Please note that this is a BETA release. There will be changes!(but if you download this, the next download will be much much smaller
)
SWBFgamersUpdate 1.0 is now prepared for public release.
http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=410Only one stock file (mission.lvl) will be changed in your game installation. No other files are modified. It will not affect any standard on-line or single player games in any way.
What it does:
provides new maps, new units, new game play modes.
It must be installed correctly to run. Nothing goes into Addon, so there is no map limit, and nothing
needs to be un-installed (unless you need room on your hard drive).
-----------------------------------------
To Install:
After you extract the file:
STEP 1)Drag the folder called "SWBFgamersUpdate1.0"
into this location
C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront\GameData\Data\_LVL_PC\
so that it looks like this:
C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront\GameData\Data\_LVL_PC\SWBFgamersUpdate1.0
NOTE: Windows Vista or Windows 7 may look different, like:
C:\Program Files (x86)\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront\GameData\Data\_LVL_PC\STEP 2)go into this folder
C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront\GameData\Data\_LVL_PC\SWBFgamersUpdate1.0\001-modified mission.lvl file for SWBFupdate 1.0
and click on
InstallMission.bat (note: some people report that the batch file does not work for them; if this is the case, use the manual install method below)OR you can manually copy and paste the mission.lvl file from
C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront\GameData\Data\_LVL_PC\SWBFgamersUpdate1.0\001-modified mission.lvl file for SWBFupdate 1.0\
to
C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront\GameData\Data\_LVL_PC\
Now you can join the SWBFGamersUpdate Servers for the public Beta test.
to go back to your game like is was,
click on UseOriginalMission.bat located
C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront\GameData\Data\_LVL_PC\Copy of SWBFgamersUpdate1.0\002-Backup of original mission.lvl file\
OR you can manually copy and paste the mission.lvl file from
C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront\GameData\Data\_LVL_PC\SWBFgamersUpdate1.0\002-Backup of original mission.lvl file\
to
C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront\GameData\Data\_LVL_PC\
------------------------
Then, look on-line for a SWBFgamers.com server that has "x" as the era.
It will say you are missing the file, but join anyway, if you have the update installed.
Here is the patch 1 for playing in jetdroid server:
http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=419Edit: Thanks for the beta testing.
Fixed Items:
There are some issues that I have been able to fix already. Players could not jump on Mygeeto. I have fixed that.
There was an issue with clones vs empire that made it not playable. Fixed it.
-------------------
Items that won't be fixed:
-issue with maps such as out of bounds issue on Felucia and various collision issues on maps, AI pathing, etc.
Since we are using converted SWBF2 and user made maps (credits are included in the download), there is nothing I can do to fix these things.
(There is also a lack of victory timer in Mygeeto, but tickets still drain.)
----------------------
Items that will be worked on:
-I have ideas for about 100 more missions, and some more sides. If anyone wants to help, let me know.
-Sleepkiller will see if he can localize map names for us.
