Well, two questions, if I may...

• Is it possible to have objects go partially or completely transparent that have been placed in a map? Such as walls and etc...
• Is it possible to increase the ability to see just characters from a far distance? Such as, I'm trying to snipe somebody without the scope. But I can't see them from really far, and I know they are there because my reticle is red. Is there a way to make them become almost as visible as if they were just beside you?

Hey, why don't we take the SWBFGamers server, and switch its mission daily during the summer, on a  routine?
So, you know it's been 1.0 Style for a little while. Well, how about we organize something like this:

• Monday: Random Mod Map (Name The Map in the Server name and have the map found in the base here at SWBFGamers)
• Tuesday: Battlefront [All Maps] (Normal/Conquest Mode)
• Wednesday: Hallway Only [Cloud City]
• Thursday: 1.0 Style [Whatever maps it currently plays through...]
• Friday: Duck Hunt [Cloud City] (Do you remember that mode? I loved it. Sniping those dark troopers... lol)
• Saturday: Battlefront [All Maps] (Invinicibility Day)
• Sunday: Free For All [Cloud City, Mos Eisley]

I know this is more work than havign one server and one mission running all the time, but I think this would be a great idea for us. Fun, too!

Feel free to change what you like about this, I'm up for suggestions!

Have any of you seen this game?
Better question, have you heard of it?
It's called Overgrowth.
It's actually in Alpha and has been for a few months I believe. But let me tell ya, it has been a really fun play so far!
I haven't done its "campaign" yet, but basically you get to play as overgrown Rabbits and fight in these bloody, ragdoll-physics-like battles! It's insane, and extremely fun! Aside from the fighting, the game has some really nice landscapes and some decent graphics! Take a look at this screenshot I took just a few minutes ago:

[spoiler][/spoiler]

I really love the game, and for something that's still in Alpha, I think it's really going to be worth the buy when it's complete. I am only using the editor version, which you get access to by Pre-Order of the game, and so right now you can edit a lot of the game and even play as wolves, robots, dogs, cats... It's all in here. And it's really fun.
Go watch some YouTube videos! I think you will like it.

As discussed in a previous thread, which was meant to be under a different topic, the idea for removing some boards and possibly adding others to improve organization was presented.

I also believe Unit33 showed me a quote from LED recently... something about too many boards already.

I present to you my own layout-of-sorts for how I believe the boards could come to be arranged and hopefully much more organized, and not as confusing because these boards have become more broad, while still keeping in a good subject.

That makes a total of 9 boards that could be removed, under the idea I presented.

I hope you like this idea. Could be helpful later on. Feel free to suggest how we could make this idea better too, if possible.
Thanks for your attention!

I think our site needs a Star Wars and Off Topic forum instead of everything that fits in those coming together in the General forum.
Small addition, but hey, I think it would help with organization. Plenty of other forums I know generally try to have a separate Off Topic forum.

Hope you like my suggestion.

P.S.: If you're ever looking for any help moderating things, or would need somebody to moderate a new board, I'm always willing to help out the community.

If you had to ask, I would tell you that I believe I am going through one of the most emotionally and mentally stressful periods in my life... that I will ever face.

Every time I expressed my feelings before, I dragged it out to make my story the least bit interesting.
This time I won't be doing that... I'm not going to make everything sound worse than it is so I can gain pity and attention, because I don't care for more of those right now.

I'm letting you know that my road ahead will be up and down and... quite frankly, I don't know if I can handle it all.
I feel the agony in me. The ripping, shredding, slicing, tearing, butchering agony of my regrets.


I'll be sticking around here, I believe. How often, how long and how much, I don't know.

Well, I can't hold this. So I just... Give me a little pity, it might make me feel better... Just, not too much. You don't want to get attached to me, or I to you.... At least, for now.

I need some people to give me their opinions on some really good Star Wars: The Clone Wars TV episodes because I'm watching the series right now and am looking for some good episodes to skip around to.
I already skipped to the tear-jerking Season 5 finale. That really killed me inside... so sad...

Oh well. What did you guys think were some good episodes?

Hey there!

Does anyone have a Solo file to the background movie/video that plays during the Menu on SWBF1?
This is the movie/video that constantly repeats in the background with the blue grids and the little battle hologram/graph.

I need this file for some smaller projects, and I don't know where it is in my own files.

Much appreciated to get it alone and soon.

Hope I can pay you back somehow.
Thanks

I believe some areas around the world have already struck May 4^th. You know what that means...

It's... MAY THE 4^TH BE WITH YOU day!

Ahnok!
Zu'u lost meyz vothiz nau fau risulor called Thuum.org! Nii los nahlriimaar-kuyiz sikkel do eylok tol los ubaak entirely vau faal Dovahzul tinvok do faal Zuwuth Deykel kred.

Whoops, you probably don't know what that means! Here's the English:

"I have become involved on a cool website called Thuum.org! It is a community - driven dictionary of sorts that is based entirely off the Dovahzul language of the Elder Scrolls games."

That's right! If you've played Skyrim or any other Elder Scrolls game, you should know about how the dragons of the Elder Scrolls has their own language, Dovahzul.
I've begun studying it along with many other users. It's really fun and sounds cool; It's easy to learn because it's the same structure as English but with scattered letters; and it's helpful when you're hearing a dragon speak in Skyrim, but you have no idea what it's saying.

I don't know how many Skyrim fans we have but I thought some of you may enjoy this. I certainly have!
My name on the site is vokunvahlok, so shout at me if you see me on The Community Wall.

ALRIGHT GEEKS!
Time to help a fellow out once again.
But, on a different card...

Relationship struggles.
Yeah I said it.

What's the best way to get a girlfriend that's just as geeky as you but still looks pretty nice?
I don't want this:
[spoiler][/spoiler]

Not sure I came to the right place to ask but, I'm using my resources. I'm getting a bit desperate, I admit @_@...
Maybe it's just cuz Prom is a few weeks away...
No I've been struggling for awhile...

HALP. PLZ. D:

Hey there!

I've run into the problem of receiving the Nickname Changer for SWBF as a .RAR file and not as a .exe file as the little tutorial explains: http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=353

Can somebody please help me figure out how to fix this? I haven't modded my SWBF in awhile, so I don't know if it would still work even as an .RAR . Whatever the answer is, please help.

Thanks for reading.

No fooling around on this one, but it's April Fools' to all of you that tend to "celebrate," or better yet, "fool" around with it each year!

I was just announcing what day it was... how about we start this thread off with a good topic though? Post some really funny April Fools' pranks here.

**NOTE: This topic is not about the upcoming Spring/Easter season celebrated by many.

Over the past few days, I've gotten into a Frenzy over easter eggs in games. You know, the unexpected surprises developers add to games that usually are not a part of the game itself.

There's some hilarious easter eggs out there, and as it turns out, a lot of the ones being discovered by gamers recently are coming from Grand Theft Auto V. It just so happens that the game has a reoccurring alien theme which has lead to the discovery of 4 easter egg UFO's now and an alien frozen in some ice under a bridge. Ghosts, random developer faces, and even a giant beating heart connected by chains in the middle of the Statue of Happiness (which is like statue of liberty for GTA5) are just a few of the others.

Out of all these easter eggs, yet I myself have not seen one at all in Star Wars Battlefront. Am I missing something? Are there any easter eggs? Please tell me! I must know!

I feel like I haven't done nearly enough of my own contribution to the community here (in fact, I have created absolutely zero mods, maps, skins, etc...), So I've decided I will be making some Close Quarters maps from now on.
These maps are going to be really nice for all of the classes, while still mixing the feelings of Close Quarters affect.
I don't know if I can do it, but I will also try to look into having one or two of the maps without CP's, resulting in a basic Team Deathmatch effect.
I will release two maps simultaneously, and continue to update the pack with more maps as days go on. I likely won't do more than 6 maps total, though.
The maps will likely be based all off existing SWBF maps, such as taking the large building over the Carbon Freezing Chamber, and turning the inside of the giant area into a new Close Quarters map. However, that will be all for that map and there will be no access to elements outside.
The second map might end up being an extended version of the ice caves from Rhen Var, and I will be sure to include some giant rooms in the ice and some rooms that may only be accessible through Crouching or Crawling.

All the maps can be added to the AddOn folder, so they shouldn't replace any existing maps.
This is going to take me some time to make the first two maps, so wish me luck, please! 

If anyone wants to lend a hand with these maps packs, I'd be more than happy to let you help, although you'd be doing it for free. 

We're almost 2 weeks away from what's expected to be one of the most (if not THE most) celebrated sporting events in history!

Can you believe it? 30 Years ago, the legend Hulk Hogan competed in the ring, and 30 years later he's the host of the legendary Pay-per-view event that he helped create! And he's actually still in physical shape to perform!

Possibly the two most celebrated matches of the night will be Daniel Bryan VS The King of Kings, Triple H, in a long-standing rivalry match, which the winner will go on to face WWE World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton & Batista for the title later in the night. Also scheduled is a match between The Dead Man, The Undertaker, VS The Beast, Brock Lesnar, where Lesnar hopes to "conquer" The Undertaker's 21-0 Wrestlemania Undefeated Streak. Click here for a list of announced matches for the night

Also during the night is a scheduled 30-man battle royal in tribute to the late Andre the Giant, who many of you may have seen in the hit comedy movie The Princess Bride, as the character The Giant.
Don't forget to also tune in to the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony the night before Wrestlemania 30! This year's announced inductions include The Ultimate Warrior, Mr. T, Paul Bearer, and Jake "The Snake" Roberts!

One last thing, if you're going to watch Wrestlemania 30, don't purchase it alone, as it's almost $60 USD. Instead, purchase a one-month package to the new WWE Network for only $10 USD, in which you'll get access to both the Hall of Fame Ceremony and Wrestlemania 30, along with exclusive shows and other exiciting content only available with a WWE Network subscription!

I can't wait! Can you? 

Hey there, I hope we've got some TF2 gamers out there, because man-oh-man am I having fun with that game recently! Y'all should come back if you haven't been on it in awhile, and if you haven't even played it yet, then get it cuz it's free!

Be sure to tell my your Steam names if you play. Mine is Ultimachine, and we should hang sometime

I was hoping we could add a field under our profile to display our Tunngle ID (and possibly online status, if possible), since Tunngle is now more widely used.

While using Tunngle (after taking a massive break from SWBF), I've encountered the problem of getting onto servers, and when the game ends, I'm only being shown the ending screenshot and not being shown the Scorecard, and the Done and Awards buttons. I will sit for a few minutes, hoping it goes ahead and moves to the next map for me automatically like it used to, but it does not.

Can someone please help me out? I have not at all modified my files, so I'm lead to believe it's either a problem with my Tunngle/LAN or it's a problem with the servers. (If everyone else can use the servers fine, then it's definitely not that.)

EDIT: After a few more attempts, the problem only seems to be happening when I'm the only person in the server. I wouldn't call it fixed, though. I hope somebody out there may have an answer.

Recenty uncovered this: http://www.infoworld.com/t/intellectual-property/sopa-backers-seek-restrict-online-rights-again-time-outside-the-law-238424?page=0,0
The news was actually posted two days ago.
The last SOPA attempt seemed pointless, but I'm not sure if this one we should worry about a little.
