Description
Smc762 returns with a bugfix update to his recent Korriban Arena map1 I will paste my original review below and then cover the new improvements:

[quote]Korriban maps have always been a staple of JKA mapping, but I have to say it has been a while since I have seen one that is as good as this!smc762 brings us a medium sized duel map with some deadly traps to watch out for, such as deadly spikes and devices to roast you alive. I wont go into too much detail, as that would spoil the fun now wouldn’t it? Suffice it to say, there were a couple of instances where I jumped out of my skin whilst running around as these traps were well camouflaged and came as quite a surprise.

The layout is simple and clean, bot offers a few different areas such as narrow walkways and a large open center area (which is more dangerous than it sounds... ehehehe) and the architecture has some nice details and the texturing is well done. One particular aspect I was impressed with is the lava which looks much more \'alive\' than the slightly insipid base JKA stuff, as it moves and oozes around a lot and looks quite cool (or hot)!

Last but not least the map features the \'asteroid chase\' music from The Empire Strikes back, which has to be some of my favourite Star Wars music of all time and has a great tempo for a duel map!

As far as improvements go, I would suggest putting a little more detail into the \'lava falls\' around the edge of the map, as they look a little flat. Perhaps some crusty dried lava around the edge of the falls, or some more structural elements like some buttresses containing the lava falls would be good, as they look a little flat at the moment.

Apart from that this is a very well finished duel map with some cool booby traps and definitely worth a download if you are looking for some danger! ;)

So whats new? Well the author lists the below bug fixes in his readme:

[quote]
Fixed misaligned textures.
Added several missing spikes.
Removed small floating brush near one of the doors.
Removed several unnecessary brushes.
Increased speed of sinking platforms.
Added clip brushes to steps and corners.
Added platform sound effects.[/quote]

I am a bit of a perfectionist myself, so its cool to see someone revisit their map and polish, beat and iron out all the niggling little bugs that they may have noticed since they released it. I always hated being told about a bug I had missed in my own maps after they had been submitted, especially when you spend forever combing the map for them! Oh well, nothing is 100% perfect!

Personally I would like to see an FFA version of this map, as it is one of the most creative Korriban themed maps I have seen for a bit. Keep up the fine work!
