Jeansy, PM me if you've got any editing questions. I'm more than happy to discuss them. Having heaps of fun editing and without getting heavily into scripting files yet, just using some scripting commands.

sure will in time

This Weather Mod looks pretty good so far. I'd love to see the sand storms over a desert in game.

This FDF sound mod sounds pretty good. It claims all the sounds are replaced, but many sound the same to me. The gunshots seem to be the most obvious changes. It's got some good reviews for it.

I've also created a new in-game Team Status Dialog. I've updated to version 1.0 now (23 Mar 07). I'm trying to work out whether it could be converted into a mod for a server, so that all missions could have access to it, without having to include it in each mission.

Screenshots:
Team view - including collapsable groups, group joining, TL selection
Group view
Vehicle view - including spare seats

With Chat & VOIP, what does the Direct Communications channel do? I saw that it also puts a text message across the base of the screen too. Is that it's sole purpose? Does it affect VOIP? Who receives the message?

squad.xml. This looks interesting. Anyone got a working version for TOG? I might give it a go soon. Read about it here.

A rather interesting site of information.

Went to join you in a game last nite Dr Eyeball got to the receiving data part and it took so long i fell asleep and the missus had to wake me up LOL, when i awoke it still hadn't finished.

I'm guessing you must have tried joining an Evolution mission server? You still need to be a little mindfull of which servers you join.

Tips:
I find if I don't get the full player list appearing (in top right hand corner) within a few minutes, then loading the data part may not complete. If the data loading doens't load within 10 minutes, then in my experience so far, it never will. But it's generally about 3 minutes (even with my poor 53k connection).

Also, for that mission, you probably need to stick to servers with less than 15 players or so.

I finally made colonel in that mission last night.
