Wow, this looks amazing. I meant to post sooner but I saw that droid arena and knew the perfect droid to go in there. Problem was that droid was in JK2 and isn’t on Wookiepedia, so I had take the screenshot myself. My Diagnosis(there isn't anything wrong, just what I think would be cool.)

Maybe make the swimming pool outside, it's just that inside, right now, it looks a little bland. If you still wanted it inside, you could add really big windows.(with beautiful view of course)
Maybe add a hot tub, if you have time a hot tub would help people "unwind" and it be cool.
Maybe move the tables closer, to those Twi'lek dancers, in the pictures they looked far away.
Maybe add some textures, to the hamster tube area and the box layout. It's just it's hard to distinguish different platforms.
Maybe use the droid pictured below, it was in one level in JK2.(Doom Communications) It has one little blaster, it has to stop and deploy before it can shoot. I know you wanted something with a sword but I thought this was cooler.
Maybe… do add Griffball, I’ve never played it but it looks fun. Griffball hails from Red vs. Blue; it’s a Halo thing. But it might require quite a bit of LUA coding to get it just right, and it may never work.

Grrr, must play map. But like I always say take your time, that way it is clearly amazing. :thumbs:

Look up grifball, may give you a good idea PM me for more on this
I really have to second this, I absolutly love griffball.
:yes: That could be really cool, though the fact that you can stumble/roll over in SWBF makes it different than HALO. (IF it can be coded of course)

Wouldn't that involve making a totally new model, making a totally/partially new animation (droideka, if possible) and hoping it works ingame= :quotes: quite a bit :quotes: of work

Not if you imported it from JK2, but that's almost as much work as making a new model. Droideka, the properties of a droideka would be perfect, as far as the whole "deploying to shoot" thing goes.

...the heck? No, it's not. I've ported 3 [relatively complicated ones] so far, and the only one I've had trouble with it Kit Fisto. I mean, it'll get a heckuva lot hard when my milkshape trial's over in about 12 hours, but hey. Although fixing the hands are annoying...

Rep, if I were a hot woman I'd marry you any day.

:lol:

But honestly, that is very amazing. I have wanted a chess minigame in an FPS for years, yet I never thought it would actually happen. Cheers on ya. :music:
