Custom races in multiplayer. Is it possible?

[Recel]

Since i didnt saw, or maybe missed topics about this im going to ask.

Im planing to make a mod that has custom races for each facion, what i would like to know that is it possible to somehow enable players to create a multiplayer caracter for that mod with specific race, or even better for what i want, force the players caracter to use the specific race i implent for the factions played currently on the server?

impossible. Player profile's race overrides everything.

possible work around, change the armour they wear into a model of a different race

This is what i wanted to know. Thankyou.

I wouldnt like this idea since there are a lot of players that dont wear helmets or any armor at all.

Then make a "no armour" armour? It's really just a skin, after all. I believe there's a server option to disable nekkid as well, so it's very do-able. The only thing you lose is custom faces.

Im not sure about the dissable option your talking about, but ill look into it and try it out.

What we did in hunt was just have a trigger that overwrote whatever armour a player picked with the beast outfit. It worked ok but the main problem was that female characters still made female noises and such.

I see. But what i would like is that each faction has its own race and they can choose armore above that. Now that i know that the player profile over writes this ill look for ways to get around this, who knows, maybe ill find one. But atleast now i know that the profile is the main problem.

Are there any topics or something about how player profiles work in multiplayer?

Edit: Yoshiboy, you just gave me an idea
