After posting this in Tech Support i realized that that probably wast the correct place to post it. So im posting it here.
Is the CM features disabled in H2H? i.e., I want to have a MOTD popup for a H2H session. Is it possible to have a MOTD popup in an H2H session?
I have tried what seems to be the obvious way to set this up, but it doesnt work.
Anyone know?

IIRC, you have to name the text file "motd.h2h.txt" but I seem to remember being corrected and told to name it just "motd.h2h" Try both; one'll work.

I know it can be done. I just cant tell you how.

Try doing a search for MOTD in FreeMultiplayer Forum. Or post there, im sure someone knows how.

Other Option, ask Gianlupo or Raptor01 if you see them online. They are both ex-freeloaders.

WHAT!?! Well, that would explain all the "failed attempts". Anyone know when it might be back up?

Mugz, MOTD worked in H2H till version 2.05.

When 2.06 came out, a bug prevented players to join H2H and patch 2.061 was released to address this matter. Since 2.061, MOTD doesn't work any longer in H2H.

I thought a lot of times about asking Skuzzy or Hitech about this, but, having subscribed, I didn't care that much

I guess it has something to do with the debugging made between 2.06 and 2.061, since it involved a glitch that affected only H2H, maybe it won't be possible to have MOTD back in Free multiplayer...

Anyway, this is the right time to ask:

HiTech, Skuzzy, what happened to MOTD in H2H?
