Release v1.0.2 of the Unofficial Update Mod for Star Wars Battlefront II on PS2. Adds a recreation of the content from the Xbox DLC along with CW Hoth, CW Endor, GCW Geonosis, a few additional hunt modes, and Hero Assault (Heroes vs Villains) on every map, along with a slightly expanded Galactic Conquest. Also patched for SWBFSpy multiplayer.
These files overwrite some base game files to add the Alt-Addon system, from which the mod runs. The user can then install future Alt-Addon packages using this system.

This is amazing, thank you
Crazy that i´m able to play this modded version on my phone, really been waiting for this
Does this mean that, in the future, we could see more mods for the ps2 version?
Correct.
A patch has been issued (1.0.2) that should fix any issues regarding Galactic Conquest - 04/29/24
Thank you so much for making this. I've been playing the game on my phone lately and this has totally refreshed my experience! I never played non-Conquest games before but am really enjoying CTF in Galactic Conquest mode. The Clone Wars Hoth and Endor are really cool too. Looking forward to trying out GCW Geonosis.
That said, I've run into two bugs that I haven't tried to/been able to reproduce:
* I played Bespin: Cloud City Conquest with the Leader bonus as the CIS and the game spawned very few units per team, to the point where I was able to capture all the command posts while only seeing about four enemies.
* I played 2-flag CTF on Yavin 4: Arena on the Republic side with no bonuses and played a match without weapon sounds. All other sounds worked fine.
I will try to reproduce these bugs the next time I go through Galactic Conquest as the respective factions.
ETA: I also found a reproducible bug in Galactic Conquest as the Empire. The Garrison and Supply bonus icons are completely blank, the Autoturret and Sabotage bonuses appear as squares with no icons and the Leader bonus appears as a tiny icon with no border.
