Show-case Multiple-Mod Unit Demo Download

[Dol Guldur]

I was thinking about this the other day. Maybe somebody has already done it. I certainly am not not going to, but in case the idea is not out there and some might think it good then I posit it here for others to chew over...

Name: To be decided

Purpose: to show-case up to 20 released Mods in a single download for members of the forum.

Advantage: single download for the downloader to test out the units of up to 20 mods (rather than 20!).

The Org would select, by criteria to be determined, 20 released Mods. This could even be a rolling league.

Each Mod would, if in agreement with the project, submit up to 12 units from a range of their factions coded into one faction (DMB, DM, EDU, EU, cards and cas and texture files/sprites). It would also submit a generic custom-battle location name and image (this will have to reference a vanilla co-ord so the area chosen would thus have to be quite bland). Each mod would also submit a loading screen which can include their website/mod information and images.

A Compiler would have to merge all the unit-build files of course. There might also be some extra work in terms of things such as modded projectiles etc.

I'm sure there will be some fiddly bits and the whole thing may seem a waste of time - then again maybe it will synergistically work out ;)

Just a thought.
