CREDITS
--------
Many thanks to all those who helped along the way (you know who you are), and thanks to LucasArts (dated: last decade) for creating such a wonderful game. No, not *this* game. Its forefather, Dark Force 2: Jedi Knight. Also a round of applause for Planetside Software, makers of Terragen. Where would we be without it?

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Dump this is your gamedata/base directory within your Jedi Academy directory.

DESCRIPTION
------------
Back in the heyday of the JK series, things were better. Nicer. Prettier. Well, this map may not be prettier, but it's a tribute to Dark Forces 2, the granddaddy of Jedi Academy. This map features the multiplayer version of the Valley of the Jedi Tower, where Kyle Katarn faces and destroys Maw during the JK1 SP campaign.

This map was completely for the Jan-Feb '07 JKFiles Mapping Contest, for the intermediate skill level.

New Textures: Yes

BUGS
-----
This is primarily a duel map, but I couldn't resist adding FFA support to live out memories of childhood bloodbaths. As such, bot support has been included. This map isn't ideal for bot support, and I'm not a botrouting whiz, so prepare to have some stuck bots. I fixed most of the *big* errors, though.

Also, you will notice that the cargo ship is not there. Maybe in the future, although to be fair it's really not needed.

COMMENTS
---------
For those of you who started your JK series experience with Jedi Outcast, or god forbid Jedi Academy... oh how I pity you. In keeping with DF2 spirit, I added a few pickups in the map. Mainly health. Since the pickups in JA don't quite match up with those in DF2, a couple of them are kind of random, such as the Force boon. But what the hey? It works.
