New Jedi Knight Multiplayer Level: ORJ Temple Tournament I -
File: ORJ Temple Tournament I
Author: ORJ_JoS
Screenshots: Screenshot 1, Screenshot 2
Description: This large multiplayer 'sabers only' level consists of 3 different lightsaber arenas and offers fun and exciting gameplay for different types of lightsaber duels. The arenas are situated in the volcanic temple of the Order of Reborn Jedi (ORJ). The level was designed to exploit the abilities of the Saber Battle X mod. It is playable with regular JK, but for optimal gameplay you'll have to use SBX.
There are 3 Arenas:
On one end of the spawning area is a doorway with an open curtain, flanked by two big tiles. This exit leads to the 'Battle Circle' arena, a classic saberdome.
On the other end of the spawning area is a doorway with a closed curtain, flanked by two statues. This doorway leads to the third and largest arena; the Chase Arena, which is made up of four large connected rooms, that run in a 'circle'; a deadly trajectory of dizzying heights, dangerous slopes, high and low grounds, tricky jumps and vast amounts of blistering-hot lava. There are four central observation rooms, and three smaller observation areas inside the arena. The action cams for this arena can be found on top of the wooden stands in the central observation rooms.
Switches around the level provide revives for the duellists, and teleports to quickly access or exit certain arenas. All spectating areas are equipped with camera consoles that enable the players to closely follow the action inside the arenas.
The two smaller arenas can be played with 'no Force' settings. However, in order to navigate the Chase Arena, you'll need some Force.
The screenshots don't do this level justice; they only show a small part. Please download it and try it out with some friends. As we found out in extensive beta-testing, this level should be unique in terms of gameplay, as well as watching the game.
The level works with the retail version of Jedi Knight - Dark Forces II. Limit removers are not needed. A more detailed description can be found in the readme.txt that is included in the zip.
