Patching extra functionality into <gamemd.exe>

[pd]

Hey "Guest" (same IP as ~zhaihs~ from the thread I locked), if this goes on, Renegade or DCoder should ban your IP.

If you have ideas for new features, put them into the wishlist and vote for them in the votelist.

What you're doing isn't only requesting (which is by itself not wanted here) but also spamming. So leave it or get doomed.

As for this thread's current topic, beta testing certainly isn't a bad idea, but then again any RP version is a public beta, as in WiP and never to be finished, and probably always gonna be a bit buggy (it doesn't mean bugs can't be solved, but new features = new bugs).
So I'd say simply put out new versions more frequently (originally, I had monthly in mind... I know I didn't really go after that myself).

And if there would be beta versions, they shouldn't be public. It wouldn't help if some people just told you "this doesn't work, that doesn't work etc etc" (see Bughouse... some error descriptions just suck).
Experienced modders should test them as they know what they're doing.
