Hey add my site to the list www.freewebs.com/ttskins it is a skin site.
Cessna's rule!
Another note: on MAX-CR's website, the link to the fast tank set links to the slow tank set.
Here is the correct link
Here you can get the pre-download files for the MODs together with other useful files and things on the download page. The links page will direct you to other Think Tanks websites containing essential things for you to improve your Think Tanks experience.
Thanks Dazzle, very nice work.

-Last Updated Thursday, JANUARY 12, 2006
I want to give this thread to someone.
Who can take over this thread?
Me. I'll change the title to "MODDING RESOURCE- LOOK HERE BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS" (true...) and not abuse my ownership of it. For example, you'll be seeing this:
- DJ Wings's Website
Potentially a good site once he puts in more content
instead of this:
- DJ Wings's Website
0wn4g3!!! J00 h4v3 t0 g0 h3r3! ()|_()|_()|_()|_()|_()|_!!!!!!!!!11
Plus, I'd add info actively, not just at request. But if you want to give it to someone else, fine with me. I could think of a lot of people who'd manage it better than me.
I'm sorry if I'm discussing here, but having checked Leeds Website, it STILL has the url http://www.freewebs.com/flipiters3
Can 1 please change it to http://www.freewebs.com/flipiters
I will delete this post once it has been changed.
Thank you.
Leeds
@Max: I set up a 'Quick Link' to the tutorials (first set), and also a direct link from the homepage to learn about the game itself.
I am hoping to find something new to add to it, so, if you come up with any ideas, don't hesitate to post in the forum (which reminds me, I need to set up a suggestions forum for members only)

EMITTERS SECTION.
:
- Emitter Methods: Some Confusion
I just don't understand why or how people returned to the emitter.cs file method.
It never really worked right and is way to complicated.
I know I'm the one who rewrote the directions for emitters.cs method last June.
We used the emitter.cs file method before PokeMalo released the special.cs.
When PokeMalo released the special.cs back in June 2004 we were thrilled because now could make the emitters work properly.
But at some point since then, somebody started telling everybody to use the emitter.cs method!
- New Directions for Using Emitters
These are directions for using the emitters as weapons and nodes in the special.cs and mission (.mis) file.

We have translated most of the emitter settings from the special.cs file and defined each line of code. (Thanks Nathan)

Chat Logger For Dash Admin Scripts
Disclaimer:
-------------
-READ THE README.TXT FILE!!!
-The abilities granted by this script work best when used with the latest dash scripts and executed at the bottom of your dash/main.cs file...

-if problems do appear, and you have the latest dash scripts, inform me in this thread and I will do my best to help

- Zoom Radar
New & Improved Zoom Radar Versions 2.0, 2.01 & 2.02! For both Mac and Window Users!
- Never Stopping Download Bar
Triv's simple solution to client side object download viewing of documents. In other words this code will show you what your downloading when your at a MOD and the bar seems stuck.
