I use a pirated version of the game, you dont have to deal with any steam/origin issues this way. Launches without issues everytime. I mainly play splitscreen with mods, ive spent hours and hours figuring out what works and what doesnt. Once you get what you like and everything working, its an amazing game. I like to use reduced hp, infinite force, reduced cooldowns, replacements for basically every hero/villain, IA tweaks to always be whatever faction you like on every map, ive been playing First order vs resistance. Look up resistance marines, crazy awesome mod that replaces all resistance units with totally new outfits that look awesome, i use a mod that makes the first order armor all black. Tons of fun. Infinite force is like a must, makes saber users feel like they should.
Hey, I can't upload most of the mods I want because it says " archive has no insallable mods". How do I fix this? I was only able to upload 1 of 10 mods.
you need to unzip all the mods, but there are some exceptions, such mods create 2 files when unzipping, and they only work when you add them in zip format, there are few of them, the main part of the mods must always be unzipped first
Excellent video - thank you for making it quick and easy. However, I'm running into issue where it sends me to the EA app when I press "Launch" from Frosty and it says I "Game Not Installed, but I have it on Steam and can see it in my Library on EA and Steam. Any help??
I try to launch it from frosty, which then opens up up steam for a second, kills it, them makes it launch it from the EA app. which in turn kills the mods.... any help?
Hey for me my game opens but crashes as soon as I get into a game or it just doesn’t open. Also it will sometimes say I don’t have enough disk space but is only using like 50%. I’ve been spending hours trying to figure out what the issue is. One thing I did notice is that the Bioware localization plugin has a ! next to it in the installed plugins tab in frosty so idk if that’s the issue. But if anyone could help me out that would be awesome.
Or arcade. One of the two. You have to be on light side and select Anakin. He will have the abilities and animations swapped with vader so don’t use it online. Then you fight reskinned and animated battle droids that are mini Obi Wans. Should work.
Does installing the mods depend on the launcher,im thinking about buying the game on the ea app instead of steam,will i still be able to download mods or do i have to buy it from steam?
Every time I try to launch it with the mods, it goes to steam, and redirects me to the EA app, and it wont launch the game unless i do it through that, but then the mods don't work if I open it that way.
@@George-um2vc Check to see if your mod preset's name has a space, mine used to be "Clone Wars Mods" but it having a space between each word caused my game to crash, I removed them, and it worked fine after that
