Expanding Fronts is a massive modification for Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds aimed to breathe life back into the classic LucasArts strategy game by adding various new units, features, and gameplay elements. Each of the 8 civilizations are being reworked and enhanced to make each feel more unique and authentic to the universe, while maintaining the classic Battlegrounds gameplay. In addition, the Scenario Editor is being filled with hundreds of new units, buildings, effects, triggers, and objects to allow campaign and scenario designers more freedom than ever before.

Description

The newest public release of SWGB: Expanding Fronts, featuring numerous new units, features, and an entirely new playable civilization!

In order for me to get the new faction I had to run the configurator.exe after I installed the mod (although I did it manually) and checked the box to run Expanding Fronts instead of Clone Campaigns

How does that work? I did check everything in the configurator and clicked "save&exit;", but I still get no new faction after starting the x2 exe.

That was in an older version of the mod. Subfactions have since been removed.

You can still use them in the editor and perhaps even use triggers to unlock them for construction - but other than that...

Unlock them for construction? How does one do that?

Sadly, I couldn't find the E-Wing, K-Wing, or T-70, even in the scenario editor. :(

Will that be brought back in another version? I was excited for that :(

So if the configurator doesn't work, does that mean we can't play the mod? Do we have to wait for a patch?

Try installing the Expanding Fronts Beta over it, then re-install this and then try running configurator. It worked for me.

PS i noticed that someone mentioned that screen resolutions were being looked into.. you guys would make me want to play this game all over again with that improvement alone. Ive started looking into how the two can co exist.
