I really just wanted to mess about with particles, but I ended up making this. if you liked it, and are a redditor, [URL="http://www.reddit.com/r/tf2/comments/12w2h9/bad_medicine_saxxy_entry_drama/"]I would quite appreciate an upvote[/URL]
If your'e interested in checking out how this was made or reverse engineering the dmx, you can download it [URL="https://dl.dropbox.com/u/72478892/New%20folder/bad_medicine_files.zip"]here [/URL] packaged with all the custom assets I used. be warned it's not for the faint of heart, and you'll need to have L4d2 AND dota2 extracted to your sfm if you want to see everything correctly, though most of it should be okay. It was all built on Black_void, so theres a LOT of trickery.
Amazing work as usual.
Are you going to release the DMX files for this short like you did with previous releases?
yeah the download is in the description on youtube but I'll add it here as well
Absolutely beautiful man. Well done.
These kind of videos show the true power and capabilities of the SFM; particularly with story telling.
Crazy awesome as always, Zach!
With that title I was expecting Bon Jovi.
you stole my chance at a Saxxy, zach.... :P well done mate.
Had me in tears..
Awesome, absolutely beautiful.
fucking aweosme.
That lighting...
R.I.P Archimedes....
Not to nitpick or anything because just about everything in this was beautifully done but couldn't you have used the Huntsman broken arrow instead of having the masked Medic pulling it out? That is, only if there is a model of the broken arrow. I haven't been in the TF2 loop recently and can't remember.

There is a broken arrow model.
You should also add a skin to add some sort of scar or bloody mess where the arrow goes through.. shouldn't be hard.

You are a good!
Your videos have the best lighting I've ever seen.
I'm so sick of harsh white lights in SFMs.
This year's Saxxys are gonna blow last year's out of the water. Incredible work, man.
Very nice tranquil Scenes.

Have the alternate unused version of this short, straight from the same channel.

I like how it says in big capitol letters "DO NOT DISTRIBUTE" yet you post it here
Wish I could get the DMX to work, but all I get is 3 frames of the medic holding "Error Success" and then the pink and black textures of death.

He made it public. I think "DO NOT DISTRIBUTE" was related to back when he was making it, rather than posting in on FP.
I'd still rather folks not post it though. I prefer to keep the final one as the "real" one while having the alternate available for those who are interested, but not publicly advertising it.

With all due respect, if that's the stance you're going to take, you should not have made the alternate video public.
You sicken me, Zachariah. Your videos are too good, you are giving the competition no chance at all to a Saxxy.
I'm obviously kidding with the hate, if I had this opinion I wouldn't have spoken for you on Kotaku like a tool. Excellent stuff, you got my vote.
You did a wonderful job Zacharian, the message is in both videos easily transferred to the viewer who is familiar with the TF2-universe.
That brings me to my next point: I had some people over whom I displayed the video to. They did not know anything about TF2. In all honesty they all said that they didn't understand the video, but the music kept them going. Still quite funny since most of the characters in TF2 are an easy giveaway, since they're all pretty much stereotypical characters. It kinda made me wonder.
About the whole "public" video thing: The owner of the video who published it clearly stated that he rather did not have people redistribute it. Doing so is disrespecting his wishes. Whether that is right or wrong I leave up to you. Just reconsider posting these kind of things in the future with that in mind.
You are always so consistently... perfect.
You have work in the industry, BioWare, right?
They don't know how lucky they are.
Well, we have a winner.
