Star Wars GB is great! IMO it's the best Star Wars game out there (yes, IMHO it's even better than Battlefront).

i used to play this game, and since i've never been an RTS fan, i got bored
darth scourge
01-26-2005, 08:34 PM
It did bore me after a while aswell but I used create my own campaigns.It took forever to master the scripts and trigger effects et al.I did a good one where Darth Maul was doing an assasination for Sidious and I managed to work out how to make some enemies die/choke when maul approached them without attacking.

i tried that stuff, but it was too complicated for me, so i put it aside

I run a pad of A4 out and an Ink cartridge printing out instructions how to do it.When Republic Commando comes out do you want to start a clan Kaputski.You have got XBOX havent ya.

I think I'm gonna' start playin' some of my cpu games online. But GB? Iono. I'm to anal to be good at it. Meaning the way I play, I end up trying to upgrade everything. Takes me to long to actualy get an army. Now Red Alert 2, I'm good at.

My whole stategy in GB revolves around landing like 10 Pummels in the middle of the opposing base and letting them have a rip, focusing on power cores and shield generators at first. Besides that it is mostly a solid defensive front I put up, with small fortress outposts half way between my base the opposing base.
darth scourge
01-31-2005, 09:22 PM
Same here I used those pummels alot.Once they take out the barracks and war factories the enemies had it.Once I used a Mod called Simon the killer Ewok and took out a whole army.Its a shame It doesnt work on my PC,id make some more campaigns and upload them to some of ya.

Its where the Gungans are replaced with Vong characters and voices.All you need is the SWGB Design kit which has mod installer and all the tools even to create your own mods.Exar Kun mod is also available aswell as EU characters.
Soontir Solo
02-01-2005, 12:56 AM
And you can get the design kit on the above link?
darth scourge
02-01-2005, 11:25 AM
I just looked for the design kit but cant seem to find it anymore.But you can download the tools separately.Havent tried the link yet.Let me know if it works.Otherwise Il dig out the old disc that I saved with the design kit on for ya.

Just downloaded the 'Fett chronicles' custom campaign.Looks awesome in my opinion.Ive looked at the Vong mods.They are BETA version and look ok but could have looked better.The Dovin Basil and Coral Skipper mods are available aswell.Darth Sidious with red lightsaber is mad too.

I've got it downloaded but when I try to open it I unzip everything but then I don't know what to do. I don't know how to access anything. I don't know what program opens in the modpacks.

Hrm... I recently purchased the game and was very pleased. I'm addicted now, and I was just thinking that I wanted more armies... Like the Yuzzhan Vong and Ewoks.
These modpacks and things seem really neat, but it's all greek to me. I'm going to try to figure it out tommorow.

darth scourge

Mods are easy even the greeks could do it lol.Heres how you do it matey.Download the mod installer.download the mod,which is an mpi file.open the mod installer and press open file.a list of mpi files come up.click on which one you want to put in the game.a read me file comes up on the mod installer,press close readme.press install mod.done.make sure the game isnt running when you install or remove mods because it will be a pain in ze butt to remove.
If you just want to create them go on swgb heaven and read the tutorials because i aint got all night to explain that.

Sadly dude, you are behind. that came out a little after the first one did. You can buy both games at Wal-Mart for like $9.99
Master Magnus
04-05-2005, 06:13 PM
I also don't have the Clone Campaigns expansion. I had too little room left on my hard drive when the expansion pack was released, so I never bought it. Since then, I've a new hard drive, but it's impossible to find either the expansion pack or the bundled version. Well, EaW soon arrives anyway.

darth scourge
04-10-2005, 10:36 PM
Oh man the amount of errors and stuff Ive had with this game.I think that you may have to reinstall.Before you reinstall make sure you delete all Lucasarts folders as when you reinstall they tend to style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/censored.gif up the registry causing more errors.
Also your disc drive may not read the disc properly thats why when you press start game it says insert disc,so it may be a driver problem.
Refer to the troubleshooter,that should help with any problems.

Im working on a campaign. Its called, "The Rise of Darth Vader". It is basically about what happens in between Episode III and Episode Four(i forgot my roman numerals!)
Cassus Fett
06-19-2005, 03:43 PM
How do you make the triggers, etc? when doing your on scenario
darth scourge
06-19-2005, 07:04 PM
first you usually need a condition ie Timer and then an effect ie display instructions
example
click new trigger......then click on new condition and choose Timer, type 10 in the timer box. Then click new effect and choose display instructions and type in anything for example ' I am an idiot'. Click test and when you start the scenario after 10 seconds on the screen your text will appear.
In the boxes you can choose whether the triggers start straight away or not. It is kinda hard to explain but on SWGB Heaven they have trigger guides that help.

I had this game on my old PC. God I loved it, created some good detailed scenarios too (that my old PC couldn't handle). Unfortunately I can't find the disks anymore so I can't re-install it.
(Shame I didn't save that old map. I created a superb Theed Map with an impeccable ammount of detail. It was pretty to look at too)
silverbolt
01-09-2007, 12:53 PM
ok i realise its an old game but its still one i play from time to time.
Im trying to make a custom campaign using the scenario editor and the one thing im stuck on is how to make triggers and effects. For instance if in the objectives it says darth vader must live how do i set the trigger so that if he dies the controlling player automatically loses. Just general stuff like that the rest i have figured out how to do its just triggers and effects that has me truly stumped.
Anyone who plays the game (or the engine that created it age of empires) know how to do this?
thanks
