JKA on Steam Vs RPMod?
I don't have my original disks anymore and was looking to get it off Steam but I don't know if there will be any problems or conflicts with RPMod.
If anyone has done this could you let me know how you got on?
Cheers in advance

Having made the switch, it might of been for that reason, but I am pretty sure I had it up and running...
Lota use that was.

To get RPMod to work with Steam, install as normal (the default directory is C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\jedi academy\GameData etc), then right-click on JKA in your Steam library and select properties.
Now click Set Launch Options and type in +set fs_game rpmod as you would with a regular Windows shortcut.
Now when you launch JKA, RPMod will be loaded automatically. If you want to go back to BaseJKA, you'll have to go back in and delete the fs_game line. It's a minor inconvenience but it's a small price to pay for not needing the disk to play.

Edit: I've been trying to get it off with a download because simply my bought CD's wont work, now that I see how cheap it is on steam my wasted time might aswell go with a simple buy for that low price..

As for Nira's suggestion. I tried that but the issue now is that steam doesn't seem to recognise JKA Multiplayer when you click an external shortcut. It always loads single player for some reason. I've checked all the links too and it's definitely set to jamp.exe sooo /shrug.
I spoke to Soh and just tossed RPMod's assests into the base folder and the game works fine. I just can't play any other mods that way. Not that i did to begin with mind you lol

Only problem I have now is when I run the shortcut through Steam, it'll launch JA+. Got the same target and start in boxes the same as the shortcut from the installer, have no idea why it wants to run JA+. Hoping to find a way around this but it probably just needs a reinstall. It's never happened before, but it might have been when I accidentally put the rpmod folder in the japlus folder and tried to run it.
Other than that, it works just as well on Steam as it would buying the disks. The only difference is it auto updates and installs in a different directory, as said above.
EDIT: Fixed. Works fine now
