New maps and mods are coming out quickly. If you release something (even a beta) please post it here. Be sure to give details in the topic such as Map/Mod name and version
This is the very last version of my map that I initially made over a year ago for the first Battlefront. Versions since then have gone through many changes but I was never really satisfied with the way they turned out. This final version with the new additions noted in the readme including random skydomes, and added support for Maveritchell's "Dark Times II - Rising Son" mod, has made it complete as I hoped it would be.
Readme:
Hidden/Spoiler:
[code]Bespin: Escape 3.5 Final
Jendo7 3rd of September 2010
Support for Maveritchell's "Dark Times II: Rising Son" mod
Modes: Conquest
Both the "Dark Times II: Rising Son" mod, and the Unofficial 1.3 patch need to be installed for the Dark Times era/content to be available

This map is dedicated to everyone who worked for Pandemic Studios, without whom this great game would not exist
Sound issue:
Because Boba Fett's EE-3 Blaster sound did not work due to game music conflicts, I have changed it to Jango's Westar-33 pistol. His blaster is still available in Hero Assault

Edit: Unfortunately I left out Kit Fisto to the one submitted to SWBFFiles, and had to upload it again. The moddb link has already been updated with the correct version.
Edit 2: The link on SWBFFiles has now been updated with the full working version of the map thanks to Mav.

Thanks. I'm really happy with the way the random skies turned out... makes it a lot more fun between rounds.

But one question, where the heck is Slave 1? I found the Y-Wing, but I can't find Slave 1
Thanks, the Dark Times has really added a lot to it. The Slave 1 is in the same place as the Y-Wing but only spawns if you capture the upper courtyard CP, as the Empire.
Well, this is definetely the best one yet! Random skies are awesome! I like how you've sort of justified the daytime lighting in one of the night skies by throwing in that bright star in the background, that's some creative thinking.

Thanks Nihillo! I'm really pleased with the random night skies. Actually the bright star was a bit of an accident, as it was part of the Polis Massa sky, and only appeared when I took out the skyroid objects in the background. Bit of a surprise

On to the next project... ?
Just a suggestion:
You've done maps for both A New Hope (Dune Sea) and The Empire Strikes Back (This), so why don't you do a Return of the Jedi based one? Just an idea...
I found the Y-Wing, but I can't find Slave 1
