It's finally going to be released tomorrow. SWBattlefiled (http://www.swbattlefield.jolt.co.uk/) is shaping up to be the next great mod for BF1942 imho. Graphics are great and gameplay looks good. The only downside is Lucas Art being tight and restricting the developers from using proper copyrighted names.
Otherwise, this will definitely be a mod to download tomorrow and start playing!!
Game on!

Sad part is, your right, Lucas Arts never made to many good star wars games, only a select few.

it looks very promising and stays true to the universe (somewhat). the numeric ammo in the vehicles/ships bothers me it would be perfect if they changed it to an energy based system. that's just my opinion.

Only thing I don't like is the AT-ST animation. However, it will be great!

I wathched the preview movie, and in my opinion, the AT-ST scout walkers look goofy when they are walking. But, the mod does look very cool. I must download when it comes out!
EDIT:
LOL Great minds must think alike. Same idea, one minute apart.

if it's a user made mod then i don't see how they could do that, it's not like they are selling the mod or anything. Lucas Arts, instead of restricting the names, should cut a deal with the people that made the mod to put a SW Galaxies or JK3 ad in the intro or something. to me that would be a better choice.
one of these days i'm going to have to buy BF1942, i'm missing out on a lot of great stuff :(

It says in the faq we will need Version 1.31 of BF1942. Do they mean 1.31 or later? Right?

I downloaded it yesterday. It's about as good as I anticipated.
Recommend all to download!
EDIT: Forgot to mention, the audio is great!!! The AT-ST is majorly funky :) You can have people in the missile bay thingo on the side of the ATST aswell.
Really does put you in the Star Wars environment!

i got this mod yesterday. and i dunno... i jsut cant get a feel for it. :( i REALLY wanna like it. one thing i hate is the fact that the rebal sniper rifle is SOOOO lame. the imperials have a lazer sniper, but the rebals jsut have a regular old (old as in 1942 rifle) gun :(. another thing. if you thought helos were hard to fly in DC, try flyin the millenium falcon!! i have only seen ONE person get it out of the hanger without blowing up. :( i dunno, im gonna go play some later, but for the most part im gonna go back to DC and wait for the next update. i think this could be a REALLY great mod.
oh yah, one more thing.. WTF?!!?!? NO JEDI?!?! :p

do you need expansion to play this?
lazerin

What do you mean by expansion?
All you need is a copy of Battlefield 1942 and the mod which you download from the site.

Finally got the link to work....ignore the above seems their website was being stubborn for a day.
I am getting it now....83hours at 666bytes/sec:eek:
Friggen roomie is hogging the banwidth. I Cant wait for my router so the bandwidth is shared better. To get high speeds again I have to unplug our lan cable...big pain in the keister.
Edit: Sorry I got the numbers wrong for my line speed: 1.4megabits/s and my line is advertised as 1.2..so I aint complaining.

I tried it the other night and want to like it, but it still needs some work IMO.

It may take a few days before you get a good mirror(A lot of traffic I presume for this mod)....the 2 I found were both pretty slow.

Go to www.filemirrors.com and search for gcmod. You'll get a nice list of servers hosting it, be sure to download the 0.1b patch too!

I finally found a good mirror at filemirrors. Make sure to search for gcmod0.1a instead of swbattlefield.
