At long last, the first version of the ShroomDuck INC Map Pack! Throughout the 2 years of the map pack's progress, many of our members have had to put the projects on the backburner because of real life. Two of our members have faced life threatening health conditions, one has gotten married, and all have been busy with school or work. Because of this, many projects which weren't close to a stable release had to be tossed so that we could get a release out. We hope to be able to release these in the future, but realistically, this may be it.
UPDATE:
Hey folks, KaiStagon here. Wow. The positive response we got from the first release was just incredible. It's great to see so many people are still playing JK2 and are looking for new and interesting gamemodes! Well we're back, and we have a few more tricks up our sleeves. Included are fixes to the following
maps:
-Bespin Ruins- created by Lil' Binger. It was my (KaiStagon) mistake, but I accidentally put an early version of this map in the pack by mistake. The new version has several less bugs and many new features. Again, my bad!
-Duel_sdyavin- created by ShroomDuck. Again, my bad. I placed an unstable version of this map as well in the pack. Rest assured, those ugly fog brushes which made sight impossible are now gone.
-Haunt- created by ook. Missing rock and glass textures are now fixed.
-ctf_boognishmines- added clipping to make travel in the mines a bit easier.
-Pinworld Duel- missing texture fixed.
-Shroom's Deathstar- droid sounds removed from the hangar. You can put away the advil now.
Additionally, we've included some more maps which weren't quite ready in the original release:
-Big Hill- created by Drahcir. This is an experimental gametype map, where players compete for the position at the top of a large hill. Players can fire cannons to take the hill by storm!
-Sirhc's Bowling (re-release)- created by Sirhc. Originally created as Sirhc's entry for the ShroomDuck Mapping contest, this map was released independently. Now we've rounded it back up for you to enjoy again :)
-Team Wookiee Invades South Park- created by KaiStagon with some help from all of Team Wookiee! This map is an out-door environment based on some locales from the show South Park with our own Team Wookiee twist. Members of TW have "South Park-ized" themselves for use in the map, making it one unique clan map. Can you find the hidden Man-Bear-Pig?
-Bikini Bottom- created by KaiStagon. This map is a 3d version of some of the 2d places seen in the TV show "SpongeBob Squarepants," because... well, why not? Some important notes: Pressing "use" on the door of Spongebob's Pineapple and the door to the Chum Bucket allows the player to enter. Additionally, Patrick's rock will open when "used."
Below is the old readme, slightly modified, which contains all information regarding the rest of the maps. We've also included the SDInc skin pack, which was previously only available through our FTP.. Read the next readme for information regarding those files.

At long last, the first version of the ShroomDuck INC Map Pack! Throughout the 2 years of the map pack's progress, many of our members have had to put the projects on the backburner because of real life. Two of our members have faced life threatening health conditions, one has gotten married, and all have been busy with school or work. Because of this, many projects which weren't close to a stable release had to be tossed so that we could get a release out. We hope to be able to release these in the future, but realistically, this may be it.
Maps Include:
- Bespin Ruins- created by lil binger. This map features the classic MP Bespin totally demolished. All doors lead to areas modeled after the SP bespin missions. This is one huge map!
- Big Cannon- created by Drahcir with help from lil binger and KaiStagon. Touching the door attached to the nuclear cannon teleports the player inside, where he is then launched up and away at an incredible speed.
- CTF_Country Roads- created by ShroomDuck, Kavu, & Drahcir with help from lil binger. Go catch the flag now, y'all, y'hear?
- CTF_BOOGNISH MINES- Concept by KaiStagon & ShroomDuck, created by KaiStagon, Drahcir, & Sirhc with help from rhiom, ook, lil binger, Kavu, and Blue. The immortal Boognish calls upon thee again! Two towers with destructable floors face each other, with flags nestled inside, and a mine shaft at the bottom. The control pannel in the heart of the mine activates the forcefield separating the two towers above ground. This map features a lot of brand new gametype techniques, as well as new mixed music made in the tradition of "ffa_ They Might Be Jedi's" iconic background track.
- Khomm series- (multiple gametype maps- ctf_khomm, ffa_khomm, khomm_lab, khomm_lavacave, khomm_pit, tffa_khomm) created by lil binger. This series is a variation on a lava-encrusted asteroid, with each map adding to the red-hot atmosphere.
- Jedi of the Carribean- created by ShroomDuck & Kavu with help from lil binger & ook. Yo ho, a Jedi's life for me! Features two fully explorable ships, The Pandy Fackler and The Grobe, as well as a rocky cliff with a lighthouse on top.
- FFA_CARIBBEANII- Created by lil binger. Row boats equipped with deadly umbrellas traverse this water cave for a tight FFA!
- Jedi of the Caribbean Duel- created by ShroomDuck & Kavu with help from lil binger. Yargh, it's dueling time matey!
- Yavin Duel- created by ShroomDuck. Shroom's variation on the JK2 classic.
- Pinworld Duel- created by Sirhc. Based on an area from Sirhc's map "Sirhc's Bowling." The dude abides!
- Mustafar- created by Blue with help from KaiStagon. Blue's vision of how Mustafar might look after the events of Ep.3.
- Shroom's DeathStar v2- created by ShroomDuck with help from Kavu & KaiStagon. The old classic gets a MAJOR facelift! New textures, completely remodled areas, and brand-spankin' new areas such as the retracting bridge corridor added. I think it's time we witnessed the full power of this battle station...
- Ook's Haunt- created by Ook. BOO! This haunted house has more traps and secrets than you can handle! Try not to get too scared!
- Super Mario 64- created by KaiStagon. It's-a-me, Mario! This map features Peach's Castle, Bomb-omb battlefield, Cool Cool Mountain, Bowser's Arena, and the Princess's slide all modeled after the N64 game.
- Forest Moon of Endor- created by ShroomDuck with help from KaiStagon & Ook. Ewoks in the trees! Imperials in the bunker! ATAT & ATST can fire lazers, logs will swing, and springs will throw! Features Shroom's obstacle duel pad!
- Rhiom's Retreat- created by rhiom. A beautiful samaurai paradise, complete with traditional architecture and hidden areas.
- spacestation- concept by ShroomDuck, created by rhiom with help from Drahcir & KaiStagon. A large rotating station placed in space, fully explorable inside 'n out! A light beam at the bottom sucks the player in, and the slippery tubes throughout act as a unique mode of transportation.
- Puerto De Drahcir- created by Drahcir. A scenic village placed along side a large ship. The picture in the ship's interior teleports the player to the at-sea battle! Two ships face off, fighting with emplaced guns and cannonballs!
- Transdermal Celebration- created by KaiStagon. The Boognish watches from above... This map features destroyed castles floating high in the earth's atmosphere, and is inspired by the Ween song of the same name.
