If you play on a server, you'll have to add the "ServerPackages=" lines from 
the readme. Offline (local) it should all be fine. Basically any .u package 
you add to a server you need to create a sp line for. This lets the engine 
know to replicate the mod to all clients.

There's still some groups still playing, though it's dried up considerably 
in the past year. If you run a decent server you can expect a few public 
players but most everyone is clan affiliated out of necessity to find enough 
players.
