Hidden/Spoiler:
The good news is that it's changes have been merged into the upcoming Version 3.0, an alpha version (I'll try to tidy it up to BETA standards, either fixing or (temporarily?) cutting some incomplete features I will post to this WIP thread in the coming days.

An Egotistically Humble Narrative
I'd describe this map as possibly the most advanced cooperative campaign map and race map for Battlefront 2. The quality is not up to the exacting standards set by Maveritchell, but it's not something to laugh at.
The campaign may lack a solid game play design plan - the initial purpose, currently abandoned (for now) was to have conquest with animated spawns, and then it was to make conquest style or objective style game-play work on a map that was designed for the Race mode, and artistically and without any initial planning either. It was intended to have voice over work and new sound effects to compliment the visuals, but I haven't got sound working yet.
Since then it has become somewhat of a 'Tech Map' where I've experimented with cinematic style ambiance and effects (Cinematic perhaps being too generous, it's not very polished) and whatever modding I felt like doing, most recently I learned Blender to cut down on some of my noobish use of stock props.
This is why I am releasing this. I've spent far too many hours playing this mod, and devoted quite a bit of time working on it, for it to remain unreleased. I can't claim this to be the product of 3 years continuous effort, even by modder standards (my HD crashed ~ May 2008 and - hell, this mod even taught me how to recover a hard drive with a failed circuit board - and I didn't get the files back until summer 2009. )
It is finally time for this map to serve some purpose, so I can concentrate on my future, beginning with dedicating more time to my studies. (I'm also cutting down on gaming. Maybe If I tell the internet that I'll do it)
Now if Clone War Campaign mode is this map's imperfect crown jewel, Race Mode is it's simple yet more or less complete raison d'être. No AI, though - you may recall I tried to create some this spring, I put that on hold and the only fruit of that labour is a jerky 'ghost' to race against/follow. But it does have a HUD element showing you what place you are in...
Once posted, maybe I will abandon this project, knowing that maybe a few people downloaded it and got some fun out of it. Maybe if it is well received, and people post bug reports, it will help me to work quickly and effectively on it and I will post updates, but don't feel obliged to post anything, I am aware of many of the bugs and positive/constructive feedback does not guarantee further work.
A little Dark I know...
A better look... Well, actually I prefer the night.
Wait, why should I download this?
Did I mention that it has about every game mode, and each has working 'E/Action' key operated Elevators?
A fuller feature list maybe to come, but the old threads and vids have some info.
Oh and maybe I'll post the map.

Alpha Version Download
(alpha only because Beta's are supposed to be release candidates without known bugs/rough edges - this map is version THREE alpha, as in hundreds of hours of work over 3 years)

Release Notes:
- Unofficial patch or any ingame/core.lvl mod which shows Campaign and Race mode is required
- This might not work. I've been using several mods, don't want to test on a clean install. I think I cut its dependencies on the Conversion Pack's old? republic legions, but if they are there it will use them. (rep212th.lvl, rep327th.lvl, rep146.lvl in your global SIDE folder)
- As of this post, and probably of release time, Campaign mode has some crash bugs. If you crash during 'Area 2', and you saw the large craft go boom, theres not much point in a second playthrough, 'Area 3' is currently underwhelming.
- CTF is broken: 1flag ctf is out of commission, 2 flag GCW has no vehicles which it needs, might fix later versions. So go ahead and try Race, Campaign, Hero and I enjoy GCW conquest probably because I spend so much time testing Clone Wars.
