"new order" in the mod forum?

Users who are viewing this thread

Hi all,
I love this forum, and normaly i check daily, if new mods, tools or interesting topics out there.

But in the last days there was´t enough time to do that and so I become aware of the UNORDER in this forum.

The Resource Thread isn´t up to date, there is NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Overwiev about the newest mod´s and their version number, there is no place to check what is available, what is new, what is the newest version and with which version of Mount and Blade is it compatible and so on...

I think this is a real PROBLEM (at least for me).
The amount of new mods and tools is constantly crowing and together with the updates of the already released mods....
.... sometime the daily "news flood" could end in chaos.

how to solve this "problem" (perhaps it isn´t a real problem, rather a matter of comfort or laziness...)?

my suggestions:

Please create a "new Board" (Sorry, I don´t know the english term, what I call a new Board is comparable with the new "Module System Documentation" "Board" from armangan),
a "Board" only for modders (and tool creators), so they have a place only to present their new mods or to inform us about updates. (A mod announcement board...)
!!!!!! .every mod should get his own thread (I would call it "Mod Announcement Thread") Only the Modder or owner of his thread should be able to write in this thread, so there are no discussions over 50 pages or else, only the clean informations provided by the "Thread Owner"

==> In the end we there is a mere discussion mod Board and a mere "mod announcement and information board"
this is my suggestion.


the only way to get clean mod informations is to visit Janus great Mount&Blade Unofficial File Repository site, unfortunately not every modder adds his mod there...
 
This is a good idea. It would make finding important threads easier. Perhaps only admins should be able to write in a subforum like that so it doesn't get filled with useless threads. Mod makers could then request admin to post update to their topic when they release an update to their mod.

Even if this doesn't get implemented, you can always check out the unofficial irc channel (#mount&blade @ quakenet). We keep a list of new mods in the topic and it is updated at least once every week.
 
there already is the 'Mod Resources Compilation Thread', but I'm not sure when it was last updated.
 
@worbah

The Resource Thread isn´t up to date

the resource compilation thread isn´t up to date, almost any minor mod is a dead link because he isn´t made for mount and blade 0.074 and there is no mirror either for one of the new mods (orcs vs. humans, hundred years war, arena mod, war of the rose etc.) nor for one of the newer tools (map editor ).
