I was looking around for skins, and i decided to scan through the site i was on's Mods section, and i found a Drop Mod, a program that apperantly re-writes always.dat into making something pop up at a certain event(Or atleast this one did). I was wondering if there is a way reverse this process, so i can play a Multi-player Practice without it lagging whenever i see the Airstrip Drop-Off area?

As far as i know drop mods do NOT affect always.dat, or RG would have had a fit Rocked Over

Usually its just a few text files in the ren or data folder which work server-side only, like SSAOW. Go in your ren folder and delete the text files that were created the day you installed the drop mod

Theres a problem there. Im not sure exactly which ones they were. I have over... 700 files in my Renegade Data folder, so its alittle difficult.

well sort them by type and put the view in groups, then it narrows it down to those in the text files group Thumbs Up

Could someone do me a favor, and see if they have the .txt document called asset_report in their Ren Data folder? I want to make sure i delete this damn mod.

asset report is a normal renegade text file, delete it anyway because ren will create a new one on its own, and it could have stuff from the mod in there.

Actually I think ren will recreate any essential text files on its own, so you would probably be ok deleting all of them.

Recruit
the drop mods are a text file, should be something like c130_drop.txt. Not quite sure of the name but its like that.

I would recommend to NOT install ANY mods for Renegade unless
they are installed into a different folder apart from the
Renegade one.

Why would you use "Multiplayer Practice"?

Its alot easier to host a 1 player LAN game and use
maps that have bots in them Smile

Because, i dont always want to play a load of maps, and besides it fun to run through as Deadeye and disable their power in just a few minutes.
Edit: Though thanks for the map pack, im getting it anyway.
