jk2files.com has rgoer's Docking Tower Seven uploaded and here is what the reviewer says about it in the description:Well, when I get a map that was submitted in a duel map contest, I know I'm about to review a great map. I don't know what place rgoer got, but it had to be at least one of the top 5. Those of you who've been in the JK community for a while and try out different maps all the time must remember Chapel of the Ysalamiri. That was rgoer's first map, I believe. And he did an amazing job with that. There's also three cool looking screenshots to check out before you download this Jedi Academy map that was a part of the duel map contest.

Once more I was lurking around and noticed on jk2files.com anouther female Jedi skin for Jedi Academy. I sneaked this bit of text from the description:There's so much that I love about this skin. Yes, she still looks like Jan. But there are so many details that change her and the story in the readme helps too. Though, I would've preferred to have seen this skin on the Leela model - mainly because Leela has better features and she doesn't have that glove. Speaking of glove though, I really like that red arm/wrist glove thing. I have no idea what to call it. But it's quite lovely So if you need a fem skin for Jedi Academy then maybe Darth Jia-rhaz - Jedi Huntress is worth downloading.

Over on Elite Force Files they have a new CTF level up for downloading called CTF Tetra for Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force. From the description of the map I gathered this quote:CTF Tetra is a small map that should deliver some extremely fast and furious multiplayer action. I say multiplayer because sadly there is no bot support, but it will be added in a new version of the map as the readme states. At first look, the map looks much like a voy map, however Ruteger decided to be inventive and give the map his own unique architecture. So anyhow here it is if you want to check out that CTF map.

I was poking around and noticed on jk2files.com a new female Jedi skin for Jedi Academy. While nobody was looking I ripped this bit of text from the description:Ziechel brings us Jedi Natalie, his second skin. Basically, it's the default Twi'lek model, but has been reskinned to look like a human. A pretty ambitious idea for one's second skin, if you ask me. But, he's done a good job of it. The skin tones are right, the face seems right, and the shading is good. So if you need a decent fem skin for Jedi Academy then maybe Jedi Natalie is worth downloading.

Anyways, go check out that Celestial Temple if your into the Elite Force gaming.

Forsaken Monument For Jedi Academy

Category: Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy |
Noticed on jk2files.com a newish Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy Free For All map called Forsaken Monument. Here is a bit from the readme: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. Check out the map right here and view the six screenshots that are available.

They announced on the EliteForce.com site that the Starfleet Tournament Mod for Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force is available on the Elite Farce site.Starfleet Tournament is an intramural competition held yearly by Starfleet. Each starship in the fleet is represented by a team composed of the most athletic and physically fit members of its crew, and each Federation member planet is represented by the most valuable players of each race. Only hitch is actually finding this elusive mod on the Elite Farce site. I found a bunch of comics and a lot of crazy-cool skins but where the hell is the mod? Well if anybody finds it let me know with an email. Meanwhile get some of those skins and check out the comics. [Edit] Thanks to Chamalkan for pointing out where that Starfleet Tournament page was hidden.
