suggestion: being able to mark a wad/pk3 "optional" when setting up a server

[Marcaek]

Throwing in my support for this, it's a great idea. Anyone who has played a multiplayer game of Unreal knows how annoying mandatory skins and addons are.

Somebody needs to put up a suggestion in the tracker for this. The OP is naturally the first choice for this. If you do put this in the tracker, please say so here so we can go support it.

HOLY SHIT I TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT THIS THREAD. D:

Alright. Should I suggest it in the Doomseeker section or Zandronum itself?

Still behind this

Well like on zm09 I compressed it to extreme (good for me and others, some people dislike) but it fits in 3mb, but I let on my signature a download link for the original music pack with a nice quality (18mb vs 3mb), you only need to put it on skins folder.

I think that option shouldn´t affect zandronum but maybe yes the servers, with an option to download optional wads into the skin folder (but it would be nice a way to control to not mix things, ex: load jump maze server, you load the optional pack inside skins folders but not the other ones (maybe create a folder that would contain the optional pack...)

Or just put a download link on the description of the server for optional packs

Oh the lava bug, it was so hard to discover wtf was going on, actualy my map was so weird on zandronum 1.0 (clientside problems, no reset, lava bug, ...)

I hope on my next map I could find more bugs (and exploit more cool tricks [like the fake 3D reflective floor, change textures on clientside,... :D)

This is definitely needed.. Whenever I have a music wad I never host it because I hate downloading them -especially huge ones- so why force mine on people -even if its insanely better than midi-

Seconding this. I don't have time nor need for 50 diffrent skinpacks when I just want to play a server which will be up for just one day, and after that it will disappear without trace, totally unlike the 5GB of skins I just downloaded.
