Mod Database

  • No no no
    that has nothing to do with the moddb site


    In the past days many mod creators voiced their thoughts and wishes about the presentation of their work.
    The SWAT Portal does host several mods already, some are developed here, others can be downloaded here only.
    The frontpage does offer much information about the games we suppost - also about vanilla FL.
    But we don't host much info about all those mods yet. We need to present them to the players.


    So i came up with the idea to create some kind of mod database. The Portal would have such a link on the FL section. Mod creators basically could submit information about their mods and present them to the public. Story, features, credits, installation instructions.


    The original idea included that the mod creators can submit their content and we will add it to the page. Meanwhile i think its better to allow mod creators to manage their mods, edit them, post images, extend the descriptions if needed.


    This way we can provide more info for the players on a fair base.

    Don't discuss with idiots. They only drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience there.

  • Hmmm...so you would create a new class of moderator for mod creators to manage their own mod page? Sounds like the "anti-LR" :D

    Well from what I've been able to see on the LR page lately it would seem that they no longer provide a forum, downloads, or anything really except links to other sites. Once they have been revived we'll see, but for now think of it the other way around - LR is the "anti-SWAT" perhaps? ^^

  • giving a mod and/or server owner the chance for advertising by showing the mods specs will attract more ppl to come to SWAT. it will simply give more valuable information to be found together at one place before making a choice...

  • yes - that ensures that they can edit their info and update it in case of new versions

  • We just have to remember that this place might look just like LR in a few months time frame. :(


    I support the idea too as LR seems to have no content. :)

    The king and his men stole the queen from her bed
    and bound her in her bones
    The seas be ours and by the powers
    Where we will, we'll roam
    Yo, ho, haul together,
    hoist the colors high
    heave ho, thieves and beggars,
    never shall we die
    Some men have died and some are alive
    And others sail on the sea
    With the keys to the cage and the Devil to pay
    We lay to Fiddler's Green!
