Cerez Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 This is actually a more advanced coding/scripting request, possibly requiring team work. Since the beginning in this game, Kyle has been used as a default character in MP for any skin/model that the player does not have in their base directory. Personally, I have always thought this was a rather cheap way to manage the situation by Raven. Now that we have possession of the source code, I suggest we have a look at how to create and implement a small script that runs each time a new player/bot joins in on a server, and assigns a random model/skin of the same gender as what the player/bot on the other side is using from the player's current selection of models/skins (or the default/base selection) -- if the player does not have the model/skin used on the other side. This assigned model/skin would then be preserved for the duration of the game (the player's presence on the server) on that individual. This assignment would be handled on the client side. The genders could be parsed from the sounds.cfg files, and communicated by the server to the client. This would help to insure that the monotony of seeing Kyle clones is broken, once and for all. (No more ever-present and boring "take that" taunts from your opponents.) dark_apprentice and Darth Reborn like this Link to comment
