Now that the netcode has been improved perhaps its time to test the custom skins again? :thumbsup:

Yeah I agree, but I have serious doubts that this piece of the puzzle was looked at. Sometime we'll give it a go though.

Is there anyway to prevent hello kitty skins? Like submit your skin to be approved rather than allow any?

Agree. Letting any custom skins in would be a disaster imo.

+1

Even some of the stock skins are sketchy.

With no offense to all the very good skinners that may reside here, I believe there must be plenty of "Historical" skins so that we don't have to worry about Hello Kitty or Red Bull type aircraft. Just my opinion ....

Hopefully custom skins work, or will work at some point, online. If or when that does happen, you could start a library of approved skins here on the forums.

You could start it off with some of your favorites, and as people submit their own, the approved ones could be added to this library.
It would eventually make it really easy for someone to find an ok skin without having to wait for it's approval.
Of, course, it's just an idea. :recon:

And it all rests on whether or not the netcode will be improved enough to even support custom skins.

Sadly it doesn't work like that. Custom skins are either off or on. That means somebody that saves their skin in the wrong format (IE - a 20mb file) could load up that skin in game and force everyone else to download that skin. I think that was part of the problem when we initially had custom skins turned on. Almost every player would get a huge freeze when they were enabled. I did ask for a feature like that to the devs sometime back. But I didn't get an answer.

I think it would be great to be able to have skin packs that the server could store, then the clients could download the pack, and with that you'd automatically be synced with what was approved server side and client side (no freezing!). Maybe that's just wishful thinking :)

Either way, we'll definitely have to give it a test to see if it has improved. I'm just guessing it hasn't though :D
