Downloaded and I have to say I liked what I saw. You did a pretty good job on it. You already know what some of the members in the community suggested about it, but I don't want to repeat it. I am fine playing the mod the way it is. Definitely interesting compared to the other big ones.

Thanks for your comments, good to hear you like it! :D

I just fixed the "two-maps-issue" by renaming the mod from "M4E" to "ZM4". This also means the BF1 maps won't show up when you don't have my conversions pack installed.

Before I upload the new version to SWBF Files, I'd like to hear more suggestions what I should change or what new things you'd like to see in this mod. Please also report any bugs you find. :maulsaber:

Unfortunately BF2 has stopped working for me and I can't reinstall. I may have to clean the disk or it's seen it's better days. From what I remember I didn't see any bugs except the maps showing up that you mentioned.

I would just like to note that Rhen Var: Citadel crashes for me when I try to play it (I have no idea which era it was because I had a large M4 era mod playlist set to load maps in a random order). Yes, I have your conversion pack maps installed. I can play Cloud City and Platforms fine. I need to see what other maps work and don't work before I give a full analysis. Just thought I'd let you know that that one map I tried to play apparently crashes (one of my favorite maps from BF1 too... :(). Or, at least crashed once anyways. I'll take it out of my map rotation for now.

And yes, the two-maps-issue is bugging me a little. Thanks for fixing that, can't wait for the new version.

I will also note, Jabba's Palace is pretty fun playing as a Sand Trooper. :P

Hey Marvel, your mod needs customs vehicles and Fighters.

It's fine the way it is, to be honest. I think adding more vehicles is unnecessary in my honest opinion, all though....a custom Rebel tank in replacement of those speeders would be nice. Perhaps a T-1b tank. :P But I don't know, it's already fun and balanced the way it is at the moment. And movie accurate too without sacrificing balance and fun. And adds classic maps back into the fray with his conversion pack - yay. I know it's a suggestion, but I personally don't think it 'needs' anything else unless Marvel thinks there needs to be something else. Hope that doesn't sound like an attack or anything, just wanted to share my opinion on that matter.

I mean, helping me find out why Rhen Var: Citadel is crashing on me would be a plus too, cause I love that map. :P

I concur :plokoon:

I can help you with new effects and custom sounds. I am also modeling that sandtrooper rifle for you. I will release it in my Random asset release thread and pm you.

@RevanSithLord:
You're right, custom vehicles aren't that important, and I like it the way it is.
About the crashing Rhen Var, it doesn't crash for me, but I think it crashed in an older version, maybe that's the problem.

@THEWULFMAN:
Thank you very much for modeling that rifle, this will help me a lot! :thumbs:
I'm currently changing the sides for more variety, I'll also think about adding new effects and sounds.

Strange. I have the latest version. Perhaps I can double check...I could be wrong somehow. :P

And that Sandtrooper rifle would be nice. DLT-19, right? Or is it the RT-97C Heavy Blaster Rifle (Until 2008, it was named the MG-15 since, after all, it is based on that weapon, but finally was officially given the name RT-97C, and was the preferred rifle for Sandtroopers alongside the E-11)? Just so we're on the right page. I mean, there are, after all, tons of rifles in SW...heck even in reality. lol :P Just want confirmation so I don't look like I'm insane here. :lol:

Yes, it's the RT-97C. :wink:

EDIT: I uploaded the new version to Gamefront: http://www.gamefront.com/files/user/Marvel4

Awesome. To be honest, I had to find the MG-15 page on Wookieepedia, because I know the Sandtroopers used the DLT-19 (also a sniper variation dubbed the E-11s, which is the same model as the DC-15x, and of course all are based on the German MG-34) for sure, and I also remembered seeing a shot in ANH....at the time the Millennium Falcon took off from Docking Bay 94 where a Sandtrooper had an RT-97C aka MG-15 (honestly, the very first time I've seen this scene when I was smaller, I didn't even know what that blaster was. lol Until about two to three years ago, I had no idea the official name, really.). He looked up at the Falcon as it flew off, followed by several misplaced blaster shots and he was all like (and I'm imagining this in a Kyle Katarn-JO/JA version voice for some reason), "What the --?!".

Also, just downloaded that latest version. Will come back with any problems I may have.....unless I enjoy it so much I forget everything. :funny2: Will play it tomorrow. It's 2:30 AM and I need to be up before noon. :?
