My friend installed the conversion pack, and every map he loads crashes before it's even loaded. I used it (it is awesome btw) on the same maps w/ the same configurations, and it worked fine. We have more or less the same computer's and our versions of BF2 are the same. Can anyone help?
Thanks.

Tell your friend to either:

a) Lower his graphical settings (lighting lower, bloom off, LOD ++)
b) Delete (or move to somewhere else) his addon folder's contents and reinstall (past versions of the Conversion Pack may cause this, as may too many maps).

Congratulations on completing your mod. I'm a little busy now so I won't be able to play right away, but I'm sure it will be good. :greeny:

@Zeted: XP
@Mav: That most likely explains it.

I'm already working on uploading two other mirrors of the file, one at ModDB and another at SWBFFiles. Once those get uploaded, I plan on uploading the installer to my personal Filefront page. For right now, though, you guys'll have to bear with me - my internet's only so fast and I'm already uploading on two separate computers.

If someone who already has it and has a fast internet connection wants to make another filefront mirror, then please feel free to do so - let me know if you have and I'll edit the link into the first post. Thanks!

Remember to be patient and wait for the installer to start. It won't start up immediately for everyone. If you have some other problem, please clarify it and I'll do what I can to fix it.

For those of you who think you're having problems because of the DOS window, go to <swbf2 dir>\GameData\v1.3patch\ (note: not <swbf2 dir>\v1.3path\) and double-click on menu.bat. This is the v1.3 patch's configuration menu. You can install/uninstall the v1.3 patch, enable/disable award effects, enable/disable custom sides, enable/disable custom HUD, enable/disable custom map colors. Choosing Uninstall (number 2) even when the v1.3 patch isn't installed (just press 2, even though the option is hidden, its number still works) will refresh your main lvls and will fix any problems due to bad lvl files.

If you're low on disk space you can delete the <swbf2 dir>\GameData\v1.3patch\ folder. However, you will no longer be able to configure the v1.3 patch. You can always download the patch and reextract it to get the menu options back.

Not exactly, but I would recommend installing this over a fresh copy of SWBF2 (patched to 1.1). There should be no error if that's what you've done. If there still is, let me know the directory your BattlefrontII.exe is in.

It sounds like you had a bad or incomplete download. I would recommend deleting the copy of the installer you have and redownloading.

We have another thread to ask these kinds of questions, but she is in a number of hero assaults, and she is the hero for the Sith on the following planets: Naboo: Prototype, Coruscant, and Concord Dawn.

Hes talking about the ConvoPackInstaller.exe you downloaded. Make sure you have enough free space, the pack takes up around 7-8GB.

I put up a mirror at http://zerted3.getmyip.com:8585/mirrors/ Use a good download manager and expect to it be slow.

Thanks, Zerted. Link added to first post.
