I have just recently found out about this project and today I played it for my first time. Here's a quick summary of how I felt about it:

1) VISUALS: I loved the visual update to the sides. As a fan of SWBF2015, I really liked how you brought some of its charm to the classic Battlefront. I loved the addition of the Bespin Rebel skins (and I kind of wish that this design fully replaced the urban Rebel design, even on maps such as Naboo: Theed) and the Tatooine skins (also, I think it would be cool if the Rebel Marksman could get a jungle skin). The new models and those small updates to some of the models (like the Imperial Pistol, Scout Trooper or the TIE Pilot) were satisfying. I also just love how the Phase 1 Clone Trooper looks with the updated model and your DC-15. I had conflicting feelings regarding the Phase 2 Clones, as it felt kind of iconic to SWBF1 that they only used Phase 1 models.

2) SOUND: The sound update was really good. The blaster sounds were amazing, and made the weapons feel much more powerful.

3) GAMPELAY CHANGES: The changes to the maps were really nice and improved their atmoshpere. I appreciated some of the class related changes, for instance, nerfing the Droideka. I'll be honest - the fact that Droideka is so overpowered in SWBF1 was one of those things I liked better in the sequel and you fixed that.

I appreciate all the work that you put into this. I like how you added so many cool things to the game, but still kept things simple so that the changes wouldn't be too intrusive. I have to ask this question though: is there a chance for an online-compatible version of the mod, that would just change the visuals and the sound? The link to your Sound Adjustment mod is dead, and this definitely feels like an improvement over that patch.

Thank you so much :)

The droideka was one of the first things I addressed, because I agree: it was no fun playing as the Republic on many maps when Droidekas could so easily mow you down without you having so much as a chance of damaging them. The Jet Trooper was meant to be the Droideka's folly, but even that didn't work in the base game. So I decided to even it out. The Droideka's still a beast, but it's a much more manageable one now XD

Re. the Phase 2 clones: I toyed with the idea of keeping the Phase 1s, but I looked at it from a certain perspective: if this game were being updated by Lucasfilm now, would they insist on Phase 2 units? I believe yes. But I also didn't like how Battlefront II had Phase 2 units on every map but Geonosis. So I opted to make it something of a compromise.

At present, I don't have plans to make a version that's compatible with older versions of the game.

I see. It seems that you've put a lot of thought into these details (and that's obviously a good thing). Your point regarding the Phase 2 Clones also makes a lot of sense. Anyways, as I said - great job :)

The game refuse to launch after installing the mod. I'm not sure what I did wrong. I do have the Steam version but I installed the Steam patch
