Yay, I just found the model again! I just lost the texture. Oh well, that's easily replaceable. Should I submit it after I redo it?
[QUOTE=Daimao;20830133]Yay, I just found the model again! I just lost the texture. Oh well, that's easily replaceable. Should I submit it after I redo it?[/QUOTE] No point now really since this welding mask is already in the game and Valve wouldn't pull such a massive dick move on the creator of the original one. Even if yours is superior.
[QUOTE=Daimao;20830133]Yay, I just found the model again! I just lost the texture. Oh well, that's easily replaceable. Should I submit it after I redo it?[/QUOTE] Yeah, You should submit all of your work. IMO.
[QUOTE=ShiftySwifty;20830142]No point now really since this welding mask is already in the game and Valve wouldn't pull such a massive dick move on the creator of the original one. Even if yours is superior.[/QUOTE] I'm afraid this seems to be right.
[QUOTE=Daimao;20830133]Yay, I just found the model again! I just lost the texture. Oh well, that's easily replaceable. Should I submit it after I redo it?[/QUOTE] Too late now. The best thing you could do would be making it a replacement.
Please do fix the texture and put it on here as a replacement model for the current welding mask.
You should submit it anyway. Who's to say Valve won't include two different welding masks in the game? Your new one oozes quality. Besides, hats have no bearing on actual gameplay; it does not hurt Valve to stuff the game full of hats, even if a couple of them are somewhat the same thing. Think of it this way: It won't hurt to submit it anyway.

[QUOTE=Daimao;20830133]Yay, I just found the model again! I just lost the texture. Oh well, that's easily replaceable. Should I submit it after I redo it?[/QUOTE] Definitely. Even if it doesn't get accepted, you can still replace the shitty welding mask currently in-game.
It's a crying shame, that mask will never be seen in-game... If you're still in a submitting mood Daimao, you should submit the rest of your stuff. Or even just one of each class. There's loads of good stuff in the old mod emporium threads which we would all love to see in-game. I bet Valve could make an entire update about you, you've got so much stuff.
[QUOTE=PSI Guy;20830549]I bet Valve could make an entire update about you, you've got so much stuff.[/QUOTE] Hell, they WERE going to until the deal just kind of disappeared. And that was back when community items being in-game was still kind of a new idea.
ATTN: Valve doesnt want to get shown up by Daimao imo, they want to look good by putting a low res shitty one.
No, no, that's not it. Valve has always appreciated the quality of community mods. For example, the fire chief's hat, the Bonk! helm, and the welding mask were all in Daimao's emporium before Valve released them, and Robin acknowledged that. It's just that Daimao never submitted his work.
I'm not sure that they'll put it in after they selected the other one, but please, /please/ make a mod for it to replace the current one. I'd use the hell out of it.
[QUOTE=SeneorGoat;20830692]ATTN: Valve doesnt want to get shown up by Daimao imo, they want to look good by putting a low res shitty one.[/QUOTE] Daimao already specified that he never submitted any of his work to Valve and Robin already said in an e-mail that he'd love to have Daimao's work submitted.
[QUOTE=Shugo;20830747]Daimao already specified that he never submitted any of his work to Valve and Robin already said in an e-mail that he'd love to have Daimao's work submitted.[/QUOTE] Didnt mean solely daimaos i know he didnt submit it, but why have the limit so low all there hats are way over the limit we had and 256x256 isnt enough for some
He should've submitted all his shit in the first place.
Oh fuck yes. "THE DAIMAO UPDATE" Sounds cool. :cool:
[QUOTE=SeneorGoat;20831393]Didnt mean solely daimaos i know he didnt submit it, but why have the limit so low all there hats are way over the limit we had and 256x256 isnt enough for some[/QUOTE] Didn't the Magistrate's Mullet have a 512x512 texture and ~2000-ish polies?
[QUOTE=Kowalski;20832585]Oh fuck yes. "THE DAIMAO UPDATE" Sounds cool. :cool:[/QUOTE] Awwwwrite :c00lbert:
Shit Daimao. Your hats are 2000 times better than those pieces of fuck valve released. Valve was aware of your bloody hats, why not release that instead of that shit? They sent you emails, didnt they?
Why does everyone always hate everything that isn't made by Daimao? I don't get it. Those community made hats don't look bad to me.
[quote=death dragon;20833129]why does everyone always hate everything that isn't made by daimao? I don't get it. Those community made hats don't look bad to me.[/quote] your opinion does not count.
[QUOTE=Death Dragon;20833129]Why does everyone always hate everything that isn't made by Daimao? I don't get it. Those community made hats don't look bad to me.[/QUOTE] Check the tf2 mod emporium and you'll see that people love other stuff.

[img]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/2372797/Welding%20Collage.png[/img][/QUOTE] To be perfectly honest Daimao, I did not like your old welding mask :v: The shape and texture was to me, too out of place. This Welding mask of yours however, is AWESOME and a lot better than the current ingame one. You got the textures just right the color amazingly fitting, and the model very fitting as well. I will say that I wish that it like the ingame welding mask however, should have the Visor up so you can see the Engineer's face. Not being able to see his face is just somewhat makes his character less interesting, a feature that would not be that neat ingame.
[QUOTE=Daimao;20832649]Didn't the Magistrate's Mullet have a 512x512 texture and ~2000-ish polies?[/QUOTE] 1760 polys according to hlmv, and there was something with that that duplicated the amount of polies, so it's actually 880. But they have no backfacing ie. when you drop it the part that is hidden by his head is invisible.
Alternate models for hats... :v:
his work is 10x better than those in the Valve Offices. they should offer him a job.
[QUOTE=Jamsponge;20833562]Alternate models for hats... :v:[/QUOTE] Yes, if this doesn't already officially get replaced with Daimao's new welding mask, I would highly wish him to make it a replacement for the current community one. (preferably with the same animations as the new mask) Then again I don't want to be another demanding nobody that can't do nothing by himself but still want everyone else to do things for him, so I'm going to leave that decision up to Daimao :3:
