What i'd really appreciate is get a setting letting you choose if you want to download current skin of your opponents once racing against them on a server. It's already nice being able to replace ugly bikes by stock ones; but it would be great to see actual opponent as he is without downloading the 2000 topics of the forum!
This has been suggested alot over the years. This would be a nice feature however...
This means it would also download private skins/models people have and don't want to share...
And imagine how big your personal folder will get if it downloads every skin someone uses online ...
isn't it possible to lock skins if you don't want to share them? just to be able to visualise it without using it if this is really the issue?
the issue about size? i would say it is up to everyone; if you have memory why not using it? if not either don't active the option or buy additionnal hard drive
The idea of PtP sharing of a skin is an interesting one, even if the shared skin is compressed down to 512 or 256 before being sent. I wonder what the logistics would look like for a group of people racing with fast enough connections. Couldn't imagine it would increase load times substantially, if it could be implemented.
