Paradox has announced he will release promodlive V2 tonight, this is basically promodlive tweaked for reg and classes.
Its assumed that all 3 summer lans will pick up this new mod as the pro community is behind it.
Before few weeks trivve's crew released promod4.42, it was basicly promodlive with few changes and with many bugfixes and usefull additions. Everyone flamed this mod because they were playing on probably best mod (PromodLIVE) so far. But with upcoming positive comments from all sides, i tried that mod too. Game was smoother then on live, no gameplay changes, only great additions for players - classbinds, fps boost, removable scoreboard on left bottom, few hud/menu tweaks and many more. Tonight, this mod will be released with few changes (like sunlight "1.2" again etc) as PromodLIVE v2 and i would like to prevent before stupid comments like "shit mod" "dont make any other mod please" "fuck off with new mod, promodlive is the best". Here you will see the list of changes from "your best mod ever - promodlive". Yes, it was best mod .. it WAS, but the mod was made in few hours and some planned additions were not implemented cos of lack of time.
THERE IS NO RADICAL GAMEPLAY CHANGE (like hitboxes etc), YOU WILL PLAY SAME MOD, SAME GAME ... ONLY WITH SOME USEFULL ADDITIONS AND BUGFIXES.
