Well, I know I've been gone for a while, and some of you might remember this project of mine. I finally decided to finish a beta version of the map, so merry belated christmas.

Taken from the Readme:
Hidden/Spoiler:
Mos Eisley: Apocalypse Beta v0.7

Made by: Phazon Elite

It's finally here (not that any of you were waiting on it)! This is my third map, Mos Eisley: Apocalypse. Read on to find more!


*The Enclosed Instruction Book*

Installation: Extract the MME folder with 7-ZIP or WinRAR to C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData\Addon (AddON, addon, whatever)

Uninstallation: Delete the MME folder from your Addon folder


*Features*

- While the map is, at its core, the stock Mos Eisley, it's so different that you might not recognize it! The entire terrain has changed, including different texures, surrounding mountains, and the ability to go outside of the city!

- Zombies! There is even a zombie survival mode! Each zombie is melee oriented, fast, and very powerful. Smaller ones are faster but weaker, while larger ones are slower, but far more powerful.

- Scorchmarks! My elusive blastermark effect makes its debut in my map! This means that instead of the usual sparks flying after a laser hits something, a scorchmark will scar the object hit for a short time.

- New atmosphere. The sky is entirely different, depicting a doomsday scenario.

- New weapons. These include a Heavy Rifle, Energy Grenades, an Electrostaff, and more!

-

- The Clone Commando replaces the Jet Trooper. Unlike Kamino: Breakout, the Republic DOES have a hero. The Commando's shield and weapons are a bit weaker to balance it out a bit more


*Modes*

CW
- Conquest
- Hunt
- Zombie Survival

GCW
- Conquest
- Hero Assault


*Known Bugs and Issues*

- GCW Conquest AND Hero Assault are incomplete. It's probably because of my own laziness, as I don't like the flow of a GCW era battle as much as a CW one. As for Hero Assault, it's going to have different characters other than the default crew.

- Zombie Survival is about halfway done. Once I find a good scripter to help me out with some ideas (weapon pickups, objectives, etc.), I can work on it further.

- There are slight balance issues with CW, mainly in a single player match. In a single player match, the player heavily (and I mean HEAVILY) influencing the outcome of a battle. The balance is fine in Multiplayer though.

- The scorchmark effect looks buggy, but I can't do much else about it. It's pretty much the best I can do until I find another method.

- Skyhammer 126: For his interesting Crossbow weapon

Special Thanks to:

- Droideka88: If it weren't for those zombie skins (not including the human zombie one), I probably would have never come up with the idea of this map
- Shockwave88: His human zombie skin rocks! Just when I was gonna give up on findng a human zombie skin, he shows me his excellent skin.
- Gametoast: For all their help and support. What I like to call "An SWBF Modder's Haven".

If I missed anyone, be sure to tell me!

Lol, no, but I'm probably most known for creating Dann Boeing's soundtracks for his maps.

In other news, if anyone can point out any bugs to me other than the ones I already know of, please tell me.

Hey, I hope I'm not being rude, but for the people who are somewhat new, like me, you think you could post the storyline of this?

That's not my call. You'd have to ask Shockwave88 for the skin, since he was the one who made it. As for Trace, you might want to Xfire me or PM me about it.

Ok, I have bad news. Here's the bad news: My Modtools will not munge on my new vista comp. I've already posted a topic on this, but nothing has worked so far. If I can't munge anything, I can't mod my own maps, and I definately don't want this map to be its final version. If any of you can help, the topic is in my Location on my profile. If anyone can help, thank you VERY VERY much!!

Lmao, I just realized that! I personally thought it looked like he was beginning to eat him or something (since he's actually doing the wampa's final attack).

Quick question can you create a new map? If you can if you edit something on that map even if it is just moving a CP can you then munge that? I ask because I just put bfiimodtool on my laptop which is running the same version vista and I don't get the error or results you do.
If you can create a new map copy your existing map somewhere, create a new map with the same 3 letter name etc, then munge it once. The replace all the files in the that world with your existing world, basically overwriting all the new stuff with your existing map. do that for the world folder and sides and scripts and whatever else you may have changed. Do a clean then remunge.

This is all just a theory but it may work, I am going on the assumption the map was originally created on the XP computer and just copied over. Maybe vista is stupid and it goes if I didn't create it i know nothing about it. Also just hit me make sure none of the files got write protected (read only) when they got copied over.

Yeah, none of that worked, as I told you from our chat on Xfire. Although I have to ask: What did you mean that Visualmunge seemed like it was running the batch files backwards? I've never heard of something like that...
