Description
Gives each player a random custom skin. You can specify between 1 to 8 separate models per team. When the plugin is enabled, the player is given a random model every spawn. Disabling the plugin will revert player models back to the standard CSS models. The models used can be changed by updating ini files and doing a map change.
No plugin code modification required to change customs models used.
*.mdl file names are extracted from model ini files. No CVAR's used.
Comments, leading, and trailing white space allowed in ini files.

Installation
The two ini files below are configured for models from TechKnow's model site. See
http://techknowmodels.19.forumer.com/index.php Unless you have these 4 models on your server, you MUST modify these file for the plugin to function.
- Have model files in place on server
- If applicable, have bz2 copies in place on fast url server
- Configure both ini files to specify which models per team
- Have ini and smx files in correct location on server
- Load the plugin (i.e. sm plugins refresh)
- List models found with sm_skinapp list
- Change the map for new models to take effect
The plugin will wait for a map change if it is loaded in the middle of a round.
This ensures that clients download the files required to render the models.
Make sure you copy the files to you fastdownload web server and all filenames are correct.
If you see big red ERRORS
This means that the client can't find the model files specified.
Check for typo's. Make sure client is able download missing files.
Check your fast url server's logs.
The model files should end up under this folder on the client:
Code:
