I was testing my light tank model, the one with the turret on the left and when i wanted to join a game online no servers would show, so i delete the w3d file and servers started showing, i put it back in, and they dont show....can anyone explain why this happens, I want to use the left turret light tank online because it looks more beta'y, anyone help?

AoB you are correct. Though i don't know why yet. I think it has something to do with the core patch, or maybe even renguard, even if you are playing without renguard but you have it installed.
Basicly, in my CP2/RG (playing with out RG enabled) Renegade this is aloud.
Guns models, (f_gm, w, w_b)
Skins, of all types etc
Things that aren't aloud
Vehc models,
Char models.
When you try to load up the advanced game listings with something i listed above under the aren't aloud section no servers will show up.
My theory. Something in core patch2 makes it so that when there is anything v_****.w3d or c_****.w3d it just cancels the online opperation. It's a simple way to stop hacking.
If there is anyone that doesn't have CP2 or RG installed try using a custom model online pls.
*edit* Link me to the file that actualy works online.

that could be considered cheating... your round will be coming out of a different place then everyone else (assuming you moved the bones)
While your .5 m difference wouldn't have effect, what if it was 10m? Or something stupid like that? Something that starts off as an innocent mod could very easily be twisted into something EVIL!!!!!

They don't show because that's how Westwood intended it; if you have something too different from what everyone else has, you can't play in the same game.
|
If that were true there'd be no such thing as big heads or big weapons etc etc. You don't get a server listing if you have an objects.ddb file, that's all.
|
You login to WOL/XWis then Alt+tab and drop them in after your connected.
