The Force Engine

“The Force Engine” is a modernised, reverse engineered port of the “Jedi Engine” used in “STAR WARS™: Dark Forces” and “Outlaws”. Currently, only “STAR WARS™: Dark Forces” is supported but there are already many technical and quality‑of‑life improvements:

• Controller support (except in menus)
• Support for mouselook like in modern first‑person shooters
• Complete input remapping for in‑game controls
• Widescreen and high‑resolution support
• Texture filtering and bloom effects on light sources
• Subtitles for dialog (including in‑game incidental dialog)
• Closed captioning for important audio cues in the game
• Translation support for subtitles/captions
• A built‑in mod loader

Future plans include built‑in tools for creating mods and maps for the games as well as Outlaws support.
