THis mod will replace the republic side with the shock troopers seen with Emperor Palpatine in the end of Episode 3. This mod doesn't add any new weapon models, just new skins. But there is, however, one new weapon, the Heavy Blaster Rifle, carried by the Clone Commander. This rifle is as powerful as the elite rifle but fires as a slow-auto, the Sniper Rifle has been improved, as it fires faster, and is also a slow-auto. The Clone Marine has been changed to a normal white trooper, and the vehicles/starfighters have been modded too. The Arc-170 has three seats, the V-wing no longer has bombs and fires normal lasers (the bombs are carried by the gunship). The AT-TE no longer has a particle cannon in the driver position, and the back lasers are the same as the front lasers. The IFT-X's beam cannon was replaced by the speederbike's cannon. The skins seem a little watery, but i wasnt able to do anything about that.

I expect to upload this in a few days.

Now for the screenies;

I decided to only include a couple, but these are the skins

EDIT: I also reskinned two of the rifle models, the Sniper Rifle and the Blaster Rifle, here are the in-game screenies:

Sniper Rifle:

Blaster Rifle:
the system is being buggy right now, so ill have to show the screenie later!

EDIT: the screenies were taken shortly after the first tryout of this mod, i have changed the weapon setups since then, they are:

CLONE TROOPER
Blaster Rifle
Commando Pistol
EMP Grenade
Concussion Grenade

HEAVY TROOPER
Blaster Carbine
Missile Launcher
Thermal Detonator
Time Bomb

CLONE SHARPSHOOTER
Sniper Rifle
Commando Pistol
Thermal Detonator
Recon Droid

CLONE ENGINEER
Shotgun
Fusion Cutter
Mines
Powerup Dispenser

CLONE COMMANDER
Heavy Blaster Rifle
Blaster Carbine
Thermal Detonator
Rally
Auto turrrets

JET TROOPER
EMP Launcher
Commando Pistol
Thermal Detonator
Detpack

(SPACE) CLONE PILOT
Blaster Carbine
Fusion Cutter
Concussion Grenade
Time Bomb

(SPACE) CLONE MARINE
Heavy Blaster Rifle
Missile Launcher
EMP Grenade
Detpack
Time Bomb

The EMP Grenades were custom made (i made them myself), and the Concussion Grenades were shipped with Majin Revan's Commander Cody, the Carbine is the same as the rifle, but a different model, and the Heavy Blaster Rifle *cannot* score frenzies as it is more powerful than the Elite Rifle

sorry had to cancel the project due to crashing which i could not fix

Gosh the Shock Troopers must be pretty popular 'cause I've seen a ton of this legion been released. The only bummer about these side mods, or skins, is that they replace the whole 501st and not just on one map that you want.

Good job though! I'm guessing that Commander Thire will be in this since you said the Clone Commander... I like the Jet Trooper.

Is Syth gonna get credited this time? Because it involves a lot of editing msh.option files (I think) and I seem to remember the version you released on SWBF Files contained an ARC-170 had exactly the same weapons as Syth's one from BFP.

skyhammer- Yankfan made the .odf file for this three-seated Arc-170 fighter that i used, and i dont think syth had anything to do with it.

EDIT: next time you visit battlefrontfiles, look for the file named "Modded ARC-170", that was the .odf i used

EDIT2: just letting you know that absolutley *no* .msh or .option files were edited to make the ARC-170 that im using in this mod!

EDIT3: heres the new rifle skin:

EDIT4: The EMP Grenade explosion effect

Looks like a pretty cool mod. Might want to change the first person views though. :thumbs:
