This shit is awesome. I went as far as to modify the items.ctx and tf_english.txt files to make it look more like its own weapon.

Notice how it's an "Invisibility PDA" while the other watches are still "Invisibility Watch"es.
Also, don't mind the cut-off text and "DEFAULT LEVEL: 5" stuff. The text is due to Valve not optimizing the font for 16:10 resolutions and the default level lines are for my personal reference so I don't make accidental deletions (I like to keep at least one copy of every weapon's original level). If you want to add that yourself for those who know how, just put "\n(Default Level: #)" at the end of all the item names and change "#" to be each item's proper level. You can find all the original levels in items.ctx.
Anyway, thanks a bunch for this model. It may not really fit with the TF2 universe, but it sure is pretty. Any chance you'll be making a backpack icon for the colorized cloak meter?
Cloaking

I use this. I don't really use many custom models/skins but this got my DL. Good work!
What is the image file for the cloak meter?
Thanks, you made me want to get better with the Dead Ringer :D
Aren't we in the 60's?

How you do dis

Edit tf_english
Sex.
[QUOTE=OutOfExile;16193012]Edit tf_english[/QUOTE]
Actually, if you want them to coexist, then you need to edit the items.ctx file and then add your own entirely new text string in tf_english.txt. Otherwise, if you just go into tf_english and change "Invisibility Watch" to "Invisibility PDA", then the actual Invisibility Watch will now be an Invisibility PDA.
that awesome

As someone said on FPSBanana, could you do the coloured cloak meter it for the other watches as well?

I said that too, on the first page.
[I]Awesome.[/i] :aaa:
[QUOTE=Omolong;16202440]As someone said on FPSBanana, could you do the coloured cloak meter it for the other watches as well?[/QUOTE]
No, I think it's right now impossible, because the other watches don't seem to use a texture for their meter like the DR does. Also, I couldn't find the responsible file for it.
I'm wondering if after the classes are all updated, this will be what we will recieve next (to fill space between the classes being updated again, as Valve seem eager to do). With hats and cosmetic unlocks, weapon reskins such as these.
Just a thought.

Personally, I've always loved the thought of individual weapon skins. It would be a really cool addition and would give us something to do with all those tons and tons of duplicate items that pile up. Valve could also add new ones at a much faster pace than the big class update packs since they're purely cosmetic and require no balancing to add (other than keeping the need-to-notice team-coloring noticable).

By the way, I finally realized what your colored cloak meter has been making me think about this whole time: Google Chrome's logo. :v:

Cool.
You can release it if you want, but give credit and a link to the original download.
That's pretty clever, I smirked at the title but the model looks great as well.
Also, I take suggestions for further projects
iRinger looks really cool, it's made me use the DR a lot more.
Thanks to you I started using the dead ringer over cloak and dagger :D I love it.

PSP for the engineer! There are PSP vmt and vtf files on the Gmod site for a UMD shooter, but I doubt they are free to reuse.
Also I tried, but failed.
The colored cloak meter reminds me of Google Chrome.
Does the middle of the page remind you of Google Chrome?
