Exit out of the game and try running the Graphics Setup file (I don't recall off the top of my head what this file is called exactly) and tweak the graphics settings found within until your issue is fixed :)the problem is that the screen is Black when i am in the game , i can see the ammobar and the healthbar sound is all there but not the graphic i am running it at 3d acc at highest res , have tried to kower the res but same thing no screen what can i do plz

When I first ran Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2, I had a similar problem. I fixed it by creating a shortcut to the JK.EXE file in the game's directory. Then I went into the Properties of the shortcut, and in the Target section I typed in:
-windowgui -displayconfig
At the end of the path. That seemed to work for Win7.

With Mysteries of the Sith, there is a different file that will also need a shortcut to be created. Are you sure you're running the game through the shortcuts and not through the GOG launcher? Also, try to get the game to match your computer's resolution.yyahoo

I had the same problem with hardware mode when i re-installed it on Windows 10. dgVoodoo solved the issue for me.

I had the same problem. Not optimal, but it works for me if I turn off 3D Acceleration. This way the game works, but I have to run it in 16-bit color depth and a 4:3-resolution.

I just dumped the directx dll's from dgvoodoo2 into the game's directory, and it worked with 3D acceleration. Framerate wasn't the best, even on good hardware. But totally playable.

2017 here, still had to use dgVoodoo to get rid of black screen, although i was told GOG version works fine out of the box unlike Steam.
I saw dgVoodoo's announcement about cooperating with GOG to bring integrated hardware rendering support in old games to modern systems, but it was a while ago it's still not implemented on GOG's side.
Also, the game runs at 30fps tops, not sure if it has to do with using dgVoodoo (which i don't know how to setup properly) or is it just capped at 30.

DGVooDoo worked for me by dumping the files in the folder and running the jk.exe (as opposed to the Jedi Knight.exe) but music seems to not be working.
The cantina music plays at the beginning, but the rest of the level is missing john williams score, which in any other game wouldn't be a big deal, but I'm sure you'll all agree with me this game is not the same.

Since the destruction of the second Death Star, the Rebel Alliance has begun the difficult process of building the New Republic.
Seizing the opportunity for control of the galaxy, new rival armies arise. The most dangerous of these are the Dark Jedi. Their leader, Jerec, seeks the legendary Valley of the Jedi.
Within this lost battleground he will find untold power to destroy peace and justice in the galaxy..
The second installment of the Jedi Knight/Dark Forces series, Dark Forces II was released by LucasArts in 1997. The game was originally created as a 2-disk series and is compatible with Windows 95 and 98. More recently, it has been made available via Steam (beginning in September of 2009) or by mounting a torrent file to a virtual CD drive. It is a 3D first-person shooter, although it can be played in third person as well. Like the other installments in the series, it is an action/adventure that features progressive force power development. Each level, with the exception of the battle levels, contains secret areas that can be discovered for extra power stars that are used to increase the rank of force powers. The game features a variety of resolutions, 3D acceleration, high-quality sounds, a phenomenal musical score, and live-action cutscenes and cinematics. It also features the ability to choose to become either a light Jedi or a dark Jedi.
