Customs Skins and Models

[naph]

So I'm completely addicted to DOD again and am starting to wonder if there still exists hi-res packs of skins, models, sounds, etc to replace the default ones. Does anyone in here use them and if so, do you recommend them? Or has that part of the community pretty much died off at this point?

I still role Vanilla, modded once 5+ years ago, but it just felt strange after so many years of stock.

The server admins of eGO disabled the use of custom skins. This is to prevent wallhack cheating. The server is set at sv_pure 1 in order to prevent what is known as "material wallhack". I believe that weapon skins, and flag skins, should still work.

What about custom sounds? I checked the server whitelist and the sound-custom folder is disabled on eGO server. This is to prevent "sound cheating". It is possible to turn off your own teammate footsteps, and boost up enemy footsteps to ridiculously loud volume, that you can hear people all across the screen.

You can check in the console menu by typing "sv_pure" to see what the server allows. This way you will know what kind of mods are permissible on the eGO servers.

Different servers have different policies. If something does not work on eGO and you want to play with that custom mod, then you can perhaps find other servers where it will be allowed.

Oh man, thanks Cubey - I didn't even think about eGO limiting it on the server side.
