I will keep a list here of the maps I upload as PC conversions for the March 12th Xbox build, also noting any issues with them:

Demo (March build) Sounds from Side files

http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=1555

In this download are the decompiled CIS_snd and REP_snd files included with the leaked March 2004 build of the game.  Many of the sounds have no names and are left with their hex representations.  They have already been converted to standard 16 bit wav format.  There are sounds included in the world files but I haven't gotten around to all of them yet.

I would like to take this time to announce the "SWBFgamers 1.4 Userpatch" (working name). This patch is NOT supported by Lucasarts/Pandemic/Disney/GOG-Steam.  This is a large scale mod intended to improve the user experience of Battlefront 1 and also to implement new content for gameplay.  What does this all include, you might be asking?  Read on and find out!

• New maps and at least one new era integrated directly into the shell
• New and improved sides - new units, more heroes, new vehicles (and fixes to cut ones)
• Restored features to the shell: Tutorial videos, unlockable art
• New options ingame and in the shell to better customize your experience
• Galactic Conquest improvements!

As a modder, there is a lot to look forward to as well.  Things that may have been daunting before should now be done with ease. There are a couple external programs planned to make life a breeze so that you can focus on creating content, not fighting with the scripting. Configuration files will be used to expedite modding processes that haven't gotten enough love over the years.

• New campaigns
• New/edited galactic conquest scenarios
• Easy era additions

But that's not all.  There are other plans in the final phases that will expand the user experience further:

• Mod Shop (Centralized asset integration)
• New dedicated server software
• Wrapper programs for the exe
• A patching system

My desire is to try to make this patch comprehensive, but also to try to maintain basic online compatibility with clients who don't use this patch. This is a fairly ambitious undertaking, but with time and effort, we can make this happen.  We are at the stage where volunteer help from modders will be asked for, even for testing (because I sure make my fair share of mistakes).  Post here or PM me for more details or if you have a desire to become involved.

Current stage: I have reversed all the Steam/GOG scripts to the best of my ability (pretty close to 100% munged accuracy).  The completion of this initial stage allows this patch to work for EITHER version of the game, SWBFspy 1.2 or Steam.  However, there are some features that may only be implemented in SWBFspy 1.2 or Steam/GOG due to technical or logistical limitations of either version.

Questions? Concerns? I'm open to suggestions as well.

https://github.com/phantom567459/BF1LuaDC

I have been working on a basic lua 4.0.1 decompiler.  Right now it can take simple lua bytecode files (which have to be manually crafted from .script files and then run through luac -l, if you want some help let me know.).  There is an example addme.txt file included to show what it should look like after you run these commands.  There is no release build yet, so if you want to try it, you have to compile and run from source (and edit the filename variable).

Some stuff is still hard coded and clunky, it's pretty early stages but I'm extremely pleased with where it's come to at this point.  Attached to this post is the decompiled geonosis.script file that is included with the Xbox demo but obviously never used.

This topic has been moved to SWBF2 Modding.

Common and Shell Builder (2020 Revised)

http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=1552

I reuploaded these not long ago, but with the release of the Steam/GOG multiplayer update, it made sense to do this.  If there are any errors, let me know.

Same as the traditional builders - edit your files, save them, then munge.  Your compiled file will be in _LVL_PC.  How this differs is that you need to select a version to munge for.  Mungeshellgog.bat will select the correct files for the GOG/Steam version of the game.  MungeShell will select the correct files for the disc version.  Both should work out of the box with no edits.

I recommend if munging for different versions you run cleanXXX.bat (you should probably do this after every munge anyway).


FOR GOG/STEAM VERSION:
Current version (same download link has been updated) has ALL the shell and common scripts for the GOG version correct to probably 99% accuracy.  The "Premunged" folder is still included in case of emergency, and still will automatically take precedence over any other version of a file for GOG to prevent breakage (but it's currently empty. Make sure you are using the correct munge for your version.

Battlefront 1 Sky Changer

http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=1548

I made this to accompany AnthonyBF2's map pack with higher sky ranges.  This can edit the NearSceneRange, FarSceneRange, FogColor, and FogRange of any compiled map LVL file.

Until a patch is issued, this is as close as you're going to get to fixing some mod maps that no longer have source. 

I have managed to put a dedicated server called "Mods@SWBFGamers.com" on Steam.  Feel free to play on it if you have the Steam version, put our name out there.

I will freely warn you, it is not as stable as SWBFSpy, and does not work with the disk versions.  SWBFSpy will stay up for the time being to support those versions.

I took the forum down for maintenance and at least stopped the inability to post, however, I still have yet to find the root of the problem.

Thank you for your patience.

BF2 Common.bnk Builder

http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=1542

I made this using my Sound Extractor - all the files generated are through it.  You should just be able to hit "commonmunge.bat" and generate a common.bnk in the same folder

I have made a list of hashes in hashrev.csv that I have manually renamed in the essence of usability. Their original names are probably lost to the depths of time or I just haven't found them yet (more likely).

It does not come out exactly the same as the stock common.bnk, but it is close enough that nobody should notice.  If there are any bugs, let me know.

Combined Common and Shell builders

http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=1541

Couldn't find these hosted on the site, reuploaded.

DP's Common.bnk Builder

http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=1540

Does exactly what it says.  Rebuilds the main common.bnk for BF1 in Data\_LVL_PC\Sound\ 

http://www.mediafire.com/file/0daoyl77z13fl7x/TutAndBonusVids.7z/file
These are my conversions of the tutorial videos that are used in my shell/common update.  They are extracted from the PS2 version and went through a series of steps to get them to be easily placeable ingame.

I have upgraded us to SMF 2.0.17.
If you notice any issues, please let us know.  I believe I have everything up and running as before, but I may have missed something.

I'm not totally sure what the goal of this really is, other than to satisfy my curious nature, so here it goes.
If you've been keeping up with DP's releases, I released two compilations of sounds from the betas back in October:
http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=1520 (PS2, late demo)
http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=1521 (Xbox, early demo)
and here I posted a video of getting the PS2 demo menus accessible just recently:

Edit: new vid showing GC:

The PS2 is really the only one I can work with as I have no access to an Xbox currently, nor any experience with it.
I have made some other interesting finds that weren't really clear in the video and aren't utilized in the stock game:

• Different campaign screen and VO, but they are still functional
• Multiplayer GC placeholder (doesn't work right, sends you to a Single Player GC session).  MP settings are not functional (Launch doesn't do anything, yet)
• Choice of attacker in instant action and GC (instead of just two mission eras, there are 4, which is relevant).
• Some different localization (Rhen Var: Citidel and Rhen Var: Stronghold)

Example of bullet 3 (Choice of attacker): You are attacking Rhen Var: Harbor in Galactic Conquest as the Empire.  Ok, it's normal, you have an AT-AT, you win.  Later on the Rebels attack Rhen Var in a valiant attempt to recapture it, they are now team 1, and have a hovernaut at their disposal.  This behavior can be replicated in the stock game with a shell\missionlist.lua update and mission.lvl update (OR probably just a quick check to see who is the "official" attacker, untested).

I am able to get a new shell into the demo, kinda.  The file formats are the same so for maps that don't exist, I can drop the final maps ingame. The capabilities are lower (like the AT-AT disappears on Rhen Var because of limits on-screen).  I am fascinated with this demo (although I'd like the Xbox one more, because earlier), even though there are some issues with it.

Questions? Ideas?

Local Side Builders

http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=1535

It's time for me to show off my newest project:
https://www.twitch.tv/videos/520770317
https://youtube.com/v/M9aHzflIMTk?t=2474
https://youtube.com/v/M9aHzflIMTk?t=2474;allowFullScreen="true"
What this project does:

• Takes all the stock sides in BF1 and randomly selects 5 of them
• Selects a random bonus for each team
• Some vehicle randomization
• I have incorporated it into a custom campaign, as not to interfere with stock maps
• Online compatibility

Future plans:

• Random difficulties, based on unit selection and AI difficulty
• Preset randomizations - Want to duke it out with all rocketeers?  Or Snipers vs Rocketteers?  Or locals only?  Or use the preset seeding system that I'm going to create.
• Full sound support, including cross era/local unit VOs and sfx
• Extensibility - add entries for your own custom side to make it your own
• More to come!

Comments and suggestions are appreciated.

BF1 PS2 shell munger

http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=1526

This does as it says, it munges the PS2 shell.
I will be updating this download, but I know there are some people that wanted to get started working with it.  There are a bunch of files that still need reconciled but it is usable.  Please read the Readme to get started with your PS2 shell mods.

The website is still browseable, but we are working on the errors between SMF and an apparently recent update to the PHP on the host.  Please be patient.
