Ok i can set mode1 so it just says authorized, thats as good as it gets.

I think mode4 is the official auth that we used to have?

Why don't you break up the maps so people can choose which ones to download.  Or option to download everything.

I have over 300 maps and I have seen half these hosted on servers before.

So why download something if your never going to play it, unless your like me and don't care if maps are 70Mb and you have over 6GB's of them.

When an enemy isn't moving you can see his shadow and it tells you where he is... some players might think that's an advantage and people saw an opportunity to disput matches, i guess dev team abolished shadow's for that reason in 2.7. Tomorrow I'll post a ss if necessary.

Shadows were not abolished in later version, they just gave you the option to turn them off..

I like them as it is more realistic.

It's possible for tournament mode;
AGP_GameTournament bTournamentOpenAllWeaponClassSlots

So it must be possible for regular mode as well...

I added the correct line to the ini but this still doesn't work. 
They probably didn't add it to the code yet as it's also not in the admin panel.

Well you're going to have to wait until Jonny gets back on. As far as I know he's the only one with the power to change honor here.

So what he gets 2 x 100H accounts.  1 for Free he didnt earn..

To do that you have to take a time machine back to 1980 and change the internet as it was emerging.

Who's up for a challenge then..

Sorry, I was the one that got bitchy and irate. For me (and I know Jonny felt this in the past as well), I'll have what I think are good ideas with good intentions, I'll make a post about them and someone comes along and pretty much insults my ideas. I realize I/we can't please everybody. So, let me explain what the immediate benefits of initial merging would be:

No more moving mAAp/Normal files before starting the game, No duplicates of files (T_UI2 is an example), Trimmed down files (solely for the purpose of re-downloading), Same PB configs, Ability to improve maps (lighting, FPS, fixing any glitches, possible physics).

That's just off the top of my head. You mentioned "look at doing the same for latest version", what do you mean by that? Do you mean adding/ripping features from 2.8?

I don't try and insult anyone, but like to give my thoughts based on my experience.
You know more about the code and how it works than I do, I just don't want to see a situation where we start heading one direction that people don't like. 

If you can guarantee that then changes may be a good thing but I still can't see how I will benefit or anyone else really with most of this.

The things you talk about have already been mostly overcome by time and technology.

Now If you can make me stop lagging on oversea's servers then that would be something.

And yeah the SAI once you get used to it is better that the crappy compass.  You could have a option to have one or the other or both at the same time.  Also makes it hard for the noobs to do spam shots, one reason I don't play bridge, along with the fog that some player have little of.
