Title: A Little question
Post by: Elite Commander on July 30, 2006, 02:54:16 PM

The thing is.... actually... you can't... lol
The Golden-Guys at LucasArts did not allow custom skins. So you cannot add skins to the list, but only overwrite existing skins. If you would overwrite skins, everyone in MP who uses the original skin would have YOUR skin (on your screen). The other players would not notice that, but on your screen they'd all look pink or whatever, so you can make them out easier --> Ch33t0r. So it's basically a cheat protection, that you cannot join servers with edited skins. But normally it does not crash, but show you some error message as far as i know.
btw, you are able to host servers while you have modded skins, but then only people who have the same mod can join.

oh well maybe i'm not up to date anymore :/ Haven't played RC for about 2 years now due to compatibility issues or something.

thats probably because there are white clonetextures (like the "Player Commando") in the usual RC-package; it's the same skin used for the clone you see in SP when using "togglebehindview".
