I used the DS2 in GC last night, and it appears to be imbedded in the map, could that be the reason it doesnt work in skirmish, cause its not set up to be in the actual map? Cause it doesnt appear to be a model, all you do is see the super laser shoot out thats it, it appears in the background? I dont know much about this stuff, but that what it looks like to me Scott
