I am going to dig out the cd and try out that advanced mod, many thanks for the link

Agree it's high time for lucasarts to do another in the series. I can only dream how close it would be to looking like the films with the current hardware

No problems chaps, I hope you enjoy the mods as much as I did and still do from time to time.

There are some great single missions that players have created too. Some are so indepth they've created whole new ships but I just stick to the basic ones. I think Darksabers page has a lot of the missions from memory if it's still up and running. THere was also a good one made which was the evacuation of echo base - basically the first mission of the game but from the point of view of a Xwing fighter and what we briefly see in the movies or have read in the books. Really well done.

Links should be on the XWA page and I think Ace Antillies made the echo base mission if you want to search for it. It only requires some very basic editing to get them to work. If I can do it anyone can as I'm far from PC savvy.

Totally agree though a new Xwing or Tie series on the 360/PS3/PC would be gold. Just give us those old games with updated sound and graphics and ill be stoked. LA dropped the ball a decade ago though - XWA was their last decent game in my opinion which was around 2002 I think. Since then they've produced nothing but rubbish.
