Cade Skywalker is a skin pack for Jedi Academy that was designed by BeakerBongload.Unless you have read some of the Star Wars Legacy comics by Dark Horse, you probably wont know who Cade Skywalker is. I don’t really want to spoil the story for anyone who hasn’t read these great comics, so I wont say too much. That file is available thanks to Jedi Knight Files.

Over on Planetquake they put up Poprocks as the level of the week and here is a bit of what Pappy-R has to say about the map, which by the way is for Quake 4, multiplayer.The action is fast and the weapons stay hot in tourney play on this one and in a bit of a twist, there's a Quad in the level. It's not something I've been seeing a lot of and it always reminds me of old school 1 on 1's, so it was kind of a nice bonus on this one. Check out some Poprocks.

RGB Rodian is a skin for Jedi Academy that lodaleemur released.Basically what's been done here is that the rodian model has been given the power to have its colors changed via the console commands. So, you simply type in 'char_color_(red, green or blue)' and a number and whammo! your rodian's clothes change colors. You can grab that skin off of Jedi Knight Files.

phonock released a reborn reskin for Jedi Academy that he calls Vapthes. Here is a bit of what the reviewer had to say about it:Your average evil sith-like guy, you know the story. It looks sort of like a cross between Jason Voorhees and a knight. You've got your mandatory nearly black clothing (although this has a slight red tinge to it) and then you have the cuirass. The cuirass is nearly my favorite part of it, it just looks that good. Although one thing I noticed is that the highlights are too sharp. You can get that skin off ofJedi Knight Files.

Apparently SiLink did up a Chuck Norris skin for Jedi Academy. Now, this skin is based on Major Clod's Indiana Jones, which one would've thought wouldn't be a perfect template for the Chuckster given that it looks like Harrison Ford. One would've been spectacularly wrong. Grab Chuck off of Jedi Knight Files.

Quake 4 Reborn (V1) is one of those face-lift mods that was created by Slayer_2.After completing the Quake 4 Weapons Realism mods, I decided to move on to a whole new mod, with (hopefully) less problems and better features. Basically, this mod gives Quake 4 a nice, and in my opinion, much needed face lift. Check out the Readme to see the full list of features and more. Hit the Quake 4 Reborn (V1) page on Quake 4 Files for more info on the mod.

Sparta_89 put out some Battlestar Galactica Ranks and Classes for RPG-X2 (1.0).What this will do is add the ability for players to pick a class and rank, based upon those seen on Colonial Fleet officers, from the new Battlestar Galactica show.

The Cult of Darkness was updated to version 3.4 and is a skin pack for Jedi Academy.Most of the glows have, thankfully, now been either toned down or taken off, giving the skins more of a realistic edge to them. Except for Alora, who got smacked with the nanotechnology hammer. She's lit up like a Las Vegas casino. Grab that pack off of Jedi Knight Files.

HapSlash is back with the release of a model for a Improved Imperial Officer (1.0).This model is basically a revamp of the bland Raven imperial model, remodelling it to give not only a better structural look, but also adding small little details such as the badge insignias. After all, last I checked, humans tend to have more than one rank in their system =_= I just rate them all as humans and dispensable all the same. On further reading the file in question isn't exactly a new release but is new to Jedi Knight Files and I don't remember mentioning it here before. Whatever... I'm off for coffee and Family Guy. *disappears in a puff of smoke*

phonock released this Symbiote Spider-Man skin for Jedi Academy.As far as I can see, the patterning and overall design is perfectly accurate to Spider-Man 3. The term "as far as I can see" is used because unfortunately, the textures are rather darkened. A little extra brightness and/or contrast would be good for a future version, so that the detail is more apparent as per the movie. That skin is available thanks to Jedi Knight Files.

Category: Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy |
If you ever wanted to tweak the teleporter effects in Jedi Academy then have a look at this mod --> Star Trek: The Next Generation transporter FX (1.0) that was released by Lord of the Duct Tape.So, while this mini-mod may be perfect for a Star Trek fan, it's recommended for anyone simply because of it removing the awful (and sometimes headache-inducing) teleport/connect/disconnect effect used in baseJA and replacing it with something visually pleasing and functional. Be warned, however, that scoring over 1500 particles (sweet mother of Iny Fudge!) it's not jackin' around - chances are it will cause some slowdown, 'specially on older/weaker rigs or if many instances of the .efx file are playing at once. That mod is available on Jedi Knight Files.

If you ever wanted a Crystalforged War Axe from WoW to wack Jedi upside the head with, then now is a good time to get one.So we've got us an axe. A blue axe... with a rather strange design, but then again that's WoW for you. I like the model, personally -- it's low on the poly side and doesn't use any more detail that it needs to. Of course the blade vertices aren't welded together so it doesn't look very sharp, but maybe that was on purpose. That axe dealie is on Jedi Knight Files.

When I saw the name Hairball Chiss I was wondering WTF is that? Then I clicked on the link and..... I fuggen lol'd. That skin is so ugly there's no way it can't be a joke.... then again you never know...(but yeah it is indeed a joke).Seriously, it looks like a leopard ate MS Paint and threw up and died on this skin, after which a baby came and drew all over head. That skin is on Jedi Knight Files and it may be worth using just to get a laugh.
