Move the 'SPtest.exe' into your gamedata folder. 'C:\program files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront\Gamedata\'
'program files' might = 'programme'. . .
The SPtest.exe that comes with the Zeroeditor and BFbuilder(the mod tools) has a free camera mode. It comes up when you hit 'Escape' or 'ESC'. I think its only in english but you could use it. You don't have to dowload the tools, just get it from this update.

No, captions are translated when you're using a foreign version of SWBF... Only the option you need to select to use Free Camera mode stays in English... :wink:

if you press backspace you can start and stop time! when time is not stopped you can go to the menu and go back to chase cam.

Leviathan, What will this 1.3 Beta patch do exactly? Make the camera angles different or move around, and if it does how do you control the camera angles or are they preset? LucasArts web page says nothing about free cam function where you can down load the actual patch. I think it would be great to move the angle to were you can see the battle field a little better. I hate it when player backs up to a wall in 3rd person view and all of sudden you are looking through player as if he was transparent, throws my aim off and can't really see what i'm shooting at. would be nice to keep angle up over the players shoulder or something.

trooper', SWBF 1.3 Patch BETA adds the "Spectator" feature (Which is usually called "Free Camera" mode...) to the game, but does not allow the user to modify vision's angles or other "advanced" settings...

If you want to change the camera angles for 3rd person view you'd have to download the mod tools and create a mod with different camera angles in it. As far as I know it's not possible to change the camera angle for 1st person view at all.

Well, I haven't downloaded the mod tools yet, I will down load the 1.3 patch and try it to see what it looks like since it is such a smaller download...lol.My computer at work has the narly internet connection, my poor home computer just has 56k slowdom right now, it would take me about two days to down load that big Mod Tools Pack....lol. I wish there was a way to get a CD ROM with all the Patchs and Mod Tools and updates needed for Modding Tools on one disk or DVD disk, I would even might want to pay a little something for suck a disk....lol. It would make my life a lot easier and get me started off modding a lot faster if i didn't have to run down all the tools, patchs,and updates needed to start modding a map.

If I'm not wrong, FileFront provides a service which burns all files you'll have registered on a list, and send you the "final outcome" on CD...
However, you should go on http://www.swbffiles.com to get more informations about this process...
