Description

Welcome to the Battle for Bikini Bottom Beta Mod! This is a recreation mod of the early build of BfBB seen in E3 2003 footage by IGN. This mod is SIMILAR to the footage, but it is not exactly identical. In the production of this mod, I've watched every Beta video and took note of all the materials found within the files and re-added them back into the game! (Any files that weren't present in the final game, I have recreated them.) If you've ever wanted to play a replicated Beta Mod of Battle for Bikini Bottom, then you've come to the right place!

How to Download

Instructions

  1. When installed from Google Drive, right click on the downloaded zip file in your specified download location (it should have a name such as "drivedownload with a lot of numbers") and Press 'Extract All', which will extract the files for the game.
  2. Create a folder on your desktop named 'stock BfBB game files" or whatever your preference is.
  3. Download GameCube Rebuilder and then proceed to open it
  4. When GameCube Rebuilder boots, select Image on the top left of the screen.
  5. Then, select your STOCK Battle for Bikini Bottom ISO in the location you currently have it placed in.
  6. On the right side of the information about the ISO, you'll notice a list of files. Right-click "root" and click Export.
  7. In the window that opens, select the empty folder that you created earlier on your desktop and let the process begin!
  8. Close GC Rebuilder


  1. Now, this is the important part, go to the stock game files folder on your desktop that you just extracted, open the 'root' folder and press (CTRL+A) and (CTRL+C) on your keyboard
  2. Go to the downloaded Beta Mod folder (as we said the name is drive_download with a bunch of numbers.)
  3. Press (Ctrl+V), a process will begin of moving files from your stock files over to the Beta Mod folder. At the end, Windows will let you know there are already files with the same name in the downloaded folder. It is VERY IMPORTANT to select 'SKIP THESE FILES or else you won't see any differences in your game.
  4. Now, re-open GC Rebuilder
  5. Click Root, then select Open.
  6. In the window that opens, select the drivedownload folder.
