Reply to A Small Map Pack w/ mapinstall.exe in Sins Multiplayer Sins Forums

I've been crying about an automatic map downloader on ICO since day one. Would give a lot of life to the community... having to post on your own website / wincustomize is a total pain-- and most casual players aren't going to go out of their way to do it. The devs have bigger fish to fry, but automatic map installs are definitely something I'd like to see added at some point. DrGonzo

Not Windows 7... just Vista SP3 run through another Mojave Experiment: Convince hordes of people, who probably shouldn't be on networked computers, that Windows Vista is not Windows Vista... Also: As far as I know Microsoft allows an upgrade disk to install a fresh copy, it will just request the media of a previous version to ensure that the upgrade is valid. Maybe they changed this with Vista SP3... but if they did, it's just another reason to question why you'd want W
