Battlefront Zero (Version 5.0) by Manderek is another conversion map pack which adds in approximately 12 new custom maps with all new custom building assets, models, skins, abilities, units, heroes, villains and game modes. I was surprised to not see this uploaded here to ModDB so I decided to upload Battlefront Zero here for re-archiving purposes. I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR MAKING THIS CONVERSION PACK. ALL CREDIT GOES TO MANDEREK ALONG WITH ANYONE CREDITED IN THE README.

1. Introduction (Mod information)
---
Well, here it is, at last. Battlefront Zero. Battlefront Zero is a mod for Star Wars Battlefront 2, which basicly adds VERY MUCH new Clone Wars stuff.
How? Are we replacing sides? The answer is no. Battlefront Zero is a stand alone mod, and can be played with all other mods. No things will be replaced,
only things will be added. This is because Battlefront Zero just adds maps, which includes all new stuff, like map objects, new legions, new droids,
new weapons, new vehicles, new heroes, new sounds, new effects and new animations.
Battlefront Zero can be used without any other thing, as said. Still, we really think you should download Zerted's Version 1.3 patch, because this will
add more MODS (like Jedi Hunt) and more display to the addon list. Without this shell from Zerted, the Battlefront Zero maps won't have names in the addon
list, so you'll need to puzzle to find out what to play! With the patch/shell, all map names will be displayed in BLUE FONT, so you know what a Battlefront
Zero map is.
2. Installation Guide
---
BEFORE INSTALLATION, IT IS COMPLETELY NECESSARY TO INSTALL ZERTED'S 1.3 PATCH! SEARCH ON GOOGLE OR GAMETOAST.COM/FORUMS
1. Take the ZER folder from this package, and paste it with the one from ...\Lucasarts\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData\data\addon
2. If it asks you if it's okay if files get overwriten, press YES, otherwise BF0 won't work properly
3. After installation, play till your computer crashes because of the drool coming out'f your mouth!
Uninstall:
-Remove the ZER folder from the addon folder (and uninstall the 1.3 patch if you need)
Problem:
-IF somehow it isn't working, you're probably having too much missions. Place some from the Addon folder in another folder, names different, so they're
temporarily not loaded. You can always replace them ofcourse. This should be compatible with the Conversion Pack and The Dark Times.
3. Mod Content
---
The mod mainly focusses on fixing old bugs, polishing some models and adding a WHOLE NEW ERA with heroes, sides etc.
It is to much to go into it with detail, for real detail I suggest you check out the maps itself (:
Things which eventually didn't make it into this final release, and why:
KOTOR era -- Had no motivation after Mav's amazing era
TriDroids -- Eventually had no map to place them in, they're done though
Endor; Base (MandeRek's map) -- Had 1 more bug, which wasn't worth fixing for now
AT-OT -- Done, but didn;t finish the animations yet.
Playable Crab Droids and Dwarf Spiders -- Never had time and good will to finish the big amount of work I've put in them
The above might be released as a seperate mod!
4. MandeRek's Note
---
Battlefront Zero has been my modding baby.. My first model is still in the mod, and so is my last. I really hope people can appreciate the
work I've put in this, and also all other contributors. This will be my last big mod, and basicly it's the only mod I've done.
I know some things lack, especially in the maps, but I hope the sides and heroes will fill that gap. I tried keeping everything as BF2's as possible,
so no HD-clones or other things which Pandemic wouldn't include in an addon for BF2.. Hope you really enjoy it, and.. good luck playing it all! (:
