Hello!

I dunno if this has already been answered,

but im wondering if it will be possible to add new character,vehicle, and weapon models to server sided mods now, because of the auto map uploader thing..

clients would just download the new models and play, correct?
or is it more complicated..

just curious

You can add new vehicles to your maps, yes.

would you have to update individual maps or just edit objects file?
(off topic: did you ever get that crate glitch fixed on that SSGM plugin? Razz)

If so, I hope I'm given the option to download the content... I don't want to end up auto downloading a ton of crap just because I happen to try joining a random server and it ends up being modded to hell.

would it be just as effective to just make the whole thing a .pkg so people just download that?

It seems like it would be easier to that instead of adding it to each map, and basically it would do the same thing?

Only if they decide to add all their custom content inside the map.

According to the announcement and other threads, more than just maps can be auto downloaded.

The patch, originally planned as Core Patch 3, contains the following highlights:

  • scripts.dll 4.0

    • automatic downloading of maps and other content

which is why again, wouldnt be easier to just make it all a .pkg, that way everyone only had to download one thing? Plus you would be free to add new presets and stuff and not worry about server side modding anymore (oh the years of pain, thanks for the tutorials reborn, you have a cool voice on your videos Very Happy)

You can already do that right now, you just gotta tell people to download the file in advance.

I wouldn't like to see it download .pkg files myself, just because of the bugs they can create.
