H-street Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 How do you get new Skins to show up in MP games? I have created a new skin ( first one i've made - Thrawn) and i pack it up and i can use it fine.. now if i have my second computer join in it can't see it.. and even worse, when i'm using the new skin and the second computer joins i see him using the new skin also ( even though it is a stormtropper or whatnot) i thought if it was on the server it would auto download as long as the options where checked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Seph Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 You did put the file into the gamedata > base folder? Both computers have the file installed in the same directory? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H-street Posted April 22, 2002 Author Share Posted April 22, 2002 i thought the whole idea of Allow Download was that if the server had it , the client would automatically download it ... but not vice versa ( client has server doesn't).. if everyone has to have the skin installed, instead of just on the server then what is teh auto download button for? from the Readme.txt Auto Download: Setting this option to "yes" will allow connecting clients/players to download new data and code from your server. This is mostly used if you're running a mod (map, skin, etc). i'll install it on the other machine and see if that works.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H-street Posted April 22, 2002 Author Share Posted April 22, 2002 it works fine when the other computer has it installed too.. i'm kindof disappointed the download option doesn't work.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
