The file you just downloaded? Presumably the one you're trying to install with? It's called ConvoPackInstaller.exe.
Thanks. But now i have another question, sorry if im posting it in the wrong place, but how do you get the millenium falcon in space endor??????
I just said that we had another thread to ask those types of things. Please refrain from asking non-installation-related questions in this thread.

The thread you'll want to post questions like you're asking in is this thread:

What's in the Conversion Pack - And where can I find it?

Nope, the Convo pack installer doesn't seem to be working for me. I double-click it in Windows explorer, it asks if I'm sure I want to run the file, I click "run" and that's it. ConvoPackInstaller.exe and ConvoPackInstaller.tmp show up in the list of processes when I open up the task manager, but neither seems to be doing anything interesting (even if I wait for ten minutes.)

I'm running a Vista Home Edition laptop.

I'm going to try rebooting my computer to see if that helps.

EDIT: Rebooted my computer and tried again. While it took nearly ten minutes before the installer started, it seemed to work and everything is going fine now. :) Thanks for the awesome mod, guys.

Don't add in BFX. Its old versions aren't compatible. You might be able to just reinstall the Pack (I would try this first), but remember that if it doesn't work, to go ahead and start from the beginning.

Discussion can take place in this thread:

If there needs to be a separate thread just for discussion, one can be set up later.

I'm having some trouble. The 1.3 patch doesn't seem to be installed in my game. Whenever I run the .bat file, it tells me it cant find battlefront.exe even though I just had a clean install.

You can get rid of that "blue thing" by running menu.bat in the v1.3patch folder. The 1.3 Patch's documentation will tell you how if you're unsure.

And no, you can't replace our sides with the Extreme sides. You can wait for ARC_Commander to release his next version, though, which will be compatible with the Pack.

And I did make a Star Forge map, it's called "Space Rakata Prime."

I can't say for sure, but my best guess would be that you have some kind of memory issue. This may potentially be solved in one of two ways - reduce what you're requiring your system to do (lower graphical settings, turn off background programs), or just restart the map (this will fix some issues).

Have you made sure that you're patched to v1.1? If you can't seem to find a solution in the 1.3 documents, be sure to check out the "Conversion Pack help" document in the "Conversion Pack documents" folder. I included backups of common.lvl, ingame.lvl, and shell.lvl just in case there was an issue like yours that is unsolveable, so if you need a quick fix (I would not recommend avoiding the problem, however), those can be manually installed as the document demonstrates.
