It's an OK "guide" but it needs more, and better organization, IMO before people can really start using it as such.
Seriously, Foe, you already knew that I have my own server... you could've asked me to set up a subdomain for you! However, I recommend Sourceforge or Google Code because my SVN doesn't integrate with everything else like the big guys' do.
As to modded Tremulous, yeah, it's "another horrible balance change" but I've been an X regular for months now. It's fun and it's a good community, even if it isn't pure Trem, and sometimes it's exciting to break away from the norm and go play with really beefed-up classes and weapons. In the meantime, my dretching on pure servers has most certainly suffered as a result, haha. At any rate, it's really fun to figure out ways to code really weird never-before-attempted functionality into Trem, even if it isn't practical; Spectator has actually set up a server dedicated to this purpose, and it changes on a whim when one of the devs decide to try out something new. Sex is X's resident modder who implements the really crazy changes, and they are interesting, albeit not something you'll want to play full-time.
