With literaly thousands of skins out there, some stand out of the crowd. What skins do you use? I use the Negotiator, which actually makes the Ambassador look good: [url]http://www.fpsbanana.com/skins/66949[/url] Sword of a thousand rage quitters, created by our fellow Facepuncher and Tf2 Emporium creator, Mister Royzo. It can be found here: [url]http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=905074[/url] Improved flamethrower. Well... its improved. [url]http://www.fpsbanana.com/skins/30659[/url] The real KGB. Exactly how valve should have made it, these gloves are are designed to inflict more damage, rather that inflicting less. [url]http://www.fpsbanana.com/skins/67826[/url] The American Dream. Its a colt 1911 replacement for the pistol. Do I need to say anything more? : D [url]http://www.fpsbanana.com/skins/88463[/url] Ak-47 replacement for SMG. Yep, fantastic. [url]http://www.fpsbanana.com/skins/88227[/url] Skullbuster, a sniper rifle replacement. No words to describe it, you have to see it to realize how incredible this skin is. [url]http://www.fpsbanana.com/skins/68500[/url] And thats pretty much the skins I use. So what are yours?
Look at the thread, basically above you. It's called 'How modified is your TF2 client'. Sorry to burst your bubble mate.

Ayesdef's female scout Uzi sniper smg Sentry pistol 4 slot grenade launcher Stylish Spy + viewmodels
stylish spy is my fav skin but viewmodel is a bit broken
Custom models are retarded for me. Some times they work, some times they don't, some times it's just the wire frame.
[QUOTE=Xelatomis;21671168]Custom models are retarded for me. Some times they work, some times they don't, some times it's just the wire frame.[/QUOTE] sv_pure's a bitch. I wish Valve would just let it use the original game files when the custom versions aren't allowed.
[QUOTE=Mister Royzo;21671640]sv_pure's a bitch. I wish Valve would just let it use the original game files when the custom versions aren't allowed.[/QUOTE] Would probably be a hassle to code. Knowing valve, they would if they easily could. If such a feature is installed, I am going on a fpsb downloading spree. Only reason I dont mod is the sv_pure 1 and 2 servers.
I only use skins i make. Even though they aren't necessarily always good. And i only relased two of them, and i only use one of those two, this Hitman Ambassador: [URL]http://www.fpsbanana.com/skins/72233[/URL] [editline]01:09PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Mister Royzo;21671640]sv_pure's a bitch.

When you get only reskins it defaults to the default texture, but you should know that.
I use to have a lot of custom stuff, and then I went towards trying to optimize the game instead. Back when it came out and the cache size was 2 or so GB, it ran fine. Now that it's up to 4.83GB, I struggle to keep anything decent on horridly low settings. :v:
[QUOTE=Mister Royzo;21671640]sv_pure's a bitch. I wish Valve would just let it use the original game files when the custom versions aren't allowed.[/QUOTE] This. It can't be [i]that[/i] hard to make it so that files from the original GCF replace custom models. Skins do it. Sounds occasionally do it. Models either go fucked up, wireframed, or invisible. Or all three.

Spy disguise mod, Silver Dead Ringer, Jarate-Kukri, HUD/Teleporter/Uber fixes, Fixed Tyrant's Helm, and a thing that plays the "Heut ist mein Tag" techno song when you activate an Ubercharge.

I've re-skined just about every weapon in the game, some were skins I made for myself. I use ayesdeaf's Femscout on occasion. (Although I haven't since the medals were added because it looks horrible having the medal float in mid air behind her) I would use Ayes' stylish spy too, but too many servers allow the world model but block the viewmodel, making it look off. I also use a bunch of Gibus mods like the chicken butt for Pyro. (I love the gibus for giving the unlucky a hat, but it can be a little annoying to see it so often.) The only class I keep the normal gibus on is heavy. It looks great on him.

[img]http://secretoptionf.files.wordpress.com/2009/10/gentle.jpg[/img] Mainly this.
I would use that, but sv_pure, ugh.
[QUOTE=Luxy;21674301]I would use that, but sv_pure, ugh.[/QUOTE] I deal with it. All it requires is me to restart TF2. when I join 2 different purity servers. And I usually only play on one at a time.
I use Shugo's OCD fixes and my own OCD fixes. And ofcourse any mods I'm currently working on for the Contribute site for either the Gibus or a class weapon.
I use a black heavy
I have no skins.
Every single aspect of my tf2 used to be skins. Every weapon, character, even map props. But then tf2 kept crashing every time I connected to a server, so I deleted my tf folder and started over. Now I just have main weapon fixes, like the 4 slot grenade launcher and a custom HUD. And all the OCD fixes from the wonderful mod emporium.
None, I prefer it the way Valve intended it.
[QUOTE=wootmonster;21677625]None, I prefer it the way Valve intended it.[/QUOTE] Including the one-handed sticky launcher, 6-slot grenade launcher, etc? Why is it 6-Slot? VALVe never fixed the model since the Demoman Nerf Why is it one handed? At the very default FOV, it APPEARS to be normal, when you would think a second hand would be there, looking at the world model. [editline]06:01PM[/editline] Improved flamethrower? I lol'd. I don't see how it's improved. Looks more like a dis-improvement.
[QUOTE=Zar;21670978]stylish spy is my fav skin but viewmodel is a bit broken[/QUOTE] Yeah that's why I hate. Sometimes I play on servers where I can't see my hands.
I dont use any skins.:smug:
yes lets use the smug emote even though 15 other people said the same thing.
[QUOTE=Combine 177;21678606]I dont use any skins.:smug:[/QUOTE] Why you have to be smug about this I can't work out. Damn ninja'd.
From previous thread: [list][*]Stylish Spy (with view models & HUD) [*]Some misc sound replacements [*]Hounddog & Ushanka combination [*]Shugo's icons mod[/list] I've also been meaning to install a few graphical fixed (4-slot launcher, invuln fixes, etc.) along with the soldier cape and AyesDyef's scout. [QUOTE=Seibitsu;21678258]Yeah that's why I hate. Sometimes I play on servers where I can't see my hands.[/QUOTE] That's very annoying, but sometimes it's even worse: [img]http://thefwcentral.com/upload/content/images/tf2_glitchedSpy64458c3.jpg[/img] See those lines going off to the right in the view model? Ironically, sv_pure caused some vertices to stretch towards nearby players. That's right, a setting made to stop cheating created a wallhack.
