Hello, SWBF Fans!
It has been quite some time since a demo has been announced by me and the others developers we’re finally back with a taste of what's to come, for real. We are sorry about how far the mod has been delayed. By the time, we were not fully satisfied by the state of production.
So yeah, here we go. In this beta you can play as both the Galactic Empire and the Rebellion, you also have some minor factions such as the Former CIS, Clones (not the Republic), civilians, Mandalorians , locals (Felucians, Wookies) etc.
Before I go any further, the demo aims to recreate events taking place after TFU (1) ending. Indeed the mod is inspirited by the “Expended universe” also known as “Legends”. For those of you who played the game either the “light side” or “dark side” ending (and continuation) can be recreated through the mod. The Rebellion is composed of Kota’s Militia (mainly) and Bail Organa’s Alderaanian military, most commonly known as “tantive4-roasted-soldiers”. Of course they have different outfits depending the map.
Here is a quick summary of what you can expect:
- One new era: "Imperial Civil War"
- New maps
- Multiple new game-modes: "Order 66", "Imperial VS Locals", "Red VS Blue", "Mandalorians"
- Support for shipped game modes such as "Conquest" “XL” and "Capture the Flag" (both 1 & 2 CTF)
- Space Maps supported!
- Hero Assault available on Coruscant
- “XL” added to Mygeeto
- HD Map Re-skins, including Coruscant, Yavin 4, Mos-Eisley, Mygeeto and Naboo
- Large amount of new units & vehicles, more than 40 new weapons (melee, rifles, pistols, explosives, assaults etc)
- New effects (visual and sound)
- WAAAY too much content to list here. (<-- you will find every info in the Readme.txt)
Please note that the “Order 66” & “Red VS Blue” modes are in ALPHA stage. Order 66 is only available on Coruscant and Utapau. Red VS Blue only on Coruscant
The custom HUD coming with the mod is our work and design. It doesn’t recreate any HUD from any star wars game.
+Requirements:
- ~5.GB of hard drive space (Size of the maps, sides, sounds etc).
- ~1.5.GB of RAM (Recommended)
- Official Patch 1.1, Unofficial Patch 1.3
Note: the archive is in .rar type-file and is about ~1,19 GB (compressed)
Since this is a beta you may encounter various bugs/glitches, please report any bug you find to us. Moreover, if you have suggestions we are open, let us what would you want to see! You can leave a comment, here on the Moddb page. Soon our Discord Server will be setup!
A lot of our determination is now focused on the Clone Wars era, you can expect updates soon! As we did with the Imperial Civil War, we will stick to Legends :D
Finally here are the trailers (huge thanks to Twinkeyrunaway and the 411Remant for the wonderful trailer!)

Dude I’ve only seen a short 3 minute preview of this, so I don’t know if it’s too much to say that I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO HYPED BEFORE (other than destiny 2). I’m really stoked and I can’t wait until Wednesday
My Body is ready
But your mind isn't
Just gonna count the hours til wednesday
Good to hear you are finally getting an open beta release, I have been patiently been waiting for this and it looks like it is about to pay off, can not wait to see this get released Cdt. Fox!
i'm so thankful that you took the time to make this a beta i am grateful because you understand that star wars battlefront 2 can STILL be modded greatly and with creators like LitFam or harrisonfog and MANY others like you they want to make this game B E T T E R.
wowowowowowowowowowowowow
YES!
YAAAAAASASAS
Now to make sure I did not actually uninstall the game...
Vive les baguettes. Beau boulot les gars :)
Tradition les baguettes ^^
More than 40 new weapons..one for each victim to test on.
You should make a logo and put that at the end of the trailers. At the same time, use EA's catchphrase too with a slight modification..
It's 'IN' the game..seriously.
The 40 new weapons also include vehicles weapons.
Yeah, why not maybe for any future trailer we will add a catchphrase. Thb I doubt! lol
So, is it still launching today?
Of course =)
Lit lit, where is it?!
I have the unofficial patch installed but this mod doesnt show up?
Can you elaborate more please. I'm not a dev but I might be able to help
Nevermind. I read the readme incorrectly. when it says extract the BU1 folder or whatever to your steam add on folder, I thought it mean the whole thing. but no, it’s talking about literally the “BU1” folder
this is me btw, I wasn’t logged in my phone lol
I have waited a long time for this my (not) little green friend
I downloaded this and it keeps flickering (suggestions to what I've done wrong?
What do you mean by flickering ? Do you have the 1.1 official patch installed alongside 1.3 unofficial patch ? You may want to reinstall the mod. What I would suggest is install the new map before, test them and them. The install the main mod
when I load it up it has weird white lines flying around and a dark line that moves down the screen. I think it might be an issue with the 4:3 ratio on my smaller computer
I've put everything I need into my addon folder, and I can play the added maps, but none of the characters, or gamemodes. I do have the 1.3 patch though.
Hum you may want want to do step by step. First install the new maps in your addon. Test them in-game to see if they work. If so install the "BU1" folder. Make sure you don't have any other side mod installed ;)
Still, when I click on maps it doesnt have the option to play the gamemode you added. I did everything you said.
Wow. 2018 and people are still modding this absolutely wonderful game. I feared there will no more support coming on this one, but wow, this is such a delight. I just jumped on modding today and this particular mod just made my mouth water. Ill be looking forward for this one.
This mod is a masterpiece, like really thx!
But that walker on Kashyyk wants to escape, not fight. Thats the most annoying thing, not really else to complain.
Really wonderfull mod!
