Choose a gun skin

Needs Testing

Change a gun's appearance and supported sounds or effects. The server must support gun skins, and you need the matching assets installed.

In the menus: ESC → Character → Current → WEAPON → GUN SKINS

Choose and equip a skin

  1. Select a gun from the gun list.
  2. Use the arrow keys to preview its skins.
  3. Press ENTER to equip the highlighted skin, or select its row with the mouse.

Drag the preview to turn or tilt it. It uses the weapon’s world model when available.

The equipped skin has a * marker. Stock restores the original appearance.

BACK returns to the saber screen. Any pending saber choices stay there until you apply or discard them.

Change a thermal detonator in play

Hold Use and scroll while the thermal detonator is selected. This shortcut only changes thermal skins. Use the panel for other guns.

Things to note

  • Skins are cosmetic. Choosing one does not give you the weapon or change its combat stats.
  • Choices stay with this installation. They save in weaponskins.cfg, rather than your character record.
  • The server can disable skins. The panel reports this and refuses new choices.

Prefer the console?

/sf_wskinpick <weapon> <skin|stock>

Use a weapon number or its WP_ name and the skin's registry ID. For the Umbaran Blaster Rifle:

/sf_wskinpick WP_BLASTER umbaran_r

To restore the stock blaster:

/sf_wskinpick WP_BLASTER stock

Successful picks print nothing. The panel and weapon show the change.
