    Summer Mod Night #6: Sandbox 0.5

    Battlefield 2's acclaimed Sandbox mod allows you to manipulate just about every object and aspect of Battlefield 2 into your very own creations. The Sir. Community just released the newest version of it, and we'll be playing with it this Wednesday. According to Spawndemon from TotalBF2, many new objects have been added, including the Battleracer DPV—the boost on this car allows you to build racetracks with massive loops and such. You now have the grappling hook and zipline from Special Forces at your disposal to aid in construction. "The main menu also includes a Starter Guide that serves as a quick reference to all the functions in Sandbox.

    The biggest addition in 0.5 is the grouping functionality. This allows you to group hundreds of objects together and move them as one. Groups can be saved using the new Sandbox Network feature and then loaded on any server in any map. Grouping makes it extremely easy to construct massive creations."

    Here's the trailer for 0.5, via youtube:

    The time will of course be 8:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. The server will be *new* Lowerview Camobox with IP address 8.3.7.67.

    EDIT: The time will now be Thursday at 8:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, due to Wednesday being the 4th of July.

    Sandbox 0.5 is a bit unstable, possibly because of the Sandbox Network feature or the new UAV object. It's definitely worth it, but a server crash or two should be expected. Don't worry though, the server should be back up the moment it crashes, so just reconnect with the IP address.

    Whoops, I forgot Wednesday is the 4th of July. I hope this won't affect turnout too much. Should I change the day?

    Yeah, let's change it to Thursday instead, at the same time. Due to circumstances, we may not be able to change the name, so just connect to the IP address.
