#########################
Max Manager:
Max Manager is a game manager and launcher for the game Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2, and it's expansion Mysteries of the Sith.
Made because I couldn't get older programs to work on Windows 10. It has a number of features to make running the game easier in 2022.

#########################
Game Paths:
When you first start the program, click on "Game Paths" and input the location of your game folders.

#########################
Game Mode:
Click on "MOTS Manager" or "JK Manager" to switch between Jedi Knight and Mysteries of the Sith launchers.

#########################
Launch:
Click the Launch button to start the game.

#########################
Add Mod:
The Add Mod button will install a selected Mod.  Clicking the checkbox next to the name will enable or disable it.

#########################
Link Mods:
If you select 2 or more mods that are not fully compatible, the link mods button will turn blue.
The "Link Mods" button will open a dialog that can merge certain mod files for compatability.

The "Merge Multiplayer Characters" button will do just that, and allow you to install multiple skin packs at once.

The "Merge Templates" button allows for merging more complex mods.  There are probably limited scenarios where this
will work, such as weapon mods that only replace a single weapon, or mods that otherwise wont interfere with each other.
Results may vary.

Press the "Remove Merged Files" button when you want to unlink linked mods.

#########################
Player Editor:
Select your player profile to configure all the player options.
Within the Player Config you can use the Controls Configuration Editor to set up keybinds outside the game.

########### Recommended Compatability Mods ##############
JKGFX:
The JKGFX mod is recommended for compatability with Windows 7 and up.  This adds native support for modern Graphics Cards.

#########################
JKGFX Editor:

If you have JKGFX installed, a button will show up in the top left.  Click the checkbox to enable or disable the mod.
Click the button to change the JKGFX settings.
IMPORTANT!**Remember to enable 3D accelleration in the in-game settings menu!**

#########################
Music Player:

If you have the Steam or GOG version of Jedi Knight, the game music will be installed as .OGG files.
Unfortunately on Windows 10 people have had various music issues, from the music playing once and not looping,
to the music not playing at all.  To work around this, the music player has been added to the launcher, which
plays the music independently of the game. It will cycle through all the tracks normally, or you can randomize them.

#########################
Retrieve IP:
This button provides an easy way to get your computers public IP address for hosting multiplayer games.

#########################
Version 1.0.1 : Fixed mods folder not being created if JK executable is not found. Gives a warning now.
