New JK Multiplayer Level: The Dark Ages - Brian
File: The Dark Ages
Author: Jepman
Screenshots: Screenshot 1, Screenshot 2
Description: A fort designed for intense sabering. Originally titled Shadow's Courtyard, but was renamed because of a possibilty of confusion with the already existing level, "Shadow's Keep." This level plays best with 2 to 4 players. Supports over 6. To get healed, go in the center of the ground cross and jump, let yourself hover until your full, but watch not to get out of the thrust while hovering high or you'll get hurt on the way down.
New JK Multiplayer Level: Fireball's Pack - Brian
File: Fireball's Pack
Author: VCchfireball
Screenshots: Screenshot 1, Screenshot 2
Description: This is 2 level pack. The first one, PowerstationXE, is a fast level for 2 or more players! Not many traps; good for guns & snipers. The level is set in part of a ship that generates power for other ships. The second one, Westworld, is "loosely" based on the movie of the same name. If you have seen the movie, and can find the secret, then you will see why it's Westworld. This level is about 6 months old, but I never released it.
Staff Email Attachments - Brian
I'm going to mention this again. DO NOT SEND ATTACHMENTS TO THE STAFF EMAIL ADDRESS! If you have sent an email with an attachment lately (as in, within the last couple of weeks), WE DID NOT GET IT. The mailing list software won't handle attachments anymore, so the only way to get one to us is to email the staff account saying you'd LIKE to send an attachment, and we'll give you an email address to send it to (one of our personal accounts).
Etc. - Brian
Well, E3 is fast approaching. Can't wait to go. What else? The Vampire Betas have shipped, and if the slip in my mailbox is any indication, mine arrived! That's right, yours truly is on the beta team, which means I get to test a pre-release version of Vampire: The Masquerade - Redemption. Vampire is the first game by developing house Nihilistic Software. Many of the people at Nihilistic used to work at Lucasarts, and are responsible for such games as Dark Forces and Jedi Knight. So if you're not up to date on this killer game (which Kiramin and I got to check out at the last E3), check out another site I work at, PlanetVampire.
Millennium News - Brian
Millennium, our hosted cog site, has posted some new screenshots of Hideki's killer (literally) knife 3do. Stop by and check it out.

New JK MOD: DaSpawn Skin - Kedri
File: DaSpawn Skin
Author: _Wild_Karrde_
Screenshots: Screenshot 1, Screenshot 2
Description: I thought the original Spawn skin was okay, but a little out-dated and half-hearted (the arms and legs were from the Dark Kyle model). So I decided to update and improve it. Look for more upcoming skins and levels from me.
New JK Multiplayer Level: Pogue Mahone - Kedri
File: Pogue Mahone
Author: Ryan Cannaday/ Srv_Ryan
Screenshots: Screenshot 1, Screenshot 2
Description: This is a great multiplayer gun level for JK. It is an abandoned water plant that feeds water down a river to a nearby town. The workers who used to work there had an apartment that was full of weapons, and they got exposed to a mildew and died, SO BE CAREFUL!

Description: This is a small multiplayer level set in a small building in the sky. There is very little lag, and action is fast-paced. I recommend up to four players on this level.
Errata - Kedri
Alright, I've just finished taking down a couple of submissions we've posted in recent days. The most recent of the two was PotM Oasis 2 by Baal_PotM, which implemented Raynar's AI "Rbots" in one of its levels without so much as a tip of the hat to the guy. The other was posted a couple weeks ago, SFT 1.5 by Shogo_Tenchi, which used ship models from X-Wing Alliance, a blatant violation of the LEC EULA. Even though it's been up for a while already, that doesn't mean it's condoned around here.

I hate having to take levels down for these kinds of reasons, mainly because it could all be avoided so simply. For PotM Oasis 2, all Baal_PotM had to do was ask Raynar for permission to use his bots and include him in the credits. For SFT 1.5, Shogo_Tenchi could've easily used 3DOs readily available either here or at several other JK editing sites, again, with proper credit given in the readme. I hope any other authors out there reading this that are contemplating this sort of thing please reconsider. People do notice what's going on, and it doesn't do a thing to enhance your reputation among other authors and players. Thanks for listening.

File: US Meeting Level v3.0
Author: US_Palpatine (Jon Bergen)
Screenshots: Screenshot 1, Screenshot 2
Description: A very small level made originally for the Ultra Saberists to hold meetings and chat. This level is an original idea (I believe): a level specifically for talking! Even though this level was made for peaceful purposes, it serves as a fantastic saber ground.

The skin is from SavageX so don't E-mail me for the skins. Check out SavageX's Command Center.
