Site/Server problems? -DJ Sith- May 08 09:02pm -16 comments-
It looks like our hosting providor is going through fits. Our apologies for the downtime.

All quiet on the western front? -Silent Whisper- May 08 04:41am -19 comments-
I'm going to make this brief, I'm bored. I want to let those here old and new what it is that I do. I keep the peace. If people are laming on the servers, screenshot and/or demo them and email it to me. I'm here for your protection and to make your stay at the Jedi Academy a peaceful and friendly one. So if you're having a problem with a student, knight, or trainer, don't hesitate to contact me. I'm here for you. :D


-Your friendly neighborhood Enforcer.

Raise your sabers high for our newest Knight: Kalheka! Kal performed admirably during his trial. Give him a pat on the back next time you see him on the servers. Make sure you have those sabers turned off first please. :)

Masters and Padawans -Loaf- May 07 06:31pm -8 comments-
Browsing through the forums, I've seen alot of people trying to take advantage of places of interest such as the JK: Jedi Academy forum to get a master. There is a place for these posts:

Looking For a Master?
Looking For a Padawan?

Please confine any requests to there. Theres a time and a place for posts like those, well, maybe not a time...:P

A quick update on JAC matters -doobie- May 05 06:50pm -49 comments-
Those of you who pay attention to such things have noticed that things have been a little tense around here lately, with some well-known people getting into a little trouble. I would just like to take a moment to remind people that, in order to be a member of the Jedi Academy, you must at all times treat others with respect. Those of you who do not will be punished.

Also, the actions of the Council are done with reason, not, as some of you may be assuming, rashly. We actually are more lenient that a lot of you realize (some would say too lenient) and we allow a lot of people to get away with too much sometimes.

Also, this is a reminder to those of you of you who have been previously banned and are back in on the "1.999 warnings" condition... we weren't kidding about that, and there isn't a time frame for that condition to go away. So remember to be nice at all time and respect the rules and RESPECT EACH OTHER (this goes for everyone as well)

Remember, it's just a game that we all play to have fun....

------------ UPDATE ----------------------------
I would like to announce that our Knight, Chicka has made herself a prominent member of this Academy, and as of today has achieved the rank of Jedi Instructor!

Congrats Chicka!

Version 4 of The Jedi Academy Released! -=Derelict-Crusader=- May 02 08:13pm -50 comments-
No big speeches, just a run down of what has been changed:

- Glass room has been redesigned to make way for more dueling room, the design is much like the "matrix room" but with a twist. (Old concept from the very first Beta of the JA map.)

- The "Pillar room" has YET AGAIN been redesigned. The lighting in the room is very dim and should make for some very cool saber duels!

- A special area has been added for the JAC and JAT. It can only be reached with the use of teleportation powers through the use of "The Jedi Academy Mod

- The "Pit" or "Plank" room has been slightly modified. Walk-on access has been added and Duel staging lines have also been added. Water received some tweaking too.

- Council room spawn points have been changed in order to prevent player interference.
- 2 more spawn points have been added between the old 2 spawning areas.

- All the buggy area-portals have been fixed. What this means is that the frames are solid everywhere you go!

- A whole new bot-route; the most comprehensive route for the JA yet! (Desann did a lot of running during testing)

- Door closing speeds have been changed in order to preserve FPS, this ties in with “area portals.”

- A lot of other minor level tweaks and details have been done.

- All the observation decks received an extra Shield and Bacta Canister.



Enjoy the latest version!

Jedi Academy Version 4 Input -=Derelict-Crusader=- May 01 08:57pm -68 comments-
Version 4 of The Jedi Academy map is nearing release and at the last minute I’ve made quite a few changes. I come asking an important question, it’s regarding the “glass room” AKA “Trail room.” I would like to know how often this room is used as it was meant for trials and such.

I feel that this room needs a change; in its place I could do a “matrix” like design or if some recall the “3 platform” design from Version 1 in order to open it up for more duel space.

Please post your comments/votes to keep the “glass room” as is or revamp it. Stay on topic here, it will make it easier for me and eventually mean a quicker release of V4.

Thanks
