Summary

0003667: Full Release files missing from steam, patches only for RHSUSAF and RHSAFRF

Description

Not to sound ungrateful but the last two updates have been messed up. Where are players supposed to download the full RHS Mods? These are only patches on steam. If a new player doesn't have the base files then they will be missing half the stuff in the game. You basically just killed every Exile server out there that uses your mods because half the PBO's are gone, which means most of the vehicles wont show in the traders! If I start up my server with these files from today it says RHS_Decals are missing along with several other PBO's. PLEASE BRING BACK THE FULL RELEASES or server admins will be forced to use other crappy mods like CUP and MAS until this is fixed. I basically had to merge 4.3.0 with 4.3.1 to get everything to show up because I copied and pasted the new files into the old. If you dont then half the stuff is missing. This has broken quite alot of servers from other admins I have been speaking with.

Additional Information

Please make available the full release of the RHS mods instead of patches on Steam and at least the full release on your website with a mirror to download.

Notes
(0006804) Soul_Assassin (administrator) 2017-10-19 07:39	Honestly I have no idea what you mean. Steam provides DELTA patching, not just patching. Means it downloads what you need, meaning if you don't have anything it will download the whole mod. That's how it works for everyone and we have had no problem with steam for a year. And also how does it kill just Exile servers? Normal players just subscribe to the mods on steam and they will ALWAYS have the full latest mod. With that being said sometimes steam corrupts. Have to either verify the integrity of the game cache or redownload it to fix it. In fact server admins should always purge and redownload to make sure the integrity is valid. We will not make full release for now available on our site because of bandwidth costs. With almost 450,000 subscribers per mod we cannot handle the throughput.
