I agree to the above, i mean to say that I also think that a campaign should have the required skins "on board".
Also, it should be very clear which mods are required to play it.
This is in the developer's own interest. If a campaign gets played in a wrong version or mod, It's alsmost a guarantee that something will not work as intended.
So I fully support what has been said here, however there is one thing that remains.
>> a good campaign is also determined by the way it is made and presented.
What am I trying to say? Well, if people make campaigns that can only be played after going through a lot of extra downloading and searching for skins and mods, the campaign will never be popular and is soon forgotten.
In my view it's the user that determines the success of a campaign. The M4T site contains thousands of downloads and as by natural selection, the good stuff is easier to find as it is closer to the top of the list in terms of page hits and reviews.
Another point I might add: have your campaign tested by users! They will tell the dev exactly what needs to be added, 8)
Summary: if you want your work to be appreciated, do everything you can to make it work easily and without hassle. If you do a good job, the reviews will tell that story. :wink:
