Doing an April Fool next year will be tricky, as everyone will remember last years'. Maybe we could change the date :p

Say you're scrapping the idea of the original mod and fill it up with loads of Mysteries of the Pimp shots :p

as for including mysteries of the sith...

i think that would be a ver neat and decent idea!!!

But please don't put mara jade in those silly clothes she wore in the game. i think it would look much cooler the way she looks in the comics paintet by carlos ezquera.

For reference pics look here:

http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/rjavery/jade4.jpg)

I think camaron small got her face pretty well in his cg image you see here:

http://www.cswu.cz/3dimages/page002/mara_jade.jpg)

Anyway, I think a mara model based on those pics would rule...

If someone like hap or anybody else would decide on doing a model based on those pics i'd be more than happy : )

please tell me what you guys think about it

See ya

I like this model of Mara Jade (made for Jedi Outcast):

http://www.jediknightii.net/files/index.php?link=file&id=1091)

What do you think? But in the books of Timothy Zahn Mara is wearing a holster for her special compact laser pistol on her arm. That would be a nice enhancement for this model.

Yeah it looks pretty good.

Almost the same as the girl in the actual game.

My only problem is that the mara jade from the game doesn't look like the mara jade from the books at all and so i think it would be nice to have a >>timothy zahn style<< mara jade ; )

I might be the only one though...

That's ironic seeing as we all saw Jade a different way :p

I had seen MotS in the stores back in '98 and she's on the cover of the box (same art that's on the disK). THAT is how I've always seen Mara, and that's how I always will for that time era. She wasn't a Jedi, she was a smuggler. Those are some pretty nice clothes for a female as a smuggler; not some tight jumosuit she wore as the Emperor's Hand like the pictures you show.

But, I didn't say Mysteries of the Sith, I said Mysteries of the Pimp as some sorta April Fool's joke and although expected, it'd be funny as all hell to see an entire mod site on it :D

Someone will eventually give MotS a whirl, I am sure, but these 2 projects take a long enough time as it is and the team always gets a revamp and the future at times looks grim. Let another team tackle MotS and let these 2 be ;)

i think mots cousl be pulled off once both mods are done cos the amount of stuff both teams would have would cover alot of mots but that would just be burn out for everyone my self i think once DF2E is done im gonna take along break from mapping

I really hope that there will be a mod for Mysteries of the Sith, too. I liked this Add On more than the original game. But first of all the Jedi Knight Mod has to be released. Does anyone know when we may expect to see something on the Jedi Knight Enhanced homepage, or perhaps a demo?

For JO/ JA or MotS? There is one on MotS and it was one hell of a cool mod. That and Birth/ Tales of a Merc were extraordinary works of art.

hmm it seems there's only little chance for an mysteries of the sith mod left...

Despite of the mod I'd really like to see a Mara Jade - Timothy Zahn Style - Model anyway.

Maybe also inclueding her arm holster for her laser pistol...

So if there's any modeller left who'd be willing to create a Mara Jade model that would be really cool!!! : )

Anyway I'm really looking forward for the DFI and DFII mods.

Keep up the GREAT work!!!!

The thing is, people interpet descriptions differently then other people, so if someone made a Mara Jade model based on a description from the books, it might not end up looking like what you yourself thought based on the same description...

"The adventures of Mara Jade" or something like that mod was for Jo. I found out about it more than a year ago but I don't remember the site. All I remember is that it was a German site with no English version, it had a link to the "Tales of Mace Windu" mod again for Jo, no idea what happened to that mod either, and there were models of Mara Jade, Vader, Palpatine, Crix Madine, some rebel officer/general or whatever and some rebel girl with orange/blond hair.

Tales of Mace Windu looked awesome. It was being done by the guy who did Birth of a Merc Trilogy and the sequel series, Tales of a Merc. Anthony something, I forget the author's name.... He never finished the Tales series; I'd rather have had that then Mace Windu :)

...And why hasnt Raven given Hapslash a job yet? He makes better models then they do! The updated stormtrooper looks good, but that sand trooper looks utterly sweet.

Sweet, at least we get to see something before the site is up. The Yun map is looking great, though thats probably easier to make since it is only one room... Cant wait till this mod, or at least part of it, is released.

Are you going to remake the multiplayer maps too? Playing some classic Jedi Knight multiplayer with the Quake 3 engine will be cool.
