EDIT: A bug has been found where the death trigger upon falling in the water does not work with TaystJK. It has currently been tested to work with OpenJK, however other engine versions may or may not have the same bug (if you find one let me know so I can update this list!). Thanks to Circa for bringing this issue to my attention!  Fixed in updated version!
 
Oasis Mesa is an island in the middle of a vast and unforgiving sea on a hostile world. With a mysterious door, and equipment surrounding it from an attempt to break inside, the Empire's former interest in the island is apparent - but what is unclear is where they are now, or if they left on their own terms. Explore the mysteries of Oasis Mesa, and defeat anyone who might try and stop you from learning its secrets. 
This duel map is an experiment in porting a level created in Unreal Engine into Jedi Academy, with the goal of modernising the way maps are made and can look. It is also Rend2 compatible, with PBR shaders for most textures in the level. I created the map entirely in Unreal Engine 4, exported the meshes and textures to Blender to prepare them for Jedi Academy, and then did the final assembly in NetRadiant. This meant minimal time spent in NetRadiant, and minimal brushwork. If you play this map, please let me know in the comments what performance you get on yours specs, so I can see how viable this method is. Personally, I've been getting a stable 120 fps in OpenJK, with Rend2 enabled, on my GTX1650. 

Features:
- High poly optimised models with PBR shaders (if using Rend2 in OpenJK)
- Limited Bot route support
- Arena file for menu support
- Custom soundtrack created specifically for this map

A simple splash screen replacer that combines the aesthetics of the original game with that of modern entries in the Star Wars franchise, predominantly inspired by Jedi: Fallen Order. 
 
This has been tested at 1080p widescreen resolution using OpenJK - if there are any issues at other resolutions/in vanilla please let me know in the comments.
