Title: Custom Maps without Custom Units
Post by: Cyber on November 25, 2025, 02:12:24 PM
Hey guys, I've gotten back into this game with friends and been loving the custom maps. My only question is if there is a way to replace the custom units back to original vanilla units? There are some great maps out there but not really wanting the custom classes they come with. Ive had some success on some maps replacing certain files with vanilla ones but it comes with some bugs like no heroes or missing classes. Hate to be the one to ask :c

If the original modder is around, they could reply and replace with the original units.

However, if that wasn't their intent, and there's no source files, then it's likely harder than the effort it's worth.

Think of it this way, that was a design decision by the modder and they wanted the map to be played with their custom classes.  :shrug:

If you are familiar with modding already, you could take a look at this thread: https://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?topic=14877.0 (https://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?topic=14877.0)
However, this will take a bit longer than 5 minutes  ;)

If you aren't familiar with modding, and you want to share the map(s) name(s), there is a high probability that you will receive some help.

Go ahead and post links to a couple of maps that you would like standard units on...the holiday break is coming up and if I would ever have time, it would be in the next 4-5 weeks.

What I can do is a mission.lvl mod that may or may not end up with what you want.

Hey, thank you for taking your time to help out, yeah just the vanilla classes and heroes is all I'm wanting from these maps. These are a couple maps, sorry if it's a lot.

I'd rather you didn't. Especially with Elite Squadron - the entire thing is intended to be played with those custom classes.
