This may not be very helpful..
I'm not sure but perhaps you've got to make it throught the SinglePlayer campain until you can acces all characters.

Perhaps you've made a custom skin for a locked character which you have to unlock first.

I think these skins only "extend" already existing players. If the are locked, nothing else related to it will work...its just a thought.

Probably there is a cheat or cheat file (cheat savegame/profile)to unlock all characters, you may try this first.

After UT2004 started you should open the log file by typing "show log" or "showlog" in the console and search for errors related to the skin. (bla couldn't be loaded... or something like that.)

Also check the upl (I think it was upl..) file located in your system folder. It is named like the skin you've created. For example /UT2004/System/HonkyTonk.upl
Without this upl file the skin will not work.

The reason why your getting the ? is because of one of two possible reasons, when UPaint is writing the .upl, it isnt writing in the Picture texture reference, or its not making the picture at all.

Frog, not true. Look at Axon, that is a skin that uses the Xan model. You can make any skin for any model and it will work as long as that its line in its .upl says so. The reason why ClanLord, Xan, and Malcolm are locked is because of one word in each skin's line in the .upl. If you know what that word is, you can go into the .upla nd unlock it yourself. The normal way is that once you beat the game, the game automatically remove that word from the .upl

i was able to get my character to the game but it wouldn't have a texture ... it just ran around naked (all white) and I added a line for it in the xplayers list but ... i couldn't get it figured out so i got discouraged and ran away.

i had major problems with it when i tried it.

but i should try it again since later UT patches are out, maybe they fixed my prob (i tried it on a early version).

Outlaw, Does this section have the patch for Upaint? because i think i have it and it would be a good idea to upload it if you want it available to people here ...

If i were you i would just wait untill you can download the patch, then try to export your character. if it exports but doesn't look right, check/put a line for the character in your xplayers pad for it

the line you put in the xplayers file is exactly like the others.

so i would just copy and paste a line, then replace the parts that don't apply with your character with the ones that do.

Try this in the .upl:

[Public]
Player=(DefaultName="Greengore",Mesh=Jugg.JuggMaleA,species=xGame.SPECIES_Jugg,BodySkin=Greengore.Green goreBody,FaceSkin=Greengore.Green goreHead,Portrait=Greengore.GreengorePortrait,Text=,Sex=Male,Menu="")



What might be the main problem happening is this part of the line "Mesh=Jugg.Green gore". Its telling it to look for a mesh in the Jugg.ukx animations file. if it cant find it, its not going to work. Also you had the line in a different order from what it needs to be.
