The second of two skin packs for the War Machine model, converted and compiled by Simon 'Psychic_313' McVittie.
Each skin in this pack requires the corresponding Male Soldier skin. If you don't have the right Male Soldier skin, the default War Machine skin will appear instead.
Here are a few known download locations for these skins:
AoD (Soldierskins_ao.utx):
Fileplanet
| 3D Downloads
| Multiplayer.it
Dark Vortex (SoldierSkins_vortex.utx): author's site
| Multiplayer.it
| Fileplanet
Jester (SoldierSkins_Jester.utx):
Fileplanet
| Barrysworld (UK)
Prototype Mettallian (SoldierSkins_Meat.utx): Fileplanet
The Shadow 2 (SoldierSkins_TheShadow2.utx): Fileplanet
As with all custom models and skins, you can't use these unless the server administrator has set it up to allow them. This means they will not usually work on public UT servers.
If you are a server administrator, please note that the UMOD for this pack does not automatically add ServerPackages for these skins; you'll need to do that yourself if you want to use them.
The lines to add to the [Engine.GameEngine] section of UnrealTournament.ini are as follows - note that each skin requires 2 separate ServerPackages lines!
; --- these are always required to use the War Machine model --- ServerPackages=SoldierSkins ServerPackages=AdvancedModelSupport ServerPackages=PS2WarMachine ServerPackages=PS2WarMachineSkins ; --- additional lines for each custom skin --- ; --- AoD --- ServerPackages=Soldierskins_ao ServerPackages=PS2WarMachineSkins_P3ao ; --- Dark Vortex --- ServerPackages=Soldierskins_vortex ServerPackages=PS2WarMachineSkins_P3dv ; --- Jester --- ServerPackages=Soldierskins_Jester ServerPackages=PS2WarMachineSkins_P3je ; --- Prototype Mettallian --- ServerPackages=Soldierskins_Meat ServerPackages=PS2WarMachineSkins_P3me ; --- The Shadow 2 --- ServerPackages=Soldierskins_TheShadow2 ServerPackages=PS2WarMachineSkins_P3Sh
You can add some pairs of ServerPackages lines and leave others out if you want - you must always include SoldierSkins, AdvancedModelSupport, PS2WarMachine and PS2WarMachineSkins, though.
Linux users: the relevant file is $HOME/.loki/ut/System/UnrealTournament.ini, where $HOME is the home directory of the user the server will run as. If this file doesn't exist, copy the one from /usr/local/games/ut/System.
None of these skins were designed for this model, so any blurring and stretching is not the authors' fault. Prototype Mettallian's shoulders, and The Shadow's shoulders, arms and boots, were edited to remove mapping glitches; any problems there are Psychic_313's responsibility.
There are some screenshots and images in the UMOD file.

AOD CLAN SKIN by _unDuLe_
Created for my old clan chums on the event of my departure, this skin bears an AoD stamp on the chest and a small homeade DMM logo on the back. In all other regards, it is a 'clanless' skin, having all colored variations and five faces.
Since the creation of the skin, AoD has broken up and scattered itself about, so the skin is moot and thus up for public use. The artwork contained in the file is my original creation and thus remains my intellectual property and cannot be used for making profit etc, alteration of it discourages lest you email me first -- and besides comments are always welcome.

DESCRIPTION:
A dark and sinister appearance. .
At least that was what I was aiming for at that time :)
It has 4 heads and 2 of them have TeamColored versions, so
you can have a red head to match the red teamskin etc.
Or you can mix colors to annoy people :D
I tried animating the HUD face of one of the faces. It came out kinda crap IMHO :)
[Two faces, including the one with the animated talktexture, do not appear on this War Machine version, because they don't fit the model well]

Skin: Jester
Creator: Havoc{NCC} (Tim Bujnoch)
Email: shadowgate@satx.rr.com
Website: www.clan-ncc.com
Faces: just jester face
Teams: solo(none) and all 4 team colors
Notes: This is my second complete skin for UT. This was originally supposed
to be a Grim Reaper type skin, then some guy with bone armor, it ended up as a
"Court Jester" type skeleton skin. I am pretty happy with it. I don't care
much for the team color versions, but my options are rather limitted since I
can only use 2 of the four textures for each team.
Other Skins Made: Zombie

Total time to complete: I don't know
This skin was produced for the competition at www.utmachine.hispeed.com [UTMachine has moved and is now at http://www.planetunreal.com/utmachine]. I like the way it came out, although it is on the dark side. I am still learning to skin, so this was just another step in learning how to skin well.
