== Packet Details ==

=== Size ===

The size of the packet varies from 8 to 488 bytes, depending on the value of [[#NumM|NumM]].

=== Type ===

The packet type from the [[InSim_enumerations#ISP|ISP_]] enumeration, always ISP_MAL.

=== ReqI ===

ReqI is equal to zero, unless the packet is a reply to a [[InSim_enumerations#TINY|TINY_MAL]].

=== NumM ===

The number of mods in this packet.

=== UCID ===

The unique ID of the connection that updated the list.

=== Flags ===

Currently zero and unused.

=== SkinID ===

The list of mod skinIDs in compressed format, i.e. 4 bytes A-B-C-0 where A, B, and C are the integer values of the corresponding hexadecimal characters of the skinID ''in reverse order''.

For instance, skinID DBF12E is encoded as 2E-F1-DB-00, or 46-241-219-0.

== Notes ==

The maximum number of mods that can be allowed is 120. To allow all mods again, send this packet with 0 mods.
