So I have the Conversion Pack installed on my copy of Battlefront 2 and it's great. It's nice to see a whole slew of new heroes to play around with. However, my favorite Star Wars character is Kyle Katarn and he's only useable in one map for Conquest, that being Yavin 4 Arena as far as I know. I did later install the Battlefront Extreme mod which adds him to the Kamino and Mustafar maps, but having all these different mods (Conversion Pack, Extreme, Dark Times 1, Zero) installed can easily hit the 500 mission limit as well as making the menu a bit messy. The Era section on some maps can have the options go out of the box, for example.

So I was hoping to be able to tweak some of the other maps to add Katarn in Conquest mode (the mode I prefer playing) and then be able to uninstall Battlefront Extreme (not that it's bad, I just want to clean up my game a bit).

Unfortunately, it seems to my understanding browsing that the only way to properly mod map files is the LUA files, which I can't find for the Conversion Pack. I tried just Hex editing the mission.lvl file directly, but that crashes the game. I tried adding Katarn into the base game's maps using the LUA files provided by the mod tools, but that also doesn't work. I'm at a loss here because the files for this particular hero is part of a mod and I have no idea how to mod him into other maps.

This is my first post here, so I'm not exactly sure where to put this topic, but I would like some help. I tried everything I could think of, tried Googling everything to see what I was doing wrong, but I have no idea what I'm doing.

If any of you guys could help, it'd be very appreciated. Thanks.
