Team Epic, an active Jedi Knight editing group, has sent some interesting information about their current projects:

Hi, I’m a spokesperson for ‘Team Epic,’ A Jedi Knight: Dark Forces editing group. You can check us out over at http://www.jedinights.com/e21tc. Here’s a preview of some of our mods.

Epic: Episode I Total Conversion-
Yep, a total conversion. You know you’ve heard this name in the past, and heard it fail in the past as well. We plan to get over that obstacle. This mod will contain the entire story of Episode 1 from the council room, all of the way to the parade. We’ve got a brand new saber system nearly finished, and we also plan on allowing the player to pilot the Naboo Starfighter, the Gungan Submarine, and Anikin’s Podracer.

Epic: Podracing Multiplayer & Single Player Partial Conversion-
A much smaller mod, as we’re including the choice of over 13 podracers with specific strengths and weaknesses for each racer. We also plan on support for multiplayer bots, and SP bots. The physics of the podracing is correctly tuned to fit the show.

Epic: Starbattles Partial Conversion-
Once again, a smaller mod. This time, you play through all of the multiple starbattles featured in the movies. All of the way from the Naboo battle up to the last battle. We’ve got it all.

Now, I know that that seems like a lot, but each one plays off of each other. Both of the PC’s cogging is embedded in the TC’s. We’d love your support, and any assistance we can gain from you.

I’d also like to point out a few very special people. Snookey, for developing the wonderful website, Blokemon for being the only texture artist we could get our hands on, and finally Decent Pilot for being such an amazing cogger.

Also, you guys should stop off at our mIRC channel at the server irc.holonet.org #Epic_Mods.
