Customizing Multiplayer medals

Hello. Recently I've been wanting to create a few custom medals that could be used in multiplayer games, though I'm currently clueless on how to add them and if I can add them in a similar way to skins (so it takes effect on all servers I enter and only I see them)

They're hard-coded IIRC, so I don't know if this is doable.

Seems like I didn't word it right, My bad.
I meant to say if their appearances could be edited/changed, not if extra medals could be added.

I didn't mention extra medals, I probably need to word myself a bit better. In theory they could be customized, I guess if you had a sprite with the proper lumpname, it could work (in theory, I've never changed medals). I'm just saying I wouldn't know them since they're hard-coded.

Yeah you can just overwrite the medal graphic and sound lumps with your own of the same names.

I did figure it out eventually, and I was able to successfully change the medals as they appear on the HUD and the medals screen, but not in-game when they hover over someone that just acquired them.

Here's a pic showing the error.

Below is what the .WAD that I put in the skins folder contains thus far.
