Here is my original review with some added comments:

“Patchy” is actually an apt description overall for these two levels. The enemies on both are usually very close to eachother, and there are long areas of “droughts” where there are no enemies. This can get a bit annoying after a while. I generally dislike levels that use this method, though it can be used creatively. This was not one of those cases in which it was used well. Parts of the level had way too much action while other parts had absolutely none.
>> This still rings true for these levels. Very little about them is patched, and I am very disappointed at the author saying “If you fall and can not get up, type in jjk.” The user should not have to cheat to be able to finish the level under any circumstances. Fix your own level before uploading. Especially since this is supposedly a “fixed” version, I would expect to see fixes for major bugs such as these – apparently not.

The eyecandy of this level is so-so. There are a few REALLY SMALL tile bugs that get in the way of play, but not enough to completely destroy the rating. Eyecandy is slightly below average in this respect. The backgrounds from these levels were ripped from levels that came with the original Jazz 2 episodes. While this looks and feels fine, I would rather see a unique background for each levels. This is a case where there is very little to complain about eyecandy-wise, but there just is nothing interesting.
>> Barely any interesting eyecandy was added at all. I wonder why the author chose to upload this anyway, because there is very little difference between this and the other one he uploaded. First off, fix EVERYTHING before uploading. And if you must upload a fix, make sure it is worthwhile.

Some parts of the level are harder than they needed to be, such as the spike pit which is pretty much impossible to avoid. The dragon pit thing (hard to explain) was also too hard. This is an example of the “patchy” quality of this level.
>> There is not much more to add here either. Gameplay remains more or less the same. I can not see many fixed bugs, and this should have simply been reuploaded.

There were not enough weapons. Only one powerup and some bouncy ammo was in the level, and was hidden. Prepare to rely mainly on your blaster for getting through this level.
>> Yawn. Yet another example of a lack of change. I do not see much that this fixes at all.

Gameplay is far below average. The “patchy” thing really makes the level not fun to play at all. If the enemies were to be more spread out, this level might be even slightly above average. Unfortunately, everything is bunched together. This downgrades the quality of this level by a lot.
>> Same old, same old. This level has not changed significantly enough to warrant any mention.

+ PROS: Few eyecandy bugs.
>> No change.

- CONS: Bunched together stuff downgrades overall fun. Uninteresting eyecandy. Ripped backgrounds.
>> Add to that list “Few actual changes. Should have been reuploaded.”

VERDICT: My rating for these levels is 3.7 and no download recommendation. Even single player freaks will find this level aggrevating. It simply is not very good. I am sorry, but I can not recommend this at all.
>> I was considering giving this something in the 4’s, but decided not to. There just is not enough change. Also, you packagesd several files that should not have been packaged (mod2j2b, for instance) and are of no use. I will be nice and give this a rating of 4, even though it does not deserve the extra 0.3 points over the original. Next time, if you need to make a bug fix, reupload it instead of doing this. That is all I have to say about this. Oh, and one last thing: why did you have to reupload all of the tilesets and music? Unless I am missing something, nothing much really changed there. This barely deserves a reupload, and definitely not a seperate download.

EDIT: My apologies on one note. You uploaded the tilesets and music under a seperate account and they were not functional. Still, the question remains of why you need so many accounts in the first place. This still is worth nothing but a reupload, regardless.

EDIT again: Oh, yes, alright. I only saw two levels. I raise my rating slightly.
