This reminds me of a similar project I wanted to do in the future, based off Jedi Power Battles: "Naboo: Cliffs".

Yes, the Commando may have more than two primary weapons, however, they were primary weapons. In total, I believe a unit can only have four weapons.

Here's a screen of the new unit (this here's from my Mission Mod that's coming up, but it'll be essentially the same):



At first glane you might say this is just a Phase II clone, but look a bit more carefully at the helmet.

This is how the Clone Troopers looked in the PS2/Wii version of The Force Unleashed.

Okay, DEVISS-REX has kindly donated a new model to me. it's the Clone Trooper with a Stormtrooper helmet, and it'll be used as the main skin for the Imperial 501st here - it looks a dmaned sight closer to the PS2 version of the Phase II-point-V clones seen in the prologue mission.

lol.

Consider the pack I released a "Demo". I'm doing more missions now. So far, I have the following mapped out:

-SPACE: Coruscant - the space map I had announced in another thread
-SPACE: Mustafar - CIS vs Imperials space battle.
-Kashyyyk: Invasion - based on the first mission of TFU, mod of Kashyyyk: Docks, with new vehicles.
-Kamino: Changing of the Guard
-Mustafar: Tying Up Loose Ends
-Coruscant: Order 66
-Naboo: Battle of the Grassy Plains - mod of Naboo: Plains.

I'll also be redoing the Kamino mission to feature on BFII Kamino.

I want to do others but for now that is all I can think of.

I wouldn't rule BFIII out. ES was the portable version of BFIII. Just retitled when the big console versions fell through.

Can a mod move this into the Releases section?

Okay, here's the beta release.

It still has the CIS voice glitch, mind.

There's also a bonus map: tata - Tatooine: Hero Assault.

Well, we already know about TOR, and don't forget, it had TFU and BF: elite Squadron trailer footage in there too.

Probably turn out to be LEGO Star Wars: The Clone Wars.

I did that already.

Mustafar: Tying Up Loose Ends

And, just in case you wanted it:

Kamino: Changing of the Guard

The paint is supposed to look like that since I got the skins from the Conversion pack. You are close - that is actually a Phase II texture for the helmet. I think it more closely resembles the PS2 501st from The Force Unleashed, and that was my goal, after all.

The Alliance Hovernaut is a command tank cut from the game. It acts as a mobile spawn point exactly the same as an MTT, AT-AT or AT-TE.

EDIT: Kashyyyk is being infuriating right now. It refuses to play the standard SFX when I have the custom SFX file loaded. Kashyyyk is the ONLY planet that happens on! And, as an addition, it ONLY happens in CW (GCW works fine)

Okay, a few more screens to show:



The MTT is slow-moving, but it has cannons which fire two coupled shots at a time. A Republic Fighter Tank would soon fall beneath the barrage.



New 501st skin for Kashyyyk Imperials:

That is if I can even get the Clone Wars to work again. For some odd reason, I have yet to fathom it, but the damn thing freezes at the end of load. The dial still goes.

I've even tried loading the stock levels and removing any and all references to the new CW, which makes me conclude one thing only: An error with the additional sound files is causing this.

EDIT: Confirmed, it is the sound file. It doesn't like the MTT sounds I included, either that or I forgot to add some in there. In any case, I've fixed it for now by removing the sounds. Kashyyyk is throwing a temper-tantrum at the moment, but I will get it working.

The AT-XT works beautifully. I have armed it with the Republic Fighter's cannons (rather than the AT-ST's cannons), and the AT-RT's mortar launcher.

In the meantime, here's a couple of new shots, pretty much proof-of-concept:

MTT will be available on Rhen var Harbor (If the CIS capture the Republic's staging CP), and on Naboo Plains (I'm using some unused vehicle spawn points here). Hovernaught will be the same on Rhen Var and it will also be on Naboo Plains too, although I have yet to figure out where else to put it.

As a consequence, on Naboo Plains, Imperials start with a couple of AT-ATs, and if the Republic/Alliance capture their CP, they will get AT-TEs/Hovernaut.

Okay, I have some retooling to do with the Republic/CIS sides as they keep on freezing the game upon load (The Load dial still spins but I waited about ten minutes before giving up). This happens on ALL levels, not just the ones I've changed. So I'm going back to the assets I released, pairing it with the amended weapons ODFs I have, and remaking the Republic and CIS LVL files again.

I can say for certain it's not the new vehicles. I made a separate side LVL, thinking that the MTT was the cause, but if the MTT was the cause, I would now have no working eras (as the side LVL contains all vehicles).

On the upshot, I've inserted the following new vehicles into the game:

- K-Wing
- MTT (needs testing, can't get on to do it just yet as CW era freezes)
- Virago Fighter (NOTE: Those who played my Naboo: Prototype conversion will know this)
- Scarab Fighter (NOTE: Those who played my Naboo: Prototype conversion will know this)
- V19 Strafighter (NOTE: Those who played my Naboo: Prototype conversion will know this)
- TIE X1 (NOTE: Those who played my Naboo: Prototype conversion will know this)
- Rebel Attack Speeder (From BF2, on Yavin IV Arena, and Tatooine: Mos Eisley)
- AT-XT
- Light Attack Speeder (NOTE: Those who played my Naboo: Prototype conversion will know this)
- Rebel Hovernaught

I do have the AT-PT but I have yet to figure out where to put it ingame. I was thinking of either creating 2 Mission LVL files - one with Naboo Guards in Theed, one with Rebels, or just having rebels, and instead having the Naboo Guard variation as a separate addon mission with the pack.

Speaking of the Video Game Awards, LucasArts is announcing a new Star Wars game there in December. Fingers crossed for BFIII.

The DS version is good in the Campaign mode, but it lacks in the Instant Action mode. It's not the "portable battlefront experience on the DS" they bragged about giving us.
