Given all of the hate on B250 it was only a matter of time before an original NS2 mod came out. I'm pleased to say that along with Samusdroid I have made that mod a reality.

NS2_B249 is a mod that brings all gameplay mechanics back to the pre-BT era. No awkward movement, no stat changes, no relearning the entire game.

Current Status:
The mod works under B250.

Known Issues:
* There are some reports of some plugins not functioning properly. Will look into this.
* Hallucinations have some very minor hiccups but otherwise work.

    Any chance of a NS2_B248 mod? Improved performance is so regressive.

    250 has a better team play feel. I guess if you don't want to, you don't have to adapt, but enjoy diminished player counts. People tried putting NS1.04 servers up after 2.0 was released, even post 3.0, but there was never anyone on them, an actual game got quite rare.

    The only server (24 players) running B249 has been packed all day. No worries here.

    I played it and it works nice. There are still some problems with ARCs (that disappear and can't shoot) Sentry batteries are invisible and cant be built.

    Do you have a log of this? That is really useful for debugging.

    Other mod just included extra stuff since they had problems getting it to work with their mod. They aren't mixing any of it though.

    It's just that my favorite post launch build was 244, so I won't go back for anything besides that

    I'm pretty sure the sentry battery bug was in the other mod. I found that bug during testing and fixed it.

    I do agree that we really ought to pool our resources. Fragmentation will be the death of us.
