Hi Lord Rive here...
Just thought i would let you all know of a project im working on, though its long from finished. Now dont get me wrong DOMS map although ive never seen him on the servers much, rocks and right now i dont have the skill or ability to better his map. I have been prcticing with the editor for some time now and have a load of maps i havent released because id be just too imbarised to show. My work has improved vastly and ive made a start on a new academy map that i hope will replace the current one for reasons of practicality. Here is a list of some of the features of the map so far... 1. Ther is a large dualing room that strongly resembles everybodys fav dualing room, the matrix as it has been afectionatly named  This will help the JATS or JAKS that on the server police it a little better. For example a new student is causing problems outside by attacking people with thier saber off, all that has to be done is to watch for the window
2. Currently the courtyard is the FFA gun fighting area at the moment. This is being replacet with a dual/tournament platform posably with a mirror like surface, i will try to acomplish this and keep FPS up, if it cant be done it wont be included. Instead the FFA gun area will be the hanger that i am going to try and copy from the single player game as much as possable. 3. The map that we are currently playing on doesnt have areas where people can go to to train with one or more perople, for example Knights and their PADs will have special rooms were the can go to without being disturbed. JATS will also have a special lounge were only they are aloud, so will JAKS and thier PADs can follow if given permission. 4. If i can find a way (because im quite new to the editior) camera terminals will be included to hellp the JATS keep the peace a little easier so they dont have to travel the whole length of the map to deal with problems. 5. Dualing rooms will be included as well as 'FUN' areas for example the jungle training room among others. If the are any in paticular people would like to see in the final version please post your sugestions.
6 EASTER EGGS!!! special areas of the map will EXTREMLY WELL HIDDEN. Not at all as easy to find as the lost temple area of the jedi academy v2 map or the "understairs" bit One such area will be Exar Kuns Krypt among others
I will to so far out of my way to make sure these are extremly hard to find to make it fun for egg hunters
If ther is anything people dont like about this please let me know. Thank you for youre attention. a.k.a Lord Rive (Darkside) a.k.a Raith Daggos (Lightside)  Laterz see ya on the servers. |

Thanks for th interest
First of all i have no intention of permanently replacing DOM's map, its simply there if the admin wishes to use it, however it will have a professional shine to it, i have no intention of releasing a map map that was created by an noob of the editor like me
I am doing pretty well architexture is nice and the design is ok, ther are just a few things i need to learn how to do like realistic outdoor lighting, cameras etc. I am having a few lighting issues right now as matter of fact. one of the outdoor textures is very brightly lit while the others are fine, dont know how to fix it but i will eventually. I have just finished the Main Entrance and Two of the class rooms, Saber class room and Force demonsration room. As i said before its LOOONG from finished but coming along nicely I'll post screenies on the site of the finished areas when its possable to. Right now its about 15% finished.

i think you dont need to do all of that just add easter eggs to the current map and redo the courtyar because everyone needs to get outside sometimes. _______________ "this is Icco. Icco is old.
