Wow, ok, people who have played JK2 will recognise this map…It is one of the duel maps from the MP side of the game. And no, it isn’t ported! I know it may look like it on first glance, but this map really isn’t ported from JK2, Darth Norman has built it from scratch! This is a really superb recreation of the original JK2 map.
All the little details are here, like the steam coming up off the pipes, and even the pipes on the ceiling. However, there have been a few improvements. There are 2 switches in this map, one switches the white lights on and off (perfect if you want the map to have a more heavy atmosphere…just turn the lights off!) and one switch that raises and lowers the carbonite block in the chamber. That is probably not much use while your in a duel, but its still adds a nice touch to the map! :)
There’s not really much else I can say about this map as it is only a small duel map. There weren’t any bugs that I could see, so all in all another very nice professional quality map from Darth Norman here!
If you liked the JK2 version of the map, then I’m sure you will love this! ;)

So all credits go to Raven Software, who developed this map. To achieve this I first rebuild it just from seeing old duel_carbon and not copying any material out of the .map. After that I made the lightning which was terrible in the original :P the map also supports the glow effect. Next thing was the interactivity and u know in Arevass there wasn't much of this so I decided to put something in here: 1st there is the carbon grapper that can be lift up 2nd u can switch some of the lights on/off and 3rd you can blow up many things. I know thats not too much but maybe it makes fun and gives the map more realism. OK that should be enough :) -------------------------------------------------- Installation -------------------------------------------------- put the .pk3 file into your 'JediKnight:JediAcademy/GameData/base' folder I hope you will enjoy it!:) » Darth NormaN ...and btw: turn glow effect on ('r_dynamicGlow 1'), it looks so pretty ;) -------------------------------------------------- SPECIAL THANKS TO - FOR -------------------------------------------------- » Illusions Tec - Team - support » George Lucas - creating Star Wars » John Williams - composing this great music » Lucas Arts,Raven,Activision - making such great games like JK:JA and duel_carbon » all who are responsible - the creation of the great software i used (GTK Radiant 1.4(+Tools), Q3map2, EasyGen...) » all members of these forums - support and advise » www.illusions-tec.de » www.darth-arth.de » www.sjcleveldesign.com » www.map-review.com » my family - support (not disturbing me while mapping xD) Thanks to all of you. -------------------------------------------------- Addition -------------------------------------------------- We (my testers and me) tested this map on a clear version of JKA (v1.0.1, without bonus mappack).
