Thanks guys, for taking the lead on responding to this thread. I'm having some family issues right now (my dog is in the process of dying - she's quite old, but it's very depressing) so it's hard to keep abreast of what's going on on the forums.
I suggest, as others have said, that players who are interested in realism try the mod. Use the Jonesoft Generic Mod Enabler to install it. This mod enabler is available at my website (
www.beerymod.com). With the mod enabler you can install the mod and uninstall it in a few seconds, and you can use it to help you remove the parts of the mod you don't like (by uninstalling the mod and removing the offending files from the mod, then re-installing it). If you don't like part of the mod, just post on these forums about what you want to remove, and people will let you know how to do it.
