client uploads skins to server

Got a great new idea for the game?

client uploads skins to server

Postby bobbotheclown » Mon Apr 16, 2012 8:13 pm

the idea is that instead of the skins being only client side, the client uploads his/her skins to the server, and everyone can see them.

now, before you say that people will just run skins that have no blocks, currently the server is able to check whether you have too many blocks in your player kv6 files, why not alter this so it also checks if you have too little blocks?

also, before you say the player will just make his skins one color, why not fix the skin check so that it also checks if the player is running too little of black color changing blocks in his KV6?

it would eliminate the ability to run revealing skins and give you an advantage.

Not exactly your idea, but I think it would be nice if it did this and server admins could turn on being able to see everyone's skins. That way they could tell if someone is using a skin with like 894567 blocks piled on top making everyone visible.

If this was ever added, there should be a client-side option to disable it. That way people who don't want to see everyone's skins don't have to.

it really depends...
IMO, the server hoster should pick maybe 5 skins that players can choose from and play as. So that then we won't have people running around butt naked IG (See the nude mod on the old forums).

Great idea as long as players use cool weapons and not awful stuff.
