So good to finally release improved sides! Hope you all enjoy the mod, I made a release video showcasing what's new: Youtu.be
Thank You Soooo munch! you made my christmas mayt! I've been waiting for this kind of side mod. MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Here the fun beggins
i have been expecting this
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
The downloading is so slow :(
Thanks for all the hard work you do to make this game beautiful. It's a shame that now to find good games you have to look backward instead of forward.
Just in time for Christmas.
yey
I’ve been playing for a few hours now. Still enjoying it! :)
If you could give the Commando a DC-17m rifle, that would be cool. Other than that, this mod is amazing, instant 10/10 from me.
I don't think there is a Commando, or is there something that I missed?
The Clone Commander class for the Republic. He's a Clone Commando.
Very nice.
So, do the weapons work like the vanilla ones, with the awards and all?
Yes its just a retexture no gameplay fetures are touched
I love you! Thank you for a great Christmas gift!
Theres a chance I cant run this mod with all the files that well but heck Il install it even if its one side congrats on the release guys :)
*Update I can run the mod pretty well I think and that makes me just estatic now keeping this in my side folder forever :)
Nice job with these. I really like the models, but I also found a few issues when I was trying out the new units. Mostly it was units using vanilla weapons in FPM and HUD tag errors, but what really strikes my curiosity is the droids using the ACP Array Gun as a sidearm. Strange it's being used as a pistol since it's meant to be a shotgun. This mod must be living in its own canon ;)
Not sure why, but the way the Rebel Marine looks makes me think of Robin Hood living on Bespin.
These are bugs. (Except the marine)
Dear Javitolo98, Harrisonfog, Calrrissian97, AshuraDX, CdtFox,ggtuck and Sereja,DEVISS and Commander91. Thank you so much for this mod on Christmas day. You surprised me, corrected the animation from the Republican commando with a machine gun, liked the model of dark troopers and even added cockpits for all the fighters. Plus, we changed the colors of lasers and plasma of fighter guns for each faction.
However, I can not say that your mod is completely perfect. I noticed some flaws or some errors:
1) It seems to me that most of the units are too bright. I put different graphic modes (including the Harrisonfog mod) and set the vanilla background, but still the units are very bright.
2) Your upgraded weapons have poor quality sights. Don't misunderstand me, but in the vanilla version, the sights felt more realistic.
3) When you load energy weapons (wookie crossbow, shocker, grenade launcher) to the maximum to the shot, there is no animation of this charge. In the vanilla version, this animation is.
4) Not all fighters have cockpits, for example, the Respublican B-Wing did not have cockpit.
5) Elite weapons (pulse blaster, precision pistol, guided missile, super shotgun, laser sniper rifle) remained in the vanilla version. This applies to all units.
6) In the first-person Republican commando, the sleeves are not white or gray metallic in color, but for some reason they are in vanilla violet color from the old unit.
7) Playing with some kind of unit (Princess Leia, Bob Fett), you can see that the weapon icon is in the middle of the screen, and not in the right bottom left corner.
8) Master Jedi Yoda levitates in the air as he walks on the ground.
9) Darth Vader and Anakin Skywalker do not hold their lightsaber, and the sword just sticks in its hands.
10) The Sith, who are strangling their enemies with force, cannot be heard as the enemy is choking.
There are still a few minor problems and shortcomings of this mod, I understand perfectly well that this was a very difficult job. I hope you fix all the shortcomings and mistakes, release the finished mod, and most of the fans and players will be happy to accept it.
Harrisonfog, when will the patch of maps be ready? How ready is the map Jacu and when will you release it? How are things with the graphic mod? Which next map will you update?
Good holidays to you, gentlemen authors.
Well I disagree with a few things on this list but most have been already reported.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSS its released, thanks you so much for dedicating so many hours to get this demo out and the rezzed maps. Personally i love the rebels on the Tantive IV they look amazing. All of the improved sides in this mod makes the game 100% better with the maps and now people can realistically replicate their favourite scenes from the movies or have a good old fashioned war. This made my christmas. I look forward to what's next in 2019 and i hope everyone in the community had a good christmas.
For some reason, the imperial side does not work at all for me, for any map/story, I join in and its just the royal guard, I tried switching to rebel side. and when I play as royal guard, game crashes.
The royal guard isnt in this mod your problem seems to be the gcw mod that overites the stock side uninstall that mod and then play the campaingh
First off let me say thank you from taking my BF2 from about 70% perfection to 90%. Im extremely technically inclined but cant seem to figure my way around these mod tools..
Ive played this mod quite a bit since release. (Mainly 2nd gen clones)
Im sure I will go unheard but id like to make a couple recommendations.
The shotgun class has a D-15 assault rifle rather then a DP-23...
I kinda dig the Republic Commando class for the 501st style 2nd gen but feels SOOOOOOOO out of place to have a damaged republic commando on geonosis with shiny brighty boy regular 1st gen clone troops...
Im so happy to have a different model for the space map only "clone marine" Wouldnt a galactic marine (maroon and grey snowtrooper looking guys) make more since though?
The CIS side is PERFECT as far as I can tell..
Havent messed with the rebel scum yet...
1. They are listening to feedback but they haven’t been able to respond to things as much recently :)
2. Shotgun is known and will be fixed
3. They can’t change it only on Geonosis it would be shiny on all maps + They went through quite a lot on Geonosis so it kinda makes sense why they are already damaged
4. They will not change the marine bc it was voted on the discord
I've been playing this mod for quite a while and I have to say that you did a great job :D There are some bugs here and there like the unchanged 1st person weapon models and floating icons, but I'm pretty sure that most of them have already been reported. Like filthimoney, I'm not 100% convinced about the Clone Marine model, but if that's the majority's choice, I guess I'm fine with it. The thing that I'd report however, is that the SWBF1 maps converted by Marvel4 where the Rebels are supposed to use their urban camo versions crash on GCW. But I guess it's almost impossible to avoid clashes with certain mods/maps. All in all, I like it and I can't wait for the update.
The Marvel Crashes and some of the bugs you mentioned we are aware of and we know the issue causing some of them thanks for reporting it anyway and enjoy playing the mod :)
The turrets on Hoth will not spawn for me. Anyone else have this problem? Mod is great otherwise though!
Figured it out!!! The way you fix this is you go into your old "side" folder and copy the tur.lvl and paste that into your new modded "side" folder. Simple Fix!
I have this issue where iv a certain troop is selected it makes the screen all black im gonna try to add the files in again to see if that fixes it
edit it didnt fix it
edit 2 it wasnt the mod i think
and randomly it goes black as well
Try and disable discord overlay in user settings
ok
Nice mod man, i love it, this is an amazing work bros... but I wonder if you can make one that is compatible with the Skin Changer...
The Princess Leia character has a HUD issue where the blaster is in the center of the screen
I'm also curious why different stormtroopers have either blue or black shoulders?
To make the diferent clases stand out from the regular trooper and differentiate them
Why treat them on like clones though? Aren't stormtroopers supposed to be all white?
Please add the skin changer option to change the legions of the clonetroopers please I would love to have the 212th legion skin over the 501st
They will work on it sometime but when is not certian
Does the fpm folder go in the side folder?
Nope it goes in the fpm folder which be near the ssame place as the side folder

This is a very good work. Thank you very much for your efforts and for sharing your passion with us all BF players.
If you want to continue your work here are some things I saw during my games :
- It seems that lightsaber wielders don't have their hand hold well the saber.
- I might be wrong but I'm almost sure that Han Solo's DL44 scope is reverted and should be placed on the right of the gun.
- I confirm the others HUD bugs already mensionned above like gun icon in the middle of the screen
Anyway, thank you again for your great work ;-)
Just tried the mod, and I have to say... Fantastic work! I was waiting for the proper release and it was worth the wait! The Republic Clone Troopers (Phase 1) are the most impressive characters in the game and my favourite remastered side in this mod. Thank you so much for making this!
The only possible way to make this mod ANY better is to add custom animations. Other than that, this, rezzed maps, and harrisonfogs graphics mod is the holy trinity.
Freakin beautiful!
so im trying to get this to work but every time i try to load up a match it would end up kicking me out of the game and idk how to fix it. i followed the installation guide exactly but idk whats wrong.
Kicking you? Offline? If its crashing try and look on the steam pages or a simple google check 2x check if u instaled it correctly
