Hi all,

My computer recently died with all data irretrievable. I got a new computer and redownloaded the GOG version of SWBFI but it appears the offline backup is now their "patched" 1.3 version and not the classic 1.2 version of the game. I'm not interested in playing their version where most of my favorite mod maps don't work. How can I go about reverting my version of the game to 1.2?
Thanks!

Hey everyone, some of you might remember way back I made gameplay videos of SWBF1 and 2 for a while. After years of wanting to do that again and noticing quite the content desert when it comes to the original games on YouTube these days, I've finally started the channel back up! If you are in the mood for some old school YouTube SWBF gaming, come check it out! If there's anything you'd like to see me play or do in the original games, I'm happy to oblige! :)

Hey all,

I recently got my hands on a PC laptop and downloaded SWBFI from GOG, however the game version is 1.3 (yuck) and breaks many of my favorite mod maps.
Is there a download on this site that can revert my game back to ol reliable 1.2?
I see various downloads for SWBFSpy, is this the same tool to revert to 1.2?
Don't really care about playing online, just want to have the stable version of the game again.
Appreciate the help!



Edit
Disregard, after fiddling around more in GOG Galaxy I found how to revert.
For future people with the same question you go to the setting tab/manage installation/configure, then choose the game version you want to play on (see attached screenshot).

Now I can play those precious Sereja maps again. :cheers:

Has anyone ever actually found Sereja's hidden profile picture on any of his maps?
(According to his map readme's his picture is hidden as an easter egg)
I have played them so many times but I've never come across it...

General / Advice for buying a laptop to mod SWBF
June 04, 2020, 12:01:44 PM
Hey everyone!
With EA SWBF2 ending support and the game being left in an "eh" state (and with no EA SWBF3 on the horizon) I've decided to pursue my dream hobby of modding SWBF1 to my hearts content. The problem is, I don't know where to begin.
First things first, I need to purchase a PC laptop to mod SWBF on but I'm not sure which to get or if the mod tools software will run on a semi-recent laptop.
I also want a laptop that is good enough to run SWBF2 using all of those fancy remastered mods, and to play both games online using the GOG servers they recently brought back.

Do any of you have any suggestions as to what OS I should pursue and what brand/model of laptop would be good?

I'm trying to keep the price range at max $400, preferably lower. I don't mind it being a 10 year old laptop as I won't be playing anything new on it. Only the old Star Wars games of the glory days.

Any help is much appreciated!

Hey everyone! Just thought I'd make a little anniversary post for the great Star Wars Battlefront (2004) that started it all.

Despite not being as active here as in the past I still play the Battlefront games all the time. I mostly play EA Battlefront 2 on Xbox now with my brother (if you play on the West Coast servers you'll see me a lot in Capital Supremacy under the good ol' gamertag, kitfisto15678).

Seeing all the 15 year anniversary posts, sales etc. on the internet made me think of this grand old forum and all the great years and countless hours I spent playing the original (still my favorite of all the games in the franchise) and exploring all the mods and how happy I am there is still a space for people who are newly discovering the long lasting joy that SWBFI gives and a wonderful archive of all the amazing mods and modding guides.

Big thank you to everyone here who still keeps things running!

What are all some of your greatest memories of Star Wars Battlefront (2004) and do you still play the old games? The new games? Are they with the same people as 15 years ago?

Tech Support / SWBFI on Windows 10?
October 07, 2018, 06:17:37 PM
So my brother got a gaming PC built recently and he's been wanting to play SWBFI. I got the game on his computer and it launches fine and everything, however it lags tremendously and the audio cuts out.
Is there some special thing we have to do to get it to run on his computer because it's an old game?
Or a set of settings for video/audio to make it run?

His specs are as follows
Windows 10
AMD Ryzn 5 1600 6-core
Radeon RX580 Series
AMD Radeon Graphics Processor (0x67DF).

If you need more specs I can provide that, I just don't know what's relevant for this problem.

Edit: Just did more research, could it have something to do with DirectX?
He's got DirectX 12 installed.

Tech Support / Best PC laptop for modding?
December 19, 2017, 10:06:47 AM
I'm looking to purchase an older PC laptop so I can mod SWBF.
I've learned that Macs are moving away from 32 bit support, something that all the games I play use, thus I've decided to purchase a dedicated PC laptop to play my games (and so I can play SWBFII online through the GOG servers).
That being said I would love your help in figuring out the best one for my purposes.

The things I want to use this gaming laptop for are as follows:
1) Playing SWBFI and II at maximum graphics with no frame drop.
2) Modding SWBFI and II (mostly SWBFI though).
3) I'd like enough power to play games from about 5 years ago, like The Force Unleashed 1 and 2, Skyrim and Mad Max.

Now I don't have enough money to buy an alienware $1000 computer, I'm more looking for something ideally under $500 from a few years back. eBay will be my friend I expect.

Any help is appreciated! The most important thing is playing and modding SWBFI and II of course.

Hey guys, the SWBF Spy patches do not appear to work for me (I feel like they did at one point but I honestly can't recall).

SWBF1: I can see the server list but when I click to join I get an endless joining screen with the counting.

SWBF2: As soon as I try and join my game crashes. No error message or anything.

I am using my Mac port. [spoiler]http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?topic=7627.0[/spoiler]
I'm not sure if this patch is even compatible with it (I don't see why it wouldn't be).

Other Games / Republic Commando Online?
October 09, 2015, 03:29:06 PM
Hey guys, question for all ya'll.

Since RC multiplayer was powered by the same guys that powered SWBF multiplayer how might I play RC online?
Is there an .exe that I replace like with my SWBF games? Or am I stuck roaming the maps all on my lonesome?
All I've found online is by using IP addresses...
