i want to create a map like you know in the return of the jedi where luke tells darth vader to turn to the light side and darth vader doesnt well i want to create a map where what if darth vader did turn to the light side. so what i want to do is have luke and darth vader go take down the emperor and the storm troopers i guess on the death star map i would also want to be able to have darth vaders name be anakin skywalker since you know he turned to the light side. and also i would also like to put the movie clip in before you play the map where luke says to vader to turn to the light side if thats possible if not thats fine. i know how to mod a little bit but not that much but i would really like to know how to do this

Whoa there, slick...
I don't know where to begin with this so I'll just make separate points...
1) Adding video clips is possible but would probably be illegal (a custom movie is fine but not clips from real movies)
2) You can change any name of any menu item of playable entity in Battlefront 2. See about using the localize tool in your mod map folder.
3) You could load Luke and Vader on the same team against Palpatine and storm troopers in your Lua script for your mod map.
4) A custom Death Star map is probably going to require you learn how to make models and stuff in 3D design programs. You can load the stock death star in your mod map instead.

Study the default Lua map scripts located in assets\scripts\
Vader is loaded from maps like Hoth, while Luke on maps like Coruscant.
In your map script data_mod\common\scripts\mod open your Lua file and put the lines in that load Luke and Vader that you found on the stock scripts.
Then in your map script edit the part of the code under setup_teams and put the character names you want to be with and against who and that will actually make your teams from the characters you've loaded from the side files.
