New Version Ideas

by FilbertMM · in ThinkTanks · 09/22/2003 (9:20 am) · 12 replies

Hey Joe. Here are MY ideas! Firstly, how about a limit to mods! Like two mod servers only. Yesterday when I weant on there where at least seven mods! I am getting sorta tired with all the lame ones especially. Also, I think you should work with the maker or Capture The Flag with getting that integrated into the games.
Perhaps make a "skin verification board" of honest, good members, who will OK a skin sent to them. They some how code it then send it back so it could be seen by everyone. This would fix the problem of obscene skins! Let me know.

@Filbert: I have some problems with your ideas. First, mods and skins are players' way of showcasing there creativity, and restricting mods would not sit well with much of the TT comunity. Also, I have not seen any obscene skins to date. If you have a problem with either, why don't you talk with the host/creator?

Heelllooooo, mods make the game different! It can get kind of old just cycling around Medulla Mesa, Freudian Flats, and so on... FoulPlay's downloads make it kinda different but for those who can't or wont't make their own games, mods are cool. And there are no obscene skins.

Ben(SA) - He talks but nothing comes out.. Filbert does.

I have not scene any bad skins either. I HAVE NOT SEEN ANY SKINS! What I am trying to do is get skins in the game! Bravetree, is not allowing players to view other players skins, because they are afraid they would be objectionable. The only reson some would be blocked is so the rest could be gotten in!
Nathan, Don't kill me! (not in real life anyway!) Mods are great, but when there are half a dozen of them, and half of those suck, it gets tiring. Any other ideas! Hope I justified myself.

We are not preventing people from seeing skins. We have just not added the functionality to the game to let other see them. We would like to add this into the game, but in order to do that, we ned to work on the game instead of spending time on email and in the forums answering inquires.

For the time being, if you are modifying the game, you are on your own. We do not have the resources to do tech support for people doing god knows what...

Cumon guys. I want to let him work. The first version was nothing short of a masterpiece! I just one to put in my two cents LIKE EVRY ONE ELSE, Including you all! And I thought other players did want to see eachothers skins. But maybe that is just me!

I don't want to see other people's skins. They could be all warty and icky...

No, actually, someone could make an Invisible tank skin and then get into servers and be invisible. That'd be a real pain in the patootie, so, no, y'all keep your mods to yourselves. :)

I know you don't want to see icky tank skins, that is why I wanted the board of players to make sure they were clean. Get it now?
