With your permission, I would like to upload it here too--

I believe that this is often due to video card issues.  Try turning your video options up or down, and see of that helps.

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

This mod uses the stock map Bespin Cloud City.
Each side has only one unit.  The weapons have been changed to pistols only,
concussion grenades, and health/ammo packs.

The purpose of this mod is to help players practice using the pistol.

You know, I think maybe we need some practice for this thing.  I will put Hoth up early on Friday Night if anyone wants to try some tactics

This is a server side mod made by hex editing the PC dedicated server software.  I believe it
will work if hosting a MAC or PC *dedicated* server--meaning the host can't play using this map.

Bespin Cloud City has been modded to make all of the CPs non-capturable.
Since the CPs are always even, there will be no ticket drain.

No Capture Cloud City

Here is all about how to make CPs non-capturable:
http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?topic=3156.0

There are not a lot of modders left, so I expect that it would be difficult to get someone to make a mod for you these days.  I would suggest first asking Bamdur if he would share his mod, then learning about modding on your own.

The internet is swithing to a new address protocal called IPv6.

Does anyone have any ideas on how this might affect SWBF, if at all?

For PC servers that go through Gamespy, the answer is that you must not have your server be sitting being a router/firewall.  The NAT translation does not work.

This was not always this way, but a change last year in the way Gamespy does things messed it up.

Read this thread I posted long ago on the gamespy "support" forum:
http://forums.gamespy.com/action_gaming/b50683/20209837/p1/?14

So, if you don't want your server to ping at 9999, then don't use a firewall or router.  Unfortunately, this is not practical in most situations.

I've done mission mods, some hex edit mods, and some side mods.

My last mod was a pistols only mod.

welcome!
