> HPS doesn't offer support for third-party games.

Lets be fair here - it is pretty difficult for someone to look at or address issues on third party scns when we don't have the files or could be looking at different versions of the files than you are. Far better to have these issues address by the person who made the file - OR - the situations be shown using standard game files.

I know a lot of people get bitten by not being able to get help with Volcano's _Alt scns, understand these _Alt Packs come with art which are images "mined" from all sorts of various sources on the Internet and some of you may not know that John Tiller was once sued by a company who claimed artwork was "stolen" - so he is understandably touchy about any art or images showing up in new games which are not his. As a result - I avoid loading art packs of any kind. That way I can't accidently use an image from an Art Pack in a new game should I require a tank or a gun from a previous title.

Besides, Ed supports is stuff as well as HPS Support the standard stuff. And there is enough experienced Players on the forum who can read these files and translate issues to regular HPS files so we can have things address by John Tiller when\if required.
