Star Wars Battlefront III Legacy is a large-scale conversion mod created for Battlefront II using as many recovered assets that are available from the cancelled game Star Wars Battlefront 3 by Free Radical; including both eras (Clone Wars and GCW), a brand-new HUD+Interface and a few converted maps such as Coruscant, Cato Neimoidia, Bespin and Dantooine.

Description
Two new models imported: Kylo Ren and First Order Flametrooper, both ripped from TFA Pack for Star Wars: Pinball.
The lightsaber is just a placeholder and will be changed to his tri-saber when the model is done.
RIP Darth Caedus :(
Tjank you
******* awesome, man. Will the Sequel era be on all maps?

Fabricio could you possibly add Vader with his Jedi Robes and Red lightsaber from Revenge Of The Sith, obviously he didnt have a red saber, but it would look much cooler that way ;)
Whoa! Someone is going overboard with this project!
Looks awesome! Keep up the good work!
As Starwarsfan8 already said in the last comment section of the previous image, it would be indeed better to prioritize Legends content for this mod.
The game itself would have followed Legends lore, since it was being developed in 2008. It referenced or even included Legends characters and other content, such as Rahm Kota or Kol Serra, Vader's castel, Bast, on the planet Vjun etc.
And why putting sequel trilogy content instead of Legends content, when the models for the imperial remnant and new republic troops from legends were already created by Free Radical for BFIII and the modders have acces to them.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that the mod is bad, it's fantastic and I really appreciate the work of the mod makers, all the mapmaking and putting together the assets, the rigging, extra effects, coding, fixing and whatnot.
Some small additions that weren't set in the same timeline and didn't follow the lore are OK and fun.
And it definetely still feels like a mod that attempts to recrate the old cancelled SWBFIII as a mod for battlefront2.
But if they carry it too far with all these kind of additions, it will distract too much from the core idea of this mod an the game original game and become more a side mod of its own that uses assets from the cancelled SWBFIII. In that case it would be still a good mod nonetheless, but the name of the mod wouldn't fit that much anymore and it will differ from what the mod originally stood for.
