Has anyone seen or heard of a model having two heads? My son claims that he has seen this a couple of times but I gather it is a bug when combining a certain headmodel with a certain body model. The two heads he saw was next to the player name in the score list. Anyone seen this? Anyone know how to get two heads in Q3? TIA!

If you have ever played with someone who has gone to the trouble of using a custom skin, you will have noticed that unless you already have that skin on file, then Q3 will default to a generic skin... normally Sarge I think. So theoretically, you could not have seen a skin that you did not already have.. Having said that, I know you can mix and match the heads and bodies of different skins - I know a player that uses Xaeros body, with Slash's head - and boy does it look freaky! You dont need different skins to see these mix-n-matchs because only the default skins are being used, its just in diff combinations.... So perhaps what your son saw was something like this? -- M Blessed are the geek, for they shall inherit the Earth.

I think it is a bug like when using Klesks' head on Uriels' body or was it the other way around?... Anyway, then you will get a rectangular image next to your player name in the score list. We have seen a similar oddity showing two heads next to the player name in the score list. Two heads with blurry eyes. It is most likely a bug, but we want to know which combination of body/head models we need to use to get this double head bug to show... :-) TIA!
