Clone Wars Startup Pack

Description
This is a nifty little pack which modifies JKA's default sub-menu setup, introducing a new startup screen, loading screens and other various graphics. It is, as you've probably deduced from its title, centered around ideas and images from the clone wars cartoon series, and as such, whilst this may not entirely correspond to JKA's intended graphical style, it is still a welcome change. Be careful about clashes with other similar pk3 files however - as these replacements will not work with other similar mods.

My favorite addition here was the new splash screen, which is set at dusk near a small temple with two lightsaber wielders facing each other. The star wars logo is emblazed with perspective onto a nearby rock wall and looks very sharp. I also quite liked the new startup screen, as the buttons are clear and the artwork fits. I would have preferred the removal of the author's name from the bottom-left hand corner however. It also includes a new sound set, which is a mixed bag. It's really only the vocal samples which don't work, the others sound fine. :)

I wasn't so keen on the loading screen or loading bar - there's too much white space here which makes them look a little plain, and the loading bar doesn't look good in red, at least, not for me ;) The little text logs on these does look nifty though, even if it isn't always entirely relevant to the map you are loading. I quite think you guys should take a look at the screenshots and see what you think, as I'm sure it will appeal to some of you.
