     About this pack
---------------

This is battle pack, includes now 24 battle levels, using my tilesets
(Aztec, Beton, Rocks, Glacier, Desert and Wasteland). Has ten already 
released levels, but those levels are updated. (Bug fixing...etc.) This
pack has the final versions of my oldest tilesets, Aztec, Beton and Rocks.
This pack also includes some custom music. Please read "Tileset
Information" section, there is more info about the tilesets. Have a nice
playing time.

Please play in 16-bit mode, if possible. Yes, I made (Iceman teached me
how) the warp backgrounds work in 8-bit modes, but everything looks too
sharp (Gems, transparencies, warp backgrounds...etc) in these
low-bit-modes.

This pack starts from level "Andes Mountains" (AztecBattle.j2l), but you
can start playing from other levels too. The levels are mixed now.

For level makers and everybody else:
  If you are making level using my tileset and don't know all the tricks
how use these sets,   or just want to see how I made  these levels, this
can help you. Password to all levels in   this pack is simply "blade".

For those people who want to know how I made these tilesets:
 I Just used 4-years old Paint Shop Pro 4 (I think v4 is the best) I used
just regular  brush. No any filters or other technical stuff.

If you have questions or comments, send an email to me.
(svesanen@hotmail.com)
And please do not ask about the music looping bug. The music won't loop,
and the reason probably is in the modules I converted to be JJ2 compatible.


Notice: Levels and tilesets are made with Jazz Jackrabbit version v1.23.

will be wood.
