Widening the cvar would be a good idea, valid setup for 0,1,2,3,4 for forcing different setting what is said here or then creating new cvars for each class: models (already is), graphics and sounds. 3 basic class which could be forced and if user has one of them, giving a _proper_ message. Not just server is forcing consistency for blablalba. This really doesnt tell the player what really is wrong. I really think that wallhacks and other cheats are bigger problem than the changing game materials and sounds.
Besides, using admin skins is not a problem on the server even if consistency would be on. They are downloaded to players machine on a separate folder and can be called upon use by the server itself only. User cannot get any problems by connecting other servers with the custom models which he has downloaded from the server to his comp. He only can get troubles with the models he himself installed to replace already existing model (same path in the GCF, like /models/player/t_phoenix.mdl) so in other words, if custom skins are used by the server and not the user itself, this isnt a problem. However, calling the server admins as kids who use these features you described is a problem. -ics "the kid" -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] On 11/23/06, Whisper <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I Agree with you to some extent about this. But the truth is that there are alot of kids who like all the bells and whistles they can use. Admin skins and other nonsense. The admins that want to run a "pure" server know how to do it so I wouldn't mind if the sv_consistency would be as 0 as it has been before. I'd just be happy if it would actually check the files. Right now I play only on my own servers and in matches I think every league would support this and require it to be set to 1 on all matches. The sad thing is that you're right. If something can be exploited, in CS community it will be exploited and not by few but a majority of players. -- Tirppa -- _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
