SWBF1 Modding / Endor: Imperial Base [WIP]
March 25, 2024, 06:47:02 AM
The third and quite possibly final map in my SWBF2015 Demake series is one I've wanted to tackle ever since I first started this little side project.

Progress is bit-by-bit, so here's some shots so far.









Heroes will be the Emperor for the Empire, and Princess Leia for the Rebels.

Just a word of warning: a hacker has compromised iamashaymin's (the SWBF3 Legacy lead developer) account and has already tried to compromise other accounts in an attempt to close down SWBF-related Discord servers - SWBF3 Legacy's official server and the Gametoast server were targeted. If anybody here is on Discord and has been in contact with shaymin prior, you might want to block and report that account, and be sure to change passwords if you use the same password outside of Discord just to be sure. And remember: if somebody suddenly sends you something on Discord that is unsolicited, and makes a request like "hi, please test my game", then it's 99% an attempt to hijack your account.

This particular hacker masqueraded as shaymin by providing details that related to the community, such as certain in-jokes in the community, so be extra vigilant.

Released Maps and Mods / Naboo: Siege Of Theed
November 25, 2023, 02:41:43 AM
This is Naboo: Siege of Theed, inspired by the 1999 Phantom Menace video game. TBH, I lost my modding mojo for quite a while, so I did this little project to help me get it back.

It can be played in both Clone Wars (Trade Federation Vs Royal Naboo Security Forces) and Galactic Civil War (501st Legion Triton Squad vs Royal Naboo Security Forces).

Released Assets / Improved Imperial unit models
December 10, 2022, 02:45:41 AM
Hi, here's my new improved Imperial units, including new pilots I put together to more consistently line up with the other Stormtroopers visually. You may use these any which way you want, including improving the textures.

Here is my newest map, Hoth: Rebel Base. It's a 'demake' of the map from the 2015 game, with custom sides. A total of 6 CPs are in this map, 12 AI per side since it is a fairly small map, 175 reinforcements in total. Unlike Dune Sea Exchange (which has also been updated, BTW) this map is more 'closed'.

SWBF1 Modding / Hoth: Rebel Base (2015 map demake)
October 27, 2022, 02:07:13 PM
Here's a couple of WIP shots of my next map, a demake of the Rebel Base map from the 2015 game. I've wanted to do something like this for some time now, but couldn't find the time or inspiration, but after successfully completing Dune Sea Exchange, I've decided to have another go at it. It's already blocked out as these teaser shots show, and I'm in the process of creating from that blockout.

Like Dune Sea Exchange, it's a small, close-quarters-combat map but unlike that map, it's indoors so combat will basically come down to what command posts can be seized. 5 command posts will be there in total and the sides will be based upon the Dune Sea Exchange map's sides.

Here is my latest map, Tatooine: Dune Sea Exchange. It's a 'demake' of the map from the 2015 game, with custom sides. A total of 5 CPs are in this map, 12 AI per side since it is a fairly small map, 175 reinforcements in total.

SWBF1 Modding / Tatooine: Dune Sea Exchange [WIP]
October 22, 2022, 03:45:44 AM
Having fallen out of map-making for a while, I decided to go back to an old map I had started some time ago but never completed. Much like Scarif: Landing Pad 13, this is effectively a 'demake' of a DICE Battlefront map. There will be a total of four or five command posts. It'll be a fairly small map and I plan on including custom sides ALA Scarif, Hoth and The Invisible Hand

Here's some shots in-editor and during the first-run test:

SWBF1 Modding / Bespin: Carbon Chambers
July 24, 2022, 12:23:25 PM
Here's the next map I'm making: Bespin: Carbon Chambers. It's inspired by the DICE map but it's not slavish to that version, instead pulling elements from the stock map and film source. It's also the first of three Bespin maps I have planned, including Cloud City and Administrator's Palace.

As with The Invisible Hand, there will be custom sides. I plan on having the map playable in both Clone Wars and Galactic Civil War eras.

Here's some screenshots of the model work so far:

Hi, this is my most recent mod. I took the ideas behind the old 'Visually-Improved Sides Mod' and drove it into a sort of 'unofficial update' direction. So, with that, I've made some changes to balancing that can be found in the list below. This is not an 'overhaul' in the same manner as most of my older mods, because the idea was to keep to the stock sides setup as faithfully as possible while balancing things out a bit and tweaking a few things. I've also reworked things to make it more faithful to the source material.

Word of warning: this should be addon map compatible, with the exception of Jabba's Palace. I will be posting a separate update to Jabba's Palace to work with 1.4.

Microsoft has just announced they have bought Activision Blizzard King. The deal for the beleaguered publisher/developers is reported to be about $70billion - almost ten times what Microsoft paid for Bethesda.

This pack contains three previously-converted PSP maps bunbled with new sides:

-Bespin

The sides are based primarily on those seen in the previous Bespin release, though they have been altered since. See below for more details.

Since the last update, it seems that the old spoiler/hide functions are gone. This doesn't just go for new posts either: pre-update posts that used this feature are now 'broken'. This feature was quite useful if you were sharing large amounts of images.
