Last Month the Japanese try to retrive this mod a little bit more. They played in the at 2pm CET. At the moment the gametracker,com Server Monitorring is off. Hope soon they turn it on. The ranking seems to work.
No I only work with Battlecraft. ED42 would always crash on me and getting things to work the way I wanted was a pain in the ass. The only thing I liked about it was the road tool. It doesn't matter much about the snow textures, it's just a continuous repetition and they looked like crap anyway. You could just redo them (and maybe make them look better!)
