dont worry that's why we have forums, to banter things about.

It needs to be done one of 2 ways,
1) all scripts are based on server and that talks with clients, etc.
2) Scripts are on clients machine

1 is preferable as we dont really want clients to be able to change anything, and it means that they have to download it which is not really a problem for most people but why not just turn it off and do setu in console so that it looks as though you are not forcing when you are. This is also applicable to things like picmp, etc. where in matches you are only allowed to change certain things.

I see it happening like this
1) Server runs script file and sets a local cvar on local machine : setu forcemodel = cg_forcemodel
2) a server admin/ dumpuser program which I know someone working on to check clientinto or dumpuser and check for skins and forcemodels and all the other settings that you want to check for.

I will look at executing a script on the server to set a client cvar, I'm not sure if this can be done at all.

Hope this helps, seems like no-one else wants to have any input.
