Its time to set into history , the best of the first mods for SWBF2! We have over 50 beta maps flowing around the forums and many alphas. So much time goes into planning and creating these maps , its time to showcase the best of the best and get them exposed. We are looking to place the top 10 voted maps into the mappack1 for release May 1st.
This mappack will expose the modders works to over 100,000 more players and let everyone else see how important your works are!
I ask that people who want to be considered please post the map and a url to said map in this topic, of which i will be testing over the next 30 days and posting an updated poll so user on gametoast can vote for the maps they love the most!
Rends conversions will also be in the mappack so 10 maps is all we need! I know its hard with all the maps floating around but any map that isnt alpha/beta can be added to the poll. Those with download/upload issues please contact leviathan or myself via email/pm and let us know what you need to get your file on the site here or any questions you may have.
Best 10 maps will be posted on main page Of gametoast with honors and screenshots for all to see!
Keep up the great work everyone and IM looking forward to adding as many maps as we can gather to the voting poll in this topic! (coming soon)
So go ahead, played a mod map for swbf2 that has got to be made famous? post the info here to the map and let everyone vote for the modders masterpiece!

what about RHEN VARS??????
both the Citadel and Harbor should be on there
Bakura: town assault is good too
and Geonosis: spire and the Caverns map and Saleucami
and Raxus Prime which is incredible, that map was made to be played on multiplayer
i know i know alot of these are still betas but the ones i just named off are very polished and complete with little or no problems
to be truthful Mos Eisley is more a beta than any of these maps
I hope that the creators of these maps will give thier consent and put these maps in or take off the beta stickers so ppl can have these maps together in one place.
(plus a mappack would be a great idea when trying to create servers

)
good deal!

Guru, i think you should remove the Kashyyyk: Kachirko map off cos jangoisbaddest and i are working together and i don't think we are anywhere ready with it and it would mean delaying the release of the mappack if it is voted on.

sorry not a link to a map, just a quick question. I'm assuming that the mappack would be a totally seperate one to the one containing SWBF1 conversions? Have a mappack purely dedicated to the SWBF1 conversions and then another one (for starters) for other maps. I know that people have been working hard on the conversions so I figure they should get just as much credit for their work. Would the mappack contents work like this or would it be a mixed variety of a couple of SWBF1 conversion maps and a majority of other final stage works?

ALL of the BF1 conversions have been pulled, as they will be released as a pack in conjunction with the TAW clan

We're shooting for the 22nd of April, but it just depends. I suppose I could give you a status report however:
NOTE: Unless otherwise noted, each map has Conquest, CTF, 1-Flag CTF, Hero Assault and XL
*Rhen Var: Citadel - in progress by TAW_Pinx - Very playable, but not complete (needs some modes fixed up, touch ups here and there) I hope to get a few bugfixes/new heroes in before release.
*Rhen Var: Harbour - in progress by Darth-Derkie - He got all modes working, but I haven't heard from him in awhile. Whatever is the current version will be in.
*Geonosis: Spire - in progress by Darth-Derkie - He got all modes working, but I haven't heard from him in awhile. Whatever is the current version will be in.
*Kashyyyk: Islands - in progress by TAW_Artemis - Coming along very nicely. I think he's putting in Hunt mode. Should be at version 1.0 on release date.
*Kashyyyk: Docks - in progress by TAW_Artemis - Coming along very nicely. I think he's putting in Hunt mode. Should be at version 1.0 on release date.
*Naboo: Theed - in progress by TAW_Artemis - Coming along very nicely. He's putting in Hunt mode. Should be at version 1.0 on release date. The final version will have fixes for those nasty wallhackers.
*Naboo: Plains - in progress by TAW_Artemis - At version 1.0. It's complete aside from additional game modes. The pack will probably only have version 1.0. Future versions will have CTF, 1-Flag CTF, HUNT, and XL (no Hero Assault)
*Tatooine: Dune Sea - worked on by Teancum - Finishing up killing some bugs, then it's off to figure out sounds for vehicles
*Yavin 4: Arena - worked on by Teancum - 1.0 is out, version 1.1 (for the pack) will include bugfixes and death regions in the walls for those pesky hackers
*Bespin: Cloud City - worked on by Teancum - New beta was released today, need more feedback / bug reports before I make it 1.0
*Bespin: Platforms - everything works, aside from lightsaber sounds (in modes aside from Hero Assault) and I need to fix up some vehicles in XL. New beta should be out soon to test.

I like old map for SWB2 by Teancum, TAW_Artemis, Darth-Derkie.
I like new version by Stager00 and valiant (Utapau and new BIG battle on Geonosis and Kashyyyk Kachircho)
And i like Alderaaan (camoflage ARCs and scatter gun!)
Hm.. i like all!

Yes, I do appreciate Alderaan being up there. If it makes it into this map pack, I hope it'll get me some publicity and get some more people to play my maps. Plus, it'll put everyone up to date with the
correct and final version, since I know that the betas and such I released earlier are probably still floating around out there, and I want everything up to date. It's been such a mess with all the different versions, that I don't think I'm going to ever really publically release different versions like that again... just give it to dedicated beta testers.
But yeah, please, please,
please if Alderaan is able to make it in, try to get the correct version. I don't want even more betas floating out there.
Here's the link.
I, myself, want Raxis Prime in there the most. That was most definitely an awesome map.

As we need 10 maps and all of these ones are good we just need 3 more maps to put in the pack, I suggest mos varneil, and underated map, one of the first for BF2, any other completed maps would work, I have all of them so it doesn't matter to me

I suggest we include 'My First Map' by PaNzErgsp, I am not sure if it is in final form or beta stage, nevertheless I have not seen PaNzErgsp around for ages, so whether or not he will be continuing with this map is unknown.
I mean come on man this map is a classic not only because it was the first but mainly due to its simplicity and fun factor, just PWNAGE 24/7 on this map and it would be a good introduction point for anyone new to mod maps and a messing around jumping and jiving server.
I am also in favour of Bakura: Town Assault by PaNzErgsp!

I voted for Raxus Prime. So many forms of pwnage.
I like Bakura as well, but it's not copleted, soo...
A second choice would have been Schizo's Alderann, it's pretty sweet even if its gameplay style isn't my favorite.

I voted for EP2 Geo. It's so cool!
On close second was Courscant
On third was Utapau, it just needs some adjustments *cough*Shotgun overpowered*cough*

Ep2 Geonosis is awesome, particularly the fact that there are AI heroes running around. A close second was Coruscant: Order 66, which for me has replaced the shipped Coruscant as THE Jedi Temple map.
