Future of skins in DDNet client

Post by deen »

There are a lot of unused skins in DDNet client. Also, I don't like the skins with a name on them, that only 1 person can use. Too many skins means the client starts slower, takes more memory, and some people can't even run it at all because their computer is too weak. Therefore I would like to remove these custom skins (mostly Bandana Brothers). Instead hi_leute_gll is working on a simple skin pack solution, so you can install a pack of new skins with just 1 click. What are your opinions?

If they stay we can add nomore skins in general, cause it's to much for the client and weak computers.

But with a skin-pack it would be still easy to add them. ;)
