Hi Hi's, My desire to make a new map has always been there, except now I have finally came up with a worthwhile idea. The general idea is that teamwork using both a certain level of agility and quick thinking should allow you and your team mate (as the training halls will be intended for two people) to prevail a certain obstacle course. Let me know what you think of it and any suggestions on what to add or not to add are always welcomed. For those who are unfamiliar with my map's, do note that there is always a 'control' room available for the admins and several hidden rooms, each holding a significant value to the map. But enough chit chat for now. I would like some input from the Jedi Order and what they think of it. On a last note, this level will NOT be dedicated to the Jedi Order as this map is intended for public use. |

I like maps such as this, and judging by the history of what you wrote in your application, I think it is safe to say that you probably will finish it. My only concern is if it is just a course of sorts, or if it has other applications too. If this map is just for the purpose of an obstacle course, then I beleive it might restrict it's use, but if the obstacle course is but one feature of are larger map itself, then that is something that could get used much more. |

Well Jedi Knight Mydin, So far, I have found great schematics of the Jedi Temple and I am already making the first sketches for my temple. I'll post some screens once I have something worthwhile. As I have seen in the schematics, there are 3 usable floors within the temple and that is what has been brought to light during the movies. I will most likely add rooms as I complete it as the brush limit is around 26k. The obstacle course will just be a part of the whole thing. I do have some idea's as to how to .. generally reset the whole thing, but nothing yet which allows me to give the players a really .. 'WOW' feeling. |

First off, I am aware that I am double posting here, but I wanted to make some updates to this thread and I am not able to edit my previous post. Ok, on to my first point. I have mentioned in my previous post that I wouldn't dedicate it to the Jedi Order, but I have made a decision, namely that I would make a separate level for the Order. Some of the differences would be that there will be separate chambers installed for certain individual characters import in the Jedi Order. Well uhm, I am afraid to say that I can not think of any more additions to this temple. One thing I will not do is add logo's of the order as I am of the opinion that it would ruin the overall level, well maybe a some text on the door as to appoint it to a Jedi member, but who will know. Currently I have the following utilities: (Placed in order of appearance on the Star Wars Wiki)
I will add several quests where teamwork IS REQUIRED so that should be a challenge too, not only to build but to complete as well :3 I do have a couple of screenshots to add with this post, to give you a general idea of what it will look like as I will make damn sure it will be as realistic as possible. Posted Image The next one is something I found in the later stages of my sketch development. But a good source to make sketches of none the less. Posted Image I will also use other sources such as scenes of the Star Wars films and various games such as Star Wars Battlefront II. I also hope to receive some more input from the members. As I was a bit disappointed with the results so far and yes, I do realize it is Christmas and that people are having a good time with their families. The estimated time will be between 4 and 8 months. (Not only to map it, but I have to make my life come first.) Merry christmas to those I haven't wished it yet. Cheers, ~|G|amecouncil |

It looks really cool. Know what'd be awesome? If you could make it so that in the sith holding pens, force cannot be used. Just to add to the authenticity! X) S'all I've got so far. |

It does really sound good, infact, you posting updates is make it feel almost as if it is being released soon. I can't see the screenshots yet so I won't comment but I look forward to seeing this map progress :) |

He built the stairs/entrance and showed it to me. Comparing what he made and the pictures...this map is gonna be HUGE! How much of the temple do you want to recreate? |

Well, I intend to make the layout of the entire temple and fill it with rooms such as described a few posts earlier, but even that will not be enough to fill all the available space and there will be room for updates. Also, I can't add to much because the polygons would make for bad FPS, but I want to include a .. genuine feeling to the place so it'll be good for RPG atleast. |
