The MoH:AA Guide (v1.2)

[Shadow]

The MoH:AA Guide v1.2.
Download Guide: HERE or HERE.
Download Tutorial Pack: HERE.
(The Tutorial Pack includes all tutorials for mapping, skinning, scripting, modding etc. that have been published online for AA/SH/BT).

The guide is specified for Sniper Only & CK Realism, but 85% of the guide will cover information that is useful for All Weapons and/or Default players as well.
More information about All Weapons & Default is included in V1.2 and above.

Roughly 2 years has gone into working on this guide, due to a high amount of information (100+ pages) and University that got into the way (got my degree now so no worries!).

This guide is meant for both player and admins, specifically for newer players & admins or people that just want to get some fresh new ideas.

For players there is a lot of information on: movement, aim, tactics, settings, general skills etc.
For admins there is a lot of information on: anti-cheats, anti-crash, how to spot cheaters, ban & kick systems, rcon commands etc.

For both players & admins there is also a huge list of Bugs that will include the fixes to these bugs.

I hope everyone will find something useful in the guide, even if it’s just one little phrase.
MoH:AA is a great game, and we can only hope that more people will start playing it again and get better and better at it.

p.s. The file is a bit big (roughly 80 MB) due to some of the files in the Appendixes being huge.
p.p.s. There is a Black & White edition of the Guide. The black one has a black background with white letters and the white one a white background with black letters. (Choose what reads better for you.)

Kind Regards,
Brian

Hello Shadow and Welcome to the MFF Forums.

First of all, Great job on your guide. It looks fantastic! I briefly took a look at it and there is some very useful and helpful information. It is definitely something for people to read if they are a regular player, an admin, or someone who likes to mod servers.


Great Work.

I didn't see this (I could be wrong), but maybe under traditions, you can add something about the MOHAA-ATHON.


Other than that, looks great!

Aah, I did write a piece about the MOHAA-ATHON in the Credits & Links list (page 111/112). However it might be a good idea to place a piece about in in the Tradition section as well, will think about it, thanks!

looks nice good work
