And the Empire also has the "wimpy" carbines from the start and no body seems to be complaining (I'm not complaining by the way).

Just get the Frenzy Award 64 times and you can have fun with the "macho" rifle for as long as you want.

Could you direct me to this patch? As long as it doesn't cause any strife with online play or standard gameplay.Caleb1117 wrote:Haven't you stated this 2 or 3 times before?

I, personally, HATE that wimpy little Carbine I think it would also look cooler to have the long rifle.
If you look at the (I think) Conversion pack 1.9.1 it looks a whole lot better with the long rifle rather than the short.
But, that's just one mans opinion.
The E-11 Carbine is a standard issue weapon and fits the StormTroopers, unlike with the DC-15a Blaster Rifle which is a much savior and scientifically (if any logic and science can be forced into Star Wars) logical armament than the DC-15 Carbine.AQT wrote:And the Empire also has the "wimpy" carbines from the start and no body seems to be complaining (I'm not complaining by the way).
Personally I hate to use award weapons for the simple reason that I don't like cheats or super powered weapons Superior to other people. . .I am just a normal trooper on the battlefront :clone: :stormie:H_BOMB wrote:Just get the Frenzy Award 64 times and you can have fun with the "macho" rifle for as long as you want.

He wants the blaster carbine that is (by virtue of the 1.2/1.3 patch for the stock REP side and by my/our choice for the additional legions) the default blaster rifle to be the blaster rifle which is the award rifle model.Teancum wrote:*sigh*
So then what exactly do you want?
Here's why changes aren't going to be made to that -
1) The stock side visual changes aren't part of the Conversion Pack, they're part of the 1.3 patch.
2) It looks good having a weapon model change for an award weapon.
3) We like it and it's best having our custom legions match up with the 1.3 patch changes.
If you want that particular visual change to be removed, you can restore the stock sides with the 1.3 patch. That will of course remove all the visual upgrades, but if a little rifle model matters that much, by all means it is there as an option. The Conversion Pack's legions all use the upgraded visuals by default and that cannot be changed by the user.
If the award rifle really makes a huge difference in the advantage it gives you over the AI, I would be surprised.

Re: Wishlist of tweaks/updates
Well I apparently owe everyone an apology, I was under the impression that, in the Conversion Pack, the modders who made it replaced the Carbine and I didn't really think on what I was asking. This will not happen again and I beg your forgiveness for this, rather annoying, contradiction.Maveritchell wrote:He wants the blaster carbine that is (by virtue of the 1.2/1.3 patch for the stock REP side and by my/our choice for the additional legions) the default blaster rifle to be the blaster rifle which is the award rifle model.Teancum wrote:*sigh*

IF there is a way to replace the Carbine, without inhibiting any major Gameplay functions though I would be extremely grateful for someone to direct me this particular item.

Re: Wishlist of tweaks/updates
You don't owe anyone an apology; like many people who do not take a lot of time to search around you are just uninformed. In the future you can certainly make it more convenient to do some hard looking (as this has been addressed before), but I don't think anyone here is mad.delta578 wrote:Well I apparently owe everyone an apology, I was under the impression that, in the Conversion Pack, the modders who made it replaced the Carbine and I didn't really think on what I was asking.

Like I said in my last post - all the Conversion Pack "extra legions" we did create and we did/do have control over how the weapons look in that - but we won't change them for the reasons listed above. The stock sides are part of the 1.2/1.3 patch and this is something you have control over if you want it.

Re: Wishlist of tweaks/updates
I actually have a question about:
Kamino Tipioca (or whatever it's called) City, Clone Wars, Er why is the 212th attack legion on that map? Wasn't it the ARC's who defended Kamino when the CIS attacked?

Probably because we made a 212th side and not an ARC side.delta578 wrote:I actually have a question about:

Re: Wishlist of tweaks/updates
Because we wanted to even things out. Different legions on different maps. The 212th were only on two maps at the time, so there you go. Is that okay with you, or shall we make you a special build?
*larger sigh* Why does everything have to be canon with these people?

One thing I would ask for (if everyone could have what they wanted...HA!) is that the conversion pack stay just that. A conversion between BFII and BFI. All the other maps are cool, but they take up space. If you could release like all the BFI maps and the Classic mode SEPARAETLY, then release another huge mappack with all the new modes and characters, that would be amazing.
And it would provide more options to switch out maps/free up memory in one's addon folder.

Re: Wishlist of tweaks/updates
Could you replace the Imperial Recon trooper with a Shadow trooper? execpt give him an E-11 instead of a Sniper rifle. ![thumbs_up :thumbs:](./images/smilies/thumbsup2.gif)
