SWBF1 1.3 Patch Mirrored

While the Star Wars Battlefront v1.3 (beta) patch is old news, it just hasn’t gotten the exposure needed I think. It was an improvement over 1.2 (though requiring 1.2 to be installed first) and yet fewer people use it.

Major things changed like removing the framerate cap, increased stability and balance issues I think are things people would like in this patch. In any case, it’s now mirrored up on LucasFiles.com. Sorry it took so long!
