I experienced add is less buggy as temp.
new temps sometimes randomly start to overwrite other temps.

Also .pkg allows you to modify the armor.ini, surfaceeffects.ini, camera.ini, and others (note: before you make a .pkg your should read up on how to fix the zero bug).

.pkg doesn't work with cameras.ini. I noticed this another day when my cameras weren't working. I had to put it in my data folder to get it to read. Then renguard has a hissy fit. Unless I was doing something wrong (I might of been tho I got it to work later).

Opps, ya actually the only way you can get cameras.ini to work is if it is a Mod, or reload the package once your in the game once (start the server, quit back out, start it again).

You should backup your temps database occasionally, in case they randomly are corrupted.

I think Renegade has a temps limit. Does anyone have any idea what it is?

I think the temps have a size limit something around 350 kb. I think Renegade just probably has a memory limit for temps.
