I would like to second this- Or maybe to create three versions, one of stargates/teleport rings, one of stargate/ring/fishing village, and one of stargate/ring/village/ruins. We're running Extinction alongside 14 other mods, including this one, and the sheer weight is causing some of our users with potato computers to be unable to connect for the sheer loading time. We love stargates, and everything about stargates and what it unlocks for our map, but the ability to remove the map extensions outright would be greatly appreciated.

Same at @FT, totally agreed.

this is already available...you can lock every part of this mod with settings. thx to read the pinned posts before asking/posting useless topics...

@guig Your answer is pointless..

Look first, we dont need to lock part of mod, we need to reduce overal size of all mods for faster loads and no stalls on weak PC's.

AND FYI i read all pinned and mod config related posts.

well if you expect 4 versions of this mod with 4 different content just for weight, you can pass your way sorry. it won't happen. and yeah i speak for oxxy by saying this, i know for sure he won't do it just for that, too much work for not much saved, + you have to consider than from now he would have to keep up with each version = +++ work for a little few people who can't use ini settings cause "they have their reason". so yeah too much work, won't happen. (so maybe not so a pointless answer).

Already was stated at one point he won't make a Lte version of the mod

@guig:
You are not the author and if you don't have nothing constructive to say, dont say anything please. We dont need 4 mod versions, just lite version - request. If this cant be done, we still can alive - this is only game - for you not?

Ini settings cant resolve alot issues with map expansions...

And next time, look at other topics where i posted and don't insult all people again just because you have different opinion.

@Ocren:
Thanks, i dont see nothing about this before :)

i never insulted you, you felt offended, sorry for that.

and i said the same thing, just explained it to you.

@guig I'm apparently badly construed your message. Peace :)

From what I know,
The time "wasted" on connection to a server is not due to the size of the mods itself.
When you connect, it checks your local mods versions against steam or server (remote) mod versions.
So no matter how big they are, the only significant thing, is the number they are.

So doing 4 versions will not help.

It would only help on the first time download of my mod, since its quite tiny compared to ark updates lol. Update are incremental (only changes & additions are downloaded/updated)

There is the other Stargate mod as a lighter alternative.

It is literally the stargate, a DHD, and a device to press the buttons on the DHD (Remote). About as light as it gets.
