In any case, I agree wholeheartedly with this effort. As a user of custom tailored mods, there is much in RFB or TM I respect but I'm not interested in, and many people see it also that way (Hey you can't please evryone everytime, and anyway both TM and RFB authors warn that their mods are -as it should be- their personal vision of what must be improved)

This is what I perceive to be the biggest challenge to making a community patch. I consider the leaky pipes to be a bug, because there is no way to turn them off once repairs are done. Others think it's not a bug. We would certainly have to compile a list of all possible bugs and all vote on every single one of them to make it fair.

Some things are undoubtedly a bug, like the missing dials in the Gato conning tower, others are debatable. But I think that a good start would already be to fix those things that are clearly broken and everybody agrees at that. :hmm:

the big drawback is you need to learn how to mod so you understand how to remove unwanted stuff and understand what files effect what so you know how to decide if you can safely remove them. it takes time to figure some of the mods out so you get the results you are looking for. sometimes the mod maker will help you in your efforts but sometimes a person may be less willing and you will have to do it on your own.

In most cases it would be a matter of replacing files or making the proper tweak. The author of the fix will surely help here and I suspect that once having implemented some, knowledge would have already been aquired about how it all works.
Also, S3D editor would be a great help
.
What is needed now is someone with the will and time to lead this group. It doesn't matter if he/she can mod or not, his task is to coordinate the efforts of others, ask for permissions, write readmes, etc.
Any volunteer?
