Mayby this can help: \cg_deferPlayers "1"

    the loading of player models will not take place until the next map, or when you die, or toggle the scoreboard (tab) this prevents the "hitch" effect when a player using a new model or skin joins the game after you. if you join the game after them the models and skins will download as you join?

=> From http://q3console.planetquake.gamespy.com/variables.htm:

Cheers /L Happy
