I've been furiously at work modding, so I missed Tuesday's shindig. I checked a little after 10 but didn't see anyone around. Conspiracies!
Shelled pants has been working away on a scenario for tuesday night. Looks like the only mod that will be required will be : RHS. Will update as we get closer to the day.
I love some RHS Escalation, and would love to join! I play Ceitho's DUWS Modified: RHS Escalation all the time so that I can just pop in and get something going quickly. I've also been furiously working on my own private update to the apparently-abandoned (or at least on haitus -- no updates for like 5 months now) Canadian Armed Forces mod, and integrating that into DUWS for a combined US\CAN vs Russia DUWS for a friend I to play.
We are going to need more warning for mods then a couple days. A lot of folks are bandwidth limited. We have tried really hard not to use mods to make things easier on everyone because of that. A lot of the people who have been coming probably will not participate if there are mods that need to be installed. Trust me, I have been there and done it.
A Friday 'heads up' would be best for the largest of mods (1gb+) unless someone is managing to play on a connection slower than mine (1.5mbps). The real killer comes for those who have to go to Starbux to avoid hitting their bandwidth cap. I've got RHS torrent-ing tonight. Should be done by morning.
Shelled isnt available to run tuesday. Has been called into work. Ghiz if you want to strip out the mod go ahead. Pants was having issues getting the vanilla server to cooperate.
I will not be able to make it tomorrow night, way too much yard/house work to do before the weather turns crappy at the end of the week.
Iv been tagged for duties tomorrow and have way to much to get done this week so I wont be on tonight. or on very short time anyhow.

I would love to do co op missions, where theres not like every random joe walking around shooting you for no reason, but you can set mission locations where one shooter would have a problem, but to call air support in on fire missions, not just call them in though, but give them in and out ways.
