UT2004 tips?

[Kirin[SC]]

Hello,

I think the only person that remembers me here is SaD but as with the rest of you guys, I'm Kirin. I used make skins a long time ago but now, I sorta back to it again. I haven't played UT2004 yet but I did obtained a PSK version of some of the models from my brother's copy (they came in the ECE DVD), converted them to OBJ, and extracted the wireframes to play around with and in the process of making a UT2004 skin.

I do have a question though: If I wanted to make Team skins playable in DM games, would I have to use this hack-trick: http://v2.saphiria.net/notes-teamskins.php or does UT2004 already have this feature built-in?

Also, how about the .u file that I would make if server admins want to let clients auto-download my skin from the server? Do I still have to make those for UT2004?

Thanks in advance.

Oh snap! I could make the head of my skin TC-ed too? That's pretty awesome! Now I don't have to worry if the head of my skin is going to look screwy in team games.

Sweet Christmas it's Stupid Fresh!(sm) .... well ... that's what my brother usually says.

You just need to tick a box, Kirin which says 'use team skins'

Yes
