UPDATE: the REBCP will be back in few weeks. It need to be updated to the new DSUCP version


Finally! Thanks to Darksaber, to the development of the game conducted by JeremyFr, and to many talented authors, who have been working on this game for years, my "Rebels Craft Pack" is ready and available now.

What is REBCP ? It's an extension of the DSUCP, the wonderful patch created by Darksaber. You will need to install the DSUCP first!
The REBCP is not just a variant of an existing patch: it is also a common platform, to create new missions and battles to share on my site: I started, publishing the first three battles.



Soon other missions will follow, battles created by me, and by anyone who wants to share their adventures. Simply contact me, and I will help you publish the missions you have created.

For now, enjoy REBCP 1.0. Every feedback will be welcome.
If you are curious to know about the first battle, enjoy the introductory video on youtube, here.

One thing I don't understand: I see there is a list of added crafts with REBUCP.
Does it mean any of the ships from DSUCP risk being replaced?

Here the list of replaced and new crafts: DSUCP > REBCP

SLOT 33: TIE Phantom > T-47 Airspeeder
SLOT 34: E-Wing > YT-1760
SLOT 35: T-70 X-Wing > T-60 X-Wing
SLOT 40: TIE Lancer > TIE Inquisitor (Advanced V1)
SLOT 41: X-Wing Partisan > Ghost
SLOT 44: Combat Utility Vehicle > Naboo N1L Starfighter
SLOT 46: Mole Miner > Z-95 MkIV X-Wing
SLOT 49: TIE Scimitar > TIE Royal Guard
SLOT 67: Raven's Claw > Hell Diver (Sith Fighter)
SLOT 88: TIE Fighter Special Forces > Gozanti Cruiser (full)
SLOT 89: TIE Fighter First Order > Gozanti Cruiser (empty)
SLOT 90: TIE Reaper > V-Wing
SLOT 104: Droid Tri Fighter > Hyperdrive Ring
SLOT 109: Droid Bomber > U-Wing
SLOT 112: AT-AT Barge > LAAT
SLOT 122: MC90 Defiance > Princess Class Star Cruiser
SLOT 123: MC104 Odysseus > Hammerhead Cruiser
SLOT 141: Mod Strike Cruiser > Dominator Interdictor
SLOT 184: Predator Class Cruiser > Pursuit Cruiser
SLOT 188: Dominance Battlecruiser > Astro Sub Cruiser
SLOT 193: New Ion Battery > AT-AT

the replacements are based on the following considerations:
- REBCP is dedicated at the time from the creation of the Galactic Empire up to Endor. Therefore ships after Endor are excluded.
- REBCP is designed for planetary missions, therefore atmospheric vehicles are inserted
- one of the main topics of the REBCP is the Inquisition

Have fun!

Thanks a lot.

The only thing that sounds a bit strange: AT-AT included, AT-AT barge excluded.

I feel like I missed the download link. Additionally, do any of the craft have separate installers? The only one I'm not crazy about loosing is the TIE Phantom as I fly it a lot in my own personal missions.

It's the top-left button on DTM's site; and he does indeed offer all of his craft separately. :ja:

I honestly like all the changes except the TIE Phantom, would it be simpler to install DSUCP then REBCP, then go back and install a single craft installer for the phantom? Does Darksaber have a standalone TIE Phantom installer that installs back into the same slot the phantom uses in DSUCP?

Also, great work BTW DTM. I probably should state that first before I start picking it apart.

The Phantom is available for download on the Imperial Fighters 1 page on Darksaber's website. I believe the default install slot is 33.

XWA has a limited number of slot. It's impossible to satisfy everyone. It's understandable you want to create your custom configuration!

My intention with the REBCP was not to replace the DSUCP, other XWA configurations or custom XWA versions: May I suggest you keep multiple versions of tha XwingAlliance folder, so that you are able to play with every XWA patches, including the new REBCP mission?

The trick of the multiple XWA versions is very useful and easy to handle: actually I use 5 different versions of XWA with different slot configuration, but they could be more...

Decent idea. Is there a process or is it as simple as copy pasta for GOG

I agree, the phantom is cool.
But i love the snowspeeder much more !!
I hope someday the snowspeeder replaces pinook fighter.
Anyway i'll try do do it by myself, i didn't test it yet, my pc is starting to die and have no much time for games now.

I agree with you, but the point is that the Pinook fighter is a craft included in the original version of X-Wing Alliance.

I was just reading... "one of the main topics of the REBCP is the Inquisition" which specifically got my attention. I just figured you'd appreciate this DTM.

This is my custom Imperial Inquisitor costume I created. https://i.imgur.com/fZhWBbI.jpg

That character, Inquisitor Asmodeus, is roughly based on Maarek Stele in that he starts as a TIE pilot and eventually is inducted into the Inquisitorius.

Anyway, at first I was just interested in the addition of the ships, but now I'm pretty motivated to give the missions a shot.

Oh man. Looks like REBCP overwrites the imperial hangar and concourse. No good for when I go back to playing Empire as usual.
