OLD POST
[spoiler]So I had this Idea for a mod, we all know about the SWBF1 Conversion Pack for SWBFII. But we don't have one yet.

So my idea is port the SWBFII maps as best as I can done to vehicles and such. And port the SWBFII sides as best I could like the new classes. One of the special classes would have to be cut since we can't fit all six sadly.

Thing is I don't want to waste my time, I'm getting an increasingly shorter amount of it lately. So I want to know people want this kind of mod and would play it.

Comments, Flames, Questions, Suggestions?[/spoiler]

Yes.  And I would be happy to help.

:cheers:

Sleepkiller, that sounds awesome! Just make sure all the maps can work without the mod in case we want to take it off

Cool, the more i hear about these kinds of things the more i want to start playing games again (maybe i'll give it a shot in the summer holiday).

IT`s a good idea,but,with this conversion coming out,map mods like Geonosis LPR will be able convert or just stock SWBFII maps?

I love the idea.

As for the extra unit class, it could be included, but only drop one for specific maps.
That way every unit could be visited, just not all at once.

btw, I'm still exploring Unleashed.
I didn't like clones till you released it.

I can do some sides, I figured out how to make the tanks and ships work just like in SWBF2. I had started a sides conversion but they were lost with my mod tools.  :'(

Glad to see everyone seems (Except for a random.) to like it. More specific replies.

Just grab my (and others) individual conversions in the download section.

Just stock SWBFII maps since I need the source files to work with.

Yeah, like on a map like Tantive cut the Jettrooper and replace it with the Clone Commander. And to the people who hate the flying Zappy, stop hating my favourite unit! I won't be cutting it. (Mainly becaue i want to mimic as closely as possible to SWBFII's sides.)


@Snake And Buckler
Cool, I'll see what there is to be done once I start work on it in about a weeks time.

Oooh that reminds me!

Is it in the code somewhere that dictates how the ARC caster conducts from enemy to enemy? Perhaps it could be increased to be more dramatic like in SWBF2?

Indeed there is, I intend on copying all the weapons as best I can.

Sleepkiller could you possibly tell what maps you are in the process of converting so that we can look forward to the release? like "I am working on a death star conversion" or something like that.

I am working on a death star conversion :P

Cool! Can't wait!  :tu:

First post updated with early test pictures. I know it's not much, I had planned for a video but xFire seems to be having problems and I have no internet data at the moment. (I've tried uploading it twice or was it three times.) I'll get you the video uploaded real soon!

My general thoughts on it. It feels like SWBFII when I play it, the units behave is much more SWBFII like. All the units are great fun to play.

I'm working on alliance in my spare time. I'm trying to get all the vehicles to work properly so I'll get some pics when I can.

I do appreciate the fact that you want to help out. But this early in the development it's easier if I just work by myself. I really do hope your not offended, it's just it would be hard to keep organized.

I'm not sure how its more complicated.. But alright, I'll do the alliance side apart from this project I guess.

Pics are awesome!!!! Btw sleepkiller I've had your dagobah conversion for a while now and I was wondering why the water in that map is all red ??? Is this a problem with my mac?

o.O I have absolutely no idea why the water would turn red. Pictures?

Next time I'm allowed to play I'll have pics, Friday most likely.

its red for me too

Do you two play with Low, Medium or High Water Settings?

The water is red, because it call .tga from SWBF2 assets, named "dag1_water", and it is realy red. You have to repaint it.

Hence why I was asking what Water Setting they were using. (I figured it must be that after I posted my original post.)

I have not bothered to change any of the visual settings so what ever is the default I use.

My settings are on all low. I tried it with high water particle settings and it was still red...
Sleepkiller check your PM :)

Sorry for double post.
Sleepkiller, I don't know how to upload pics of dagobah water. How do you do it? I tried to attach them but it said it couldn't.

Now worries I know what's causing it now.

Cool! patch for Dagobah then patch for TantiveIV (rebel skins)  :whistle:

Will you convert any more SWBF2 maps to perfection?

Just wait for this mod to be finished, I'm fairly certain you won't be disappointed  ;)

Well folks here is a old video and the new one.

Comments?

Wow! looks awesome!!!!!!!
2 comments though...

1) the recon droid should have to load a little before it self destructs...
2)In the second video the Geonosis dust plains has sonic turrents??? But you said that they didn't have those :blink:
Other than that  :tu: can't wait for the release!!

1. Yeah, this is pre-alpha stuff all things subject to be improved.
2. I was mistaken, I booted up my copy of SWBFII to find it did have those turrets.

Oh! Well can you make those changes for the rest of the community real quick? ;)

I think I'll send you my alliance conversion that I've done so far, it'll save you some time and you can change whatever you want. Sound good?

For the skirts of the clone arc and other characters you should just make them like they are to begin with(no waving around in the wind).
So don't take them off the people because clones and snowtroopers look stupid without the skirts. My opinion... 8)

Edit: Hey Sleepkiller, after you release this mod I'm gonna make a new topic called "things Sleepkiller promised to do" :P :happy: Then when you do it all SWBF will be the #1 game in the UNIVERSE!!!!! :cheer: :cheer:

They just don't appear, I haven't taken them off people. And converting them to static geometry is a huge undertaking. But I have a trick or two up my sleeve for them yet ;)

The conversion look's perfect, but what about fake explosions on Geonosis?

I have a couple of ideas about them but they are very impractical so I'm not implementing them.

When I try convert Mustafar, I am using invisible auto turrets for lava explosions...

Quote from: Sereja on May 01, 2012, 05:12:59 PM

Not a bad idea, in fact that's genius mind if I use that on Mustafar?

Yes, the explosions will look's perfect there.
Also, if you figure out, how to make rumble regions get to work, the conversion of Mustafar will be look's nice.

If you do have lots of fake explosions in mods or maps, release a version without the explosions for some us with our low graphics computers.  :P
How far are you to completing this revolutionary mod?

Edit: Hey Sleepkiller, on your kamino conversion people just stand around...Maybe add more units per team to the battlefield of something cause its kinda boring in Singleplayer.

What would this conversion of Mustafar that you are doing be different than the scum/strike one? That one seems pretty perfect to me...(would it have collapsable bridges?!)

A. I enjoy porting maps, all be it a tedious process at times.
B. I like having source files to work with.
C. It just doesn't seem right to put them in this when I can port them perfectly well myself.

Ok! :D I enjoy your conversions way better than anyone else's anyway! :)
Are you gonna try to fix the kamino AI pathing/ units on battlefield?

It's already fixed in this mod  ;)

OMG!!!! I need to know when you are going to release this!!!!!!!!! PLEASE TELL ME!!!! :tu:

Great answer :)

Seeing the high quality of your other work, I very much look forward to this.
Your conversions are well worth waiting for.

lol! I had this idea for the finale of this conversion, A space map! Not like these other ones where no one fights IN SPACE I mean with the works; turrents with AI in them to actually kill you and space combat! With crucial systems to destroy that act as reenforcement drainers when destroyed! In Clone Wars and GCW with converted vehicles and everything! Is this possible to do or have you had this idea for a long time... :cheers:

that's my dream  :P .

That would be an incredible finale.

What do ya think SleepKiller? You got some demand! ;)

Sorry to double post but I wanted Sleepkiller to see this:
I played your SWBF renewed demo recently and I was wondering if you were going to include the rage the magnaguard has that hurts everyone in its radius for all the special units and the slicer which does negative damage on enemy vehicles for the pilot...

I just can't balance out that stuff since I can't get the buffs that other commanders use ingame. So no they won't be making an appearance. And I don't have enough weapon slots for the Slicer.

Will it be online compatible like your SWBF unleashed mod? Or will it be a replacing mod...

Online compatible.  :cheers:

 :o
How far are you to completing in percentage? Hopefully 99.9%! :P

EDIT: What map are you converting now?

This project is suspended until further notice. It maybe that that notice will never come, sorry to anyone who was waiting for this.

 :o NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! :'( :'( :'(
Could you release the fixes for certain conversions then like Dagobah(red water), Geonosis(sonic turrents), Tantive IV( right rebel skins),and any others? Along with a side mod for what you have done so that we have something because I love that dagobah map with the BF2 sides...
Please at least release the fixed maps and any other conversions. Could you do that?

What's this red water issue? Try messing with the graphical settings. Because I don't see it and I'm playing it on the Mac too. :panic:

What Sereja says. It is red on the Dagobah that is playable in both eras. It isn't red on the dagobah with BF2 sides because I think SleepKiller repainted it.

Hey SK are you still wOrking on this mod?

Your answer.
