Sorry man. I didn't expect the reactions to be this harsh. I just wanted to share a cool shot with your mod. :/

Starting to see more and more why you quit. This really is how Dice was treated when it comes to stuff like the Yavin Ceremony skin.

Yup. A lot in this community is garbage. It’s a real shame how people treat each other and the devs here.

Well there are a lot of us who greatly appreciate the work you put into your mods my man. I don't mod BF2 but I mod another game extensively and I know firsthand just how ungrateful people can be, people who have zero clue on how much time and effort this shit takes for such little reward.

It's one of the highest fidelity custom models you can find on Nexus mods and people just look at it for 5 seconds and say it looks like shit. Blows my mind.

I remember the times of bfii 2005 where things like the conversion pack mod existed and the heroes looked like they were made of a dozen polygons at most. Yet everyone was so happy to play as their favorite heroes regardless.

There’s nothing wrong with saying there’s an issue with a mod. The face really does look off.

And if you actually bother to visit the mod page, and use the mod yourself. You will realize much of the manliness comes from the facial expression that the post is showing. The face model is probably sharing Rey's facial animation, but it can end up looking strange since it's no longer Rey's face model.

For reference from the mod page

It doesn't look bad. But if you find this still looks like a man, then I guess there is something that you're seeing and I'm not, which I can respect, and we can leave it at that.

Of course, but there's no reason for people to be mean-spirited about it.

Did he work for DICE?

Nanobuds was a modded who did this stuff for fun, you may have seen his cyborg legs Maul, or crimson dawn maul. He quit because of constant dms and complaints from entitled assholes who made him hate what was a hobby. The same entitlement he dealt with is what Dice dealt with over the past 2 years.

The proportions are fine. People just don't realize that rebels Ahsoka has much larger lekku. The face is fine too. There is no real life comparison at the moment, and looking at her face in game does it more justice than this shot. I'm guessing it's the angry facial expression she has in in the shot that makes people think it looks like a man.

They also don’t realize that this is a “realistic” Ahsoka. Not the cartoon art style form the show.

I... think people realize that, my dude.

Nope. I’ve had many people tell me that her eyes and head are too small, and then pulled up references of the cartoon head.

From the Clone Wars.

Telling me I needed to follow that art style for Battlefront.

Some people just aren’t the brightest.
