Cato Neimoidia - Preview [Early] image - Star Wars Battlefront III Legacy mod for Star Wars Battlefront II
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.

Some might believe that the mod is dead. It isn't. It's just that development went slower and sometimes not. Whilst I am waiting for someone to finish something important up (Necessary for the Beta), I decided to add at least one new map to this mod: Cato Neimoidia. The development of this map will definitely not take much longer than it did for Coruscant since most of the needed assets are ready for use already (e.g. Vehicles, Sides, Sounds, Game Modes, tons of scripts...and more). I hope you like the map so far. It will definitely look better in the future when Shadows and proper lighting have been added, new props have been added and...all that other stuff.
Why why why in the name of every god ever did they cancel this?
if you want the truth: financial issues and the CEO of lucasarts at the time during 2008 Darrel Rodriguez who also cancelled a bunch of star wars games like kotor 3, imperial commando, the next jedi knight installment, and others
Yeah figures, but what i'd really like to know if it was a case of not having enough money for making and releasing the game or not having enough money for my 16 Ferraris, ocean sized pool, 200 meter yacht and the jumbo jet sized private plane
They didn't want to spend the money to advertise it. The game had only a little trouble in development and needed some more money to finish and advertise but I guess they just didn't want to. I don;t get it though, why would you spend all that money to build the game, but then not bother give it a little more to promote it and then enjoy the crap ton of money it will give back to you.
