as said in a different thread, why not, as many of them are very well made and best of all they are DONE, it would dramaticly decrease the time between versions and we all would love that so please could a team member shead light on this as I would soo be happy if you did as that should make v1.1 come faster (unless all the models are done.....)

Here is what I said on that other Thread:

Well heres my idea...
Like half-life DM, I beleive you should be able to create your
own folder for a new player model People who do not have the
folder. Will look at the standard player.mdl which is goku.

Like in Half-Life DM. If you insert a custom model with a new folder
people will only see gordon unless someone else has created the
a folder with the same name you used.

And as for other attacks, ESF Team should have like a Customize
program so that character can have multiple attacks. But there
should be a limit, Kinda like Action Half-Life Armory. For those of you
who play AHL you should know what it means.

Ok so heres what I mean...
Action Half-Life Armor is a program that allows you to choose a
whole mess of custom weapons/player models and then save it
without having to redownload or manually replace models. It does
it for you out side of HL.

But what im trying to say is.
Allow players to create their own folders for that player model
example: c: \sierra\half-life\tien\tien.mdl And if nobody has the
folder with the same name and model they will just see the standard
player model for ESF which is Gokou. located in the models folder
as player.mdl now the Weapon customization im talking about allows
you to give your custom models by points. for example in this
program you only got 10 points. Kikoho costs 4 points. so your
left with 6 more points to choose more new abilities for your
custom character then save it.

Yeah.
If say for example you have a Tien folder with a Tien.mdl
And so do I. We will both see tien. But if you create a Tien
folder. and the model really isn't Tien, it will still be shown as
Tien to us because of the folder name. And if his Tien Folder
containts a say.. adult gohan model renamed into tien.mdl
he will see us as Adult Gohans

But if someone does not have a tien folder or a tien.mdl they
will just see Gokou

Basically you can name the folders what ever you want
you could name them

HerculeSucks but you will have to rename the model to
herculesucks.mdl and place it in that folder. And people wont
see your model unless they have the folder with the same name
and the same model. But if they have a diffrent model named
herculesucks.mdl they will see you as the model they chose...
Didn't I just say this on my previous message? bah

Always gotta be specific

But this topic isn't about custom-made characters (which I like the idea of, btw). He wants to know why the team are unwilling to use models out there to save themselves time.

heres the problem with it.. if you add custom attacks, you will not be able to join a server because the other side would not have these attacks, you can add custom models like you say, but attacks? pretty much impossible

You dont get the picture
If there would be something made like the AHL Armory.
The Attacks will be a part of ESF itself only in the program you
can give it to a specific character. AHL Armory is a sepurate program
with a **** load of custom models/sprites/sounds that allows you
to replace current models but ESF team can make it so you can
just give it to a specific player model.

EDIT:

It wont be impossible. Just look at Desert Crisis.
It practically has a built in facial customization for your player
model. And a **** load of guns

sigh.. it would still take alot of time and coding, i dont think they'll focus on this, you want new characters like tien and brolli?, i think they will spend more time adding things like that and other more entertaining stuff, like taunts!, now thats more like it!

It's just occured to me - the trouble is that they introduce new animations with new attacks, which makes current models obsolete. Look at the outline and you'll see that they're waiting for new anims for Vegeta's energy Dan. No doubt as time goes on they'll introduce more anims as extra gameplay parts get bolted on.
