Small balance modification: would it work in multiplayer?

[Izual]

Hey modders!

My friends and I have been playing some Tactics multiplayers last week. Problem is, balance is such a mess we have to forbid half the game weapons!

Do not use:
- Big guns.
- YK, gauss, and plasma weapons.
- Automatic shotguns.
- Drugs.

Things would be much easier if the above weapons costed simply more points or did less damage. My question is the following: if I do a small modification to change these weapons, and if I share it with my friends, would it work in multiplayer through, for example, GameRanger?

Second question is - any hint on where I can change that stuff?

Try this. AFAIR, it changes many things, but still may be interesting to you.

Yup, I checked that already.

Unfortunately, it's turn based, and it's also not really understandable. I mean it's not what we aim for.

Try the WW2 multiplayer mod, they changed virtually everything. By comparing their files to the core game you should be able to work out what you need to change.

Yeh, that might do the trick! I found an url to download it - I suppose it is - but I didn't find any topic about it... Do you have a link?

I didn't know there were some big multiplayer modes. It's cool!

The mod is in the downloads section. It's very old and I doubt it was covered much here, they did have their own site but I don't know if it still exists in any form.

Dead link when you try to download

Edit: BN fixed it, hurray!
