Hi X, thanks for your efforts. Doing an insurgency map is a snap now. Quick question and sorry in advance if it's been answered elsewhere. I've noticed that clients w/o your mod can't join my server. Just want to make sure it's required and that i'm not doing something wrong. Thanks again.

If you put any XLIB modules down on the map and host it, XLIB becomes a dependency and is required to connect.

Hey!

Great mod, with cool features. However when you install the from PwS or from the Armaholic file, there's an error in the mod.cpp file. A " is missing from the first line, which strangely enough won't let the mod start, at least not with PwS. But add the " to the line manually, and you're good to go :)

Just a quick follow-up question, as I haven't been able to find any ansers for it yet. Does the Insurgency module work with vehicles as well? I tried creating a quick mission today, with infantry, boats, and some vehicles, and only the infantry part spawn, where the boats and vehicles just stay at the "mass unit" point.

The insurgency module is only working with infantry ( for patrouling vehicles there will be a seperated module in the future )

My game crashed when i tried to open the "expansions" tab under the "configure" tab in the in-game menu. I got this report: prntscr.com/475dep

Then I read this post and after adding the ", i could open the expansions tab again.

It's a simple fix but many people might be unable to use the expansions tab and not knowing how to fix it.

Thank you =D

You're very welcome, I would suspect this minor error will be corrected by the next update of XLib.
