Uhm... I don't know a real solution for it.... I can only suggest some sort of workaround.
If you enable
DO NOT LINK[/b]) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/Manual/Graphic_options#Force_player_model]force player model option in all the stations, and play in team-based modes, everyone will see all players using the model of "Sarge" (actually, "Grism"), without any "mature" problem. When playing in non-team based modes, instead, everyone will see all players look like using the same model as his own
(I'm unsure why Id software made this feature work differently in team-based and non-team-based gametypes... maybe because in some character models red and blue team colors were not very clear).
But this would
not be a great fix, because:
- players could go to the player settings menu and there see how any model looks like. And if they select another one, it will be shown anyway during non-team-based games (with the risk to show every player as an almost naked prosperous female demon on that machine).
- players are able to disable the option, then pontentially seeing mature models (if someone selected them) also in team-based matches.
You could try it anyway, especially if you believe the risk is not related to the models selected by your friends (that you can ask to select non-mature models only), but to the models selected by external internet players. Unfortunately, from your posts I can understand that you don't plan to play on public servers, but only over the lan... and then, you feel the risk of players using mature models (or simply showing them in the player settings menu) is
local...
I suppose you may place an "autoexec.cfg" file on each seat, using it to enable forcemodel and/or select a model of
your choice everytime OpenArena is launched... players will still be able to change their model if they wish, but maybe they could be too lazy to do it
every time...
... but probably, in your case, you may simply remove (or rename, changing the extension) the pk3 that contains the mature models on all the machines... this should not give any problem when playing over your LAN.
IMHO, OpenArena would not need such mature models to be a great game (speaking personally, I'd prefer it without such fanservice... but I am not the art director...)PS: It exists this page, too: (

PPS: To make different configurations, one without and one with the mature skins (needed to play over the internet), I suppose you may work with custom "fs_homepath" values (take a look to
DO NOT LINK[/b]) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/FAQ#Configuration_files_and_automatic_downloaded_files_path]here and the following sections, especially
DO NOT LINK[/b]) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/FAQ#Can_I_change_the_directory_to_where_configuration_and_autodownloaded_files_are_saved.3F]this one): you may move the pk3 with the mature skins from your installation folder to your "homepath" folder, and then launch the game with the option to use a
different homepath folder, that will contain separate user settings and will not load the mature skins. You would launch the game normally when at home, and instead using a modified shortcut that specifies the different homepath when at the church. If you prefer, different user profiles in your OS may be used to achieve the same result (each user has got his own
default homepath folder).
Disabling DO NOT LINK[/b]) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/Manual/Automatic_downloading]automatic downloading on that profile should prevent from unintentionally download the mature pack again if someone tries to connect to an internet server (obviously, this means that they will not be able to enter "pure" internet servers).[/size]
