We (my testers and me) tested this map on a clear version of JKA (v1.0.1, without bonus mappack). So if there are still some unexpected bugs then you have broken shaders/assets in your base folder. If you are sure that this is not the case contact me personally or in the forums i mentioned above.But i hope that won't be necessary ;P

My third map ever; first for JK3. Detailed reproduction of the DeathBall map Sediment from Unreal Tournament 2003! Original Textures and nearly the same lightning thanks to q3map2. ;D It's a small but long room under water. Ideal for duel/powerduel but ffa and tffa are also possible. Enjoy and good playing on it!

New textures : Yes
New music : No (music/hoth2/hoth2_explore.mp3)
New models : No
 
The map FFA Hoth is part of the Illusions Tec Mappack. This map also has a long development but i had fun with it, too. It consists of three main parts:
The outdoor area
The indoor area
The underground chamber

All three parts are conected with each other and have a quite nice atmosphere. I added a fx_snow to give you a better Hoth feeling. (brrr, cold up here ) I really hope you guys will have as much fun with it as i had when building it. And yes, there is a secret, too. (consoles can be used by pressing use-button) I hope you bring up a good video card because sometimes the fps rate is a bit low. (but still over 25 without glow effect)

The map FFA Desert is part of the Illusions Tec Mappack. After a long development this Desert map is now done. (finaly i have to say because this map was getting on my nerves at the end) It consists of three main parts:
The courtyard
The cantina
The hangar

All three parts are conected with each other and have a quite nice atmosphere. There are also some destroyable parts - some do even change the gameplay... Javas and droids are located here and there to give you a better Tatooine feeling.

Facts about Duel Carbon JA
non-commercial re-creation of Raven's "duel_carbon" from JKII (Jedi Knight II : Jedi Outcast ©Raven Software)
new possibilities of interactivity:
carbon-lift can be used
lights can be switched out/on
few things can be destroyed
new graphics:
supports JA's "Glow"-effect
2 carbon-packs were added
new effects were added
lightning was improved A LOT

 
If you may already recognized is Duel Carbon JA a re-creation of JKII's duel_carbon, which i loved to play and so i decided to do rebuild that map and make it even a little bit better than the original.
 
So all credits go to Raven Software, who developed this map.
 
To achieve this I first rebuild it just from seeing old duel_carbon and not copying any material out of the .map. After that I made the lightning which was terrible in the original the map also supports the glow effect. Next thing was the interactivity and u know in Arevass there wasn't much of this so I decided to put something in here:
 
1st there is the carbon grapper that can be lift up
2nd u can switch some of the lights on/off
and 3rd you can blow up many things.
 
I know thats not too much but maybe it makes fun and gives the map more realism.
 
OK that should be enough

I hope you will enjoy it!

Facts about Temple of the Elders
Made for MB2's Duel Map Contest
The Temple, once made by The Elders, lies in a huge jungle. It was built to protect the world for the thing it hides inside: The Eye of Sargeras- a titan of old times. During the search of the deciples of Ragnos, Luke sensed the Dark Fource that the Eye emits and so the Temple was found...
New dimension of atmosphere (thunderstorm, rain and thunder sounds)
More interactivity - many things are destroyable now

Since this is a rather big map there are plently of things you can use or destroy. Take a look at some of the consoles, shot at crates and use the force!
 
Feel free to make a replacement pack that includes new models for an authentic siege experience. You are allowed to change the classes as well. Send that pack to me (darthnorman@gmx.de) or load it up and just send me the link. The best pack will be hosted it on my site together with this map.
 
Note: You will probably have a bad FPS rate if dynamic glow is enabled.
