Modded weapon skins question
« on: April 05, 2007, 03:03:29 am »
Hey,

Recently I have finally found out how to host dedicated servers. I use Soldat Dedicated Server 1.3.1 beta (v2.5.4) and admin it with Soldat Admin 1.2 for Windows, both downloaded from http://www.soldat.pl/. I've downloaded new weapon skins and want to use it for my online server. I'm wondering if it is possible to make do that by making the player automatically download the files upon entry. I know that people without the files can't see the new skins. Please help  ???

Weapon skin mods are client-side modifications. You can load the weapon settings on your server, but that's it. There's no downloading except for maps when a client connects to the server.

In other words, only the maps, textures and sceneries can be downloaded from the server.

Hey, don't forget about the weapons configurations.  If your weapons are modified(in the weapons.ini) then the player will have the same modifications from that... like, size of ammo clip, time to reload, what weapon shoots, and all that stuff.

Exactly what he said.

You could always have a server message saying download <whatever> mod.. but I doubt anyone would follow it.
