========
Over two months in development, this has been my first major project for Jedi Knight 2. Based opon characters I have created for the star wars universe IZaNaGI is a ronin (Outcast) jedi on the run from both the light and dark sides of the force.
There are many features in the mod but the main aspect is just to survive the wave after wave of enemys and other surprises. There are over 80 enemys over roughly 17-18 waves in a large open arena but dont worry cos you'll have the assistance of another ronin jedi, IZaNaMI (Based upon my gorgeous girlfriend Nikki's ideas).
3 game modes, Normal (Under normal JK2 settings), Realistic (Far more chance you'll be cut up into chunky morsels), and Cheater (For the Noob in us all) it doesnt really need explaining that much more but I guarantee they're all fun and fast paced.
Also i have rehauled the Main menu and it now has a great Sith feel to it.
I've tinkered with almost every character's AI so they react differently in my mod than they would of in JK2 Regular, they fight better, or even worse in some instances.
And I've changed it so different reborn classes have different saber colours (Just to add variety) Oh yeah and the theme music is a "Sample" of PaperCut by Linkin Park :oD

Story:
=======
With IZaNaGI and IZaNaMI now on the run from both dark and light sides of the force, they stumble upon an ancient moon to rest on. Unfortunately after only what seems to be moments of rest, they hear remnant troops scouting the area.
After fleeing the area they decide to hide in an abandoned temple, or was it?? Entering the temple the huge stone doors close's behind them, trapping the duo.
"He's no good to me dead reborn!!!" Mumbles a gruff sounding character in the distance
"Yes Master Boba. May the force be with you Muh ha ha ha!!!!"
Now realising there arch enemy Boba Fett has them in his talons, the duo must fight there way out of the temple, or be frozen in carbonite and sold to the highest bidder ...
=======
Bugs and faults:
=======
Unfortunately if you die, the game resets to its default settings (Normal blue saber, and no other settings) So if you want another go on Realistic mode for example just abandon game and reselect it.
Also i dont suggest starting your regular JK2 SP game and then starting my mod, as it does tend to load the normal kyle model, but with IZaNaGI's skin and it just looks crazy and will ruin the game!
There shouldn't be any other problems but if in the rare event someone can find one PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE email me @ samurai_design@hotmail.com so i can fix them.
=======
Installation:
=======
Install the entire contents of this mod into your C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars JK II Jedi Outcast\GameData folder, or wherever your Gamedata folder can be found. Then open JK2 as usual then go into options/mods and select "IZaNaGI's Survival" to activate the mod.
DON'T install into your base folder as it may cause major overwriting on your regular JK2, plus my Mod wont work :o))
To uninstall just delete the whole izanagi file then erm .... empty your recycle bin :op
