Hey all!

With this update we'll be optimizing our server files and download times while updating our content pack thread with new asset packs and an updated map pack!

To lighten the overall size of our custom content, some larger maps, older models and other content have been removed as well. We welcome your feedback as always and encourage you to let us know if you have any suggestions or bug reports for our servers!

Feel free to visit DFS Content Pack thread[dfs.boards.net] for more info regarding content packs!

Optimization & Content Pack Updates

Added new packs to the Content Pack thread[dfs.boards.net] DFS Boards thread:
- Updated Map pack
- Assets pack containing a complete collection of all DFS custom materials, models and sounds
- Separate packs for DFS custom materials, models and sounds
Detailed information (e.g. pack sizes, installation instructions, etc.) can be found in the Content Pack thread[dfs.boards.net]
