If cockpit views are anything like BF1, they'll be easy. It's merely a matter of lining them up correctly. BF1 didn't need hardpoints. All I did for the A-Wing was export the K-Wing's cockpit, recorded on paper how it was oriented, then opened a fresh file and did the A-Wing cockpit. So, as far as that goes, Darksaber of the XWA Upgrade project gave us permission to use his models, so that knocks out the A-Wing, and the Y-Wing (which I never knew was the same model as the X-Wing, never used FPM).
My wife's getting me BF2, but we're celebrating Christmas in early January due to schedules. By that time the tools should be out, and I'll certainly jump aboard the bandwagon.

Nice job guys. One Question: If u are able to make the cockpit views, then can u make a mod u auto-eject u out of a ship or vehicle when u blow up if ure a pilot or engineer? I know that in bfront 1 there was supposed to be something like this included in one of the patches but lucasarts never got it working.
Any feedback on this would be helpful.
EDIT: i checked in one of the readme files of one of the patches, dont remember which one but it definitely shows that lucasarts made an attempt to make an auto-ejecter possible.
thats all for now

Maybe you could do something with BF1 speederbike and edit it for an At-Rt. Just a thought, its a start.

If I could figure out how Blackrider was able to get the cockpit views for the speederbikes, I'd actually try to take a shot at making some for the starfighters.

Well Schizo i made the speeder bike ones by pushing the bikes close to the wall and teh only other one that we can do that with is the AT-RT. Becasue it shows the controls. We will have to get the otehr ones from the movies or Star Wars Galaxies. Anyone who has Star Wars Galaxies please post cockpit views for teh following ships
Jedi Starfighter
Grievas Starfighter
ARC 170
V-Wing
Y-wing
Imperiel Shuttle
and i think that is it
btw where is Rends.

WOW!!! That is some excellent work there. Will we be able to use these modes in MP at all? Not that I play MP that much but it would be a great addition. This might just get me to come back to the game.
Would it be possible to modify the Jedi so we could play as them in first person? I know a lot of people don't necessarily like playing in first person but it would be great for those of us who play the game exclusively that way. Better immersion plus it would look great on my widescreen monitor.

Hmm im no modder but im not sure we can do that because the same problem will happen with bf1. And when you swing a sword or an ax in battlefront it moves like an inch and its really lame. But it may be possible.
So Schizo if i get the views and i give them to you you can skin them then give them to Rends?
