Q: Why are you switching the mods
over to the PPF format? Self-extracting installs are easier to use!
A: There are many advantages of using PPF files instead of
compressing the entire map and making a self-extracting exe. For starters,
file size. There's a very dramatic difference in sizes (under 1KB versus
over 5,500KB). I don't have unlimited file space or bandwidth so that is
an issue. You only need the PPF file to install OR uninstall the mod
(saving me more bandwidth from less Original.exe downloads). You can also
apply multiple mods to the same map (for example, a Rocket+Tank game with No
Shees). That way I can make many small mods, and allow you to pick and
choose, making the game of your dreams.
Q: Are you still going to have the
self-extracting mods available for download?
A: Currently, yes. Any new mods I make will be available only
in PPF format tho. Eventually, I would like to remove all of the
self-extracting exe's (except possibly leaving them available for the most
popular mod or two).
Q: Are the games modded with the PPF
file compatable with those modded with the self-extracting exe?
A: Yes, as long as they are the same mod (i.e. Rocket+Tank v2 Mod).
Q: How do I use these piece of crap
mods?
A: Get KHT.
Q: I installed one of your mods and
when I join someone else's game it's all fucked up!
A: These mods ONLY FUNCTION PROPERLY IF THE HOST IS RUNNING THE
MOD!!! If you join a standard game while using one of these maps, it
doesn't work out well at all. It will appear like the mod, tho function
like the standard game. It really sucks. To restore the normal game,
simply download the original map and install it over
the modded map.
Q: These mods are gay, you suck!
A: Fuck off, cockbite.
