Instead of licensing the DOOM engine, like many competitors, LucasArts created its own internal Jedi engine. The game marks LucasArts' first attempt to enter the first-person shooter market. This leads him to face off against Imperial General Rom Mohc and the various iterations of his Dark Troopers - cybernetic soldiers with the armor and firepower to turn the tide of the war.ĭark Forces is a close prequel to the original Star Wars movie trilogy. After having stolen the Death Star plans from a remote facility, he is tasked with investigating the sudden destruction of a hidden Rebel base. Also note that you'll need the full Dark Forces game as TFE replaces the executable, not the game itself.Kyle Katarn is a former Imperial officer turned mercenary, now hired by the Rebel Alliance.
It only supports Windows 7 and later right now but Mac and Linux support is being planned as part of an early 2023 update. Version 1.0 of The Force Engine is available from our Downloads section or GitHub for those interested in giving it a try. The game was generally well received on computers, with some comparing it to Doom but with more advanced features. Star Wars: Dark Forces launched in early 1995 for MS-DO and Macintosh, and a year later on the original PlayStation. It's worth noting that these are all optional features and if you want a full vanilla experience, all of the quality-of-life improvements can be turned off. There is also a new save system that can be used for exit saves or however often you see fit. Other enhancements include full mouselook support, an aiming reticle and an improved Boba Fett AI. With TFE, you can play Dark Forces with high-resolution and widescreen support. The project's creator said the goal with Dark Forces was for TFE to replace DOSBox and the original executable, and to be compatible with both the vanilla levels and subsequent community mods. The Force Engine (TFE), as the project is known, is now at version 1.0 after three years of development and fully supports Dark Forces. What just happened? Work on a reverse engineering project for the game engine that powered Star Wars: Dark Forces has reached a pivotal milestone, enabling the title to be played on modern systems with a full complement of quality-of-life improvements.
