What would need to be done in order to view/edit the files? Like, how did it get figured out for Battlefront?

Hey everyone, sorry for bumping an old thread but I figured I'd introduce myself as well as let you guys know that I am definitely interested in this game and in the project of modding it.

I think the multiplayer, and more specifically the Conquest multiplayer mode, has a ton of potential for improvement and optimization and is generally a really unique and interesting game mode. As a quick reminder, Conquest was the mode where your aim is to destroy the opposing base, either directly or by capturing outposts across the map which produce units that you can order to do the dirty work for you. There are many (many) flaws in the vanilla game and it is quite bare bones, comprising of only 4 playable maps and a handful of playable vehicles. However, it's such a strange and unique hybrid of genres (3rd person tank shooter, MOBA, RTS) that it's a shame that a more polished, fleshed out game of its type hasn't been made yet. I highly recommend going back and messing around with it if you haven't in awhile. I'm open to thoughts/criticisms/questions about it.

Also, I have no experience with coding or modding. I am willing to put in as much work as humanly possible to make this a successful project, though. Hoping to hear from you guys, either here or via DM. Peace
