I've made a mod for MOHAA Breakthrough servers that have set Axis to use a Shotgun instead of the Gewehrgranate (rifle grenade) via the dmflags setting.

This mod changes the picture and selection text of the Gewehrgranate in the weapon selection menu to show a picture of a Shotgun and display "SHOTGUN" text when the default Gewehrgranate area is highlighted.

I made this mod because it annoyed me that even if you have the dmflags set to make axis use the shotgun you still saw the gewehrgranate in the menu.

Due to a lack of interest I won't be setting up a TC:E server. It's a real shame this mod hasn't got the support it deserves. It really is a good mod.

My faithful monitor has passed on :[

My Philips 109P served me well. I rate that monitor 10/10 as it was faultless! Hi res with a high refresh rate equalled many hours of gaming bliss without the slightest hint of eyestrain. I now use my backup Philips 109B6. This is a good monitor and will hopefully last until I find an LCD I'm happy with... still searching... nothing has come close to my old 109P.


A moment of silence please and a cold beer.

Alien Swarm is a mod for Unreal Tournament 2004. It's an overhead view tactical squad-based setup. It's actually one of the few non-FPS games I like.

The Alien Swarm team has released an update for this great mod which addresses some bugs and adds better support for custom maps.
