Really? That's not the impression I'm under. Are you saying that I now have to make Whiteboy's Rules REQUIRE the TX? So I have to put on my site next to the mod download "You MUST go to tx.cannis.net and get the TX to use this mod"? That will put off players I think, and get me yet more emails from n00bs who cannot get the mod to work because they ignored downloading the TX.
On the TX site, it's not clear to me what exactly a modder has to do with it. "The Terrain expansion can make a very worth while addition to mods that plan to include new single player or multi-player maps." it says. Then it goes on to talk about how you can have nice train tracks or something. You have to admit, that does not make it seem like an essential patch - like "someone not having the TX, is just as lame as someone not patching YR to 1.001".
So, the TX can make a good addition to mods that plan to include maps. What if I DIDN'T plan to include any? Would I still need the TX as a patch? Anyway, I DO plan to include maps (a decision I made very recently). They will be TX maps I suppose, if that's what people think they should be. I'm just confused about the whole TX thing, despite reading the site. Cannis, are you saying that every YR player should get it anyway, even if they have no TX maps? If so, how will it affact the game? Will it interfere at all? Can TX owners play online with non-TX owners? Thanks for your time.
