Changelogs
This mod will not work without Mophead's Localisation Editor files!

Additionally, you need the latest version of Frosty Tool Suite (linked here) to run this mod.


Clone models have been edited to better match their film proportions, and textures have been updated with better detail and weathering. Additionally, all clone appearances have been converted to their original look from the 2004-2005 Battlefront games. This includes both Phase I and II, as well as additional relevant appearances from Legends games and comics.

By default, all classes have their Battlefront II (2005) Phase II appearances applied. Skins you have not yet unlocked can still be purchased, though your options are limited to what was in the original games.

No modder or modding tool is perfect. While the team has done their best, several issues have persisted throughout this mod's development. If/when a solution is found for any of these, the mod will be updated accordingly.

Known Issues

  • The ARC Trooper’s left arm clips through his pauldron.
  • The Phase I helmets are missing their emissive bits.
  • Non-player Phase I clone pilots are missing their helmet tubes and may have persistent brown markings on their armor.
  • The Imperial Rocket Trooper’s “Legacy” skin is missing its tubes.
  • Some Resistance Specialist AI may have ARC skirts.
  • Upon launching, the game may tell you you're not connected to EA servers. Spamming the CONNECT button should connect you.

Incompatibilities
  • This mod will not work without Mophead's Localisation Editor files. Download the String Merger plugin here and place its .dll inside your Frosty Mod Manager Plugins folder BEFORE launching.
  • This mod is not compatible with previous versions of Frosty (you can download the latest version 1.0.6 here).
  • This mod is not compatible with other extensive clone mods/overhauls, as they typically modify the same files.
  • This mod is not compatible with mods that edit the Alderaan Guard or original Imperial Jumptrooper.
  • We do not recommend using this mod with Ortho's 4K Clone Legions. In fact, we don't recommend using that mod at all.


Classic Battlefront Clones is the collaborative effort of several modders donating their time, talents, and technical knowledge. This project is our love letter to the games that defined our childhood, and we hope it makes this game feel a little bit more like the Battlefront we all remember.
