I recently purchased SWBFI off amazon for $8 and got it in the mail yesterday. I've been attempting to install these patches but the client always pops up "Star Wars Battlefront not Found" Please reinstall the game from the original CD-ROM and try again. :?

1.3 patch is a beta version, it only will work if you have the original CD version of the game (not the DVD versions).

If you want to play 1.3 beta, check on ebay for the CD version of the game

this one might be it, but I would suggest you double check:

Can't install it, I bought the DVD version. :( Need to purchase the CD version later on for it to work.

The DVD version is 1.2, so that patch is pre-installed.

Ah, ok. Looked at the 1.2 patch features on LucasArts.com, it's pretty nice. Is there a way to allow fullscreen in this game? I play on a 1366x768 laptop monitor. (Come to think of it, I really haven't checked the settings, I'll look at them later today)
