The featured skin pack over on Jedi Knight Files is Omega Squad for Jedi Academy.Well, for the most part they aren't much like the original Delta pack, since that one had diversity, and different color schemes and patterns for each skin. No, this is not the case with our Omega Squad. Here we have four reskins of the model, each looking almost the same as its predecessor, save for the varying colors and occasional addons like ammo containers etc. Check out the Omega Squad.

Over on Jedi Knight Files you can check out a multiplayer map for Jedi Outcast that goes by the name of Old Yavin Duel that is designed by KniGht|RidEr.Here we have a small duel/FFA map base on a Yavin theme. Personally the map itself doesn't seem all the Yavin-y besides the skybox... but that Yavin skybox will make anything seem like Yavin! In any case, it's something of a layered platform (a low part, a high part, and 'tiers' in between acting as steps) which reminds me of a flattened-out ziggurat. Take a peek at that Old Yavin Duel level.

Lt. Cmdr. Salinga released a deathmatch level for Elite Force that's called Sedona. The map is a conversion of a Quake III: Arena level originally made by redfella.The atmosphere of this map is that of a mining facility, so it is no surprise that it is a little on the dark side...although, cramped, it is not; This map is very roomy, and depending on the number of players in this map, you may have to do some running about within the confines of Sedona to find yourself a target to shoot at. Go downgrab Sedona over on Elite Force Files.

The featured model on Jedi Knight Files is one that is called Odin and is designed by Almighty_gir for Jedi Academy.Here we've got another Final Fantasy model for the FF fanboys and fangirls out there (myself included). This particular model is Odin as seen in Final Fantasy VIII. The model, which dates back to September 2005 (whoo boy, an oldie!) certainly does look like Odin, and is actually quite beautiful in its own right. It does, however, show some particular errors and weak points (such as the shape of the feet and the shape of the fae) which are very typical of Almighty Gir's early work, which he has since drastically improved upon. Check out Odin.

The featured skin over on Jedi Knight Files is LOEB which was released by Leonardo De Simone.I'm not sure where the name came from for this skin, but it's certainly a neat skin. It's a reskin of the snowtrooper to make him a knight, and the author seems to have done a pretty good job with it! Enough has been changed so that it's recognizable, but definitely doesn't look like the snowtrooper anymore. The breast plate has been completely changed, and the head has been given some chain mail to protect the neck area. Check out LOEB!

lil_binger released a Jedi Academy, multiplayer map that goes by the title Bespin Traps and according to the reviewer you should play the level with the Hydroball mod.Anyway, I thought the name of this map was silly when I first saw it. I thought to myself "Bespin traps? Bepin trap would sound so much better." I now understand the S on the end. Very simply, there are traps in this map, and if you're clever you can uncover them and hopefully trick your opponents into killing themselves. Handy, eh? Take a look at that map over on Jedi Knight Files.

skymarshall posted a thread on our Newdoom forums right here that he turned jHexen into more of a diablo-style RPG.I had a bit of spare time over christmas so decided to turn jHexen into more of a diablo-style RPG game with experience, level-ups and more importantly weapons that get visibly better as you play. Yes, this is a pretty tragic waste of time, but this is my first attempt at C coding outside of work and I'm pretty happy with the results. You can grab the download from a link in his first post, plus you can view several screenshots. Thanks to Phoebus for pointing this out.

Rock released a Jedi Academy, multiplayer map called HydroDesert2 and according to the reviewer you should play the level with the Hydroball mod.This map actually has a really nice ambiance. It is set in what seems to be a town in the middle of the desert (Tatooine, anyone?) in the middle of the night. The lighting actually matches the time of day, which is nice. And it's not excessive or too little. There were a couple of instances, mainly inside the hydroball building itself, where I couldn't find a light source for a couple of the light entities, but for the most part the lights did have sources. Investigate that level over on Jedi Knight Files.

Lt. Cmdr. Salinga uploaded Sedona to Elite Force Files. The map designed for Elite Force deathmatch and is designed after a Quake III Arena level.This map, originally crafted by redfella, and made available to you by Lt. Cmdr. Salinga, after he converted it from it's original 'Quake 3 Arena' state, is a rather large map that contains three levels of frag fest-ness fun! The atmosphere of this map is that of a mining facility, so it is no surprise that it is a little on the dark side...although, cramped, it is not; This map is very roomy, and depending on the number of players in this map, you may have to do some running about within the confines of Sedona to find yourself a target to shoot at. Go get a copy of Sedona.

Here is anouther saber hilt mod for Jedi Academy. This particular mod is made by Donut595 and is called Dragon's Claw Hilt Pack.I like new and innovative hilts. This certainly isn't the first dragon-themed hilt to grace the net, but it's not a copy of anything, either. I've always found dragons inspiring, both for myself and obviously for other people, as the concept of these creatures has spawned some of the most unique and interest mod pieces available. This is no exception. Get that mod off of Jedi Knight Files.

I got that Kyle was crazy, Jaden was confused, and there was a mad rancor on the loose and some guy who shouted, no less than three times, "THE RANCOR!" The RANCOR!

Qiutian released his Mandalorian Fortress over on Jedi Knight Files. The map is made for multiplayer and features new music and sounds.Mandalorian fans will like this map, which is meant to be some kind of Mandalorian base on the planet Mandalore. The area where the map sits initially reminded me a little bit of Dxun, for those who have played KotOR2. Perhaps this is where this author gained some of his inspiration. In any case, I'll agree that the map looking very much Mandalorian in style. It includes what I suspect to be a dueling ring, surrounded by spikes, and a simple platform in the middle of a large chasm. Take a look at that Mandalorian Fortress.
