Auto Download Music mod

[Greek2me]

Wouldn't it just be better for Badspot to fix this issue where people crash if they don't DL music?

He fixed that already, I believe he fixed that in V20.

I don't think he fixed it, because, people still crash. 

[The Corporation]

You're right.

he's right

What are you talking about

What are you talking about

A server script can't change a client's settings.

This could be very helpful, but I believe that if this were to be released it would need to give more control to the player, rather than just auto-downloading the music.  A small menu could pop up saying something like "Would you like to download the server's music? (how much memory it takes)" Then upon pressing 'yes' it would automatically download the music.  Or upon pressing 'no' it would just close the menu and you could take your chances and hope not to crash.

I like this idea, but it should only ask if the player has the music disabled.

I agree sounds good, we just need someone to script this, and I know absolutely no torque.

I know no torque, but maybe lugnut or gravity can can script it :) Or just a scripter...

Wouldn't you want to have something to entertain you besides gameplay?

[RagnaTheBroedge]

Uh, no. When I'm playing a game I play for the goddamn gameplay. If I want music, I open WMP. I do not need to hear a bunch of idiots spamming their crappy music from a jeep, nor do I want to spend ten extra minutes downloading all 300 of their crappy songs.
