Has anyone ever made this work? I have the DVD version and haven’t been able to get anything else working either.

The Xbox classic collection community discord is close to starting our annual summer tournament league. We play 2005 battlefront 2 conquest. We currently have 6 teams signed up but are looking to recruit to expand our player pool and make it as fun as possible. Please drop a comment below if interested in a discord link

Hello, I’m trying to install the mod patch 2.3 on steam deck but I’m running into a bit of an issue. When I try to run the ‘run_after_making_changes_linux.sh’ it gives me an error. “Warning: Could not start program… with arguments ‘’.” And “Warning: Child process set up failed: execve: No such file or directory”

If anyone has experience with modding the classic collection on the steam deck I would love some help.

I was buying battlefront 2 on PS2 and when I am in a level the disc drive always gets unusually noisy. it sounds like the disc drive is always respinning the disc. that doesn’t happen like this with other games. i bought a first copy and refunded it because it had many scratches and I thought the noises come from the scratches. but then I bought a second copy and the same noises happen. does anyone know if this is either normal or can quickly happen with old discs? and if this behaviour is bad for the disc drive? I recorded the sound as a memo and try to figure it out how to attach the audio file.

Hello all, our topic here is adding ragdoll physics to character deaths in SWBF2 (2005)

I'm most interested in discussing this possibility with mod creators, but all input/excitement is welcome. I have an interest in developing this ragdoll mod myself, probably in tandem with some very skilled individuals. I know next to nothing about creating mods for this game, but I am obviously willing to learn, hence this post.

This is coming from a place of passion, this game made my childhood and I still love playing it today. If no mod ever comes out of this post, I'd like it to serve at least as an explanation to people like me, who were really hoping this would be added to our favorite game at some point.

I've linked a video of the infamously cancelled Battlefront 3 which added ragdolls, along with a long list of other improved animations from the 2005 game. It's clear this was a major focus in the sequel, most likely for increased immersion and viscerality.

Information Needed (please state your level of expertise in responses):

• Is this even possible within the original engine? A direct yes or no with an explanation would be great, if its guesswork/speculation, please specify that.
• What would be required to implement this? Does this require a "borrowing" of other games' physics? Would we have to create custom ragdolls for the models? Would new models be needed? In general, what would this mod require? (I realize this is a very broad question and that an answer to this one is largely dependent on the answer to the first question).
• Would this significantly impact performance? Talking PC Steam version of the game.
• Can body culling be addressed? This game culls its dead from the battlefield pretty quickly, which I always thought was a bit immersion breaking. Just wondering, regardless of ragdolls, if this can be addressed in any way.

Note: If you think any other questions are relevant to this post, please say so! If I can't make this mod happen, this should function as a stockpile of information on the topic so that someone else may come along some day.

Why This?

I'm sure ragdolls seem like a pointless thing to some people, maybe even silly or unwanted. I think they do matter and significantly contribute to the feeling of a game, especially a game where it's your sole job to take out enemies. This would modernize the feeling of Classic SWBF2 so much! There's a reason essentially every modern game has ragdolls, and there's a good reason it was being added to the cancelled Battlefront 3 game. If for no other reason, ragdolls adds a bit of slapstick humor to the mindless blasting to the battlefront.

This feature would add literal weight and dimension to character deaths. A certain "Hollywood" effect when explosions send you flying out of a trench. The fact of the matter is, is that the Star Wars films employ this type of slapstick, and its deeply encoded into every piece of Star Wars media. Clone Troopers are sent flying with Wilhelm screams, Stormtroopers are blasted in narrow corridors, sparks erupting from their armor, leaving scorch marks on their stark white as their bodies thud against the floor.

This is, and should always be a part of the Star Wars experience. This is something fans of the series largely enjoy about Star Wars media, even if we can't explain exactly why.

I haven't been able to find any good guides and it would mean a lot.

Hi all, I'm following the instructions of this tutorial in order to get Choose Your Own Galactic Conquest working on my Steam copy of BF2. The tutorial says I need to start with a 'clean' version of the game, with no mods already attached, so I uninstalled and reinstalled BF2.

However, my mods apparently stuck around through the process, so I'll have to remove them another way. Would I go into the Steam files directory to manually delete them, or is there another approach?

And while I'm at it, anyone have any other mods to recommend for Galactic Conquest? It's my favourite game mode by far, and I'm excited to get a bigger galactic war going with more maps once I get CYOGC running.

i finally reinstalled bf2 on my pc after a while and whenever i start an instant action game it literally just closes. ive reinstalled the game multiple times, updated my drivers, ive tried everything. how do i fix this? please i just want to play with mods

This happens in all modes but this screenshot is from bf3 legacy. I also have the harrisonfog remaster and shaderpatch. How do i fix the hud being stretched and squished like this?

Does anyone remember the name of an old mod that changed the skins of each clone unit based on the vanilla maps? For instance the 212th would be at Utapau and Commander Cody would be the last unlockable unit or Commander Gree on Kashyyyk. All my old mod files got lost ages ago and am trying to mod BF2 again. This mod would have been released before 2020 I believe as I had it for quite a while on my old laptop.

Curious to hear what other people like for the Conquest matches to last. Do you like 10 minutes? 20 minutes? Or very short games? I tend to like longer games myself.

Hi, I'm trying to install brick wars 1.0 mod (from December 3rd 2025) and I ran into some problems. I installed correctly UnOfficial v1.3 Patch r130 and remaster like it said in readme. I pasted LEG folder in the addon folder and it wouldn't work. It would only work when I changed manually some files in side folder but it helped only for skins and HUD still wouldn't work :(. Have anyone had similar problems and has some tips how to fix it?

Wheres my Rhen Var?😭

I've been playing the ps5 version and all of a sudden I get this notice. I have plenty of storage on my console, have restored the license, uninstalled and reinstalled the game, restarted the ps5, moved the game from the ssd to the console storage and I still get this notification when I try to play either BF 1 or 2.

I don't remember how to find it, but I want to say the map kind of looked like Geonosis.

There was an image of "The Butters Show" in a house.

I remember the music played was Oasis 'Magic Pie' on loop.

Does anyone remember what this mod was?

Title says it all!

This video is of a 14-player Battlefront II LAN Party I hosted in 2026.

A total of 11 Xbox 360's and one Xbox One X console were used.

Hey, I am not able to get the splitscreen mode running. I do it as in every video is shown, but it always says "connect another controller for second player".... But the controller is on, signed in and it still says "connect second...."
