Started as a successor to Eisenfaust's Realism Mod, this mod is set out to be the absolute pinnacle form of what Star Wars Battlefront could have been, and should be. Huge intense battles, immersive sound effects and visuals, do anything you want, go anywhere you want. Fight the battle YOUR way.
If you are installing over a previous version, make sure to copy your old battlefront.exe somewhere else, and then replace the new one that is made after installing. Failing to do so will result in the installer corrupting the executable.
Although it is always recommended to install a new release over a fresh vanilla install of the steam version.

Install Guide
The EGM team is proud to present V3.2 of the Enhanced Gameplay & Graphics Mod. This release features a plethora of bug/balancing fixes as well as a way for modders to insert their own LUA plugins.
V3.2 Changelog-
- Adjusted each map’s spawn rates individually to achieve a balance with EGM’s faster gameplay
- Certain unit classes are now more aggressive with pushing forward to capture CPs
- Rebalanced the heavy class’s scattergun. Now it looks and functions more like an SMG. Can no longer zoom. Now has limited ammo, and muzzle flash is now working.
- Rebalanced class spawn percentages and reworked damage output for torpedo launchers. This makes playing as non-riflemen classes seem more engaging and important, as well as makes vehicles less tanky, but still survive-able to play as.
- Added a subset of turrets for beachhead maps to act as heavy machine guns, and adjusted the regular turrets to have a slower rate of fire.
- Fixed Jet Trooper not using EMP cannon over pistol at long ranges
- Fixed unit class percentages on all maps so that heavy/special class units spawn less often, and also gave a buff to certain units like Super Battle Droids.
- Fixed geonosis pathing/balance
- Fixed grenades being thrown too early
- Fixed Kashyyyk: Docks ATAT missing, Wookies not spawning & stuck units. Removed tower turrets.
- Fixed Endor ATAT missing & Ewoks not spawning
- Fixed Hoth balancing: Winning as the Empire is now possible and teams engage more dynamically.
- Fixed Hoth Dark Trooper’s shotgun using old model & texture
- Fixed Naboo: Plains balancing: Teams engage more dynamically. Added Speeder vehicles for flanking.
- Fixed instances of units not moving along paths on the following maps: Kashyyyk: Islands, Endor
- Fix crouch & prone vs standing position accuracy. There is now more incentive to utilize crouching/prone..
- Increased damage of AT-TE cannon towards vehicles
- Increased ATAT health and damage slightly
- Increased Special Unit health
- Lowered rebel combat speeder HP
- Lowered fire rate of ATAT weapons
- Greatly lessened screen-shake from grenades and other explosives.
Launcher Changelog v1.1.1.1:
- Added Plugins option, to allow developers to add new functionality to the game.
- Fix issue of injecting DLL in suspended process (steam version) not working.
---
In this new release, you can have plugins to the game that adds or modifies the game logic.
The release contains two plugins already bundled with the launcher.
BasePlugin: exposes basic LUA API functions and provide a way to add new LUA functions using RegisterLUAFunctions function.
SetTeamColor: this is an example plugin that adds support for setting team colors rather than the default Green and Red for allies and foes.
---
Both plugins are open source to help get people to add more plugins. We are looking forward to seeing what you will bring to the game.

"4GB_patch.exe An error occured while trying to copy a file: Out of memory."
I have 32gb ram and 8gb vram so I have no idea where this error is coming from. The 3.1 installer works just fine.

You're doing awesome work! Thanks for making this game what it should have been. As it stands right now, this mod makes 2004 battlefront more fun for me than 2005. 2005 AI always targets the player, 2004's doesn't so this mod is perfect.

Hello, I love this mod my only issue with this mod is that it removes/replaces the default vanilla crosshair I was wondering if you could please allow us to change the crosshair back to the default vanilla version as I personally feel more comfortable and use to using that crosshair over this new version you have added in this remaster mod. Furthermore, I would love it if you could add a skin changer for Phase 1 clones and Phase 2 Clones as well along with their different legion skins.
