    Regarding this:
    "Would you make an option ot toggle on/off the custom heads clientside? It's a pain to play with guys that have a square or a yellow screaming cluster instead of a well painted head. It also kills me if I'm using custom sprites."

    Is it doable with this last KAG update?

    The script texture solution can work in a single script just fine. You also can AddScript from that script if you're worrying about admins doing it wrong, and it still would be as compatible as it is.
    That can't be done directly but I don't see why it couldn't be done manually (pixel by pixel). The client would send their head to the server and the server would distribute it back to the clients. This cannot be abused.
    It would make it obsolete because it would be simpler.
    Such an idea doesn't disable this possibility. The server can have a configuration file with a list of whitelisted head hashes (even stupid hashes) that would be verified and enabled manually. Moderators ingame could then have an interface to allow or deny the head. The server also could decide to have global policies on user heads, to disable verification/etc. Though I still believe that this isn't necessary. People that breaks those rules could be banned/have their head locked just like they can get banned or muted for spamming insults or that sort of stuff.

    The heads will only be stored in memory. It's not possible to modify them.
    Moderation is not necessary if there's a /disablehead <username> command.
    The implementation will require a ImageData to CBitStream method (w/ compression).

    we have a version in development. hopefully the community can come together to help with fuzzles idea for the new implementation. https://github.com/makmoud98/PlayerHeads
    for those of you still waiting on a new head, just be patient. once everything is working again, we will give instructions on how to submit your head

    Ok the mod should be updated in the API with the new implementation
    There are still a few minor bugs that I need to work out but it is working for the most part.
    All you have to do is rename your head file to head and put it in your Base/Maps folder. It must be a PNG file, other image formats are not supported. When you join a server with the mod on it, it will automatically send the head to all the players.
    [​IMG]
    If you don't have your head on your computer anymore, you can just download this zip and find your old one.

    yo dude, you dont need to upload files anywhere anymore just rename it to head.png and put it in your Base/Maps folder. all heads are stored on client and sent to the server upon joining.

    Yo makmoud98 i think you should update the overview page of this mod so that people would know more or less how to apply the mod now.
