| Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Cheat Codes: ------------ Submitted by: David K. How to Skip Intro: ------------------ Written by DiRgE This guide explains how you can skip intro. -=How-To=- Go to the game Movies folder that is located at: * \Jedi Survivor\SwGame\Content\Movies If you have difficulties reaching here, it will depend where you bought the game. -=Rename this files=- * Default_Startup.mp4 into _Default_Startup.mp4 * Default_Startup_Loop.mp4 into _Default_Startup_Loop.mp4 How to Cap the FPS: ------------------- If you can’t open the game or it crashes then what I’m saying here doesn’t apply but if you can get to the main menu, apply whatever settings you want to use in the options and then close the game. That way those settings are saved and then you can navigate to and find a configuration file for the game settings and in that file is a command to limit your FPS. And why you may be interested in doing this is because for whatever reason that setting is not in the game options so essentially the game is just running at an uncapped or variable framerate by default and that can introduce more stutters and frame pacing issues. Yes you cap your FPS other ways but sometimes doing it with what is built-in to the game can work a little better. I however don’t think this game is meant to run anymore than 120 fps so, the two limits that I would set are either 60 or 120. The config file gets created here once you load the game and your settings are saved: x:\Users(your name\AppData\Local\SwGame\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor\ "GameUserSettings.ini" Navigate down under /Script/SwGame.SwGameUserSettings Find the line that says: FrameRateLimit= By default it’s at 00.000000 (so unlimited) type in 60 or 120 (and yes leave it as 60.000000 or 120.000000) or whatever you prefer (I’m not sure though if other values would work well) and then save and then close the file. This is not going to magically solve poor performance but by capping your FPS, things can sync up smoother between your GPU and monitor’s refresh rate and again why this is not an option that you can set in game, I don’t know. To me that should be a given setting that is available to change and set in any modern game. Useful Tips for Beginners: -------------------------- -=Hidden Features and Options=- * Jedi Survivor features a robust accessibility options menu, which is great for offering players of all skill levels and aptitudes different ways to play the game, and there are many helpful settings that you may want to make use of. * You’ll find settings such as disabling fall damage, navigation assist to enable mission waypoints, control scheme modifications, and even slow-motion combat options. * By default, Photo Mode can only be accessed by opening the menu. However, when navigating to the Accessibility menu, you’ll have the option to turn on and modify Shortcuts Controls. This essentially replaces the default Touchpad button on PlayStation 5 with four customizable shortcuts that can range from Photo Mode, Holomap, Audio Ping, Slow Mode, Puzzle Hint, and Nav Assist Ping. -=Force Attack and Combat Tips * You can hold L1 and then press Triangle / Y to throw your lightsaber. This is especially handy for taking out Probe Droids before they explode on you. (Just be aware that this uses some of your Force Meter, so you can’t just do it over and over and over.) * You may remember a scene in Star Wars: The Phantom Menace where Qui-Gon Jin simply force pushes a group of Battle Droids to disable them. Cal can do this as well! The basic Battle Droids are incredibly weak, and you can often send out a well-timed push to destroy multiple droids with a single push rather than trying to engage them up close. * Many enemies you encounter can perform red unblockable attacks. However, if the enemy is susceptible to Cal’s Force powers, you’ll be able to cancel some unblockable attacks by countering with a well-timed Force attack. If an enemy turns blue instead of red, this means they are even more susceptible to a force move like Push to throw them off-balance. * Sharpen your Jedi Abilities by making full use of the Training option that’s available when accessing the Meditation menu. Unlocked when first visiting Koboh, you’ll have the chance to learn how to wield your lightsaber and defend yourself from enemy forces in Basic and Advanced training challenges. These challenges range from attacking, blocking, reflecting and deflecting, parrying, and even evading enemy attacks. * If you’re looking to regain your Force meter more quickly, try performing the Advanced Evade technique that sees you evading enemy attacks right before they land to regain a small amount of Force (used by pressing the dodge button at the last moment without moving away). This is extremely helpful in encounters that have you facing multiple enemies at once — especially those that are considered quite challenging, as you’ll be able to build your Force meter much quicker. You’ll know if you’re successful in performing an Advanced Evade, as Cal will dodge the attack in slow motion. * It’s unlikely that you won’t know that you’re on low health, as the health bar isn’t particularly hidden, but another way to know if you’re in the red is to look at BD-1. The lights on the back of his head change color to match your health bar, so when his lights go red, you know that you need to heal! * Cal is invulnerable as he is casting his slow-time ability. This means that you can cast it without fear of being interrupted, allowing you to use the time afterward to get your bearings and reset before pressing the attack. * Accessing the Holomap does not pause the game, so be sure to check your surroundings before opening the map, as it’ll leave you vulnerable to all incoming damage. -=Customization Tips=- * There are a lot of customization options to unlock, including clothing for Cal. Most of them you can freely swap out colors for, but if it says the color options are locked, you’ll need to find another chest holding the color mods. * Another fun tip to be aware of is that some of the Cal’s Beard options allow you to customize the length of the stubble, so if you want to give Cal his more clean-shaven appearance from the first game, this is how you do it. -=Exploration Tips=- * Upon reaching Koboh, you’ll begin to encounter Scavenger Droids, who are described as anxious, greedy droids that often pick up and hoard any valuable materials they can get their hands on. One of these valuables is Priorite Shards, so be sure to kill these droids whenever you encounter them. Just be warned, their loot isn’t automatically picked up, so you will be required to manually search their bodies. If you have trouble sneaking up on them, you can simply approach from behind and toss your lightsaber at them! * Some Side Quests can be completed without returning to the quest giver; however, that won’t stop you from paying them a visit to unlock additional story dialogue. A prime example of this is seen after the completion of the ‘Find the * Missing Prospectors’ Side Quest, as the Prospector that had you investigating the nearby mine will reveal her true motives when Cal explains his findings. * Be sure to speak to all NPCs until you’re out of options, as with some prompting and persistence, characters such as Skoova and DD-EC will provide a Databank entry for your efforts. * Before leaving Koboh, we recommend collecting a total of 10 Datadiscs. This will allow you to purchase an additional Perk slot upgrade from Zee’s Datadisc Decryption store found on the second floor of Pyloon’s Saloon. If you’re unwilling to give up all your datadiscs so soon, you can also check the perks she sells. One of her Perks, Wisdom, increases the amount of XP gained by defeating enemies, which will really add up in the long run and help unlock new Skills faster. * At numerous points throughout the game, Cal will have the opportunity to use Jedi Mind Tricks on people to persuade them and change what they’re doing. You’re usually presented with a choice as to what to tell the person, but this choice doesn’t affect the outcome of the conversation, so don’t be scared to choose the option you want to pick most. * While Enemy Databank entries might seem like a novelty at first glance, they do, in fact, serve a purpose beyond just providing some helpful tips, as each enemy you scan will automatically become unlocked for a tactical tabletop mini-game that is added to the second floor of the Saloon after completing the Odd Pair Rumor. This mini-game will have you pitting your unlocked troops against competitors from around the Saloon that will reward you with unique material colors, treasures, and more should you beat them. So, without enemy data scans, your arsenal of troops will be bare, and it’ll be virtually impossible to win many of the challenges. * There’s more to Rumors than meets the eye, as unlike traditional Side Quests, most Rumors will simply complete after they lead you to places that need to be explored. It’ll then be up to you to explore these areas further to undercover their rewards, which usually include Cosmetics, Force Echoes, Perks, Treasures, and much more. * It’s never explicitly explained when or how you’ll unlock new abilities that can help you open those annoying blocked paths you’ll frequently encounter. Thankfully, without delving too much into spoiler territory, we can confirm that all Abilities used to unblock these paths are unlocked solely through main story progress. |
