Weapon Mod subforum
« on: April 29, 2007, 05:13:39 pm »
everyone loves crazy weapon mods. we need a place to share them, get help, ask for ideas from pros ETC.

positives: people would mod soldat and be happy with their own server, making them play alone and clean up the dedicated servers. kidding. but people would like to play with bots alot. plus you could stash it into the Modded stuff category


negitives: another area for spam  :o ... thats all i can think of


discuss  [retard]

[size=0]In topic title, "sub-topic" changed to "subforum" for accuracy[/size]

yeah, thanks keron :P

I liked/supported/asked for this. It is great, It would be great to discuss the balance of each individual wm, perhaps the ones that go on servers.

Right now there aren't enough people who post about weapon mods and such to warrant this.  In addition the theme we use doesn't work properly with sub-forums (though I hope to get it fixed in the future) and we already have a huge number of forums.

If the day comes that weapon-mod topics are cluttering up other sections and the theme is fixed, I'd consider it.

no one posts weapon mods because there is nowhere to post weapon mods. they arnt partial mods (those are all graphics) they arnt full mods (obviously) they arnt modded interfaces (hmm...) and they cant be put in weapon mod discusstion(sp) because thats for the next version of soldat.

only time i see them is when people ask "Wtf how do i do this" and people post the mod  in there. so yeah...

I like this idea. I gad a weapon mod some time ago and I didn't post it because there was nowhere to post it.

Simply weapon mods would fall into Partial Mod category. Great example here

Weapon balance discussion can be used to discuss weapon balance.

Help the beta testers decide the weapon balance that will be used for the next version of Soldat! Make sure to read the stickies first!
thats what the weapon balance dicussion thread says, FLAB

and †, the partial mods one says
Quote
This section is for graphical modifications that change only a part of the game, ranging from silly headgears to nuclear arsenal. Sound mods and mods in progress also go here.
nothing about actual weapons.ini mods

I think that if Interfaces and Partitial Modifications have their own sub-forums moded .ini's should have one too. Maybe it should be sub-forum for all .ini's mods, no only weapons.ini?

... they arnt partial mods (those are all graphics)...
No, they aren't; you go to Partial Mods! You'll find a couple of weapon-mods. You don't see many because there aren't many at all in the first place—not because there's no section fit for them.

I'm pretty much with FLAB here. I guess an addition to the Partial Mods section's description would be all right, but a whole new section should only be made out of necessity. There are almost no weapon-mods, so the section would be pretty much empty and useless (like the R forum is right now)...
