custom skin issue

[jruland]

hi guys, i recently loaded a skin into my map for the spellbreaker model, however i didn't like it so i deleted it from the imported files in my map. however, when i reload the map the skin is still there and i cannot get the original spellbreaker icon back. can someone tell me how to fix this?

yes but thats an editor bug, when u test the game ull c it isnt there (and ofcourse also select the right icon)

aight, thanks for such a timely response.

Thus steps into the realm of theory...

If the "bug" holds true when the map is loaded in a different editor. Once could in theory protect icons/skins by having a pure black model loaded, deleted, and switched for the one wanting to be used?

If that works, then maybe people wouldn't be overly afraid of shipping unprotected maps around, as something like that would make the average joe looking to steal the map think it was bugged.

No, it only stays until you close the editor. Close and open it again, and the skin will be gone.
