You  will also need this: https://mega.nz/#!WdYxhSoQ!py_faVaYWl75EPeIXbiKwVKONh3UxYFQe5nr6F6LFOc

After installing both files, put your BattlefrontII.exe folder in your Server Manager folder, and take either the fast spawn, or regular swbfspy.exe files: rename the one you want to use to BattlefrontII.exe and place it where the original one used to be!

Here is a list of maps and their names!

dea1 - Death Star
rhn2 - Rhen Var Citadel (Xbox, and PC only)
bes1 - Bespin (Xbox and PC only)
Test1 - (PSP and PC only)
kam1 - Kamino
kas2 - Kashyyk
nab2 - Naboo
tat2 - Mos Eisley
tat3 - Jabba's Palace
cor1 - Coruscant
dag1 - Dagobah
fel1 - Felucia
geo1 - Geonosis
mus1 - Mustafar
myg1 - Mygeeto
pol1 - Polis Massa
tan1 - Tantive IV
uta1 - Utapau
spa - Space maps

Modes:


_con - Conquest
_flg - 1 - flag
_2flg - 2 Flag
_asu - assault (Space) (Jedi Assault if after Mos Eisley)
_hun - Hunt

Example:

dea1_con = Death Star Conquest
geo1_asu = Geonosis Assault

The CW or GW eras are seen next to your map, for example;

Map                                        Mode                                Era
tat2_con                               Conquest                      Clone Wars
tat3_con                               Conquest                  Galactic Civil Wars
rhn2_asu                               Assault                    Galactic Civil Wars
and so on, so forth...

I Followed every step and my server still wont show up on the server list.

If you are using a PC you will need to set you hosts file

Don't believe everything you read on the internet

i can. i can see the server list with the swbfgamers server on it

Can you list the steps you did take?  Including links to downloads that you used so that we can check everything.

Don't forget that if you host from home you also must set up port forwarding.

i made a setup video for it when i was trying to help MamaLuigi get the server online hope this can help others . like Led said you will have to port forward 3658/3659 udp on your router/cable box/windows firewall/antivirus firewall

I did'nt need to port forward, but if you don't then there is a chance that if you use 2 PS2's, they won't be able to connect at the same time if the IP Addresses are simaler, or the same!

But if you do port forward, it might fix the issue.
