| | The best four maps you've never played - Miscellaneous
Posted by: Maveritchell on 06-22-2009 @ 15:24 | | | This News Item has been viewed 1674 times! | Star Wars Battlefront 2 News | I have a confession to make. Despite the fact that I love spending time creating mods or maps, I rarely take the time to sit down and play them (especially if they are not my own). However, every once in a while, I will pull out a few of my old favorites (or re-download them) and just enjoy taking a trip down memory lane.
I was playing through a few old favorites just the other day when the thought crossed my mind, "A lot of people haven't even heard of these maps, just because they were never uploaded to a lot of places." For some of these, this is a real shame, because there are some really fantastic pieces of work out there.
In the spirit of helping you to enjoy these works and giving some much-deserved recognition to the creators of these works, I'm going to spend some time writing about them, in the hopes that you - the reader - will take some time, find the download links to these, and enjoy them as I have. I won't post any links here, because it's not my place to choose where and when people have their files hosted, but I will encourage you to - if you are intrigued by the descriptions and pictures - do some searching and find them.
So here they are: the best four maps you've never played (because they're not hosted here), in no particular order. Enjoy!
The first of the four is Delinquent's Pestox: Urban Wasteland. This map (like Delinquent's other maps which are hosted here, like Imperial Base or Raxus Prime) is a great example of how to use stock assets well. As Star Wars Battlefront II has gotten older and the modding community has matured, a lot more knowledge and custom assets have become available, and as a result, a lot of newer maps will look a bit more creative. However, all of Delinquent's maps, this one most notably, are exceptions to that rule. What you'll see in this beautifully-constructed map is use of assets from several different maps (not just all-Tatooine or all-Bespin), liberal retexturing, and lots of atmospheric effects. All of these (combined with some creative sides) help this map to really stand out as a truly unique creation.
In the following screenshots, you can see the use of all of the above to create a haunting urban atmosphere unrivaled by the vast majority of maps (see the bottom of the article for all the pictures in a larger size):
 
 
While you are probably familiar with Rends's popular Coruscant maps, the second of the four maps, Mos Eisley: Spaceport (beta) is - in my opinion - superior to either one of them, and unfortunately not as well-known. Unlike Pestox above, this version of Mos Eisley stands out probably because of its use of stock assets exactly as they were intended, with a very liberal use of custom (and well-coordinated) assets as well. Put simply, Mos Eisley: Spaceport is easily one of the most detailed maps (and for its size, easily the most detailed) there is available. When Rends made this, his goal was to accurately reproduce the city as seen in Episode IV and, while I can't speak for the original set designers, it looks pretty darn good to me.
From cantinas, to droids roaming the streets, to landspeeders, to junkyards - even down to Docking Bay 94, Mos Eisley: Spaceport is a pitch-perfect recreation, and these screenshots hardly begin to do it justice:
 
 
The third map, Pinioncorp's Muunilinst: Rooftops (beta) is a triumph of colorful custom assets. Everything in the map (or at least nearly so) is newly-modeled specifically to recreate the banker's city on Muunilinst. All are done in bright and refreshing hues - which is nice to see, a city that doesn't try and look dark and war-torn. The detail is very nice - the map works so well as a conquest map, you almost forget to take the time (and believe me, you will want to) to notice what's going on in the scenery. If you don't look carefully, you may miss custom star destroyers in the sky, or a subway-train that'll move you from one side of the map to another, or a large banking vault with gold scattered on the floor - these are just some of the unique visuals in the map.
Seeing a completely-custom map is always a joy, because it guarantees something new and fresh. Take a look at these pictures, and get a small window onto the rooftops of Muunilinst:
 
 
The fourth and final map is archer01's Operation Ferret Master, which despite its title has nothing to do with ferrets (the implication is that the Master in question is ferreted out). This map, despite its simplicity in visual design, is a triumph as a standard-setter for what can be done in Battlefront in terms of campaigns or scripted RPGs. I've made, myself, a number of "story-mode" maps, but it was testing this map of archer01's out that made me want to do the same for myself. To this day, this is one of my absolute favorite maps out there, and if you take the time to play through its story mode, you'll have a real blast - it's a fun story with a very decent length.
Don't let the appearance fool you - this map was groundbreaking and is lots of fun to play:
 
 
So there you have it - the maps that are, in my opinion, the four best maps you've never played. If you have had the opportunity to play them before, super - hopefully, though, you'll see something in here that you've never played, and now you'll get the chance to.
And this of course is not to mitigate the number of great maps we do have available at the site - if I were to go through and try and list every map I thought was a real "A+," it would take quite a while. So when you're looking for maps, don't just stop at the "Twenty most recently uploaded" or the first couple pages in the map archive. Take some time, browse through - there are lots of gems out there waiting for you to play them.

Total: 702 | | Start: 06-14-2009 15:41 | | Last: 06-21-2009 21:08 |
Maybe one that's made to be more story-like. Like the single player campaign.
I was just about to suggest that. Though, scripting may be a challenge for those who can't; so a map with a storyline but no script necesary. Sorta like the 607th: custom-themed team versus cutom-themed enemies in a custom area.
Heck, I voted the first option, cause that just sounded wimpy.
I think they should have a hoth or rhen var themed map competiton, those were my favorite maps and i have yet to see a good custom map of those planets.
Like Maps based on other Star wars games, or even new renditions of pandemics maps for battlefront 2 (ie. The force Unleashed based maps)
an empire at war scale map ight be cool, w/ tons of vehicles and massive amounts of infantry. or a hero assault map w/ duel ctf and assault modes based on lightsaber duels in the movie
sry 4 double post, but basically anything seen in the movies, or video games: star destroyer,duel on naboo (thtwould b great), droid factory, etc
I'd like to see a map where its actually movie themed like maybe Teth or something...
maybe even an expanded battlecruiser similar to Tantive IV except... well... bigger
Air-to-space!
Expanded battlecruiser, hmm? I'd maybe release some of my Star Destroyer props if that were the pick, though I don't actually have many intended for use in multiple locations...I hit the maximum object limit and started combining them all together in each room, you see (room models include prop models) but I've got some nice tunnels, arches (that fit the imp doors), nice basic flooring, etc.
I personally said climate. Some people do really well with some, others not so much.
(slightly off topic) its good to see some of the older, more 'classic' maps being featured... I've played every one of them.
Can this also extend to BF1? I know it would be only a few people but we need to be included too.
And I think it should be snow-like map. Not alot of them around.
Why would anyone want a contest churning out maps of ONE planet??? At least climate gives the contest some diversity. Why is the first choice even an option??
I voted for themed contest, but I think planet based would be cool too. Just somewhere new. For example, we all pretty much got a load of Triple Zero with Coruscant Streets, so somewhere unmapped like Iego.
For the themed contest, I think it should be some sort of military focus. Base wars or something- one team is infiltrating a definable base while the other protects it. These are just my views, either way it turns out, I can't wait to see what FF modders can do this time.
I want to see a map that is absolutely huge!!!!!!!!!!! With moving doors, bridges that can be blown up or bridges that are similar to draw bridges. City in the mountains enviroment. Walkers outside the bases and plenty of areas to snipe, hide, and roam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would actually like to see maps that involve rushing a beach than move into an urban area. That would be a cool map.
#6 made me think, a droid factory map would be really awesome, with conveyor belts (if that is possible), props of half droids etc.
And you could have them spawn inside a load of inaminate droids, so any clones coming along have to blast all the droids to find out which are activated or not ^^.
SORRY BUT I DIDNT FINISH MY THOUGHT I want to see a map that is absolutely huge!!!!!!!!!!! With moving doors, bridges that can be blown up or bridges that are similar to draw bridges (like defult death star ones in the game). A city in the mountains enviroment with some rolling plains obviously. Walkers outside the bases and plenty of areas to snipe, hide, and roam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also the clones can have rock colored (shades of grey and black) pattern to blend in with the mountains and the droids can be the super battle droid color HOPE THIS IDEA IS CHOSEN BY THE PEOPLE OF F.F. & THAT IT MAKES IT TO THE SITE  THANKS
Dream on mate.
planet theme
A planet with star destroyers flying around.Maybe the empire starts in the star destroyers,and they land shuttles.What fun.If this is a good idea say something.
so it would look pretty cool though
A fully interactive map with destructable terrain and props like zurk said
What would be really awesome is a fully expanded Grievous's battlecruiser the Invisible Hand and besides conquest there is a campaign part too...
Hey Hobbitrabbitman! Ya Man! destructive terrain
There's a problem with your "dream map:" BF2 can't handle a humongous map with every square inch filled with interactive, shootable, or movable props and objects. BF2 has limits: object counts, animation limits, lighting limits, etc. And, with time limits on the mappers themselves, I will bet that the majority will opt for smaller maps, and focus on scenery, prop placement, and playability.
"Desctructive terrain" isn't even possible. Even if it was, it would take a lot of time to get correctly.
I'd like a huge map with tons o' fun too, but BF2 just can't handle all of that.
Climate: preferably a night time guerilla war in a forest like environment. A bit like Rise of the Empire 3, but a bit more focus on actual fighting instead of tech and the map. So much forest yet you'll never fight droids/rebels there if you're a clone...
Destructive terrain as in like shoot a rock or building or tree and there is a black mark on it and if you shoot it a lot then it falls over or breaks. In halo, the force unleashed and call of duty its like that. it would require coding like "If blasterbolt hits walltexture3 then walltexture3 = blackmark2"
Hey guys, this is a place to discuss possible contest topics, NOT make completely ludicrous or impossible map requests. Please keep on topic from this point forward.
A new mode would be sweet! like that one Zombie mode in Earth Town
sorry xavius i think that it would be good to have like classic movie scenes like the battle of coruscant or naboo.
If it had to be planet themed... it would need to be a way out there planet like Christophsis or Teth... "wild space"
If someone could get christophisis right that would be amazing.
sorry for double post but yes it would be cool to see some maps that are of planets that are less well known. Way too many tatooine and geonosis and yavin maps out there. A taris city map would also be cool
how about this for a twist....... a map with a mountains, bridges, and bases INSIDE the mountain. Similar to the default hoth map, but bigger
lesser-known planets would be nice...however some would require custom objects which, unless they are already out there, would have to be made, which not everyone can do.
zurk you think BIG if you want something like that check out the Ancient Research Facility map. Yes, custom objects would have to be made, but you also could just reskin objects from other maps. I think that there are some good possibilities for all coruscant maps, they look cool, and the only one to make a decent coruscant map is rends. I personally think that city maps are the best.
ouch... planet theme winnin badly...
ok will do. but hey... thinking big is great too. and i bet somewhere there has to be custum objects. Question: are certain objects from the default BF2 game able to be extracted or copy n pasted into a custom map? im trying to learn how to create maps and its a slow start right now
I'd prefer another climate-based one. Some planets we don't know enough about to make a good map off of them.
I like CommanderJaspo's maps that have lots custom objects. My favorite map of his is the "Crystal Forest" because it has that unique feel to it. More maps like that would be nice, so i chose Climate
i'd have to say climate it allows for more creativity while just planet themed maps are well limited to that planet

3-way lightsaber duel? I didn't know Obi and Qui-gon were fighting each-other. 
I liked the podrace, I love watching the pilots scream then blow up!
3-way lightsaber,of course! It's the first time in the star wars series where we see a pure old school jedi vs sith duel that we weren't used to in the original triogy.
the lightsaber duel. doublebladed weapons are not seen as much in stuff like this... though if maul had had a double-head light-axe, THAT would have been cool...
(Yes, there are lightaxes, last I checked...)
The 3-way lightsaber duel, definitely. One of the best duels next to Vader vs Obi-Wan on Mustafar.
I don´t think so. It is not at wookieepedia it doesn´t exist
All of the action seens in Ep. 1 were short or not suspenseful except for the duel. The duel had great choreography and kept you on the edge of your seat. The three way duel definity my pick.
Lightsaber duel. Amazing scene; it's actually my most favorite duel. Qui-gon was my favorite character, Maul the second, Obi-Wan the third. And I was forced to watch the top two die off. I loved it. In fact, this may be my most favorite scene of the whole saga.
really? I thought there was an entry...
never mind, I meant lightclub.
Yeah, I like the duel best of the whole movie. Maybe even my fav. duel of eps. 1 & 2. Yeah, i know there wee duels in ep. 2, but they were either Jedi vs Other People or Normal Jedi vs. Normal Sith. (By normal I mean human.) The Duel of the Fates was cool because Maul looked cool. (Among other reasons...) I did like the Kamino duel, though. And yes, I know Dooku is cool, but he's only human, not some cool-looking tatooed Sith like Maul. (Now, if Dooku got a tatoo or two... )
Sorry. I kind of went on a rave there. Sometimes I just.... Better stop before I embarass myself further.
Jediboy
The duel was cool, I liked the pod race too 
how is it a 3 way duel. it was 2v1
I, personally, liked the 3-way lightsaber duel. Second pick would be the podrace, third would be the Gungan-Droids battle, and the last one would be the Space Battle.
The lightsaber duel was awesome. It was sad to see Qui-Gon die (I cried a little to see him die) but everything was flawless. Sometimes I imagine what Anakin's fate would be if Obi-Wan died instead of Qui-Gon.
The podrace was okay. I didn't like when Sebulba pulled one of his tricks, but the effect still kept me excited.
The Gungan-Droid Battle has one word that describes it all: FUNNY. All because of Jar Jar. He was goofing around as a General and still saved the day. When he let the glowing balls out, that made me laugh, and I laughed harder when he was hanging from the AAT.
The space battle I didn't like because it was so explosive. Don't get me wrong, but I couldn't see anything in the background. I think the director only wanted to focus on Anakin and R2. In Ep III, it was a big battle and I still saw everything clear in the background. The end of the battle was surprising when Little Anakin destroyed the Battle Station. 
STAR_WARS_FREAK 
I like the part when Jar Jar died.
Wait, he didn't? Aw..

Jawas! Mostly because I hate the Ewoks series and all the stuff that came with it.
Jawas. They gots guns.
Jawas, never did like the Ewoks...
BEST... POLL... EVER...
-Angrybob
All Jawas do is seal things though, ewaks helped defeat the empire!
The eternal question, eh?
Jawas. I like my toast. End of story.
Ewoks are too cute I don't like them, Jawa's =
#5 that's exactly why I HATE ewoks.
Jawas.
this is random but sure jawas
ewoks could crush jawas in a fight like w/ all their log traps and clever hunting skills. jawas have guns, but they`re ...pretty dumb and just scream and pick up garbagr all day.but jawas do look cooler.
Ewoks own! they destroyed AT-ST's with big logs! come on! and i luv there language.
Pluss Jawa's suck, they captured R2-D2 for god sake! they all deserve to die 
I think we don't like ewoks because they do'nt fit thier role-some little bears defeating the empire come on  Oh and without jawas the empire would never have been defeted because the jawas delivered r2 and 3po to luke which started the who luke become jedi thing of...
idc if they brought them to luke, they still stole him!
Jawas. They are funny little guys, but the ewoks.........I didn't like them anyway-.-
Personally, I like Jawas better. Ewoks just seem a little dumb to me. I mean, little teddy-bears that throw rocks and sticks? As opposed to Jawas, who wield blasters and seem more technologically advanced, with their sandcrawlers, and ability to fix almost anything. I just like Jawas better. Now, if the poll was, say, "Jawas or Rancors", well....
Jediboy
cmon, jawas are kinda annoying. And ewoks DID help defeat the empire. and they're awesome. i vote EWOKS!!
@5 Yeah! Stealing stuff is evil!!  Ewoks rock!!!
@9 Jawas are so cruel!!!
"OOO Tini" Jawas ftw
OMG, OMG, OMG *faints* WHAT TO DO??!!! WHAT TO CHECK!!!!????
*falls in panic and tries to check both options*
Need I say anything...
Jawas, deffinetly. Heh, guru would love this poll.
Ha Ha! Ewoks!
Huttini! Jawas all the way
Jawas FTW...
Deffinetely Jawas! I just can't believe that the StarWars series,filled with great battles and agressive sides with political plots and everything,entered this stupid Ewoks who frow little rocks at an AT-ST that was a ''key'' in the rebel victory in ROTJ. I HATE THEM! They just didn't fit. That is why I didn't like the movie so much.
JAWAS! JAWAS! JAWAS! i like jawas better 'cos the empire should NOT have been defeated by teddy bears with little bits of wood (since when can arrows pierce Armour)
Has no-one seen Family Guy Blue Harvest, Jawas have Dijon Mustard!!!
@ 5, 12, 17, 18, and 23
guru will eat your children.
#29: No he won't. He a vegetarian. And he;s too cool to do that anyways. He'll eat their veggies instead.
I am a harcore metal singer and lead guitarist and spend my nights playing Resident Evil, Madworld, Halo (but dont we all?), and Gears of War. Yet i vote for the Ewoks because i hav an effing ewok pillow!
What's not to luv about them?
I like the stormies better than rebels, but the sybol that the ewoks potrayed when they fought with the stormies and walkers is that hope, being united, and the force is all u need to opress evil, they stood for the righteousness of those who had been murdered because of the dark tiumes- they were the people's revolution against the emperor. No matter how weak the resistance may be, the three things i mentioned before gave them victory over the armed and armored empire.
YAY!! i hate veggies
Ewoks all the way!!!!!!!
you lose major man-cards.
jawas are better;
1. more advanced
2. actually useful for something
3. language is cooler
4. guru
need i say more?
Jawa's:
You must Die!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2G1_DbpduKM&feature=related
though i will admit, the jawa violence movie was pretty funny ... its in media, under video if you are interested...
http://starwarsbattlefront.filefront.com/file/Jawa_Violence_Video;76690
The ewoks were about to cook han and luke,
screaming hooded migits ftw!
Jawas are cool, Ewoks suck. That's just the way it goes.
jawas stink. Ewoks rock. say what you will, but that's just the way I see it. Technologicly advaced? look what happened to the empire with it's technology. killed by the cutest aliens in the world with rocks and sticks. boy they sure broke their bones. empire owns I know. its awsome. but the ownage empire got owned by eowks who could probably kill all the people in the galaxy, but their to cool and cute. lol. randomnesss but yah, lol. did I mention it's my birthday?

i reckon before 1,2,3 because we know what happens between 3&4 pretty much, we know about after 4,5,6, maybe not way after the YVW, but i'd be really interested in seeing before 1,2,3 and maybe something more republic or sidious in training or darth bane, that'd be cool.
I'd like them to do the Vong war, I read about it on Wookiepedia and it sounds really cool. Although it would be kinda sad cause chewie dies. But all the actors are proper age for it.
i think i would wanna see after 4,5,6 and before 1,2,3
and 4, 5'n 6 because i've read the legacy of the force series and they own, and it links back to the yuzhan vong wars, so i thionk i'd like to read about that. Pluss, 3-4 had kinda been done with force unleashed. last of all b4 1,2,3; in my opinion, is a bit borin in the game. so 4,5'n 6 ftw
I would have to say after the GCW w/ Thrawn and the Yuuzhan Vong.
Are you suggesting that KOTOR is boring? Do you know what happens to people who talk like that?
Anyway, before the movies for me
I would want to see Obi's life from Ep. 3 to suddenly old Ep. 4 Obi.
id say before 1 2 & 3. I wanna see some old republic stuff!
idk, almost all of these options have already been done by novelists who end up making the stories conflict
I voted after 456, but only because its been beat black and blue... guidelines, if you will. before 123, it would have the potential to end up like the Clone Wars phail... not-star wars in a starwars box
I voted before I, II, and III because the old ones were so much better than the new ones... psh.. What was George THINKING?!
After! Kyle Katarn RULES!!! 
in between 3 and 4 because i would like to seethe force unleashed in real life form, even thought the graphics on the ps3 make it life-like
After! I for one know enough, and want to expand! With all these Clone Wars cartoons and all that, I think I really know enough.
I would want to see a movie about what happens during the Legacy Era, during and after the reign of Darth Krayt.
I'd like to see after 4,5,6. Becuz ther r video games that give most of the story line b4 1,2,3, not many video games or other stuff give any story line after so i'd like to see wer they go from ther.
I go for Before the episodes.
1.) IT'S KOTOR!!!
2.) We can't do after the episodes because all the actors from the original trilogy are old now.
So there
A KoToR movie would be awsome
I'd like to see the Thrawn Trilogy or Correlian Trilogy as movies...
KotOR sounds awesome too..
The era where Darth Krayt reigns doesn't have any of the original characters. Just their descendants. So there.
if it was set between III and IV then it would be star wars the force unleashed as there is nothing you can do as it was the begining of the new empire and all jedi* have died and luke hasnt grown up yet.
so after 6 would be nice as i would like to know what happened
*not all but a majority
i'd like to see something like 200 years past the gcw, because the last recorded event is only 137 years past it, so anything can happen.
I'd like to see one based on the Jedi Knight series. They could start with Dark Forces 2 and then do Jedi Knight II and then Jedi Knight III.
By the the way #17, they just made a new Star Trek and I don't see any of the actors from the original series reprising their roles (except Leonard Nimoy's appearance).
So, there.
Before and after
Before, i would like to see Plageis killed or Bane dicoveryng the Star Forge destroyed at Rakata Sistem, or else a movie of KotOR
After, i would like to see Sidious reborn or see Luke in service of Sidious, and the stupid part that Mara tries to kill Luke and then they stick together to escape, or better see Boba Fett allied with Han after scaped the sarlac with `` a memory wipe ´´ and falling into the sarlac again... and escape again... what about to see the remeant of the clones ? The remant of the Empire ? so much stories to know and i already readed all.
like someone said before, between "Revenge of the Sith" and "A New Hope" has been done by force unleashed. As for after "Return of the Jedi" that was the true ending for me with sidious dying and the empire falling...although I wished it was done more epically instead of ewoks. Now before "The Phantom Menace" it's been done in games,novels, comics and what ever else there is and besides, G.L writing skills have greatly diminished as we can all see in "The Phantom Menace", "Attack of the Clones" and "Revenge of the Sith".
The Thrawn series is the only acceptable era (that I can think of... except maybe the X-Wing series also) after IV, V, VI. The YV story line is creating a new army out of nowhere just to milk the series more and BOTH Legacy stories are idiotic and milking a series also
I wanna see a freakin' Dark Forces movie.
@ 17, u prat, if it was yuuzhan vong or beyond there all old anyway, duh
Old Han Solo? Well we already have old Indiana Jones, so why not?
However tempting a Legacy era movie would be, I still would prefer a movie with Naga Sadow in it.
if they can release a star trek movie, then they can release a star wars movie!
The actors would probably be at a perfect age for the Yuuzhan Vong war or after. KotOR sucks. Period. I'm sick of the clone wars, it's so annoying. And not much besides the stuff in TFU happens between.
But really I don't want them to make any more movies. Lucas salvaged some credibilty with EP3 but EP2 was so crappy it made EP1 look like a masterpiece.
Before Episodes I, II, and III.
A movie explaining the beggining of the dark side of the force.
thrawn trilogy all the way. It was responsible for the rebirth of the expanded universe, and took enough notes from the movies in terms of storytelling and character developement to be deemed worthy of a movie conversion.
just dont let George lucas do it. BRING BACK IRVIN KIRSHNER, DIRECTOR OF THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK!
Ooooooh they can show how Han, and Leia get married and have a kid that goes to the dark side then luke kills him and bad stuff happens and then Luke dies and his son's,son is a real badass and then uuuummmmm yeah, I read lots of comics...
Something showing the last battle for Corsucant would be cool (after Endor) when the Rebels raise the flag over the main palace, or like when the Emperor gets reborn, and he does bad things (I also get my info from Wookiepedia)
i completely agree but Clone wars is alright, not that awful
@12 Err... Kyle Katarn was a Storm Commando... So you could see him between 4 and 5 and between 3 and 4 too!

| | (Update) New Files on SWBFFiles, PotD, and possible contests - Site News
Posted by: Maveritchell on 05-20-2009 @ 23:16 | | | This News Item has been viewed 2561 times! | Star Wars Battlefront 2 News | Hey there SWBFFilers!
It has been a slow past couple of weeks here at SWBFFiles - as you may have noticed. We have been trying to sort through some file upload issues - issues that were inconsistently testable at best. For that reason, file uploads (to the network sites) were temporarily suspended, whether they would work at the moment or not (and as the astute may have noticed, it has worked off and on).
No news is, unfortunately for the site staff here, not good news - while we still haven't received word that file uploading is back to 100%, for the time being we will do our best to upload files as we get them and cross our fingers that nothing goes wrong. It would be unfair to both the users of the site and the file submitters to postpone uploads for any longer, whether we have some minor glitches or not.
So please feel free to continue submitting your files, we'll get 'em up as soon as we can.
----
You may also have noticed some of the PotD archives dross showing through in the past month or so - some of those pictures have been somewhat... less-than-standard. This was intentional. For starters, I found it just plain funny to post pictures I knew were straight-up bad... it's like watching a B-movie. The real reason, of course, is that inevitably we do get a small buildup of "bargain bin" Picture-of-the-Days and I figured, "why not do them all at once?"
Anyway, as often a good friend paraphrases from Vanilla Sky: "you can't appreciate the sweet without the bitter." We'll put up some good pictures now.
----
Also, be thinking about what you might want to see in some kind of contest! Summer's coming up, and sometime in June there is a chance (provided the interest) that we'll host another mapping/modding contest similar to our winter one. Got any neat ideas you want to see as a potential option? Be sure to let me know!

| | Restraining bolt | 13.3% (130) | |
| | Vaporator | 13.3% (130) | |
| | Desert skiff | 11.1% (108) | |

Total: 971 | | Start: 05-12-2009 12:38 | | Last: 05-20-2009 21:47 |
Hmm, I don't see anything "iconic" among the options. But I guess the sandcrawler might be the must reconisable.
#1. I agree. these aren't very iconic. maybe which is the "most iconic of these" of course, if it were another "blaster or lightsaber poll" it would be over-done, so I can see why these would be used.
Ah, the site of a huge chunk of metal on tracks crawling across the sand...
...which is exactly what the poll is asking. Any poll should be read in your head as:
Of the following [insert poll title here]. It doesn't make sense any other way.
Pit droid!
Though you coudl make a piece of art out of any of these, as they are all pretty iconic, I voted Vaporator. And that was a random choice, they're all equal for me. A Vaporator, for isntance, represents the struggle of life in a climate that tries desperately, every day, to wipe it out.
@6:
isn't that what they do in chili? milk clouds or something like that?
I think the pit droid is awsome, forget people, pit droids are the best race crew, plus you can toss them in your trunk when your done racing, they fold up!
I voted Sand crawler, but I seriously think the desert skiff should be second. Common, do people not watch the wrap-up of the whole series?
Anyone who voted vaporator or particularly restraining bolt knows WAY too much about Star Wars...
#9
everyone who visits this site should know enough about star wars to know what a vaporator is!!!
What's a vaporator?
lol
I vote pit droid. They're funny.
If I were to picture each one of these objects in an empty space, one at a time, the sandcrawler reminds me most of Star Wars. But if I were to think of the movies, it would probably be the skiff, because everyone can picture in their head Luke Skywalker holding a green lightsaber in front of him on Jabba's Sand Barge. It's got to be the most iconic Luke picture out there.
this is off topic bvut is ff just not gettin any mods or is mav not just uploading em? the last one was on the 3rd -_-
read the latest news post
The real icons of star wars r: the blue lightsaber, the E-11 blaster rifle, and Darth Vader's Helmet. Duh!
The death star and vader are the true icons, pit droids are cool but they are not iconic.
@16
the pit droids might not be iconic, but they are just excedingly cute in my opinion... I really like them... they're quite funny*, in the film...
* at least as far as you can describe something out of metal as cute or funny...
also another off topic thing but i saw a mod come out yesterday and now its gone, i take it that's to do with the glitch o.O
PIT DROIDS

For those of you wondering (rightly) why you haven't seen any files in about a week, we are currently experiencing some site issues that - while they do not outright prevent file uploading - impair it to a degree where we cannot be 100% sure that files uploaded will be without error.
In response to this, the staff at SWBFFiles is not going to upload files until we see this problem resolved (which should hopefully be shortly; I would have preferred not needing to make a newspost at all) - know that we do have the tech team on this issue.
In the meantime, those of you who have submitted files, rest assured that your files are not going unnoticed. Additionally, while files expire after having been submitted for more than a week and not uploaded, any files approaching that line I have backed up, and with any luck you will not have to resubmit them.
Thanks for your patience; you will know when we have this capability back once files start being uploaded.

has this even existed before this year?
i think is is just a sad attempt to remind people of Star Wars just before the new Star Trek movie comes out
I didn't even know that there was a holiday dedicated to star wars
It's been around but I don't think anyone pays attention to it. I just needed an idea for a poll.
I am actually dressed up as Lando from epV, but I saw playing favourite game, and i'm playing BF2 right now, so i chose that.
Whether it's a real holiday or not, dang it, I'm celebrating!
*3 hours of SWBFII striaght so far*
what happened on this day? o.o
Well, I didn't really know this day was so important. I was reading The Dark Lord Trilogy before this, so I wonder which one I am doing today. Happy May 4th, I guess
I hope everyone does understand the play on words "may the fourth be with you" is
4th may is a sad day for anyone form the netherlands. It's the day before the liberation in WW2, and every year we remember those who died in the war. gunshots, honor ceremony, 2 minutes silence, the whole nine yards.
so no, i am NOT celebrating.
never heard of it until now... on my the 4th i was playing assassins creed... idk if that counts...
May the 4th? Didn't even know it was a star wars holiday... but now i'm going to watch all 6 movies. Straight.
I didn't know it was a Starwars holiday either. I just worked on school from 9 till 7 on the fourth lol.
i'm watching star wars but i also play swbf2 so i don't know which one should i choose.
I've been playing halo trial so I don't think that's very SW related.
well, i'd probably do the last, 3rd and 2nd at different times
I was playing Far Cry 2 on the 4th... Nothing SW related...
I completely forgot about Star Wars day. My dog died early that morning, so I was pretty depressed. Still am.
Played Star Wars Battlefront II Yesterday
Everyone is playing Battlefront including me
What holiday is May the 4th?
Call me a mutant, but what IS May 4th? I think most of the Star Wars movies came out in May, maybe that's it? Anyhow, totally by coincidence, I've been renting all six movies from our library and watching them, (although not in any particular order, just whenever they come in.) I've got them all down except for Revenge of the Sith, which is fitting, since I think that one is coolest. Well, Happy Holiday to all! (Whatever it is...)
Jediboy
it was the 4th of may when this poll was put up maybe?...
aye also the apply to volunteer thing has mucked up again..
Ah crud, I forgot!!
May the 4th = May the Force (be with you)
It's Star Wars day!
lol heard about this on the radio
ummmm well i went to disney world and road the star wars ride.... but thats not on there
In the Netherlands, may the 4th is the day we remember the death of WWII, and hold a 1 min. silence.......
This would be the perfeact time to try out my new Fixer clone commando suit! So Uper-geek!
uber was spelled uper sry!
around this time we aussies remember the folks who died in WWI. Lest we forget the ANZAC's.
Anyway I'd be playing sport games more than star wars, but star wars still interests me a lot still.
ha i was doing homework so i guess that counts as nothing star wars related???
But i DID write a paper on star wars lol so i did SOMETHING 
STAR WARS ROCKS !!!
Huh...
Well my interests, as it would happen do span beyond Star Wars...
Although last year (or the year before?) I did go to a Star Wars 30th celebration.
I met Boba Fett, hilarious.
it was last year, i remember seein it in ma comic XD

Jedi Knight III: Skirata Mandalorians
It isn't often that I get to rant and rave, so please excuse me if I sporadically lose it during this review. Yes, this WILL be a rant and a rave, so if you feel you cannot handle feel free to turn away, shield your eyes, or burst into tears. Or all three, hell, I don't care. The Republic Commando books are one of my favorite series, and I'm waiting right now for Order 66 to be released in paperback (It should be coming out this month) before I buy it.

Jedi Knight III: Red Nekuva
What we have here is a very sparkly reskin of the Alien X skin! This is a simple, but very effective reskin; there aren’t really any textures on the skin, it is all black. But the ‘shiny shader’ and all those sparkly stars make quite a big visual impact, never mind those menacing red eyes.

If enough time is spent on it then it could end up with multiple era's and variety of features
but if i have to choose then i pick 1
I would agree. But I don't care for simplistic games too much. (Assuming "simplistic" defines SWB2, Halo [the original at least] and "complex" describes games like Bioshock, Assassin's Creed, etc.)
#1 is right
"A more simplistic game focusing on multiple eras with fewer and less complex features."
This is what BF is.
"An elaborate game focusing on a single era, with a large variety of features and game modes."
This is more like TFU or KotOR or JK. If you want that, get one of those games.
I voted the former.
Yeah the whole point of Star Wars Battlefront is to play as who you want how you want, they shouldn't limit the time periods too much, I like variance, and perhaps
chose who fights who as well so the same sides don't always battle?
I'd like them to focus on the Clone Wars, adding more Jedi like Kit Fisto and Agen Kolar instead of focusing on the main characters like Obi Wan and Mace. They could make the clone wars so much better in so many ways
BF is fun cause you can be any faction you want. Not just the the goody-goody sides.
I'd like a game with 5 eras but all the same features as Battlefront 2.
The eras I'd like to see are KOTOR (I know we got the conversion for that but I'd like to see how Lucasarts would do it too), Galactic Civil War (Duh), Clone Wars (Also duh), "The Dark Times" (another already modded one I'd like to see Lucasarts do), and finally New Republic (centering around the JKark Forces and JK2-3 games and some of the books set in that time).
Weird. What the heck happened with that smiley? Anyway was saying Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2.
I guess I'd go for the more elaborate one. Although the BF style of play allows for the freedom and variety, a more elaborate game could also be made with the feel of battlefront. But the question would then seem to be: how far do you go while still maintaining the battlefront experience rather than another RPG? (not that I don't like RPG's
I'd go with the "A more simplistic game focusing on multiple eras with fewer and less complex features." Because I didn't like it how BF2 just concentrated on the 501st. I hope they create different legions for different planets and not just one legion for the entire universe. I also hope that they put in different eras, but still keep the classics. Like they could put in the New Republic era with Kyp Durron, Jacen Solo, Anakin Solo, Yuuzhan Vong, etc. Plus a not new ships would be cool too.
none of both.
A game focussing on Mutiple Era's with Complex AI and with a large variety of features and game modes.
Bigger meaner Nasty'er space battle's and Ai hero's so not with a mod A realistic Jedi Tempel more sorts of skins on different planets for the Republic and Cis and Rebellion.
And wath I realy would like to see is A battle. not just some sort of battle but a Battle that goes from Space to land without load time and any flaws That my friends would be the best Star Wars game ever
Haha. #8 put a parentheses the the letter D, as in "Jk ) D ark Forces"
) D ) D ) D
I chose #1. because hopefully, people will mod it, and end up adding new eras anyway, like what happened to battlefront two. so if the original creators did their jobs and made the best engine possible, they could leave it to the experienced modders out there to increase the content. to many times, game developers docus on to much content, but miss something in the source code, or base code whatever. content can be moddified by modders, it's probably not very easy, if at all possible to moddify the core engine of a game. so if thats messed up in the making, then theres no fix for that. anyway...
I'd like to see BF3 resembling something like BF2 with a bunch of mods like BFX or others similar with much better graphics and gameplay. Most important is the amount of time they put into this. If they rush it just so they can hurl it out onto shelves as soon as they can, it is going to be crap.
i'd prefer summit with more eras, but if u hav more its basically not as good in features. so i'd go for the 1st
well i would vote for:
An elaborate game focusing on both era, with a large variety of features and game modes.
if it was there
yeah but then everyone would vote for that one and it would defeat the purpose of the poll lol
there should be a third option called "mostly the same except more options and details" cause they decided that they wont finish swbf3 but i forget why it was on one of those forum thingys i think so my idea lol i accidently typed three smileys and it wouldnt let me post it... thats a relief
Id rather muiltiplayer with complex features......
All Eras
*Mandalorian Wars
*Jedi Civil War
*Invasion of Naboo
*Clone Wars
*Force Unleashed
*Galactic Civil War
*New Republic
yuuzhan vong wars? (dunno how to spell it)
I do admit the long list of eras and heroes I’ve seen would be nice, but that would make the game impossible to play unless you are a mega star wars fan and know tons about the expanded universe, they need a game focusing on GCW and CW but mega detailed like ground/space combat, large detailed maps(so hoth has a bigger echo base), lots of customization so each player stands out in multiplayer, correct capital hangers and larger interior and detailed skins and models. Modder’s will be able to spend time making KOTOR and TFU eras because if GCW and CW are awesome then we don’t need to mod them.
Because if it comes up saying do you want to play as Bossk??? How are the people who don’t know much about Star Wars gonna know who he is?
and people know Darth Vader, Luke, Obi-wan etc. because there classic star wars characters that everyone knows who they are, correct?
A lot of you may of seen the BF3 leaked footage on the web somewhere and you will be looking forward to it if it ever comes out and i would like alot of hero’s for expanded universe but as you have seen with the Conversion pack etc modder’s can make other characters/heroes and maps that you guys may want so if it only comes with the heroes everyone knows and if only has the maps coruscant, endor, hoth etc i would worry to much because we’ve seen what modder’s can do when they work hard.
this poll is a bit biased. why do i have to choose between the two, when each one has things that i like? you could still make a bf game deceptively deep whilst retaining the whimsical atmosphere of the first 2. If you want an arcadey bf game, go and play renegade squadron.
A combo like #23,
An elaborate game focusing on multiple eras, with a large variety of features and game modes.
shouldnt there be more choices? I disagree with both
this is the best place ever
It seems as though some of you don't understand the purpose of a poll. Just pick the one of the two choices that you'd PREFER.
A more simplistic game focusing on multiple eras with fewer and less complex features.
That`s something that BTF 1 had, but now its time for something new
If I may say, I think lucasarts should do something towards the Space maps.. the capital ships are just too small at 1/3 their original size...
and, possibly, a few more capital ships, and prefrably, a bit more movie orientated..
that would be nice..

Total: 956 | | Start: 04-16-2009 19:25 | | Last: 04-27-2009 07:52 |
Hahaha, funny question, since none of us have a clue who they even are. I do know Dr. Evazan is the guy who said to Luke "I have the death sentence on 12 systems".
Totally agree with #1 bye means of the choices. Didn't recognize any of them so I just picked Dr. Evazan because I definitely didn't remember a Dr.
Some of us probably do. I did. They were all posted from memory.
Dr. Evazan & Ponda Baba were the human and Aqualish that got involved with Luke & Obi-Wan (Ponda lost his arm), Kabe was a funny little rodent-looking thing, Wuher was the bartender, Momaw Nadon was the Ithorian, and Figrin D'an was the leader of the Modal Nodes (you know, the cantina band?). Brush up on your trivia!
mav, ur a sw nerd i just picked Figrin D'an since its the strangest name o.O
Don't remember any of them but ponda lol so I just voted Monaw
I know Ponda and Evanzan because I recently watched Robot Chicken Star Wars... that's how I'll rememebr the characters now.
kabe I think he was the short mouse looking alei nwho took the drink from Wuher
@#6 Nice dude. Yeah, that one was funny.
I remembered them all but drew a blank on Dr. E for a few seconds so I voted him.
Jediboy
P.S. Kabe is a Chara-Fan Mav, not a "funny little rodent-looking thing." I LOVE correcting people!
P.P.S. @#4 I think we're all Star War s nerds here!
Evazan and Pando Baba should definitely be remembered, as they both had speaking interactions with the main character! For some freaky reason, I know Mamaw Nadon and Figrin D'an, so I just chose between the last two.
at #8 ye, very true but mav's a very big nerd on sw
Yeah, I knew most of them, but I had never heard of Kabe so I said him. Looks like most people agree with me too.
To be honest, I got into the Star Wars CCG when it first came out, and all of those characters were featured on cards. I learned more SW trivia just from playing that card game than probably anything else.
oh, cool- bah has to be more than 10 letters so i just added this bit
I hardly remember any of them o.O
i remember all of them
Haha.. i watched that one a long time ago, and after he losses hes arm he losses his job as a desiner! lol funny i tell ya!
(YaYa i know im weard)
~501st_Trooper~
I wish there was a "All of them" button. lol.
yeh, that wulda been beest, and i swear that wuld've been top
I hav e NO idea who ant of them are
I remember the Aqualish, the Dr and the bartender... but I never knew that they got a name . I tought they would be "Cantina Thug 1 and Cantina Thug 2" .
Dr. Evazan was the guy that said.... He doesn't like you..... I can't believe people don't know him?
we know him its jsut the namez
what the crap i never heard of any of these things
Everyone! Kabe is a FEMALE!!!
Thank you.
Jediboy
P.S. @12 : Pretty cool, Mav!
P.P.S. And yes, my friends have accused me many a time of being a Star Wars Nerd . And yes, they are right, I am. So nerdy that I would go to the trouble of typing this post because I hate to see people mutate Star Wars facts.
Robot chicken rules!! but ya Dr i didn't reacall
Your asking us which person we dont know, but how can we know which one we dont know if we dont know who they are?*brain splodes* I guess i'll go with momaw, since i havent the slightest clue who he is, i know the rest, except for kabe
this is the most random poll Ive ever heard! I picked the strangest name, since I recognized none

Roleplaying maps are my favorite type because, well, I'm a roleplayer! How about that? I've reviewed a few RP maps in the past and most of them were somewhat lacking in the... pretty department. It seems that roleplaying mappers just find a map and shove in as much RP content as possible without trying to make it look all that pretty; fortunately that's not the case in this map and the mapper has managed to make a military base, something that COULD have been a bunch of ugly gray boxes everywhere, into something pleasing.

Jedi Knight III: Inferno
Dayum. Daaaaayyyy-um. There's nothing like post-apocalyptic industrial complexes to get me going in the morning, especially if they're well done! Let me tell you that this map is well done; it's very bloody well done. The map's name, Inferno, I'm assuming comes from the gigantic raging pit of fire in the center of the map.

BryanWee20 makes his FileFront modding debut today, with this new gun model for the original Knights of the Old Republic game. This gun is based on the DC-17 blaster pistol, used by ARC Captain Fordo. As you can see, this is a fairly sturdy looking gun, which looks to pack quite a punch.

Jedi Knight III: Hirman's Asajj Ventress FINAL
It seems that there is a lot of submissions flying in that are based on models and/or skins from The Clone Wars mini-film, as well as the TV series. I'm actually becoming quite fond of it! With the Forcemod developer's permission, the author decided to reskin Asajj Ventress with a ''new look.''

Star Trek: Legacy: Elysion Class
This ship is extremely impressive looking, much like a Nova-Intrepid Hybrid. The ship looks very streamlined, the ship looks proportionately balanced, and the model has good smoothing quality. The textures are good too, not too realistic but they definitely suit the ship's overall appearance.

Call of Duty 2: German 6th Army Winter Skin (2.0)
Here we have a cool skin by a new developer in our database known as John_Mclane. And no, he's not the guy from the movie Die Hard, although that is a good movie stick out tongue. Anyways, this is his first skin and he's made it just for the WCP mod. Basically, this will replace the stock German winter skins with the type of parka seen in CoD1.

i test mods in single but i beta test and play v1.3 online
cool awesome
I mostly play mods/maps by myself since I rarely see any of the more updated maps out there.
Almost everybody on here plays singleplayer according to the poll...these people should REALLY try multi.
wtf, so far i'm only one who's voted Multiplayer-only XD
Huh, well i own the no-disc version so I cannot play online at all, only through LAN connections can I play multiplayer...
I mostly play singleplayer, because my connection is too bad to play a proper online game....
well i'm a clan ldr and due to my gay connection i cant join servers, and yet i run a succesful clan so blackbird thats barely anythin
damn i read it to fast i voted for the wrong one! i said rarely single but i meant mostly single.
I almost never play single in general.... Multi is so much more fun whether its with a mod or not.
LOL all the adds for filefront are now porno. So this is how they keep filefront from going bankrupt?
Well, I don't see anything like that. I just got a lot of little games as advertisements where you have to enter the number of your mobile phone when you won (lol).
@ 8: I also can't join any Servers in Battlefront. But I can join a Server in any other game I have. Strange, isn't it?
yeh, but i also cant join on eaw or foc and all 3 of those games i really like! grr...
Also MasterFang i posted that on the potd aswell
I hardly play MP on Battlefront cause of the lag. (Has to be my crappy internet as I have new computers) I play JK2 more often on MP and have done RC to. (Though I quit cause those folks are a nasty crowd)
Anyway I really only download maps. I've never downloaded a game-changing mod other then free-cam.
yeh i know what u mean on rc...there are the nice guys, guys who dont talk, then these stuck up clan f****** who i seem to always get into a fight with... Also ty, bf2's gotta cruddy online connection for everyone
I hate how when you wanna try to use a fun weapon (concussion rifle or heavy repeater) then they all start screaming: F----- NOOB! GET OUT!
#11. That's nothing to LOL about. It's disgusting.
off topic: those ads are really bad, there are children on this website, someone really needs to change them
why are all of the downloads gone?
There are database issues we're having right now. The files haven't gone anywhere (as you can see if you click the popular downloads' files), the lists are just not working right now. I'm sure the tech team will be all over this, but you must remember that this is a holiday weekend and not a workday.
thanks mav. the files are all back now anyway
I really like BFX and convo online, as well as Borus II Stunt Course. But it is hard to find a server that runs them. If you see me running a server join it.
EaW and FoC are the only games i can really play online.
but whenever i do i have to put my graphics on lowest because everybody else have bad PC's i
mines pretty bad too though, which is why i have an extenal hard drive!
This is what I never liked about SWBF2, nobody is willing to play mods and maps online. If people would start running servers with added maps on them, it would probably keep the game alive longer... It's undoubtedly the reason Jedi Academy has lasted so long...
yeh but on 1.1 (and no i'm not a 1.1 nobster) its considered nawby to play with mods, but they bring some fun to the game and mg-12 play with em too, and now x is makin new skins
