=OKT=Muas Posted May 29, 2018 Posted May 29, 2018 Hello all. Does anyone knows if WOL allows for custom skins, or only the official ones? Thanks.
=OKT=Muas Posted May 29, 2018 Author Posted May 29, 2018 Good. Thank you. It's strange because I see everybody using official skins only... maybe it's my settings?... (Hummm, I wonder why my BOK plate doesn't show...)

So if the server has them, everybody will see them? I mean, will them be downloaded together with the mission?

I bought it after release... well, if it's so, I don't understand the rationale...
9./JG27golani79 Posted June 4, 2018 Posted June 4, 2018 Custom skins aren´t downloaded from the server - you´d need to install every custom skin used by other people on your PC to be able to see them.

Hi all, I think this information about custom skins on MP might be outdated. There is a new option since release 3.001 which you find in the game settings. Like this: If I'm right, with this option your custom skins will be seen by all other on MP servers. Any other explanation does not make sense. So, try this option and check with your friends.

I think the rationale is to encourage people to pre-order, which I assume really helps with the cash flow while they are working on new releases.

Well noted. I think I saw some post somewhere from where I got the idea this was a server side feature...

Cheerio I thought that checkbox was to activate the dropdown menu that enables custom skin usage...I really don't think that it is a multiplayer feature, but will check it out anyway. Thanks.

Nope - you've always been able to select your custom skin but only you could see it. Some MP servers though might lock this selection so that you can only select default skins. The new feature resp. option in the game aims for the possibility to use custom skins online.

Good to know... will try that... but I'm sure the server has to have that option enabled, and usually they don't I believe due to lag issues...
