  13.  
  14. [color=#FFFF40]Question #1[/color] - Where can I download the ModTools?
  15. [color=#FFFF40]Answer[/color] - The Battlefront 2 ModTools can be found on [url=http://www.moddb.com/games/star-wars-battlefront-ii/downloads/star-wars-battlefront-ii-mod-tools-pc][color=#FF8040][b]ModDB[/b][/color][/url], [url=http://www.mediafire.com/download/igcce82h35qedzv/swbattlefrontiimodtools.exe][color=#FF8040][b]MediaFire[/b][/color][/url] or [url=http://gamefront.online/files/4792414/swbattlefrontiimodtools.exe][color=#FF8040][b]Gamefront.online[/b][/color][/url]
  16.  
  17. [color=#FFFF40]Question #2[/color] - How do you install mods for BF2?
  18. [color=#FFFF40]Answer[/color] - Open the file you downloaded (i.e. the .zip, .rar, .7z file) and extract the 3-letter ID folder to this location:
  19. C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData\addon
  20. If the addon folder does not exist then create one inside of your GameData folder.
  21. Always read the README file contained in the map/mod archive, if there is one, since it may explain special instructions for that particular installation.
  22.  
  23. [color=#FFFF40]Question #3[/color] - I've installed a mod map, but when I go to add it to a playlist it shows up as %ABC%, what's wrong?
  24. [color=#FFFF40]Answer[/color] - Install the v1.1 patch found on [url=http://help.starwars.com/articles/en_US/FAQ/Where-can-I-get-the-STAR-WARS-Battlefront-II-update?section=Star-Wars][color=#FF8040][b]StarWars.com[/b][/color][/url], [url=http://www.moddb.com/games/star-wars-battlefront-ii/downloads?filter=t&kw=official&category=4][color=#FF8040][b]ModDB[/b][/color][/url], or [url=https://www.mediafire.com/folder/xfybwp7jg7fnn/SWBF2_updates][color=#FF8040][b]MediaFire[/b][/color][/url]
  25.  
  26. [color=#FFFF40]Question #4[/color] - I have the CD version of SWBF2 and I get a binkw32.dll error when trying to launch the [b]BF2_modtools.exe[/b], what's wrong?
  27. [color=#FFFF40]Answer[/color] - The BF2_modtools.exe is the debug executable, copy it from [b]C:\BF2_ModTools[/b] and paste it in the same folder as your [b]BattlefrontII.exe[/b], usually:
  28. C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData
  29. you can launch [b]BF2_modtools.exe[/b] and play your map, then exit or let it crash to generate a [b]BFront2.log[/b] located in that same folder.
  30. If you encounter a "Please insert CD 1" dialog or have the DVD or digital download version of SWBF2, use the modified BF2_modtools.exe from [url=https://www.dropbox.com/s/htu70rfincn3j50/BF2_modtools_NoDVD.7z?dl=0][color=#FF8040][b]HERE[/b][/color][/url] or [url=http://www.mediafire.com/file/dnlosg34n55bvcq/BF2_modtools_NoDVD.exe][color=#FF8040][b]HERE[/b][/color][/url].
  31.  
  32. [b]Note to Vista users:[/b]
  33. If you can't find your [b]BFront2.log[/b] it may be saved to this location:
  34. C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData
  35. or click on the [url=http://gametoast.com/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=22981&p=395232&hilit=compatibility+files#p395232][color=#FF8040][b]Compatibility Files[/b][/color][/url] button in the GameData folder.
  36.

  38. [color=#FFFF40]Answer[/color] - Yes it does.
  39.  
  40. [color=#FFFF40]Question #6[/color] - I'm using Windows Vista/7/8.x/10 and I munged my new map, but it isn't showing up here:
  41. C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData\Addon
  42. so where is it?
  43. [color=#FFFF40]Answer[/color] - Your newly munged map might have been copied to this location:
  44. C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData\Addon
