OK. As Duck has repeatedly said, HAVE YOU LOOKED AT THE FAQ?
From the FAQ:
The BF2_modtools.exe is the debug executable, copy it from C:\BF2_ModTools and paste it in the same folder as your BattlefrontII.exe, usually:
C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData
you can launch BF2_modtools.exe and play your map then exit or let it crash to generate a BFront2.log located in that same folder.
As it says, let the game crash then go to the folder where you put the modtools and find bfront2.log. Copy and paste that on your next post...

EDIT: WOOOOOO 1000 posts. :D

As said: I'm going to have to use a different PC to mod this, which may or may not take awhile.

Windows vista/7 should not afffect anything.
the FAQ wrote:Question #5 - Does Star Wars Battlefront II work with Windows Vista?
Answer - Yes it does....
Note to Vista users:
If you can't find your BFront2.log it may be saved to this location:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData
or click on the Compatibility Files button in the GameData folder....
Question #7 - I'm using Vista or Windows 7 and Visual Munge is not working properly, it is munging too fast so what's wrong?
Answer - Try THIS < click workaround to get it working properly. Visit
THIS THREAD to make sure you have it right.
I think that should help you. If you cant find the error log, see above. I also think that you might have the fast munge problem, fix above. I have vista, NOT 7, and works fine. I suggest before trying to make a sides mod on all the stock maps (which is what it looks like your doing ) I suggest trying something simpler. Make a map with nice sides, and get really good at it, then take it a step further. THIS is a very helpfull tutorial that should get you started.

We will be happy to help you with any problems, but PLEASE BE SPECIFIC! The more specific you are, the better help we can be. I hope this helps you out, good luck, happy modding :thumbs:

if you wantyou can show them (the glamour skins thread is more appropriate though, if you made the skins), it wont help solving the problem though.

I didn't mean ingame; I meant of all the folders/ files, and if anything's wrong.

you have to run the crashing mission with the bf2_modtools.exe to create the proper log.

Its hard to get into the actual mission. As soon as I get to the final dot of the loading screen, it keeps loading. For 50 minutes, that was the highest point where I gave up.

press alt+f4 at about 3 minutes or so after the final dot, this is force the game to crash and then you may get an error log if its done right.

A. It crashes right as it starts to display the sides.
B. The Modtools exe doesn't take near as long, in fact, It's rather fast.
