DESCRIPTION:
You can play as the hero class on any map and mode. Camera positioning was changed for the heroes to match the other units. The heroes keep their original functionality. For example, they are invincible, lightsaber deflection is turned on, and heroes can't capture command posts.
OTHER VERSIONS ARE NOW AVAILABLE THAT ALLOW THE JEDI TO BE KILLABLE AND OR CAPTURE COMMAND POSTS. YOU CAN NOW PLAY ALL GROUND SWBF2 MAPS WITH SOME SWBF2 HEROES ADDED.
NPCs are unable to pick the hero class, however, there will be an enemy hero NPC and 1 other friendly hero NPC if you activate instant action heroes in the options menu. If you are playing with the Jedi bonus in story mode or galactic assault, there will be an NPC hero for whatever team the bonus is activated for.

Does this replace the marksman?
My version of this, the hero character does replace the marksman class. The game can only handle 5 classes or it will crash. There is a work around this, but is very complicated and messy. I have done it before, but the nature of it and the amount of files needed to install/backup is too much for me to upload here.
Other classes can be replaced with the hero so that marksman is available. I have considered uploading the assets to my mod here so that people can play around with what class that want missing. Would be time consuming and unreasonable for me to have 15 different versions of this mod uploaded here
Can you make a version that doesn't have the improved models from Battlefront II? It's just not the same without the original BF I models.
I can give you my assets with the original models if you want. You would just hit a munge button and the mod would be made for you
i would like that, what program would i need to do that?
I just updated the mod with Luke and Vader's original skins. Also added a few small changes. Check mod description/read me
This is a great mod, thanks! I always wondered what it could have been like to play as heroes in this game back when it first came out
Thank you! So did I, and I always wanted to play the hero back then. So that is why I made the mod
Is there a way to have the AI attack you? it feels very under whelming when all the AI just runs past you and not try to fight back at all. I see my Team AI aiming for the hero when the AI hero is alone blocking everything and that looks awesome.
I was able to fix the issue where NPCs were not targeting the player's hero without having another NPC hero on your team. I basically just lowered the default health for the heroes. NPCs should now attack you even if you are the only hero on your team. I updated all versions of the mod to reflect this.
Note that for the 2 versions that have invincible heroes, your health will decrease slightly when hit by tanks or vehicles, but it will regenerate almost instantly. So you should still be invincible. If you get hit by a vehicle that causes ragdoll, such as ATAT or ATST, your health won't regenerate instantly until you actually hit the ground. Still shouldn't be a problem in terms of staying alive/invincible.
I believe it was you that also commented on my mod at NexusMod. Be sure and read my response there in terms of difficulty and your command post suggestions. Let me know what you think and I can make updates and changes for you!
