Custom Skins

[Shortbus]

So apparently you guys are abolishing the use of custom skins... i was wondering why so i did some research on different types of skins that are out there.

The lamest skins i found were ones where you could change the opacity of the walls, kind of like a map hack except undetectable (?). There were also ones that change the model's head color for easier headshots which is pretty lame too.

If what you guys intend to do with the skins will prevent any1 from using these then good job, otherwise why bother tampering with them?

Yes the idea is to stop people using simple tricks to cheat.

What took so long to decide to implement them on td?

edit: is there any way to see whos using skins and which skins they are using? that way you can ban the ppl that are using them to gain unfair advantages since they dont get caught by vac and what not.

its a retarded move imo. not alot of people use them to begin with, and those who use sorely unfair skins i doubt come around often at all. oh well, i guess it's 'good-bye' to my chewie skins.

I have often wondered if using a bright ( neon type ) of skin is even available ... if it is ... it certainly would give an enormous advantage to whoever uses it. I agree ... set the skins to normal ... long overdue... just takes one more variable out of the equation.

I apologize to the people who use fun or cool skins to make the game seem better, but it had to be done to prevent people from gaining an advantage. Bright skins are better than any hack out there, and impossible to VAC. I suspect we will see a few peoples KD ratios go down shortly.

 

[Hawk-Eye]

well is the no skin thing in effect right now?
if it is, will it also affect weapon skins? coz...althoug i only got it today, My salmon slap instead of knife is making me laugh LoL

We are only doing play skins, player sounds and map materials, custom weapons and custom weapon sounds are ok.
