== Mod Information ==
I've been trying to make a custom skin for JK3 for a while now, but damn, that stuff is a lot harder than it looks.
My hat's off to those who can do it well. But I still wanted to make a mod, so I did this instead.
This isn't your usual startup screen mod, where it replaces the Windows menu where you select Single Player or
Multiplayer Game. Instead, this file replaces the boring ol' text-on-a-dark-blue-background screen that is shown when
you initially load up Jedi Academy, both in Single Player and Multiplayer. Also, you know that level-loading screen
where it shows the human male Jedi locking up with the Twi'lek female? Or the one in Single Player where it shows the
three shots of the Zabrak female doing a saber twirl? This replaces those too.
See, it's not really a startup screen. So I'm calling it an art pack instead.
--------------------------------------------------------
== Installation ==
Put the tavion_art_pack.pk3 file in your \LucasArts\Star Wars Jedi Knight Jedi Academy\GameData\base folder. It's a snap!
To uninstall, simply move or delete the tavion_art_pack.pk3 file from your
\LucasArts\Star Wars Jedi Knight Jedi Academy\GameData\base folder. Couldn't be easier!
--------------------------------------------------------
== Features ==
Like I said above, this is just a new piece of art that is shown as the game loads, as well as new level-loading
screens. Nothing too fancy.
--------------------------------------------------------
== Distribution Notes ==
This mod was created to be enjoyed by everyone, so feel free to distribute this pk3 as much as you'd like without my
permission. However, if I find out that someone has used my artwork for something of their own without giving me credit
(such as reusing any of these images with my web address removed from them), heads will roll. Sure, I can't find out
about everything, but just remember: simply by creating this artwork, all three images contained within this file are
© 2004 Steven C. Scott. No joke. Read up on copyright law sometime. To use them without my permission is theft. And
thieves die and go to Hell forever. So watch out!
But wait... the images are of characters which are copyrighted to LucasArts... um, maybe I didn't think this through
completely....
Seriously, if you want to use these images for something, just drop me a line at ramutboxo@hotmail.com and tell me what
you're up to. I'm reasonable. Chances are, I'll give you the A-OK.
--------------------------------------------------------
== Thanks/Development Credits ==
Just like everybody else, I'd first like to thank Raven Software for creating one hell of a game. (Now make some new
Siege maps, dammit!)
Thanks to George Lucas for creating three awesome movies and two mediocre ones (I'll leave which are which up to
the reader), which established the Star Wars universe.
Thanks to Amidala. I didn't know how I should format this ReadMe file, so I just copied hers.
And thanks to the whole crew at tastes like chicken, whose paychecks make it possible for me to sit around and play
video games on the weekends.
