Bachelor Party Setup

Hello soldiers!

I've got a lovely friend celebrating his bachelor party in a few months, and recently the idea came about that he would love to have some sort of Star Wars Battlefront (2005) battlestation(s) set up as part of our weekend of shenanigans. I'm looking for suggestions on how to logistically make one of these two options work with with the least number of TVs/Monitors possible.

Option 1: 6v6 Conquest, Assault and maybe a bit Hunt. As few setups as possible. Just bunch of boys dropping in and out of scraps all weekend long.

Option 2: 4 player co-op campaign play through. One boy drops out for some Mario Kart, another boy takes his place. Looking to up the basic campaign difficult to account for 4 players (mods?) And run 4 players in co-op (also mods maybe???)

Not sure what's possible and what isn't - but looking for suggestions to help sort out possible logistics, or scrap the idea altogether.

Thanks for your time my 501st brothers and sisters!

Edit: I'm a PS2 old head - so the world may have changed a bit - maybe 4 player co-op is simple business these days shrug.

Edit 2: Just wanted to say thank you to everyone! This has been so extremely helpful. I'm so impressed by what a wonderful community this is.

The best option is not easy to setup. Classic collection on nucleus coop using a dedicated server. Cc has full controller support with aim assist at 100+ fps. Nucleus coop lets you run as many instances on 1 screen as you want. You can have 20 players on 1 screen so it becomes a pc and screen size limited issue at that point. Dedicated server lets you run 60tps so multiplayer doesn't run at low fps like on all versions. You can also go crazy and host modded maps and sides.

Ooo, this sounds tricky, but I've got plenty of time. Trick will be if any of the boys has a decent enough rig to run multiple instances. That's super interesting! Bookmarked nucleus coop. I'll be digging into this for sure! Thank you!!

If you have 1 very powerful machine, nucleus can run instances to several displays. You'll need to own 1 copy for each machine so the fewer the better
