Good news, bad news, and good or bad news depending on POV

Good news: I've decided to upload my files to http://www.bts-mods.com/. They have just about everything I need, and the price is right. Free!!

Bad news: One thing they don't have is the ability to use sub-folders. Not a problem for files that are all in one RAR file, as I can link directly to them. But for the multi-part files, it will mean having to go through everything in the one area in order to find all the parts. I'm hoping you can still use a download manager there.

Good or bad news depending on your POV: I recently redid my personal copies of the radio station files. I combined all the to date add-ons, removed any unused files, and reworked the readmes. This included better instructions, and adding the real AM frequency info. I also removed the JSGME formatting. Because of the size, most people probably aren't using it anyway for my stations, and it's unnecessary. Other than editting the radio.ini, which you have to do by hand anyway, no files are changed that require JSGME handling. Now you just extract directly to the "Radio" folder. No muss, no fuss, no wasted hard drive space.

The bad part is for anyone who has the original versions, but not the last add-ons. If you want the stuff in them, you'll have to download the complete new versions.

I'll start uploading as soon as everything is set up, hopefully no later than tomorrow. Watch my mod threads for progress reports.
