EDIT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sorry to be the barer of bad tidings. We've found an issue whereby a player attempting to disconnect from a server while still in a vehicle will cause the server to shut down. We need to fix this. If you'd still like to continue running a KFVM server while this is being looked into there are a couple of measures you can take.
1) Put 'DO NOT DISCONNECT WHILE IN A VEHICLE' in your server name, joining message of the day, or server message mutator.
2) Set your server to reboot on a crash should someone inadvertantly not heed the warning. A script we borrowed from RO is as follows. Edit as per your server setup.
Make a 'Logs' folder on the 'desktop' to contain a log file this script will create. It will show you how many times the server reboots. The command line also makes a server.log file in the system folder but this will get overwritten on each restart.

Well, release day has arrived and if you're eager to get in there here's the download main page link.
YouTube - Multistorey Carpark for the Killing Floor Vehicle Mod
Available Downloads
There are currently 3 download files to choose from as follows:
Killing Floor Vehicle Mod - Version 1001 (Auto)
This download contains all of the necessary mod files for the Killing Floor Vehicle Mod as a self executable file but without the maps. This is a small download of about 30mb. It will allow you to join a dedicated server that will typically have the maps on a download redirect. The installer will add the mod files to your default Killing Floor folder location and requires a few simple clicks. If your Killing Floor installation is in a custom location you can use the browse feature to locate the main Killing Floor folder.
Killing Floor Vehicle Mod - Version 1001 (Manual)
This download contains all of the necessary mod files for the Killing Floor Vehicle Mod for manual installation. This is a small download of about 34mb. It will allow you to join a dedicated server that will typically have the maps on a download redirect. This installation is beneficial for server hosts and gamers who prefer not to use self executable files.
Killing Floor Vehicle Mod - Map Pack 1
This download contains all of the Killing Floor Vehicle Mod maps. It is a large download of about 151mb. This is necessary for server hosts and gamers who would like to play the mod in solo mode. You will need to manually add the maps to your Killing Floor Maps folder.
It is also possible to play the mod without requiring any active installation on the part of the client by joining a server that has all of the mod files on a download redirect. This way you will be able to simply join a server running the mod and have the files downloaded to a cache folder.
Don't forget there's a KFVM_Readme text file in your Killing Floor folder for auto installers and in the main directory of the zipped folder for manual installers.
Thank you to TW Forum members for your continued support and feedback during the development process and we wish you a lot of carrrazy vehicle mayhem. Thanks also to the Beta testers, and Jestservers.com and Sandcrawler.net for server and file hosting. A final BIG shout to the TWI team for your continued professional support for this fine game.
Braindead and arramus.
