That's not a bug, it's been deliberately set like that. I seem to remember an official reason for that, stating it was for balance reasons, presumably to prevent it being used so easily as a close-combat weapon like it was in UT.

that stuff about your skin has to be a default character if bForceDefaultCharacter is really takin the dogs tbh

whatever we have set to default char then we will also be forced to be "ie" Gorge/Rylisa?

yes, thanks god. People forcing gorge and playing as matrix have had it FAR too easy.

So, say I use Xan... Everyone male and female... will all be Xan?



OR.. say im using a custom skin... Will all players turn into that custom skin also? (Skin and not new models, models have added/diffrent animations etc etc, like a diffrent skin for the Torch model. )



Sounds real cool from the looks of it.

I don't like force default models. I used them for a little while in UT99 but didn't like not seeing the cow and skaarj. I like all the skins, some may be more of a challenge to hit, but for me that's what the game is all about.

GGs today clubber, now quit running me over.

Ah great, i sure hope there's a client-side way to turn that off (force undefault models?) i realy dont want to play if everyone looks like george. It's like forcing me to use defualt models

Default model is client side, or at least normaly it is, unless its part of a mutator or mod.

no but to turn off turning players into george i they're using defaults and you're not. Mabye a setting so the 'PlacedCharacter' could be randomised.

- limit speedhack detection logging

LOL!
I wonder if the beta server or servers are catching to many speed hackers and the logs are getting to big?

[legacy-blurredvision]

So can someone please send me a link to this new beta patch??? I can't get anyone to throw me a bone!!

[legacy-catphile]

Yes! Fixing the forced model issue is awesome. Not quite up there with the no-disk, but it's very cool. Nice fix, epic! :up: :up: :up:

PS - gimmie, gimmie, gimmie

I'd been wondering if that was really what he was whining about.

Mr.Evil is correct, it is by design for balance reasons.
