1. Open your pc server directory. 'Rename battlefront.exe' to 'battlefrontpcserver.exe'.
2.Highlight the three to five files 'battlefrontpcserver.exe', 'battlefront server.exe', 'battlefront server.ini', and optionally 'PC DedServ Help.rtf' and 'SW Battlefront Server Software EULA.doc'. Right click on one of the files and click cut.
3.Open your battlefront(the actual game) directory, and then the game data folder.
4. Make sure the gamedata folder window is active and hold control then press v, or click paste on the right click menu
5.Run then close 'battlefront server.exe' . This updates the working directory settings.
6.Open battlefront server.ini in notepad
7.'APP_FILENAME=' appears twice. Replace the text immediatley after it (battlefront.exe) with battlefrontpcserver.exe in both places.
8.verify that the lines with APP_WORKING_DIR= both say 'C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront\GameData'(if you have a different install directory, than alter the text to match) and if they don't change them to it.
9.open 'battlefront server.exe' and use as normal. Update your shortcuts and enjoy the extra megs.
I made an executeable that does the above tweak for you(uninstalling the old dedicated server is up to you).
Note:If your battlefront is installed in a directory other than the default(drive letter does not matter), you'll have to type it in manually when the time comes.
This is what the Stand Alone Server Looks like. It uses much less system resources than the actual game. Also, more options are available, spawn time, more players can join, etc. Also, you can manually turn off auto aim and increase framerate cap for clients. It normally take about 100mb of space. This tweak takes it down to about 10, and every mod map installed for SWBF is installed for the server!PC Dedicated Server SpaceSaver Edition v1.3

How to Fix the Problem With Maps Undetected by the Stand Alone Dedicated Server
Make a new text document, place it in the Folder of the Undetected Map (the one with Addon.script in it) and simply type this into it.
"CW,[mapnamehere],[mapfoldernamehere]c,CIS,republic,350,350
GCW,[mapnamehere],[mapfoldernamehere]a,alliance,imperial,350,350"
Quotations are not to be put in file, but everything in between them should.
Change both [mapfoldernamehere]'s to the folder your map is in in the addons folder(ie:tat3) Note the C and A found immediatley after the folder name.
Replace [mapnamehere] with the name of your map(as it appears in addon.script. Open addon.script in notepad and scroll right. You'll quickly find the proper name.)
The numbers are the default ticket count.
If the map has a new side(I Rends' Bounty Hunters Maps and Lord Bandu's 'The Phantom Menace', then in 1.2 it won't work with the stand alone server, but in v1.3 it does, just remember not to change the side names. They must always remain the same for it to work.
If you need help understanding these instructions, then please ask for it. If
anyone wants to correct me on this, then I will shoot them with an assualt droid rocket. . .er I mean correct myself.
Too Save You Time, Premade Mapinfos From me!
Installation:Each mapinfo is storded in a folder whose name matches that of the one in the addon folder. Simply extract and move into the addon folder of your server. If you have renamed all of your map folders, then you'll have to edit the mapinfo file to reflect those changes.
Notes:Bandu's Phantom Menace, and Rends Bounty Hunters do not work with v1.2 or lower.
If you see a map that should not be in this download, becuase it comes with a mapinfo and I accidently included it any way, or if there is a map you want added, or you any other comments, please, please post.
