Also that Launcher/Config/Advanced/: Peer2Peer/Advanced/All_Options_Are_checked and Game/IgnoreCarPaints_is_unchecked ?

I assume the you've the storm skin/horn issues in multiplayer ?
Could you check if it's the case in solo (edit_a_map, then play inside) ?
And also in a LAN server (local_play, create, etc) ?

Thanks

Checked the settings; everything is normal.
Local play, no skins / horns from me (but I can see others skins)
Solo too.
Even in the Mediatracker; no skins here either.





Does not work with very high preset either.

Greetings.

Ok looks to be another thing then.
When you're selecting your skin in the profile menu, do you see (in this menu) the skin applied in 3d or only the same default skin ?
Is 'StormWoman' skin working (or only StormMan) ?
If StormWoman is working, could you post me an MP with one of your custom skin which is not ?
Thanks

When I'm in profile->model, there's a problem when I click on the alienware skin: It shows the normal StormMan.
There's no problem when I click on Susu or StormWoman: It shows the right model.
My skins files are located in Skins\Models\ArenaPlayer.

I've also checked all the things asked and all my setting are correct. I didn't even notice the skin bug, but I have that too. So no custom horns and no custom skins. Changing to stormwomen does change the physical model, but the skin remains the same. I have 5 custom skins installed, none are shown when chosen in the profile/models. I have 7 custom horns, when I click on one after selecting "general horn" I do hear the sounds. But in-game they are gone, I only hear the default horn.
Talking aout SM here. Got canyon installed, no Valley. Haven't tried Canyon though.

Tested that.



Sorry for the drawing

I found one bug inserted in last version (jully 12th), which make old shootmania skin unloadable (like your alienware one).
This bug will be fixed in next version.
Unfortunately I don't think this 'll solve all skin/horn bug cases posted in that thread.
Thanks

What is the difference between old and new skins? I also have a wip skin which can't be loaded.

The difference is not visible from the zip file: the "Player_1.Solid2.gbx" file format change a bit to allow us getting its format_version, and for old skin, this version wasn't present, the game wrongly thought the skin wasn't loadable (this is only the case when file_version is more recent than .exe, which may happens by using an old un-updated game).

In any case a bug-fix for this case will be pushed to you soon (It's planned but I can not be sure of the actual date).

In this new ManiaPlanet version, the 'skin chooser' menu will show import error message instead of switching to default skin. I hope that will help us find the other skin bug(s).
Thanks

I've reproduced the old_skin bug described later, and also checked it was linked to the horn bug (custom horn was set to default, like the skin in that case): the skin bug fix fixes also the horn bug.
So next version should fix both horn and skin issues seen in ShootMania recently.
Thanks

That would be very nice! Thanks for taking care of this/us !
