Hmm... does this only work for maps, or does it work for skins too?

As far as I'm aware, it only works for maps. If you include a skin inside a map, it will download it...but that's an awful work around.

If it's anything like q3's server... you need to run it pure.. and basically, any .pk3's the server has that the user does not, will be downloaded to the client (assuming they have auto download on)....

I have used this for decals/skins/etc in q3.

That's the trick though. Most clients have autoDownload OFF by default. Ultimately, you can play on a server without the custom skins without any trouble. You'll just see anyone in a skin you don't have in a default skin instead.

When you first load JK2 Multiplayer, go to setup then to Game options, Its near the bottom as something like "allow downloading"
