JKNet v0.7.0
JKNet 0.7.0 includes every finished change since version 0.6.0.
- Chat with friends. Talk to your JKNet friends one to one or in groups of up to 20, from any screen. The Chats button in the title bar shows your unread messages and opens a chat panel on the right that you can pin beside the page. Message on the Friends screen starts a chat with a friend.
- Chat window. Move chats into a window of their own, or switch it to a compact window that stays on top of a windowed game, with the opacity you choose.
- Messages. Reply with a quote, react with emoji, mention friends with
@, and see who is typing and who has read your messages. Search the last 90 days of your chats by words, sender, links, pictures, videos, files or cards. Sent messages cannot be edited or deleted. - Files and cards. Send pictures, videos, demos, configs and any other file up to 25 MiB, dropped on the chat, pasted from the clipboard or picked from Media. JKNet strips location and camera data from pictures before they leave your PC and asks before saving a program. Share a server, your private server, a bundle, a JKHub mod, a map, a player profile, key binds or a config with Share to chat. Your friends open a card in the matching screen or editor; a card never changes anything on its own.
- Groups and server chats. Any member can add their friends to a group; the group creator renames it, removes members and decides whether new members see earlier messages. If you prefer, friends must invite you instead of adding you. While your private server runs, the friends who join it through JKNet share a chat that is deleted when the server stops.
- Notifications. Choose in-launcher pop-ups, Windows notifications and sounds, set Do not disturb and quiet hours, stay quiet while you play and get one summary afterwards, and set each chat to all messages, mentions only or muted. You also choose whether others see your read receipts and typing; hiding yours also hides theirs from you.
- JKNet in the tray. Closing the JKNet window now keeps JKNet running in the tray, so chats and your private server stay online. Quit from the tray menu with Quit, or make the close button quit again in Settings. JKNet can also start with Windows, hidden in the tray, and starting it a second time brings back the one already running.
Download JKNet_0.7.0_x64-setup.exe for Windows x64 or use the built-in update check. Settings and installed clients are kept. Playing requires your original Jedi Academy or Jedi Outcast files; the installer does not include them.
Chats require signing in to JKNet Online. Messages and files are kept on JKNet Online for 90 days and then deleted; chats are not end-to-end encrypted.
