I'll be willing to help if i can understand it xD but just a quick question... what about the people that dont have the DLC'S will they just not get certain weapons or will it be implimented in such a way?
Also will the items be sort of scripted to where the user simply "gets" the items on loading as i've been messing with the savefile to give me armor and weapons via the console, which i know can be implemented into a script.
Is that the type of method your are thinking about?
The server is telling which mods have to be installed (DLCs count as mods) and the player who wants to play on that server needs those mods. If the server owner doesn't define any mods, the player will need a clean Fallout install (or at least, vaultmp will automatically disable any mods) to play on the server. This is to ensure that all players on a server are able to obtain the same items etc.
Items can be given / equipped / removed via script (PAWN). The player will be able to take and use items in the game as well, though - as long as the server allows it ;) Furthermore the server can force you to use a specified "default" savegame which can be automatically downloaded via vaultmp from the server. Or you may be allowed to use your own, or "save" your savegame to the server so you can re-download it next time. It will be up to the server config how the game works.
The scripting and "mod" idea seems great! but the implementation of a default save would prevent leveling up and perks wouldn't it?

The idea of downloading a save is great! :) but it will be better if you can automatically download the mods that you need from the server or from a ftp website, like MTA San Andreas ;D ;)
OnClientKeyStateChange(clientid, newkeys, oldkeys)
If this and Textdraws were created I could possibly script a Mouse feature =D
We definitely need support for linux servers, since it's C++, I'm pretty sure it'd be the same since C++ is multios.

Update is coming tomorrow (cell syncing and lots of internal improvements, finally). Next feature coming then is the inventory system: if anyone of you is willing to help out, you can! I have to copy & paste all of Fallout 3 / Fallout: New Vegas items including refIDs and format it like this: https://svn.brickster.net/vaultmp/trunk/Items.h all the info can be taken from https://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Fallout_3_items and https://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Fallout:_New_Vegas_items ;D

I do a bit of programming and REing myself. I also work a lot with splitting and formatting, here are your lists:
(Fallout 3)
--Armor and clothing
https://pastebin.com/P5zrbaCU
--Consumables
https://pastebin.com/jRX8qdhx
--Holodisks and notes
https://pastebin.com/j46rhcbe
--Weapons
https://pastebin.com/5YwAXvq5
That's all for today, will do some more later.
I have suggestion for vaultmp which will compatible with mods from Nexus.
Servers should be complatibled with mods from Nexus. I will use this mod https://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloa...e.php?id=34744 (center TPP camera)

He already said that he will work on mod compatibility, but it is obviously not the priority right now as even syncing is not complete yet.

Wow, thanks a lot, that is definitely boosting the development process :D
