This year has been busy for a small team in our community. To celebrate the game's 25th anniversary, a few of us decided to update the game a bit. A huge amount of work went into it, but now it's ready. We present you the 25th Anniversary patch!

Star Wars Rebellion 25th Anniversary Patch Features:

• New Galaxy map using top 200 star wars planets (called systems in game) from 2023 canon mostly positioned as accurately as possible within game engine limits!
• 200 unique system images for in-game and encyclopedia (instead of 26 original sprites)
• 200 new systems encyclopedia entries
• 61 new character sprites (from Rebellion Remastered)
• Option to view skills and abilities of each character on their sprites in-game (see screenshots below)
• high definition 3d models for capital ships (updates are still coming)
• 80 high definition sprites for starfighters
• Game's 1.02 community update
• Dgvoodoo 2.81.1 (2023-07-24) directx libraries

The patch will receive updates in the near future with new stuff coming. Make sure you redownload the editor every now and then.

HOW TO INSTALL

You can get this mod with MetaSharp's StarWarsRebellionEditor. Download the editor here, install, define where your game is installed, then click the Death Star icon (last icon) in the editor to patch your game (see screenshots).

As we approach the 25th Anniversary of the release of PC Game, Star Wars: Rebellion , our community will be hosting a multiplayer (head-2-head) tournament in February. Please visit the tournament website to view more information and register today.

A member of our community, @Metasharp  (exca on Discord) has been working on a new SWRebellion Editor with the goal to be an ultimate RebEd replacement. Metasharp has published the source code on Github. It is an ongoing project with constant updates, so we won't have it listed on the downloads page for now, but we now have links to the GIthub project on our Main Menu under "Game Editor" and on our side menus. (Look for SWRE). You can also get there via our shortlink https://swrebellion.link/swre .

We are changing our name as it displays on the website headers, page titles, and outbound emails to reflect that we are a non-profit community of gamers, and not a for-profit entity. It is a small but significant change.

1. Admin Validation No Longer Required for Account Signup

One of the biggest complaints was not being able to get access to the site until I approved it at the end of each week. Effective immediately, administrator validation is no longer required at signup. Email validation is still required.  We are also requiring linking and/or providing your Discord username when registering.

 If we start to see a large increase in spambots, we will re-enable administrator validation for new accounts. 

2. New social integrations/login methods have been added. If you already have an account, you may associate any of these account integrations (after logging in normally) for future login methods. Instead of using a password at our site, you can use "Sign in with ..."

Account Integration Methods (for login or signup)
-Google, Microsoft, Discord, Twitch, Spotify, Facebook, Twitter

Change Log

• Discord : I have resolved the issues for logging in with Discord and have enabled "Sign up with Discord" as an option. In order to create an account on the website (regardless of what authentication/login method), Discord username is required.
• Twitch : Users can now sign up or login to SWR using their Twitch account.
• Spotify : Spotify users can now sign up or login using Spotify.
• Profile Fields : I have added optional profile fields that you can edit after registration for listing social media and gaming such as Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Steam, Twitch, Spotify, GOG, Origin (EA).
• Account Validation on Signup: Administrator validation no longer required. Email validation is still required to combat spambots.

Since the launch of our new website, visitors to our site have been unable to download files that we host for Rebellion without first creating an account. This was not my intention, but rather it was a default permissions setting. I have now unlocked downloads to all website visitors, and effective immediately they can be downloaded without creating an account on our website. As it was with our previous website policies, only registered users can upload files for public consumption or post in the forums. Happy gaming!

Hello everyone! 

First off, I would like to thank our community members who made this website upgrade possible. Our forum and member database has been successfully migrated, thanks to your generous donations.

We have completed Milestones 1 and 2 of this Website Upgrade Project, and the next milestone, (Milestone #3) is important as well to bring some familiarity to our community, by having a custom theme designed for the our Invision Community Suite that is closely matching to our website design at SWRebellion.com.  To do this, we need to raise about $365  ($150 for the deposit, $150 for completion, and $65 for logo work).

I encourage all who can (when you are able) to donate via PayPal to paypal@swrebellion.com. Please make sure to specify in your PayPal contribution in the notes: SWR Website: Milestone 3 and include your member handle/username on the forums/Discord. If you wish your donation to be anonymous, please add *anonymous* in the message and we will list it in our public ledger as an anonymous donation. Only the Executive Team will be able to see the private data.

If you are curious about how our website upgrade project is organized, I have attempted to export our roadmap from monday.com. Since I am on a free plan, I cannot make the actual roadmap board publicly accessible for viewing, but I am attaching a PDF printout that gives you an idea of what it looks like.
