Basic mission script mod and stock map mod made by "{PLA} Led".

This mod uses the custom map Hoth Escape modified for CW era units with GCW era vehicle spawns.


How to use this mod:
The mission file is located here:
C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront\GameData\AddOn\hoth6\Data\_lvl_pc

or in the appropriate location for MAC users.

Backup the original file first.  Place the mission.lvl file in this release in its place.



What it does:

-play as CIS and REP pilots.

known issues:

-I am not an sound expert.  The choices were to have gun sounds from the clone/cis and no
sounds from the xwings, or have xwing sounds and no gun sounds.  I chose the xwing sounds.
While not impossible to do, it would require more downloads to get all sounds working.


-The flyers are still GCW era units (x-wing, tie, etc).  In the end, I suppose this make the map essentially
the same as the original GCW era by rends.  Rends did not define flyers for the CW era in his map.
To put CW era flyers in the map would require the release of his map assets (which are not known
by me to be available) or it would require a hex edit of his map or a side recompilation, both of which
would take a more extensive involvement.
