WITH EXPLICIT PERMISSION FROM US MOD CREATORS TO UPLOAD, this is the official modpack for the Battlefront Plus servers! Many of the best gameplay mods included in one download that automatically sets up your load order exactly how it's intended to be. Features dozens of new characters and well over a hundred new abilities.

A major problem with just collecting mods as they get released, is that so many are interfering with each other, and also after upgrades/updates, often many mods stop working. But, trying test/figure out which mods still work when one has half a TB of mods is a full-time job.

Wow, fantastic work @37mm very much appreciated and will save users a HUGE amount of time and effort let alone damage to their failing brain capacity and eyesight... this will become a must-have-instant-classic ... THANKS!!!

Very nice. Yeah I did one of these many moons ago for CMBN before the MG module was released. Was sick of people asking me for a link to all my mods when I was youtubing. Wonder if @Bootie would be interested in hosting as a separate section in CMMODSIV. Would help out the newbies as a starting point.

So mods can work with CMFR now? That's absolutely great and exactly what I hoped some kind person with skills would do some day. It was a shame that all the work put in mods for CMRT was lost after Fire and Rubble release.

@37mm that looks great. I may have missed this but is Monster Mash II available as a download somewhere? Monster Mash made me buy RT (my first CM title at the time), and Monster Mash II looks great fun too.

I went thru the CMFI "all in one modpack" and noticed that there are no vehicles. However, between Aris and Umlaut and a few others, there are at least 74 vehicles available. There also exist a large number of CMFI uniforms, sounds, UI and FX mods. But, one would have to get those from CMMODS.

One thing that surprised me is how few Terrain mods (buildings, trees etc) there seem to be for CMFI compared to the other titles. In case some other software like JSGME deleted em, I checked all my BU HD's and could find hardly anything.

Hi, mi name is Mayorcete, better known as Revan Shan on English forums and here, on ModDB. I was modder once, but now I'm just a youtuber from Spain, owner of MayorceteGamingTV and BattlefrontESP. I was asked by my suscribers to reupload the "Star Wars Battlefront II: Ultimate Pack", the biggest Battlefront pack ever. Battlefront fans couldn't find the pack anywhere else as the links died apparently. That's why I started with this project: BATTLEFRONT FOREVER.

I had the intention of uploading not only the "Star Wars Battlefront II: Ultimate Pack", but also other maps and mods difficult or impossible to find elsewere. Years ago the Battlefront fans could easily find tons of mods out there in forums or upload sites, mainly GameToast and Filefront. But nowadays it seems 99% of the addons created by the BF modders got lost and all we can find is a bunch of dead links.

I think the Battlefront community diserved something like this and I feel that links here will last much longer than those from other webs. I trust ModDB and I want all of you to enjoy what modders have worked on throughout the years. Spread the word, share any maps and mods that might got lost and overall... ENJOY!

Hola, me llamo Mayorcete, aunque por estos lares me muestro como Revan Shan. Fui modder una vez, pero ahora soy solo un youtuber espaol, dueo de MayorceteGamingTV y de BattlefrontESP. Mis suscriptores me pidieron que resubiera el "Star Wars Battlefront II: Ultimate Pack", el mayor pack de Battlefront que hayamos visto jams. Aparentemente los fans de Battlefront no podan encontrarlo porque los links para bajarlo estaban caidos. As es como decid darle caa a este proyecto: BATTLEFRONT FOREVER.

Tena la intencin de subir no solo el "Star Wars Battlefront II: Ultimate Pack", sino tambin otros mapas y mods difciles de encontrar en otros lados. Hace aos los fans de Battlefront podan encontrar fcilmente toneladas de mods por ah en foros y plataformas de subida, esencialmente GameToast y Filefront. Pero hoy en da parece que el 99% de los addons creados por los modders de BF han desaparecido y solo nos queda un puado de links que no llevan a ningn sitio.

Creo que la comunidad de Battlefront se mereca algo como esto y creo que aqu los links durarn mucho ms que en otras webs. Confio en ModDB y quiero que todos podis disfrutar los que los modders se han currado durante aos. Pasad la bola, compartid cualquier mapa o mod que creis que ya no se peude encontrar por ah, y sobre todo... DISFRUTAD!

This comment section is full of a lot of old controversy huh? Well from what I can tell some mod creators don't like the fact their mods are in this pack and most of the public seems to not understand why. If you created a mod or anything in general that you put hard effort in, and then see someone take it and reupload it only to get more success than you did, you would want it gone. It doesn't matter if the person reuploading your mod gave you credit or not, you created it and you have every right to want it removed. It doesn't matter if the original mod doesn't have a download anymore, the mod creator has every right for what happens to it. If the reuploader asked permission to reupload the person's mod, then they can do it but from what I'm seeing this RevanShan reuploaded a pack someone else made who didn't get permission from mod makers. However, because this pack can be easily modified, mod makers still have a right to want their mods removed.

Any mods that change it to the TCW TV show models, I know there is some mods in development. but I managed to download mod that changes some maps to some legions, So I was wondering if there was any mods that add it in that available to download

This person didn't steal the mods, he just took a pack some one else made who stole the mods. The thing is though since the pack can be easily modified, RevanShan should remove mods that mod creators don't want and since he isn't, it is theft in a way. These people using arguments like, "Your mod got more attention in this pack than the original" and "He put your name in the credits" just shows how idiotic people are and don't know how it feels to get something you worked on stolen. Then you have people who whine that this mod is reviving mods that don't exist anymore and then use the argument, "Why would you create the mod only to not want it to be played?" which also shows their idiocy.

That said, everything changes ...
that an action is supported by a good intention, not guaranteed to be good ...
Why not try to contact he and ask you kindly to grant the credits corresponding to the mods? without resorting to fight...

He does not have permission from the modders. Take AQT's mod, for example. He asked him to remove it and it is still there. He has no proof of permission from these modders, as most of them are no longer active.

I do not understand your point of view is counterproductive. Why you do not stop cry and you try to be useful to the community and reach a useful according to Mayorcete?
I don't see the point of this war, he is not saying this mod is from him. You don't have rigths from this mod because there is no patent in your work. Same can say Star wars to you because you are using star wars name, in a game that you don't created.
I'm sure that if you talk with him tu put your name somewhere and some links there will be no problem. In total war there are meny mods that use other mods and there is no problem because the important think is to give more life to the game.
You can take profit a very good profit(not economic obiusly) if you change your main.

Man, the people play more the mod pack than the mods for separate, some mods the people dont know it, are better because he are promotion of the mods of other people and he not have lucracion for do it (Sorry for mi english basic haha).

The uploader never claimed they had created these mods, and outright states that they are simply compiling them for easier access. If someone didn't want their work distributed for free online, why allow anyone with access to a computer the ability to download it in the first place?

First of all, he is not simply reuploading them for easier access. He is combining mods into addon packs (as well as shipping early versions with a pirated copy of the game). Say you are an artist. You wouldn't want your art to be put in a book of other people's art WITHOUT your permission, only to have your name somewhere in the back of the book. Every single mod here has been uploaded somewhere online by the author, where they intended it to be stored, and can be found with a quick google search.

OK, well I didn't know about the pirated versions. However, regarding the mods themeselves if an artist is giving free prints of his artwork to anyone and everyone, he can't hope to control what people do with it afterwards. Trying to micromanage the internet over free content is likely to lead to a stroke.

That's why many modders, including myself, have a readme in the file with permissions: for example, "please don't rip assets from the mod and do not redistribute". He can't control what people do for personal use, but when you redistribute, that's a whole different story.

And its because of that that RevanShan is in the right here. Those modders did not do their job as modders in an attempt to get their work to the greatest amount of people.
That's why they shouldn't be mad when someone attempts to spread their work to a new group of players, basically attempting to make their mod more popular.

Now those same modders would ask that their only iteration of their work on this website be taken down, and thus causing its loss to an entire community of potential players. In this case I believe it is the modder's fault for not making their work easily available to a mod consumer like me.

Modding is a service industry, a free one, but still a serivce industry; this means you go to the customers, not the other way around. As such i believe that there are only a few cases where a modder can legitimately demand that it be taken down.
1. If their mod is properly represented on this site, in which case their presence here is un-needed.
2. If proper credit is not established, in which case RevanShan would either remove the mod or give proper credit. The modder should put their mod up on the website as well.
3. If the mod developer or team is doing so for profit. either by selling the mod or by revenue from visits to a specific website. In this case the mod team should make a page and direct the ModDB users to that website for the download. And RevanShan should remove the mod from the compilation.
(as to #3 I know of at least one modder who does this, Nommada Firefox who always directs people to Firefoxccmods.com to get the download, but still keeps a page here to generate interest for the mod.)
