Are there any other Battlefront modding sites out there? GameToast isn't working out too well for me.

The Battlefront section on FileFront forums is the only other place I know of, and it looks pretty inactive.

Other bf modding sites? Whats wrong with GT. The only other one I know about that is still active is Vader's Fist/501st Legion

with almost 2000 posts here what isnt working out for you? by gaming standards swbf 1 & 2 are ancient barnacles on a sunken ship not sure what else you could need , or you just bored of gt site, too many pms from kiddies or no help from better modders?

You can't find a better site than this, there's a wealth of information on this game that stems back to 2004, or should I say 1969

I Concur :plokoon:

My very good friend who lives down the street mods other games, and he has not see to many communities as good as GT. I go on the net each day, GT is the first site on my todo list.
He also said there are not too many games as fun to mod as BF1+2

btw, isnt asking if there are other BF sites, on GT like stabbing someone in the chest, then spitting on their face , your betraying us, AND telling us that we are not good enough. Just joking, no really just joking

I don't know what you could mean when you say GT isn't working out for you. If you're really set on finding another BF modding site, I know a few members here run their own forums (Xavious and Lephenix_dor), but they have very little activity and the communities are comprised essentially of a handful of GT members.

There is mine

I've just been wanting to find multiple places to post the same question.

Early last month, I downloaded the BF2 mod tools, hoping to make a mod made of my own models (except for player models). At first, I wasn't able to get any of my models to work properly. I played around with some stuff throughout a few days, and still I couldn't get my models to have the textures on them in ZeroEditor. Afterwards, I came to GT and made a thread asking for help. It's been 16 days since I made that thread, and I still haven't been able to start on my mod, so I'm hoping to find more places to ask for help so I have a greater chance of getting my problem solved as soon as possible.

Thanks for posting the sites. I'll check them out.

All the sites we used to link to have gone offline and their domains expired so from what I have found... there arent many places to get specific swbf engine related mod issues resolved.you can always try other similar 6 year old games that have mod sites and see if like minded people can help you maybe.

If you are talking about this thread, you never even stated the depth of your problem. The problem is that you made a thread with an incomplete explanation and then followed up by asking for as much information while giving very little feedback in return. Play around a little with the information you're given, and most importantly, please share the full story.

That said, you are likely to only frustrate yourself trying to ask this question on another site, since it involves SWBF2-specific asset pipeline information, in the way of a custom tool created for mesh importing.

and Thus, Mav says the wisest thing that could be said.

What other information is there to give, besides what modeling program I'm using? (Which was stated later on in the topic.)

It couldn't be a "I've been trying to fix this for eons with every possible solution I can think of listed below" kind of topic, because I had really no idea where to start, so it seemed like there wasn't anything else to post except the "MshEx requirement" quote that already had my question in it.

You could:
-Specify your problem (what is happening in-game)
-Take pictures (ingame, ZE)
-Tell what specific steps you've tried
-Address specific parts of suggestions that you've tried (i.e. redress posts aimed at providing you instruction)
-Try a basic test model
-Post your model's hierarchy (in a scene tree view)
-Upload the model itself for checking
-Mention what specific threads you've already looked at

There are plenty more, but the key is providing clear information. In the topic linked above, you simply posted a question and then said "answer it" without any context provided as to why there was a problem.

Thanks for the advice.

I guess I'll edit that stuff into my OP later, but I feel like people have probably already looked at the thread and decided it's not something they'll come back to.

Just shadow-bump your topic (copy the contents of the last post, delete the last post [yours], and then post a new post with the information from the previous last post and your new information) for sake of clarity. If you have legitimate clarifying information to add to a topic and it's been unanswered for a while, it's totally okay to bump your topic the way indicated above.

Mav has done it again just listen to his advice and im sure some one will help like they have helped me multiple times!
offtopic-GT FTW!
