    I'm not adding the weather mod. 

    Hear me out tho as ChatGPT explains the benefits and how it can be implemented to reduce server performance 

     

     

    There are several reasons why adding the Storm Fox 2 weather mod to your Gmod server would be beneficial:

    1. Enhanced Realism: The Storm Fox 2 mod adds a wide range of realistic weather effects to the game, including rain, thunderstorms, fog, and snow. By adding these effects to your server, you can create a more immersive and realistic gaming experience for your players.

    2. Increased Variety: With the Storm Fox 2 mod, you can vary the weather conditions on your server, which can add an extra layer of excitement and challenge to gameplay. For example, heavy rain could make it more difficult for players to see or move around the map, while snow could affect vehicle handling.

    3. Player Engagement: Players are more likely to stay engaged with your server if they have a variety of experiences to enjoy. The Storm Fox 2 mod can help keep players interested and coming back to your server by providing unique weather conditions that they can't find anywhere else.

    4. Customization Options: The Storm Fox 2 mod also offers a variety of customization options, allowing you to tailor the weather effects to your specific server and map. This level of control can help you create a unique and memorable experience for your players.

    Overall, the Storm Fox 2 weather mod is an excellent addition to any Gmod server. It can enhance realism, provide a greater variety of experiences, engage players, and offer customization options. By adding this mod to your server, you can take your gaming experience to the next level and attract more players to your community.

    Here are some tips for using the Storm Fox 2 weather mod in a way that minimizes its impact on server performance:

    1. Adjust the settings: The Storm Fox 2 mod offers a wide range of customization options, including the intensity and frequency of weather effects. By adjusting these settings, you can create a balance between visual realism and server performance. For example, you can reduce the frequency of thunderstorms or snowfall to make them less taxing on the server.

    2. Limit the coverage area: You can limit the coverage area of the weather effects by using the mod's built-in map editor. This can help reduce the number of active weather effects at any given time, which can help improve server performance.

    3. Use a weather controller addon: There are several addons available that can help you control the weather effects on your server more efficiently. For example, the StormFox Weather Controller addon allows you to change weather conditions with a simple chat command, which can help reduce server strain by limiting the number of active weather effects.

    4. Optimize the server hardware: If you're experiencing performance issues, it may be worth considering upgrading the hardware of your server. This can help improve the overall performance of the server, including its ability to handle the Storm Fox 2 weather mod.

    By following these tips, you can use the Storm Fox 2 weather mod in a way that minimizes its impact on server performance, while still providing an immersive and engaging gameplay experience for your players.

Its just floating there while if u back up and look at havoc and blitz they are both correct.... Did anyone else notice it just kinda weird i didnt see this before lol

    +1. Increasing health and armor by 100 won't make the job broken, just gives it more value as a job rather than just skipping it for a jetpack or cloak. IG units are tanks, give them the ability to take a little more hits. I don't see the point in complaining about "balance" when RC shotguns exist.

    RC Shotguns been nerfed.

  4. +1 rys missing his hair style too i believe and everyone on the server is missing armor additions like Cody and thorns rank badges on their chest :/ would be cool if they went back and just did a detail update on all the lore characters like comics said but maybe don't force the community to vote on it since its something everyone would want anyway lol? just quicker (hopefully)

    I mean it looks cool, but even when you guys had these good bodygroups it wasn't an incentive to get on and didn't push for Activity or anything. Seems like small change with very little benefit.

    Although I do agree that you should look slightly different to the average CG

    Slight +1

    Yeah I want this to be known well that this suggestion isn’t us saying “we need to look better to get players” we just want these BGs to stand out more from regular CG and get some more BGs so our guys can customize themselves more than we can now. :)

  6. +1 With regards to the argument against DS we really don't care it wont hurt us as well as us guarding senators yes we do that but we also want to go and expand DS so it doesn't ONLY rely on senators to thrive so I don't see how giving SG some armor and a stim would shake up the server or DS we want to work WITH SG and if that means they can be more capable in guarding senators with these changes then so be it that means DS has more time to do stuff away from the base and work on more RP on our side without worrying about senators 24-7

  7. Name: Arizona

    RP Rank: WO

    Suggestion: Add back old DS BGs update to the new model base. 

    Implementation: Re add the old body groupers and update them to fit the new style. 

    Lore/Explanation: No lore but I want to explain this suggestion here. DS currently has 4 body groupers excluding the basic stuff that everyone has such as: Backpack, Sunvisor, Chest Gun pouch and Kama. We'd like to re-implement the old body groupers back into DS such as the Red kama and white kama options, Black Sunvisor, Red, White and black pauldron options or just any pauldron since we have none now. When it comes to trying to appeal to more players who join CG/DS were working hard to try and implement more RP into our jobs, but RP is half of what people want out of a job on the server. The other half if being able to stand out and look "different" currently DS looks incredibly basic from what they should look like from the old models. I feel like this is something that would help the regiment be more appealing in purely in the aesthetic aspect.
