When you d/l the maps they folder should be a 3 leter folder e.g ABC no more no less this folder put into your addon folder and it should be ok.

addon all lower case, the addon folder should be put in c:\program files\lucasarts\starwarsbattlefront2\GameData

LOL :) Welcome Emraz! :)

Ok first of all, have you definately got the 1.1 patch for SWBF2? you shouldn't need to create an addon folder, it appears with the patch (I think). once you've extracted the download all you need to do is to put the 3 digit titled folder i.e. ABC or BUT or whatever into the addon folder and then run battlefront. Hope that helps! :)

you need to make sure there are no subfolders. sometimes when the map gets zipped up it places it in another folder of the same name, so it would be for example gamedata/addon/bes/bes. you need to make sure there's only one of the 3 letter folders, like gamedata/addon/bes which should have data and addme.script
