My review of the beta version of this file:
Ever get tired of playing against the same bots or NPC's? Want to create your own, but you don't know how? Do I sound like an infomercial at like, 3 am? Yeah, well ... This is a very cool little program that takes you through each step in creating your own NPC. You name it, choose your player model, pick the default skin or one of the team versions, decide the NPC's size, pick the weapons that the NPC will favor, their saber color (can be custom too), their saber style, saber length, whether they use the alternate fire or not, force powers, their max force power, their regen rate, their behaviour and a ton of other things. I mean, you completely customize this NPC and it's so easy! You just click a box or move a slider over.
This program is still in its beta stage, so the author has asked that everyone who does download this and use it, to offer feedback. Let them know about any bugs, or any improvements you can think of. It seems to me that they've thought of everything for the easy creation of NPC's for this program, but you guys might find areas where they could improve. So be sure to read the readme so you'll know where to send your bug reports and suggestions. Great work guys!
This update may have changes, but there was no list of changes included, so I have no idea what to tell you guys. :) It doesn't look much different to me at all. In any case, I was impressed with the work that was put into this tool. Good work here. :)

NPC Tool v1.0.0.116
for
Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy
=================================================
© 2004 by Kal El and Leslie Judge
Q: What is this?
A: It's a GUI based tool for creating and editing
NPC's for use in Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi
Academy. It has pk3 support, checks for errors
and has template features. Check the help file
for more detailed information on the program's
features.
Q: Why should I use this? Isn't creating NPC's
easy?
A: It might be easy for you, but not everyone is
as talented as you ;). Even Raven made some
mistakes in their NPC files. This tool should
make it even easier and stop you from making
any mistakes.
Q: How do I install it?
A: Unpack the NPCtool directory anywhere you want
and doubleclick NPCTool.exe to start the
program. The tool will ask you to specify the
location of the Jedi Academy base directory.
If you don't have Jedi Academy installed, you
can't run the program.
Q: How can I use it?
A: Once the program is running press F1 or select
Help from the Help menu.
