So here we go with another awesome experiment from me!

The Story:
I was fooling around in Jazz 2, developing "features" that would probably break the game balance, when I accidentally turned off layer 8 in my copy of Jazz 2 while playing multiplayer games. I asked the rest of the people to see that it wasn't a custom level, and they could see layer 8 fine! That's when an idea popped in my head:

The Idea:
I'm guessing what you're thinking. For now I've completely removed layer 8 in the original battle 1 (and later 2/3) levels! Hence its name: Layer 8-less. The effect is really awesome and I don't understand why people haven't done it before!

Screenshots and downloads:
I unfortunately don't have any screenshots, and no downloads available, but it's easy to make your own Layer 8-less level: simply remove all the tiles in layer 8! This works not just with the original Battle 1/2/3, but with any level! Enjoy layer 8-less battle (or CTF, or even Treasure) fun in any level! Heck, even do it in SP levels!
