I do know what you mean, I encountered this back in the day when people were playing Jedi Outcast/Jedi Academy multiplayer. If someone had a modded skin or a new model that others didn't download, they would just see as if the modded person used Kyle Katarn's model.

And like I said, this wouldn't happen here, because all the files are already supplied with the game, even if you can't select the skins yourself, because you didn't buy the Super-Extra-Special-Totally-Complete Edition Number 6.
