How do I add a custom ball to our DB server?! I put all the files in and enabled it, but the ball doesn't show up. It's in the game invisible.

Here you go, this mutator allows you to replace the standard ball for both Deathball and Bombing Run with any static mesh.

Taken from a post by Wormbo in a thread at the Ina forums, here are some meshes to try...
E_Pickup.TrippleDamage (similar to the double damage mesh)
E_Pickup.BombRing (the rings around the bomb ball, but no ball)
WeaponStaticMesh.FlakShell
WeaponStaticMesh.LinkAmmoPickup
WeaponStaticMesh.RedeemerMissile
XEffects.GibBotHead
XGame_rc.BallMesh (the bomb ball without the yellow rings around it)
XGame_rc.DomAMesh
XGame_rc.DomBMesh
XPickup_rc.AdrenalinePack
Citadel_Static.BalloonBall (a shiny metal sphere)
Citadel_Static.citadelballoon (the spike ball from the screenshot in the first post)
Citadel_Static.citadelballonb (a shiny version of the spike ball)
Citadel_Static.CitadelCactus (a cactus)
AbaddonHardware.ABCAtowertopdecos02
AbaddonHardware.RoxDoA (a black rock)
AboreaHardware.ArenaPlatform01
AboreaHardware.goopGatherer01
BarrenHardware.MiscRock01BA
BarrenHardware-epic.rec-snake-disk

Simply 'configure' the morphball mutator while setting up your practice/server and insert the mesh name

Thanks. That worked. I guess I have to put what mesh I want into the Morphball.u file.
