Thanks a lot for all the info.

Question though: once this stuff is installed is it going to be a pain to install any patches that come out for the game (if they ever do), etc? Any problems with changed files being misidentified as hacks or anything on public servers?

If an update happens, most of the stuff will just be overwritten if the stuff they replace has been modified in anyway. Otherwise things are cool, most of the mods mentioned are client side only.

Chances are NW won't be ever be updating again anyways.

Alright, so I tried searching to no avail and I'm beginning to feel real goddamn dumb, but how do you set the number of ragdolls to unlimited?

I had ragdolls and corpses mixed up. Turns out I had ragdolls on unlimited the whole time. I'm a dumbass.

EDIT: Having screwed around as a pubbie, I don't think we need a target practice map. The bot-siege server works just fine I think.

There are so many drummers and flag waivers on the servers!

Is this all role playing or is there a benefit from it

They provide buffs to players who are nearby them, as long as it is enabled by the server. Reload faster, move faster, shoot more accurately; the default level doesn't make it ridiculous but it gives them a purpose beyond looking fabulous.

For the record, the majority of servers and events don't have buffs enabled. The SA Sunday line battle is the only event I know that has them on.

That said, if you're playing a siege on attackers and your team seems a little hesitant to actually march through that breach then picking up a flag and running through usually spurs them to action.

No, we're just going to stick with S*P*R*G. I registered us with that name already. Make a clone of your RaW profile people and pick the Chia Clown for the banner.

Also, If the RaW event tonight is sparsely populated we may pull out. We'll see on that one.

We got the Bello Civili event happening in around forty minutes goons. Come and get some more Roman era sword action with us. Make sure you have it downloaded or if you downloaded it a few weeks ago patch it up and pick the Chia clown as your banner.

We're still [S*P*R*G] too.

It hasn't updated since May. If you played it after May, you don't need to update. If you want to be sure just download it from the dropbox.

I don't mind you people asking me, but try and do it in the thread or on STEAM before the line battle so you can play :).

Well this sucks. We still have the NW American line battle tonight I am over seeing. Goons, you got Rifles tonight so try not to get trampled by cav.

Also, we really really need some new Officers. Volunteer if you want to give it a go, be patient with draGoons because when we actually work together and make an effort instead of messing about we really do kick rear end. So give it a try, nobody is going to be 'mad' at you for messing up. We've all been there and gave it a go.

Also, I got us a new Monday EU line battle for Napoleonic Wars. It is starting tomorrow at the usual time.

Leading us into an early death means Pants gets more time to regale us with Yahoo Answers and goons.txt, so it's hard to mess up being officer.

Does anyone want to try out the Wednesday EU BC event? I think it's safe to assume the RaW one is dead.

Officer Cecil_Featherbottom reporting in, chaps! You can find me any day filling as many holes as I'm allowed, or urging the men on to hold tight as possible as we're breached. Many a man's fluids have been sprayed upon me in the midst of battle-- it would turn any other man away, but there's still a ruckus in this old soldier. I've penetrated more men than can be counted; some times eye to eye, but I'm known to leave my dignity in the gun powder and put all of my strength into one big thrust from the rear when it is needed. And needed it is! This is war, after all! Why look at the blood upon my spear.

No man can be counted on more to rally at the ol' pole than Featherbottom, sir.
