Have you thought about what situations it would be handy/relevant to switch between gameplay in? JK2mv users can simply change servers though, but maybe this could have some benefits too? Either way, seems like a fun project
I started this "feature" before the jk2mv, so... is not the same thing like change between server with different versions (that is nice too) but, if u want the same server to change between versions u need re-open the server with that version, with this mod, u just use a cmd or cvar for that, and live in-game... so thats not the only thing, this is the main feature but not the only. i will put the rest of the things i did in the older version (JK3 Jetpack, grapple, melee weapon, vehicles, account system, map modding, etc... ), and i will not do a different mod for every version, this will be like a multi-version mod, loadable from every version.

But due to client predicition everyone would need a clientside that supports those changes and I decided against it. I think the clientside aspects makes it pretty impractical to have a gameplay changer on a "regular server" (at least for now, maybe I am going to add it sometime anyway).
However if you have a server that requires a specific clientside to play this can be a fun-feature. And I think Tr!FoRcE's server requires his clientside to play on. :mrgreen:
Yes. my mod requires a clientside part. is needed for the smooth gameplay functionally (for example, the 1.02 clientside is completly different, so i was mixed the main differences in only one).
PS: Clientside is not fully required, the game will not crash for a guest... with the force plugin cvar the client will only be on the spectator, but if u disable that they can join and play, but will not be the same experience.
PS2: For example, some friends like play CTF like 1.02, and anothers guys who joins the server are from 1.04, so we switch to 1.04 gameplay specially for Duels, my personal friends play 1.03 gameplay for FFA, etc... thats the purpose
