How to use custom made skins?

ZZMaj · 19th Jun 2000, 09:51 AM

Hi folks

Can anybody give me some useful link on how to use custom skins. If I d/l skin or make my own skin, how other people who connect (to the same server I connect to) can view my skin. Does it have to be installed somewhere on the server so other players receive it like they receive new map?
My version is 420 + bonus pack.

Any help appreciated.
Thanks
ZZMaj

For it to work on a server, it needs to be a "server package". Do this by placing a "ServerPackages=" line in your unrealtournament.ini file:

[Engine.GameEngine]
CacheSizeMegs=8
UseSound=True
ServerPackages=SoldierSkins
ServerPackages=CommandoSkins
ServerPackages=FCommandoSkins
ServerPackages=SGirlSkins
ServerPackages=BossSkins
ServerPackages=Botpack
ServerPackages=MultiMesh
ServerPackages=Relics
ServerPackages=EpicCustomModels
ServerPackages=MyCoolSkin

Just to avoid any missunderstanding:

The change, that Rit describes has to be made in the ini of the SERVER, this means it has to be done by the server admin.

Yes ZZMaj, that's for people connecting to YOUR machine/server. Unlike some other games (Half-Life), if a server doesn't have the custom skin, you won't be able to use it at all.
