    Correct me if I am wrong, but doesn't the cartel map already appear in more than one mod? This would be an indicator, in the absence of the author, that there is no problem with re-use with credit given.

    Alpha Squad used some of there work initially, Thales and Lightspeed also used a map or 2 in a mod. Permission to use them was always given. Would be highly surprised if there was a problem here. Getting harder to contact authers these days, need to have some sort of line to draw really. :)

    As much as I want to agree with the comments, I must mention. If you have tried everything to contact someone and have no luck, then go ahead and put there content into your mod. If you release the mod, then this person happens to reappear, and does not want you to use there content.

    Make a backup plan, so you can easily replace there content with something similar, if needed. Pls keep this in mind. Always respect others work, and do not assume it is free to use because they are not contactable.

    Getting mixed results on which order to play the painkiller series in? Seems to be:

    painkiller black edition

    painkiller overdose

    painkiller resurrection

    painkiller redemption

    But overdose seems to be the first in the series.

    Fired them all up to set up the setting...Is there anyway to play black edition SP only without installing gamespy? I see no point or reason to have to install it. <_<

    Picked up Borderlands also. 0:)

    The characters in blood oil where given to be used in blood oil. Same for Centcom, and DF. If I am reading correct, if you where to create a mod using all these characters, you would need to ensure that they remain untouched within there mods, and everyone would need to have all those mods activated to play.

    You cannot just take them out of the mods and put them into a new mod without permission.

    As far as I am aware he never released any of these characters for public use outside of there respective mods.

    Using counters.

    Every 10 seconds the fog and spotting will increase by 1 M. Mission begins with 20M far fog. Script will keep running for 20 minutes before it hits 120M far fog. Then it stops. Here you can easily call a new block and decrease the fog again if needed.

    Feeling sry for a lot of people out there right now for not being able to play the game, from multiply issues. Hope they fix all in a speedy manner.

    All has been near flawless my side so far. Probably a first for me. <_<

    SP has been really good, not far off the finish. Looks fantastic overall. Yeah it is a generic run forward trigger, kill. But some nice moments, and I like the story so far. The sounds, maybe with my new headset, are the nicest touch for me, I think graw sounds back in the days gave that same wow feeling. Run SP with Ultra settings, averaging 50 FPS now.

    MP well not really into it, but I played some games so far. It is a huge world out there, lot of strange maps. Going to play some more of this for sure. Fun having the vehicles in there, I like nothing more than annoying and killing the tanks. Had a littlebird maybe fly over with a MG gunner firing at me. Crouched, pointed at the gunner and fired, he fell out and hit the dirt, awesome.

    Maps look awesome, really enjoying the atmosphere on all I have tried so far. I was running high settings in MP with FPS of around 75. Switching to medium I see hardly anything to cry about. Still a very good looking game.

    Tried the Sparta server last night, but seems it is just an infintry only server? Have to check if they run a full game mode, but was fun. Hope we can get a gr.net server running soon. Think this will be a very popualar game.

    Was hoping to see Dead Island in there, probably going to grab this. Not much price reduction though. Have been interested in Amnesia, though not sure if it is simply a hide and move game the whole way through. Anyone played Amnesia with any thoughts? For under £3 probably get it I guess anyhow. <_<

    [a circle with a number on the] Command Map [?]

    That is the yellow triangles. Move your cursor over them on the command map they should say what they are. If objective 01 is demo a plane, and team Alpha has a demo guy, you send them to the triangle and they will attempt to place a demo.

    Note: This actually does not work though, you will see the AI place a demo but it will not register and he will still have all 3 demo left. However that is how it is supposed to work.
