[Mod] Different textures for players [player_textures]

[rommiekerova]

I suggest using skins mod instead of this one. That one is up-to-date for 0.4.8 -> now at least.

This mod works for 4.8 and should work for anything higher so long as the character model and mapping stays constant.

If either of those changes, I'm sure PilzAdam will create a new version which works for it.

Eh.. your mod has no GUI ;p

It doesn't need one. Its not the skins mod. This one adds custom textures for each player. Not a database of them.

Could this be rewritten as a chat command (perhaps "/personal_texture") that applies the skin later?
I'm trying to allow specific skins for certain players while incorporating Zeg9's database.

I have patched the code to accept new format of mc skins!

This mod works a treat!


It's just a pity Minetest does not support MC version 1.8+ skins :\

Could anyone direct me to some image files I could try out for this mod? The example
player_PilzAdam.png
doesn't correctly display for me. I've also tried taking a copy of
minetest\games\minetest_game\mods\default\models\character.png
changing it slightly & suitably renaming. That doesn't work either.

I'm using minetest 0.4.14. Is the image file that version uses still compatible with this mod?

In fact, the server is giving an error:
ERROR[Main]: generateImage(): Could not load image "player_personX.png" while building texture.

[rgh]

Problem solved: server needed a restart
