I am making this thread to gain insight to many answers as I mod my personal version of SOA2. Its also a place for me to store answers to many questions I have seen and read on the forum already, and while I am modding SOA2 many questions I have are kind of generic and thus probably could be answered by anybody and this is why I am placing this on the main modding forum versus under the SOA2 thread.

    So if you see something you know you can answer feel free to post a reply. Or if you know of any good links containing answers feel free to post them

Below is a list of the various aspects I wish to touch on in this mod with the objective will be to slow my version down considerably thus making it playable by me in the very limited time I have to play. Its also more of a solo campaign kind of play if you will as well with me playing as the Federation thus this mod intentions is for a single very long game that will not be meant to be replayable and random I am sure by the time I am done with this I will have had my fill and go on to so other mod Ha. Ha.
