I love to play on your server but there is a little thing that I find really annoying. I am talking about some people (at least one !) who are using the warcow skin. That's really hard to headshot them especially when they're good players. It's harder to kill them than players with usual skins and I think it's not fair. In the case of this server it's more or less cheating. That's why I think it could be a good idea to add the rule : no war cow please !! If you don't like this idea, is there a way for me on the client side, to replace a skin by another ?

I think all skins have same size of "hit areas" and "headshot windows", so its not cheating... dunno if you can disbale that skin somehow, but headshots on cow are easy - dont aim on cows head, but on rifle on cows head - there is headshot window. Smile

Yes I know it's possible to headshot cows, but it simply a bit harder (for me) especially in close combat when there are lots of players around you. It's a bit confusing and when I shot very quickly without taking time to aim, I miss more often with cows Sad

But ok that's not dramatic.

I have seen this question in another forum and the reply was that the cow uses the same size hit area as any other model.
But, I also find cows harder to hit Smile

Just xloc them Wink

lol i dislike that skin too. But there is a remedy. You can disable that skin on the client side. I did it one time on accident, I havent retried, so I can't walk you through the steps, but I do know it is possible. Whenever someone was using warcow, I saw the male soldier.

I am thinking it is basically, making a copy of another .utx file (maybe male soldier) renaming it the same filename as warcow and then UT reads that filename and shows the male soldier for the warcow.

LOL, thought I would test out a cow skin cuz I know I have probs with them. Well came in on canyon and ended up with a score of 92 so the cow skin definitly helps some.

np cow

im still able to see cows in game-DEAD COWS : ROFL

yup youre right sly its much more difficult to

shoot cows then other skins especially on medium or long distances
but a lot of ppl make cows to their favorite targets
so it should be ok Smile
