OK guys,
Movie Battles II is coming to Jedi
Knight Academy. The full version won't
be ready till the summer (at least) -
but we are currently working on a
fully playable MP demo which we
aim to have released by the end
of Febuary.
To give you a taster, here are
screenies from the MBII forums:

...I'm looking for beta testers to help
me get the demo bug-free and the
classes perfectly balanced.
The classes which we will have ready
for the demo are:
* Soldier (3 lives)
* Hero (Dodge, health regen, thermals)
* Mandalorian (Jetpack + rocket, Dual
pistols, flamethrower)
* Jedi / Sith (Lightsaber & force powers)
* Wookie (Bowcaster - modified from
base JKA, strong melee attacks, lots of health)
* Droideka (Very strong shields whilst
standing, massive firepower, rolling)
The demo will also feature maps
specially designed for MB gameplay.
The current map list for the demo:
* Cloud City - by [CLU]Nathan
* Jabba's Palace - by LivingDeadJedi
Both these maps will be Siege-based -
but specifically tailored for LMS
(Last Man Standing - no re-spawn)
gameplay.
Other features which will be included
for the demo:
* Buy system - allowing round-to-round
character progression - including buying
new weapons.
* 'Authentic' and 'Open' modes. Authentic
mode will limit gameplay in certain ways in
order to accurately re-create a particular
scene (sometimes directly from a movie,
sometimes on a non-movie senario).
Open will be - as the name implies -
more open...
* Modified saber system (most of the
difficult stuff coded by RazorAce)
This mod will be based off OJP code.
(Check my sig for details of the OJP)
If you are interested in helping me
beta-test, please write me an e-mail at renegadeofphunk@3dactionplanet.com.
Beta testing will start in the middle
of the month. (Feb) I will have 2 dedicated
servers avaliable - one in North America,
and the other in Europe. So when you
write to me, please tell me which location
you are living in (or nearest to...).
I will have about 14 slots open on
either server. In most cases, it is first
come, first served. (Unless there is a
good reason any paricular applicant
should be included over others...)
You are only on the beta testing
team IF I reply to you .via e-mail.
If I don't reply, then you can assume
there were no places left avaliable.
Thx,
Renegade
