Announcing the 2.1 release of
Europa: Ground Assault

ModDB
Gamefront

Mods can upload it here too if they want.

See the readme for changes below. This release now also includes a remaster of my original release of the map from the late-2000s.

This map was released previously, but I have made a number of changes, mainly to the sides to make them consistent with my other maps that are upcoming.







2008 "Remaster"

It is working for me today...try again or let me know in detail what we can get for you.   

i've tried the link on the released assets thread, however the folder containing the misc models is empty and secretsociety doesn't want to load (not sure if the site is dead or it's just my internet being weird).

Third method is to make your own custom announcer for each era or an all era announcer.

Also here's a couple threads:
https://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?topic=13839.0
https://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?topic=6176.0

Both methods are fine, I think that mine may have an issue where you could run out of sound memory, but I haven't personally tried Dave's method.

You need to load the rebel sound file in your script.
Look at the section where it says:

--start soundlvl
ReadDataFile("sound\\tat.lvl;tat1gcw");    -- or "cw" in your case
--end soundlvl

Should be straight forward from here.

Hello all, just wondering how i'd go about implementing a cross era announcer (specifically getting the rebel one to work in clone wars).

thanks a bunch for any help, its much appreciated

Thanks man, really appreciate it! Glad you are enjoying the maps!

It's always kind of been a small player base, even during my first run of modding from 2008 to 2011 (most people had moved over to Battlefront 2), but Battlefront 1 was always my first love, so to speak. Admittedly, I will probably move on at some point, but I'd first like to release remakes/updates on all of my old maps and mods for SWBF1 from my original run, if for nothing else than to feel like I actually completed something and left no loose ends.

Man I remember playing your original Lava Fields map when I was in middle school back in 2009! What a trip to see you're still active.

Loved Geonosis Canyon. I'm really impressed by how well everything just works. Tatooine Desert Alliance is really, really solid too. Love the premise and the little junked R2 on the body pile. So much creativity on display - and with the skills to execute it!

I'm glad I randomly decided to revisit this game! It's a shame the playerbase is too small to appreciate what you've put out here.
