Hi everyone.

After rebuilding my PC and attempting to put Renegade back on, the program refused to update my files saying they were invalid. Any ways, in the process of uninstalling Renegade all lost all my skins and maps.

I had:

Blue skins for SBHs
Brightly colored C4 (Timed was pink, as well as the remotes)
Green skin for Deadeye (found that)
Countdown C4 WAV (found that)

There was also a place for map packs....like 50 MB map packs...anyone know where I can get these files? I tried Google and searching this forum without success.

Thanks,
SuperTech

I don't agree with advantage skins personally, but the map packs I can help you with, there are a few packs here: http://www.cugsworld.net/cugsworld_files/Page931.html (IE Required).

I imagine it's quite helpful on dark MCTs. Then again, so are bright stealth skins.

Bright stealth skins don't make stealths magically appear from a greater distance, they just make people/tanks stand out from the background more than white with a tinge of blue does.

I really don't see what the point of banning colored C4 is, either.

I don't use those things myself, but also wouldn't ban anyone for using them. I can see how someoone might though, as they do give an advantage that players without them don't have. Next someone will argue that they aren't an advantage, yet they use them Smile

I have skinned HUD, alternate reticle, the M16 rifle skin and a Sydney PIC skin (green suit to blue and grey suit)

They improve the look of the game, and the ret helps me aim, but I don't go as far as to have glowing green deadeyes or pink C4.

I didn't know you guys were into animal skins. Can you help me find a bear skin rug, since you're obviously so knowledgable about skins, and not textures?

I have made a custom Renegade model texture for all of Nod, and all of GDI. I have never made them to my advantage. Ever. To me that is cheap, and it is an advantage. But I wouldn't ban them either, because people do have free will to do as they wish.

Question: Why should it be called a texture as opposed to a skin?

Texture in computer nerd terms, skin in normal peoples terms.

Why nerd definition: Because computer nerds usually have to get extremely technicle about what they are talking about...

Where as...

Why normal definition: Skin, because it is what provides the characters "look," and actually gives them skin in the game.

It's the other way around.

Computer "nerds" tend to use technical terms but computer nerds are both people that know a lot about computers and people that probably use their computer too much. I'd have to say normal people, as you put it, use normal terms. "Texture" is the normal term for a model's texture, whilst "skin" is a term coined by those who download/trade textures and texture artists who perhaps need a quick way of speaking to each other about textures.
In other words; the word is fake in its context, picked up like a fashion trend and used to death by people who choose not to use the correct terms then get all mad and hissy when "normal people" try to correct them.

I am more or less a computer junkie. Not a computer nerd. But I do see what you are saying.

Yeah, but Aircraftkiller wouldn't be any fun if he was "normal".... Big Ups

But yes, you both have a point....but for people like me who use the term "skin" I don't care it's not the correct one....most people -"normal" included- know what I mean. But I won't have a hissy fit because I'm wrong or because I was corrected in my word usage, because that is what makes me unique. (Also possibly see annoying....but I can live with that!)
