• AdvancedMover (UT2004) -> AdvancedMover (UT2004)
  Version: 0.96
  Basic Description: A mover with enhanced functionality. (obvious, right?)
  
  Current Features:
  1. Can have 256 keyframes with individual move-times.
  2. Move time can be specified for each keyframe.
  3. Can specify whether to use individual MoveTimes or a single "global" MoveTime
  4. Can jump back to Key0 once it reaches the last keyframe and has delayed for its StayOpenTime. (not just in ConstLoop mode)
  5. Can be set to accumulate damage to reach the DamageThreshold
  6. Can specify whether the mover begins locked or not
  7. Can specify whether or not the mover needs to be unlocked only once (the key is no longer required)
  8. Can specify the Key (soon, multiple keys)
  9. Can specify the locked and unlocked sounds and their respective volume, pitch, and radius
  10. Can choose whether or not a key is needed to "open" and/or "close" a mover when set to TriggerToggle
  11. Can be a delay between unlocking and triggering.
  12. Can be set to shake the screen at all "states" (except for "moving")
  13. Can shake the screen at each keyframe.
  14. Events can be called at each keyframe.
  15. Can play sounds at each keyframe, including the ability to change the AmbientSound.
  16. In-Editor help. This is a bit hacky, but there are menus that begin with the word "Help_" that contain info about properties that are new to the AdvancedMover class.

Maps

• DM-KatahfuTemple (UT2003) -> DM-KatahfuTemple (UT2003)
  
  Basic Description: Multi-leveled, Egyptian-Themed DeathMatch map.
  
  Preview Description: Tournament producers have unveiled their latest arena. This time UT takes you deep into the deserts of Egypt to the ancient Temple of Katahfu. Revived from its millenia of dormancy, this playground of blood will be a grim delight for fans and competitors alike.
  
  A new version of this map is now being created for UT2004.

• CTF-BattleCruiser (UT2003) -> CTF-BattleCruiser (UT2003)
  
  This is barely under weigh. And, in fact, will mostly be a UT2004 map instead.
