It drives me nuts to see people talking badly about hacks that are listed as "unsupported". Cloudrunner can post in this thread and still not support the hack and it would be his decision. He added this modification AS "unsupported". Read above the "install/uninstall" text. Those "boxes" depict what this mod will require. The first box dictates if it will be supported or not. His is not checked, that means unsupported. That means you install at your own risk and if it doesn't work don't complain to the coder to fix it because it will remain "unsupported!"

The simple point is this. No one on this site owes anyone any type of support. They do so on their own time. If a modification is listed as "unsupported" when you install it, don't complain that the author abandoned the mod. How can they abandone something listed as "unsupported"?

If you aren't a coder and can't get it to work, then uninstall it and move on. Save your tears because its getting really old listening to a bunch of whiners complain about the lack of support on a modification that is listed as UNSUPPORTED!
in everyone's defense... have you any idea how many of the mods here don't have that supported button checked... even though they're supported - a ton! have you also noted that this particular mod/hack/whatever DOES have a list of

i guess i could also point out again that the majority of coders here DO NOT accurately check any of those side boxes. notice this hack DOES NOT have the Beta button check although it clearly is. to a new vb.org user or someone new to this particular thread/hack... i can see this as very confusing.
