Custom skins and anti-cheat

[Dimz_RR]

is there a way to add new weapon/uniforms camo to the gam,e , perhaps on a per-map basis ?

i have a map in the workds and it will not be particularly urban , so i would want to change the camo to jungle or woodlands .

The answer to your question is "yes".

The way weapons and uniform skins are added to this game is really very simple. A folder is added to the "local" folder in your GRAW main directory and you are ready to play.

It was very common when I was skinning for Deadly Dozen and Line of Sight for clans to ask for several sets of skins to match all the new maps that were being created. For example, one was in sand, another in the woods, another in winter with snow. Obviously the uniforms could not be the same and look realistic...so 3 sets of uniforms were needed.

In the case of GRAW I would just create a folder on my PC named "GRAW MODS" and then create indivdual folders for each type uniform/weapons mod I needed. When I wanted to change to winter, for example, I would just copy my "winter" mod of uniforms and weapons and paste it into the "local" folder in the main directory. Instant change!

At the present time the folder that contains everything you need for the mod is named "english" or, for some people who create skins, "mods". The use of the "english" folder requires the player to make no file changes....just paste in the new one. The use of "mods" requires you to go into a game file and make a change...easy to do, but some people just don't like to mess with editing game files.

I hope this answeres your question.

In its present state both the server host and clients need custom maps on their systems, this would also be true with any skins/mods that you would want to activate and comply with the AC.

With uniforms or weapons skins you can have them on your PC, host the game, and while others may not have the same skins or see what you see, the game will still run fine. For clans, it's just fun to have everyone seeing your clan patch and uniform.
