A few days ago, we informed you about the restoration of the multiplayer mode for Star Wars Battlefront 2 2005. And today we believe is the perfect time to inform you about a new mod that adds 25 new maps and 5 game modes.
This mod, called Star Wars Battlefront Conversion Pack, was originally released in 2008. However, a new version that makes it compatible with the game’s latest version was rolled out just yesterday.
This mod also brings a new era and a substantial amount of expanded unit content to the game.
Those interested can download its full 2.0 version from here, and its 2.2 patch from here. Then, you can download the updated Zerted’s 1.3 patch from here. This patch makes it compatible with the latest version of the game.
Now I don’t know how many are still playing this classic Battlefront game, however it’s good witnessing modders supporting it. There is also a Texture overhaul mod for Star Wars Battlefront 2 2005. Those interested in improving the game’s visuals can download its 1.5b version from here. According to its description, this version improves the realism of version 1.5, by balancing every configuration. Its latest update was in March so I don’t know whether modder ‘harrisonfog’ is still working on it or not.
Have fun everyone!

I wasted all day downloading the beta for Battlefront 2 off Origin and trying to get it to run. Opens for a few seconds then closes. Thanks to EA’s complete lack of originality it’s impossible to search for help because this game pops up since they have the same name. I think I’ll just skip the new game and download this. It’ll probably be more fun anyways.
EA be like: no one will notice the bugs if the game wont start
For anyone else who’s having this issue; put “2017” in the search box. It’ll limit it to posts from 2017, which should substantially reduce the Pandemic Studios-era search results.
Though, you’d probably be better off following Infected’s example & just downloading the original with this mod, rather than getting in bed with EA & DICE, honestly. Especially now that BF2 (2005)’s multiplayer is back online.

This mod has more content than the new game, think about that for a second.
Alot of mods are like that actually. Remember Rise of the Reds for Generals? Heck, Shockwave had more content than all C&C games ;p (okay not all but it was still alot ;p)
Its usually like that.. barebone games, and a mod that fixes it. Its been like since Half Life 1.
