SW_MOD2_MSP_2_4.zip —
This patch is designed to fix problems caused by Master Server Patch (MSP) 2.4 when it is run alongside with Star Wars Mod 2.0.
If the player has MSP 2.4 installed on AvP2 and attempts to run Star Wars Mod 2.0 without this patch, they will experience the following issues:
⦁ Crashes when navigating the multiplayer menus at the game mode selection.
⦁ Possible crash mid-game due to new MSP text.
⦁ Smartgun crosshair will appear pure white.
Thus, I recommend all players who choose to play Star Wars Mod 2.0 with MSP 2.4 to use this patch.

Version: 1.0 New textures: 1 New sounds: No New music: No New maps: No New models: No This patch is designed for Aliens vs Predator 2 with Master Server Patch (MSP) 2.4 and Star Wars Mod 2.0 both installed and running together. Known bugs: MSP 2.4 will always override the version number on the main menu screen of the game. In Star Wars Mod 2.0, it will say "v2.0 - Special Edition". Anytime MSP 2.4 is used, it will override the version number, including this patch to say v2.4. This is more of a MSP issue than a bug. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3) Construction Info: Tools used: Paint Shop Pro and ResHacker.

You never know, I might make them. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9) Future Releases: As the Master Server Patch receives future updates I might update this patch if needed. Hopefully, that won't be needed as Ayleia has mentioned to me that the smartgun crosshair should be fixed in the next MSP release. Additionally, the MSP's string/text changes in the cres.dll might be moved out of the file. This will fix other mods from conflicting with MSP as well. Once this happens, this patch will no longer be needed and the player can run Star Wars Mod 2.0 as is with MSP. Remember! The Force will be with you, always. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- One last note: HAIL TO THE KING BABY!
