This is my first map since completing the ={FeTT}= Playground back in the end 2003, this is my first unique map for JK that hasn't been clan based at all.
Based on anciant temples across the planet, Aztec, Egyption, Greek and Roman architecture have been moulded together into a fluid building scheme and i feel they work quite well.
I started it way back in October/Novemeber as a test to create a Yavin like Jedi academy, but i soon became board of it and collected cyber dust for months. After a while i returned to it and finished off the main hall and i wanted to add something similar to a river or lake, but decided that would suck up FPS like a sponge so i decided a courtyard area would probably be more suited. My idea for a water based feature wasn't completely scrapped though as i decided to make an indoor bath house, that looks real neat and has been made to look as if its giving off a creepy green aura inside.
There are three main area's created mostly to encourage FFA'ing or exploration, with a few nice places to find, and even some secret areas, one of which is a prison area that can only be accessed with certain admin mods that use the /amtele command.
The music choice (Shelob's Lair from LOTR) has also been added to not only give a sense of unease about the area but to also encourage frantic FFA'ing.
Features include:
A large area for open FFA play
New textures
New Music
Bot support
Secret area's
Highly optimized map runs roughly 90+ FPS on a good Computer.
I hope who ever plays this map enjoy's it and that it gets some good server time as that is what is was made specifically for.

Known Issues
=======
Beta testing shows that slower CPU's dont view the tree's properly on occasion, probably due to details such as grass and rain.
