XD.

 

Is he working on it or something?

Apparently I've been summoned. 

 

Yeah, I was working on it awhile back but decided against it due to the game engine's limitations. The temple area wouldn't be too bad to create, but the beach terrain would be difficult to recreate in Jedi Academy.

Haven't beaches been created before...?

Haven't beaches been created before...?

The one most convincing beach created for Jedi Academy was the Kashyyyk map by Sith J Cull. Other beach maps have had intermediate success pulling it off with horizon lines.

[Futuza]

There's a nice tutorial here on how to do proper horizon blending: https://jkhub.org/tutorials/article/89-horizon-blending/  

It definitely can be done with Jedi Academy, but it does take effort.  Easier by far to make something like this in Cryengine though.

I wasn't aware that you could get results that looked that good with Jedi Academy. So it *is* possible, just tedious. It looks like you'd need two separate maps, one for the temple and one for the beach area.

Not necessarily, you could put it all in one map, it would just be a rather large map.

Not *hinting* at anything, but where could one get textures to for it, sky box included?

[Langerd]

Just make a beach with the Ebon Hawk Prefarb .. The only thing to do is new Tree and rock models and this destroyed ship.. It would be cool duel map

mmm putting maybe the rakatan temple on the skybox as landshape? o.o

should be really a nice map. rakata prime is one of the more wonderful... and also scary world of the saga.

it's "scary" for feelings you are when you go into a post - apocaliptyc world. i get strange feelings by these planet when i played kotor... it's one of the more strangest world i never seen.

something of innatural, but i not know why.

Any updates on a map being made?

Think the Temple would be a good duel map, or the area around the temple.

[Basil Bonehead]

maybe include an accurate recreation of the temples interior?

Its been two years...pretty sure you're going to have to make this yourself if you ever want to see it.

Are you still around?

You had a lot of interest before, not sure if you do anymore.

this doesn't seem tooo complex, can you get me some ingame walkthrough recordings with focus on "detail shots" from this area?

Will try to find some when I get a chance.

[AshuraDX]

@@Lord Of Hate I'd record them myself If I had the game, generic playthrough footage is not ideal if you want to accurately reproduce an area.

Never really had that much interest it in it to begin with.  I'm not really a mapper and I have too many other JK related projects that take up my time, I was merely adding information to the topic about horizon blending/beaches to try and point Kessno in the right direction, should he decide to want to finish the map (or whoever would want to finish it).

plz make this a thing
