing. We dislike banning mods even more. However, Knights of the Force has finally reached the point where - despite numerous chances at redemption and erring on the side of goodwill - we have decided to add it to our small list of "Don't touch this with a very long stick" mods.

As some of you may be aware, KotF has long had a reputation of being a sham mod with no original content, never delivering what was promised when it was promised. This was compounded by allegations of attempting to charge for the mod, misappropriation of donations and various other stuff. Mod DB's policy of not getting involved with the politics of individual mods was rolled out time and time again in response to various users asking (And in some cases demanding) that we ban the mod, TimFx, and anybody else who happened to say that perhaps the mod might be legitimate.

Months passed and it all faded away, only to be brought back to the forefront a couple of days ago with the advent of Knights of the Force 2.0 (Part 1). We duly downloaded the file, read the readme, noticed the mentions of the virus alert, checked the checksums and decided that at least one part of the mod was as described - there was no virus in cmdow.exe. The rest of the mod looked to be vaguely correct to our non-Jedi-Academy-playing eyes, so we tentatively authed the download.

Two days later, we've been getting allegations of trojans of varying degrees, pointless file bulking, distribution of LucasArts' original content, non-attribution of some content and various other stuff. Some of this is verified, other is scaremongering. Either way this adds up to what is, in the eyes of some of Mod DB's core staff, a simple verdict:

Pull it. We've given enough chances for the mod's reputation to be restored.

For legal reasons and to avoid the subsequent headaches I'm not going to make or repeat specific accusations against the mod or say which of the above we believe to be true, but suffice to say we believe it has broken several of Mod DB's terms of use, and just goes against the spirit of the entire modding community. We have pulled the 2.0 (Part 1) download completely and banned the mod, although you may find the changes haven't rippled out to you by the time you read this.

Any questions you have we'll do our best to answer in here if you post a comment, or if you'd rather not say something publically then fire me a PM.

Great mod?
It was all stolen work from other people and all he did was package them up and add a fancy menu.
That and he put viruses in every release of the mod.

"if you have not got anything nice to say about this mod don't say it at all this is a brilliant mod and any true star wars fan would know that! everyone else patience part 2 will be here soon cause i really wanna play it 2 "

Er... what? There's nothing in "KotF mod" that you can't do in baseJA. It's not a mod at all.

And don't think "Part 2" will have any of the other features he's promised but not delivered; he doesn't have anywhere near the amount of source code access he'd need to create those features.

Ask any coder who has worked on JA - they'll tell ya.

The best thing YOU can do, is get rid of it, and use that 1.2GB of hard drive space that you've wasted on absolutely NOTHING, to install the original Dark Forces 2. It's an excellent game!

nik4455 - Well, I'm not sure how much "effort" was really involved. Nothing he showed was actually his own work, except maybe some of the mish-mashing he did for the levels. Anything he did do himself was likely a breach of the license agreement.

Sadly the mod was either a money-spinning scam (worst-case) or a completely over-blown and illegal project (best-case).

I hope it is because of the uploading of part 2 :) maybe it is too much huge for his FTP so Tim is maybe speaking with his hoster :) that's why kotf website is probably offline!

Nope. KotF is offline because people finally worked out that it was all complete rubbish. There won't be a Part 2, and if there is it will be full of stolen content and illegally modified source code.
