BR not available till a little later in the game , it's a part of the mod to make you think about your tactics ...

when going into the underground level below the single square city where maddog is the underground map shows it as being in the very bottom left hand corner

o wit, shooting someone/beating them up until they're dying, bandaging them up so that they're critical, and then stripping them of all their loot,

This might just be me getting used to not playing with Enemies Drop All, but I've found that some, er, unusual tactics are functioning quite well. To wit, shooting someone/beating them up until they're dying, bandaging them up so that they're critical, and then stripping them of all their loot, and then putting them out of their misery (thereby giving Meltdown a chance to practice STR), is yielding me some good hauls. Even if the tactic does smack of Unusually Ruthless Reubens.

Hi,

Cannot download your mod from links on the 1st page. Widows 7. Do you have some tricks?

Calm down, soldier, there is nothing 'unusual' about your behaviour. The maneuver you're describing is commonly called 'stealing' and has been a common tactic since the days of good ol' Vanilla JA2.
The correct execution of 'stealing' would be like lockie wrote and should usually not involve bandaging.
Advanced methods of stealing involve
- shooting the target to the legs to make him collapse, then charging for him to beat him up
- sneaking up on the target, then beating him up
- if the target is armored, JHP, Glaser or Buckshot are perfect for scoring breath-damage

WIth the AR mod, stealing is a vey important thing for the player to do. The extra stuff you're scoring this way might just be enough to get your ass through the early campaign. :snake:

flagneau, maybe you haven't pressed the right download button yet (there are usually lots of ads having download buttons as well on file-upload.net.
Its the small one right in the center of the page: having a white-on-green arrow pointing down right at its left and "download" written in small letters in the button.

It's also vital, that the "target" is in "weak" or "critical" state. If it isn't, stealing won't work!

or rather add all features of the latest SVN to AR?

Would it be easier to import said features to the latest SVN release

What is your beef with AR mod as it stands ?

I have questions about the Arulco Revisited Mod. I have not downloaded it yet. Will it be updated? What do you have planned for it? Is it better than the aimnas? Does it have the inventory system like aimnas? Can I help in any way?

Yes. What you'rr describing should be doable pretty easily.
Trying to use all features from aimnas and ar at the same time, especially the aimnas items would require some more work.

Note that slapping AR maps over a recent SVN install (Data-1.13 folder) is easy peasy and works like a charm, new features and all. You just have to know what not to overwrite.
Very much an oldschool Frankenstein method but if it works, it works. All this vfs malarkey gives me a headache. :crazy:
