um do you need 1.1 AND 1.2? cuz i downloaded 1.1 and its not opening :S

I had actually considered adding extra units to space battles before, but the resulting amount of LUA re-coding would be tremendous, not to mention well beyond my skill level. The reason for that is the same reason that space heroes don't work on all maps. Same goes for AI-controlled heroes, which I wanted to do a while back.

The rebel marines will stay as they are. Their current weapon load-out suits their function as SWBF2 marines well enough. Adding a knife attack to the marines would "pollute" their secondary weapons and make using the marines a good deal less intuitive, as I discovered when I tried to give every unit a melee attack. And stealth would be ridiculously unbalanced. I've decided to confine stealth to the Recon class.

ok this time, i downloaded patch 1.1, and it installed, but when i try to run the game, it says "the wrong disc is inserted. please insert star wars battlefront 2 cd/dvd rom"
why? i downloaded the international dvd patch 1.1, so what has gone wrong? can somebody please help me fix this problem?

you still have to put the disk in.....


you need 1) 1.1 official patch 2)1.2 unofficial patch 3) 1.9 conversion pack 4) 1.8.4 pheonix patch for conversion pack 5) battlefront xtrme v2.1 !

i know i have to put the disk in, im not stupid
but i run the 1.1 patch, then put the disk in and try to play, but it doesnt work

Have you seen this yet carfanaticphil? It seems to me you just ignored someone who was trying to help you.

i did all that, but after installing bfx it just told me i had the wrong disk in the drive
sorry for the previous double post
it tells me i should insert the original battlefront II cd/dvd rom, when ive got the one i bought and the one ive been using with mods all the time in there
why does this happen?

It sounds to me like a problem regarding the 1.1 patch version that you downloaded. That's the only "mod" that affects BattlefrontII.exe.

ok
should i just try and install everything normally, in the same order, just leave out the 1.1? could it reallly make SUCH a difference?

Then how will player chose what time era they want to play in ???

There will be two eras - BFX CW and BFX GCW.

Are you using Vista ? cause i had problem running the game after doing everything correct , it just says "the exe is not connected to any program at the moment" (something like that) when ever i pres the shortcut or even the start game from the disc pop up

If so happens , use console user setting to the shortcut and you'll ply the game normally after you press "agree" on letting the start up

1. no i dont use vista
2. what do you mean "If so happens , use console user setting to the shortcut and you'll ply the game normally after you press "agree" on letting the start up"? how do i do that?

If you don't have vista it doesn't matter

then what should i do to make it work? what can i do? can i install everything but not the 1.1 patch, or what?

Try installing the patch at your desktop , then Manually copy the patch to the place where you install the game

PS: you must have 1.1 patch for mostly all maps and to play online , not to mention most mods need it by minimal request

yup, i did that.
my game is installed in D:\Star wars battlefront 2 and then it goes D:\Star wars battlefront 2\gamedata and D:\Star wars battlefront 2\install etc., so i put the bfiiupdateint1_1 in D:\Star wars battlefront 2, and i patched it, and it still says "wrong disc inserted"!
could it be a problem with the disc? is there some way of patching the disc to make it compatible with the version of swbf2 thats on my computer?

I assume, as you downloaded the International DVD 1.1 patch, that your game is the international DVD version?

well i dunno if its that hard. i remember that there's a geonosis map in filefront that's called GO1 or something like that. and Space Geonosis in conversion pack got the same folder name. i remember once i was installing the conversion. then the map or viceversa and somehow i had space geonosis from conversion pack with 10 classes per side. with general grievous able to use vehicles, magna guards, a lot of droids and several clones classes (all custom classes on each side) i cant explain better how did it happend but it was awesome!
a few weeks later i had to format my computer and i forgot to save the folder of the combined maps. and i tryed again and i couldnt

anyway. i think its the same as the land battles. just replace it and try.

@arc commander
i dont know if its international, im living in england atm, thats where i am now, and i bought this from an hmv in england, and it says ACTIVISION (UK) Ltd. etc., so i presume its uk
so what should i do
