Using Downloaded Skins in a Multiplayer Game

[Mandalore6446]

Ok, I have downloaded 2 skins from this site: They were Jaster Mareel and Montross, 2 mandalorians from a darkhorse comic book series: "Jango Fett: Open Seasons" and I placed the files in gamedata/base.

 

When u enter swjkii multiplayer, the two icons of the mods show up on the main menu setup, and so I click on one of them, pick my saber color, and name my character. So alls good right? Wrong

 

When you enter a multiplayer game, you first pick your character. Well the icon for the character(s) do not show up at all. So I can not be either the 2 mods.

 

BUT, unless I HOST a game in multiplayer, I am able to be the character. Problem is, only 2-3 ppl show up to those games. Why can't I be those 2 skins in a joined multiplayer game?

 

I would appreciate your help! If I have not made myself clear, please say what you are unclear about. I need your answers! I am new at downloading for JKII. Whats going wrong?

Be sure, that you place them in the base folder, and not in any subfolders, as they will only be avalible in that mod!

I believe the answer is that the server you are joining is pure and since the server you join does not have those skins they will not show up. If you find a server which is unprue or already has those skins in their base folder then you can use it but if the server is pure don't count on it.

(if you're new, you can check if a server is pure by clicking Server info)
