Skin help

[BringIt3740]

Hello Wolf
We are using Teamfix 9f public at the moment on our Unreal 1 server, and Rush made me custom skins in different colors so that I can activate them in teamgame.

We cant get them to work, we put them in the server packages, but it seems teamfix is over writing them and wont let us use them.
My question is there any way to be able to use the skins on this teamserver that Rush made?

And the last question is, he made a BringIt Bot, for fun that I can activate in one of the maps he made, she talks smack, and is funny, but when her name comes up its always ???? and when she kills you it will say

Jack was killed by

And there is always a blank there, it wont say the Bots name, can this be fixed as well so the Name of the bot shows up in the server when teamfix is on? We disabled teamfix and it showed up fine, so we know its someting in teamfix preventing the bot name to show.

Thanks
BringIt

hmm... I would have to study both issues in more detail than I have time for at the moment, but ...

@Skin prob:
DieHard actually asked a similar question before, UTeamFix uses either the default skins that come with Unreal in teamgame or the custom team skins (when "alternate human skins" are enabled. You cannot directly replace these skins, however, you can create your own skin-package and replace the "UteamSkins.utx" file with your custom made package. Albeit this is prone to creating version confilcts to people who have installed UTeamfix locally, I believe DieHard already successfully did this before.

@custom bot:
I would have to check in detail what happens here using the bot in question (you can email it to me if you like me to take a look). It is true that UTF uses its own ReplicationInfo (which also contains the player / bot name) so it is conceivable that a replacement takes place that drops the name. Can't say anything in detail without looking at it.

Ok
I will email it to you, when teamfix is on, some people can see it says Clone Woman, and some just see ???? as its name, I am one of those people who just see the question marks.
Like I said before, If Teamfix is disabled then the bots name shows up perfect.
Thanks for your help.
Maybe one day someone will find a way to make skins work in team, where if you add the package to the server, you can choose the skin you want without having to make everyone wear the skin.

Sorry about that Wolf, alot going on, I have switch over to EMD4 just to check out the new features, and found that the Bots names and all work with this Mod.

Most people dont want the bots in the game while playing, even if they are fun, we have alot of new cool bots, like a spider bot, and a squirrel bot, a bug bot, a robot that talks to you in a cool voice, also a new bot called the tomb raider bot.

These were all taken from UT and imported into unreal, with great results, if you want to check them out just send a request at Cindyw36@adelphia.net and i can send them to you.

There are alot more that are still being worked on, Rush has been working on Importing Bots and Maps, as well as weapons from UT and making them work in Unreal 1.

Rush even has a map where you pick up a Space Ship as though its a weapon, and then hit your fire button to activate it, then you are sitting in the ship driving it, and fly it around a map , shooting at eachother with rockets that shoot out from your ship.
So there is alot of exciting things that are happening in our server and in his Sniper Paradise, but thanks for your quick reply.
