WIP: RATTATAK ARENA (Vyse ,Lord Bandu and now Teancum)

Vyse and myself have been workin on all new Hero Assault map. This map is Rattatak Arena ,which some of you may know from the Clone Wars cartoon.However, our map has a twist . It has Knights of the Old Republic era heroes ,which Vyse has been creating.

Vyse has made some FANTASTIC new skins . You will have seen a few of them already (Darth Revan etc) but he has made more that you will find out later. He has also added in new music,sounds and a couple of force powers.

My job is to create a map that is fitting enough for these great skins. The modeling phase is very nearly complete. Finalising the textures and collisions will be next and then onto the usual ZE stuff like barriers , AI pathing , aswell as adding a 3rd team of animals (Acklay)and localizing. Finally ,there are a couple of bugs to be fixed.

I have also included a little suprise in the units . It isnt KOTOR related but its an ideal map to include it in.

Here is a little teaser screenshot of part of the interior. Whilst the actual arena area is pretty much complete , it lacks bumpmaps for the moment so I dont want to show it just yet.

**We are still in need of Force Powers , so if you would like to have your powers showcased in the arena , please post them here (or PM either me or Vyse)**


As with any mod/map we cannot set a release date but I'd hazard a guess that you should get it before the weekend is over.Again, this isnt a release date , its just a guess.

I have this pretty sweet force power if ya want, you could even make it yourself pretty easy. It's called Force Mind Crush and is simply a killing move though of course it has limitations for reloading and stamina so you aren't invincible. I also have a force wave and am looking into getting mace's ground crush animation for that. Talk to me on msn if ya interested. Anyway sweet map. I am looking forward to it!!!

Lord Bandu and Vyse

LOL... :) I like KotOR era lol

P.S. But Darth Revan had 2 lightsabers - violet (right hand) and red (left hand).
If you remember, in Kotor2`s Korriban, the Exile founded Darth Revan`s ghost (in Shyrak`s cave)

Well, he was going with the KOTOR 1 version of Revan in the Cinematics so... :p
I've also played Kotor2 and beaten it, but I remember him only having 1 saber. It must've been a different perspective, cause I fought him with him only having one.
Really, I am telling the truth. :p

This map is so cool, I can't wait. :D

Whatever saber/s he had when you get the flashback of him fighting Bastilla is what we'll have . Any1 remember ? or can find out?


The map is just hero assault.

In the cutscene where he faces Bastilla Revan is using a one-handed red lightsaber before his ship is attacked by Malak.
