While cruising around the servers I ran across one using the survival mod to adjust scoring for MH. To make this simpler, I coded a small mod that will do this without the SV download:
What this mod simply does is set all MH scoring to be done by damage. Instead of jacking 3000 rounds into a super titan and only one person gets the points, every player who does damage gets something. Using this mod gives you a true idea who is owning the server versus someone who knows the high-score monsters.
The default HUD will only register to 9999 on points, but F1 will show you the correct score, as well as the server browser for the world to see your l33tness. I tested this to 10 million points and it was fine online. Enjoy and use as you wish if you code.

Re: MH alternate scoring system
Cool, but don't we already have this?
We had too many problems with whoever gets lucky on the final boss having the highscore.
KB doesn't have it on his MH servers but apparently he was going to add it for a Christmas present...It's a positive kind of plague.

Re: MH alternate scoring system
The mod I did for Herm does have pretty much the same thing. This is for the people who don't necessarily want to load a big mod to use a small part.

Re: MH alternate scoring system

Re: MH alternate scoring system
It would actually be nice if I could get this setting for my PC so when I load my map it has that mutator.
Now that I think of it (I know I always ask too much of you gopo, I'm sorry...) is there anyway to get all the {MHM} mutators onto my monsterhunt so when I load my map or play a MH map offline it's score system is like that, your health and ammo replenish and you don't completely "take" the weapons, and the ammo comes back faster? (I don't wanna go to each weapon and ammo and set the respawn time to 1).

I will either save you or kill you, convince me otherwise.

That mod will do most of what you want. The mod Herm uses is a sister to it.
