Updates we have? Hmmm? First, paste my review of the previous version in, I shall! Then, at the changes look, we will!

[quote]Jaden Korr, in the books?! What is this insanity?!

...*Looks up on Wookieepedia*... Ohhh right, so it was Crosscurrent he was in, as well as a few of the post Yuuzhan Vong War 'Legacy of the Force' books as well! Well, I never knew that! I actually have Crosscurrent but have not read it yet, so I guess i will have to now! From what I know of the plot, it seems a group of Sith from thousands of years ago get lost in a bad hyperspace jump and end up thousands of years in the future, perhaps the only example of time travel that I am aware of in the Star Wars Universe.

Anyway, lets take a look at this skin pack!

A fine addition to his already large collection of skins, hollywood_g1 has given Jaden an older and slightly rougher look to go along with his greater experience, no longer the Padawan learner he was in JKA. There are multiple skins with clothing inspired by Starkillers look from The Force Unleashed, which I think fits the idea of a battler hardened older Jaden very well. Some of his armour features the Rebel emblem, which while it looks good is slightly inaccurate as it should probably bear the emblem of the New Republic or [url=http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/File:New_Jedi_Order.svg]New Jedi Order[/url]. There are various different skins to choose from, there is a robed version, which I think is my favourite and looks closest to the reference picture below, as well as a fully armoured version, among many others!

Though there are no team skins, the various body parts that make up these skins are available from the skin selection menu so you are able to create your own customized version of Jaden should you wish! I am glad to see that this is something that hollywoord_g1 has done quite a lot as it gives the player much more choice in which skin, or indeed, combination of skins they want to use.

Of course, nothing is perfect, and one of the things I think could be improved upon here is the hair. The hair is an almost ginger colour on top and black with some splashes of grey at the sides. Personally, I think the hair should be a darkish brown all over, with just a few grey streaks at the side burns, to make Jaden look older and wiser in a similar style to Kyle. At the moment there is just too much of a difference in colour between the hair on the top of his head and the hair on the sides.

Other than that though these skins are very good and certainly something a bit different! Overall this is a cool skin pack and they certainly resemble the cool piece of 'older Jaden' artwork (a book cover?) that hollywood_g1 has found and included in his screenshots below.

Keep up the excellent skinning! :)

How do you get so big, eating food of this kind?!

*Cough* Sorry, where was I? Oh, that's right, updates!

One of the most noticeable fixes for this new version is that hollywood_g1 has much improved the grey and brown areas of the hair over the previous version, which as I mentioned in my review did not blend together well. They now blend together well and look much better, though I have to say the brown on the top of Jaden's head still looks too bright and orangy. Sorry, but I am very fussy over details like this! ;)

Among the other updates the author has added four new torso clothing options, my favourites being the Jedi Trainer robes and the cool looking Mandalorian armour! The colour customization also works now, though only for one of the torso's as far as I could see; where it changes the colour of the piping on the robes.

It would be cool to see some more leg variations to choose from for next time and don’t forget, the head option doesn’t actually change the head, but rather changes the hands! You can choose from either bare hands, gloved hands, or a scary looking prosthesis, apparently attached after Jaden lost a few of his fingers in a battle (he came off better than Luke at least!). To avoid confusion, it may be better to actually put pictures of the different hands here as I myself was at first confused as to why the heads weren’t changing, before I realised it was actually the hands!

Overall a good update here, though I still think there could be further refinements. No mod is every perfect after all, but we can always try and get as close to perfection as possible! ;)

Lastly I would also suggest changing the .pk3 name by adding a _v3 or something to the end for next time, as people may be confused if the .pk3 filename for the new version is the same as the old one!

Keep up the excellent work hollywood_g1, I can see you have a few other files in our waiting list and I will review them as soon as I can!
