Looking at the diferences between the PS2 and PC version
ps2 has an elf instead of an exe
ps2 lvl files are tiny compared to PC fles.
there is a TEST folder containing TEST.lvl, and TESTH.lvl on the PS2 disc. Not in my PC BF1 folder.
Speculation:
If we could extract the files from the lvl, they would be munged, but still useable to a degree.
Could just lower quality graphic and model assest acount for the diff in side lvl file size? what else could it be?

PS2 4,774,568 bytes
PC 68,195,284 bytes
re bf2 tools and filefront. I've noticed that you have to refresh or go back to the page periodicaly. It tells you it can't find it, then you go back and it's there. (sometimes)
http://www.gamefront.com/files/4794395/swbattlefrontiimodtools.exe (worked just now)
When I took an intrest in this I got everything I could find and piled it onto a work drive. The file hoarding was spurred by watching the id1 folder on public ftp's shrink and disappear altogether, so I thought I'd better do it now than end up in a "where is this asset" thread with my hand out later.
Turns out I was already to late for a lot of the early BF mod stuff.
