ATTN: THIS MOD HAS BEEN CANCELLED
The Rising Empire is a mod for Jedi Academy, that is based off a novel I started writing years ago, that was set in it's own universe. But most of it was based off of a small idea, and a character, I put in the Star Wars universe. This mod, is based off the Star Wars version of the story, and follows the story, of Jarron Siscer - a young man, living on Coruscant, ten years after the Clone Wars.
What I've done, for the game adaptation of the story, is divide the mod into three parts:(note that each Chapter will contain about 3-4 maps)
Chapter 1: Is set entirely on Coruscant.
- First map, is mostly an introduction, and doesn't invlove much as far as gameplay - mostly walking around and talking to people.
- Second Map, is a chase through the streets, into the sewers, and to the outside of the Imperial Research Facility.
- Third Map, will be the infultration, of the interrior of the Facility. I'm hoping to give the play the choice, of beaing stealthy, or just going in guns' a blazin' with the alarms going off (still working on this) Then It ends, with a complex escape cutscene.
Details on the other two chapters, are not being revealed, at this time.
(although, I will say The Rising "Empire", is actually referring to a different Empire)

OK, so after recieving a message from someone recently, over MOD DB, from my e-mail, I remembered that I HAD, at one time, a bunch of people following this project, and I sadly got all their hopes up after some point in 2006, when I was determined to push something out for people to atleast play, or view in some way.
Not too long after my last post, things happened in real life and things didn't happen, I moved around a few times focused more on work and finishing college and I lost alot of progress, as I had to restore my computer from backups that were a few months old - at that point I prettymuch stopped and found a few other projects that wouldn't kill me in every psychological way imaginable, like this mod was doing.
I really regret to inform everyone that the Maps I've made were never really ready as playble maps and had many subjective holes that needed patching not to mention the way the opening city-scape map was structured just wasn't working...long story short, it'll never see the light of day, as a finished project.
IF you want to see anything of this project, as it was toward the end - I uploaded a video to youtube a year or two ago, showcasing the original "planned opening" for The Rising Empire - and out of sheer spite for my terrible dialogue and story writing for the time - I wrote-in some commentary that you might find annoying but after years of the same story, over and over, and then coming back to it years later looking back on it almost as if it were some silly drawing from 3rd grade Art class...it was annoying for me. =D
My only hope is that I'll be able to finish something else that I've started, now.
I'd like to thank you all for following this project for so long and sticking with me though the whole process and I apologise for leading you all on for so long, with nothing to really show for it (except maybe one player model that I actually released long ago) - But this sadly had to come to an end.
