So...
Could it be it's not working properly because of either a server setting or server cache?

Re: Problem with Custom multiplayer skins[fixed]
I've been pulling my hair out trying to figure this one out.
Thus far my experience:
Player 1 : from Germany +- 3 mins (both car and avatar)
Player 2 : from RSA +- 2 hours for avatar (no car skins, still as grey as my hair is becoming)
Player 3: from another country - well randomly I see an avatar, but no car skins
So.... I don't know.

We also never know if all players have the same version of ManiaPlanet installed.
If they did not chose to have optional updates, or reverted, they might still be on ManiaPlanet 1.0.

Not really sure but I'm guessing if they still are on mp1 the can't connect to the servers or?
Re: Problem with Custom multiplayer skins[fixed]
They certainly can connect to servers that are also running the older versionzarexz wrote:Not really sure but I'm guessing if they still are on mp1 the can't connect to the servers or?

But like you I doubt connection to new servers is working fine, unless the changes are backwards compatible.

Sorry for this stupid bump, but I still see most of my opponents as grey, except those that use the default skins that came with the game...
I bought the game on steam today.

OK another update from my side.
I went through my cache folder.. and guess what ? lots of car skins in there !!! So they do actually download/upload !!
So why don't they show in-game ? I checked all my settings to show customs cars etc.. but nothing to my knowledge revealed any light.
I want to see cars other than grey please, it's like going to a funeral every time I play online

Re: Problem with Custom multiplayer skins[fixed]
carskin disappearing still occurs... to anyone and on most servers...
its like u are racing all is oka .. but then you change server and suddenly you are racing with grey car ...
then you pres TAB a click on yourself and there you see that it says your skin is Stadiumdefaultskin.
after that when you simply go to profile and pick your skin again there is no problem .. but it happens once in hour ..
my observation suggest it happens when u quickly switch through more servers..
i dont know why .. my skin has locator and all is working .. only from time to time it changes to that grey stadium defaultskin
i have no idea why, its not server settings or p2p problem, it occurs without any apparent cause on any server to any player..
and i`m not noob or non technical man .. been in tm for 7yrs all time running own SAW server as a masteradmin..
any hints or ideas ?
