Is there any way to make a Rhen Var server with Empire and Republic? I know you can't without people having to download it, but can you make a server that people have to download somthing to get on?
Thanks
yes. This is easily done with a mission.lvl mod using Battlebelks mission level tool.
First, get the tool:
http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=319
Then let us know if you need help.
user and server will need the new mission.lvl file
I downloaded, and extracted, what do I do after that?
Here is my clones vs empire lua for cloud city.
Study it and make similar changes for rhen var.
Pay particular attention to the AddunitClass section.
When you make the changes, double click on munge.bat. If you use
windows 7, you will need to set compatibility mode for XP.

If I just made it clones Vs. Clones would other people be able to play without downloading any thing?

Yes (the server would need the new mission.lvl file, but players would not).
They units would look exactly alike for each team, but the reticule would turn red for units on the enemy clone team.
Alright thanks, I have one last question, every time I try to mod the .Lua for bespin nothing changes, am I modding the wrong file or somthing? I change the count so defenders have 0 units, but when I play the server the teams are equal.
I keep editting .LUAs then munging them then posting them in server file, but nothing happens!?
mmm, make sure you are changing bes2a.lua and bes2r.lua if you want cloud city.
You will also need to make sure your munge.bat file is actually working. It should pop up a command window and you should see a bunch of things scroll by.
If it does not work, see the first post about setting compatibility mode for windows XP.
Finally, check the date of the file contained in the _LVL_PC folder of Battlebelks mission builder. It should be today's date if it worked.
Thanks, I'll try that.
Darn, every thing works but when I make server nothing changes.
Post your lua here. I will make a mission file for you, and you can try it.
