Player skin "Loading..."

[andeim]

I've a problem with my dev instance with loading skins. I'm using redemrp_skin (clone from github) When my database is empty (no character created) the game is loading, the skin UI is popping and i can customize my hero. The problem appears when i deco/reco. Redm find my character, load the json's skin but nothin occure for the client. The console print "Loading..." The `while test == false ̀ loop never ending in cl_main ...

Did you ever remedy this? I appear to be having similar issues.

That problem you get if you make changes on your characters skin with a different plugin, for example the Barber. Your skin becomes corrupted and it fails to fetch it, leaving you in a infinite loading screen. I fixed this in a server I am developing for to create a counter in the loop, and once it reaches 30, it deletes the characters skins of this player and gives him a message to relog. Once he relogs he/she will, after loading, be booted into the character skin creator

Just replace the following event.
