Is it possible to make .plr files instead of WAD files?

There are quite a bit of character Wads (especially knuckles recolors), so wouldn't it be easier to make character wads as plr files? I don't know much about plr files, but it might be better to do it that way so one does not have to upload WAD files everytime they open up SRB2.
 
It doesn't work that way. SRB2 is programmed to open the PLRs there, and only those. You COULD make them "PLR files", but that's pointless, really. PLRs are just wad files with a renamed extension. You'd have to reprogram SRB2 to load which ones you want. And, no, you can't edit the PLR files. At least, not without breaking SRB2.
 
I guess you're right... and now that I think about it, it could be used to bypass the SRB2 cheat detection system...although it could be a new feature in the next SRB2 release, with a way to detect characters that aren't normal characters.
