First you need the SWBF2SM version 1.10. Then in C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront 2 Dedicated Server Manager you make an Addon Folder, and place the maps in there. Then you add them to the map list of the server. Hope that helped.

These are the instructions I saw posted here some time ago.
Rends? wrote:The setup to run mod maps on the DSManager:

Create an "addon" folder in your server root folder.
In that folder put your mod map folder.
DELETE modid\data\lvl_pc\SOUND folder.
Create a mapinfo.txt file in the modid root folder
In that mapinfo.txt file provide the info that follows this format:
(using Coruscant City as example)
  • CW,Rends Coruscant City CW,CO1c_con,CIS,Republic,200,200
    GCW,Rends Coruscant City GCW,CO1g_con,Alliance,Imperial,200,200
    CW,Rends Coruscant City H/V,CO1c_eli,Heroes,Villains,200,200


The first value is what window (left or right; CW or GCW) in the DSmanager window the title will appear.

The 2nd value is the title which will appear in the respective DSManager window. NOT the title of the map in-game.
(this is whatever you want it to say)

The 3rd value is the map filename itself.

The 4th value is the team name which will show up in the DSManager window.

The 5th value is the default reinforcement count the server starts with.
(these values will override the values you have munged in your map)

Or.........

1) Create an an AddOn folder in C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II PC Server
2) Go to http://blackbagops.com/swbf2/index.shtml and download the Battlefront II Server Manager (Win32)
3) Unzip it and, in the unzipped folder, copy swbf2sm.exe and put it in your C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II PC Server directory
4) Run swbf2sm.exe, and in the "maps" tab, at the bottom of the list should be the mod maps in your Server's AddOn folder.
