AWE for Cassino server? Options

[pezking]

What are the possibilities of adding AWE to the Cassino server for awhile to see how it goes? The mod offers so many options which can be turned on or off. The newest release is for CoD and UO, they also have a new CoD2 AWE mod which is sweet. Anyway, guess there needs to be some feedback. Here's some of the features in AWE. I will bold the ones that I'm interested in.

Again, nothing wrong with the stock settings that are in Cassino now... just trying to shake things up a little bit, possibly get more people on the server as well.


Features
--------
- Effects from Ravir's Demolition (Mortars and hitblip)
- C47 planes flying by on all stock maps and should work on most custom maps too.
- Teamkill and/or teamdamage detection with different punishments.
- Camping detection and marking of campers.

In teamplay the camper will be marked with a headicon that flashes between team headicon
and a star, and marked on the compass with an objective icon that flashes between a team
radio icon and the default objective icon.

In deathmatch the camper will be marked with the default objective icon on the compass
and the headicon will flash been a star and a crosshair.

Another problem with smoke is that after 30 seconds the entire map is filled with smoke.
The problem with AWE on Cassino is that 75% of the fighting takes place in buildings shooting at openings in other buildings. If you add trip wires nobody is going to be able to move anywhere and it will create a whole new game that goes against what cassino is best at providing. I don't play there really, anymore, but all the changes we made to it were made to make it as fun as possible. That is why all the Cassino regs play there, right? If you start screwing with it you risk losing the players that keep it going.
I'd rather see other maps brought into the rotation before making it AWE. Or, if it does go AWE, I prefer to see a map rotation. I'd probably play there if we started putting in other maps.
But most likely not, since if I want to play TDM I'll play COD2.
Speaking of which, all you Cassino guys should get COD2 and get that server rocking. If you can play UO you can play COD2, despite what the PC requirements are. I don't come anywhere near meeting the requirements for COD2, yet I play it just fine. Could be a lot better, but I think it runs smoother than UO to be honest.
Download the demo and see if it plays for you. If it works for me it should work for you.
BTW my graphics card is a geforce2gts.
