JK/MotS -- The Best of the Best

Well, I have 2 other friends who just got MotS/JK, so that makes for some great 4 player action since I have it, and another buddy does too. I'm trying to remember though, what are the 'greats' for JK/MotS? Here's what I have so far:

JK:
GotG:ME (my fav)
Rogue Squadron CTF (the mod I did [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif])
SBX 3.1
/levels
Ord Trassi
Massassi CTF Pack
Lord Of The Tower
DFA (Death From Above) level pack (JK levels redone in client/server setup)

MotS:
SBX 3.0
Leeza's Guns
/Levels
Anything by Ortheza


Let me know what ones would be great to put in a pack so the 4 of us can play. (Not something I'd release, but something for us) Please consider the following criteria we have:

-It's gotta look pretty
-It's gotta be smooth gameplay
-It's gotta be Star Wars themed
-It's gotta be for 4-8 players size-wise

Thanks all.

I used to believe that we must fight the future, lest change come without our consent. I was wrong. The truth is that we must embrace the future, for only with change can we remain the same.

Must it be star-wars themed?

I would suggest the 4 Massassi Packs and JK Arena.

And nice levels by Tee.

And for gameplay, levels by Flexor.

Drazen Isle and jkRPG. And Saber Battle X is pretty cool, too.

For MotS, my all time favorite levels are Beggars Canyon ('cause it's huuuugggeeee!) and 435 Headquarters... 'cause it's also pretty huge [http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif] and there's like little mini-quests for keys so you can access secret areas. I likes it.

I actually went and put AI in that Beggars Canyon level once and it was pretty cool... though I can't release it because I don't have the author's permission, and I don't plan on releasing it anyway so there. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif]

Dont forget the Stories Untold Level Pack. 3 sabers-only levels that are designed specifically to be used with STUN or SBX.

As a former TACCer, I always paid more attention to SP than multiplayer. Unfortunately, TACC appears to be dying slowly.

For JK, I have to recommend The siege of Derra IV for best SP map. The texturing is near perfect in that level, and no misalignments are to be found anywhere. The architecture is absolutely stunning, its what JK level 6 should have been.

For MOTS, I have to give the award to Birth of a Mercenary SE.

Unfortunately, none of these are SW-themed except for Big Nar and some of JKArena (PWP2 comes close), so your criteria are not entirely reached.

Mods I like:
  • Saber Battle X (even v.2 is great)
  • Power Weapons Pack 2
  • Goldeneye
  • SSR4000 Pro
  • Fatal Resistance (latest version = 9.7) (it was formerly known as Space Soldiers 3, which was mentioned)
  • Explosive Weapons Pack
  • Ultimate weapons Pack 4 (not as nice sounds as I would like, but gameplay is pretty good -- also DO NOT zoom with the Falcon, lest you want to risk crashing JK)


Levels I like:
Next to Flexor's [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif],
  • Goldeneye Facility (the one by Wolfenstein)
  • Big Nar Shaddaa
  • JKArena
  • Caesar's Palace


Can't think of any more at the moment.
Also, I don't play MotS MP anymore -- only SP. But I did like Dual Blastechs and SBX 3.0.

That mod always felt so 'unfinished'.

I forgot one mod that will always go down in history for me: Infiltrate! I remember the day that came out. It was soooooooo awesome. Too bad JK doesn't really support 8+ players on 56k. The mod never caught on because of that.

Also, in thinking of a few others, I really overlooked these:

-Domination! (forget who did it for JK, but the coding was exceptional - this mod could use some levels for it lol) I think I may break out JED again and compile a domination level pack of 10+ levels. I'll have to check out the best SW themed levels, and then put them together after permission. I'm too rusty to start from scratch.
-Detention Center (JK's Jailbreak) This mod was just plain cool, but again, the coder/author was not the best level editor, and so it never caught on. This mod would be close to #1 in my book if new levels were made for it. (hint hint)

-Best MotS level: Rebel Agent. Rebel Agent > all others. Replaying the 1st Dark Forces level with additions, 16-bit MATs (a few), a new ST rifle. You just can't go wrong. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif]

Infiltrate, Domination, and Detention Center were all great. I'm suprised to see someone who actually remembers Detention Center. Despite the ugly maps, it still remains one of my favorites.

My favorite maps to play with Manowar 2 would have to be Manowar CTF and Hangar 217. Manowar 2 is one of the few mods that I can tolerate.

My recommendations:

Dengar 5: http://www.massassi.net/levels/files/973.shtml
Four Pillars: http://www.massassi.net/levels/files/381.shtml
Hangar 217: http://www.jediknight.net/jkmag/levels/dm_hg217.zip

USP: http://www.jediknight.net/jkmag/usp.html
UGP: http://www.jediknight.net/jkmag/ugp.html

I could go on and on, but Sliders is coming on so the madness must end. I believe you used to be a part of JKMAG so I'm sure you'll remember quite a few of these. I'll have to try Rogue Squadron CTF again, it's been years since I've played that.

Jedi Ball
Shadow's Keep

Merc Waterfall

bunch of other levels I liked: Pirate Ship, The Barn, and The Complex from the 007 pack

nother half dozen levels I used to play ages ago, but none of them are graphical wonders. don't think most of them are hosted at massassi either.
2004-04-19, 11:31 AM #27
MotS SP:
Rebel Agent
Birth of a Mercenary SE
Liberating Cloud City

Each of them are very good levels and I highly reccomend them.

For JK MP, don't forget:

Blue Rain
Empire Night Club (doesn't look like much, but is quite fun)
Catwalkz (again, not fancy, but simply a lot of fun)
Morpheus (may have been mentioned already; a must-have)
Hoth Wars/SubZero-series maps (used to be hard on framerate, but shouldn't be a problem with modern PCs)
Ji Oasis (the king of the Oasis mods)
Mirrored Oasis (a simple mirror of the original by yours truly; it's more interesting than you might think)
Big Oasis 2 (the other king of the Oasis mods; unique and a lot of fun, good for larger games)
JHS (well duh)
Jedi Ball (FUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNN!!!!!!)

Those are the standouts in my episode folders that I can think of that haven't been mentioned too much.
