Female Medic and Heavy models

Valve saved money by using the same voice actor for various classes and characters.

Just letting the people who don't already know.

Gary Schwartz voiced the Heavy and the Demoman.

Here's a small update on what I've been working on tonight:

-Medals appear to be working for Medic and Heavy

-Fixed Medic's Uebersaw taunt

-Smoothed out a little Medic rigging

-My friend who's helping me test has found the script that controls audio file volume, pitch, etc. I'll have to edit the values for every single line, but I can make them a little bit louder and reduce the falloff so the echo isn't so prominent in-game.

-Dissappearing Heavy is resolved on friend's computer.

I'll update the files tomorrow morning. I'd do it now, but it's too late and my home internet uploads at like 24kbps, lol.

If the Heavy was disappearing for you, try out the newer version when I release it tomorrow, and let me know what happens. It's hard to test this issue since I'm not getting it and can't replicate it, so your feedback is very important in getting it properly resolved.

These are fantastic!

If you're one of the people who has been getting the invisible Heavy, try reinstalling it with this link: [url]http://www.mediafire.com/file/azzmxydczmj/heavy.rar[/url]

Let me know if anything is resolved for you, since player feedback from people who are getting the error is the only way I can test my changes. When it works, I'll update with a new version on FPSBANANA for everyone.

Also, I updated the Medic with the Ubersaw taunt fixed, if that's been bugging you. The medals are still wonky and need some more time, and that's my plan for this evening.

You're not gonna make her compatible with that hwm stuff, are you?

[Dysprosium]

This is probably just something I'm missing but.. I can't seem to get any facial expressions to work with the female heavy model, or any model. I had to remove "mp_usehwmmodels 1" from my autoexec to use the custom model but that seems to have removed any mouth movement and such too.

Is there any way to work around that? Other than that issue on my end, your work on this is fantastic! The two characters fit the style of the game very nicely. :)

You also have to remove 'mp_usehwmvcds 1' if you remove 'mp_usehwmmodels 1'

Do that and the mouth-movement will work.

I would highly appreciate it if you'd say who voiced your Heavy and your Medic.
Rate me dumb if it was obvious.
Rate me clocks if i'm late.

[Jericho_Rus]

Female Medic model looks really awesome, but that Heavy... makes me want to puke... :ohdear:

[TheDecryptor]

Fantastic models, not that surprising though considering the quality of your art.

@Dysprosium: Don't forget to disable the HWM VCDs, otherwise you won't have any facial animations at all.

Edit: Beaten :argh:

Can't see what's wrong with her, [s]comrade[/s], she's as h... beautiful as The Heavy can be.

By the way, i think i'm installing your medic model. I'd like to remind you that i have never installed a single skin or a soundpack just out of pure principle, and you're the first one to change my mind.

I'd make LOD's before I'd even think about that.

That fixed it for all of the other classes, but I'm still not getting any sort of lip syncing for the heavy during the taunts.

Thanks a bunch for the quick response guys. :)

Does the mouth move at all or show any facial expressions? I so, the mouth movements don't always play during some taunts, I've noticed. I want to do the lip syncing with Faceposer, but it doesn't seem to be compatible with Windows 7. So I'll have to wait until I can fix my broken dekstop with XP for that stuff.

The voice quality & acting of the female heavy was :barf:

Voice acting is difficult though, and getting a voice actor as good as TF's for cheap (nevermind free, which Chemical Alia wants) would be quite a task.

To be honest, NeoDement hit it dead on. The Heavy suffered from quality loss, the Medic suffered from an embarrassed VA.

[whackjob278]

i found a bug, some of the original medic death screams are still heard during gameplay

[DainBramageStud]

Medic looks really really thin is the only complaint I can make about this brilliant mod.

Maybe it's because of the contrast with the muscular males surrounding her.

[Magikoopa24]

Hearing the female heavy say to the male medic, "Get behind me doctor!" is really taken on a new meaning. Also, next time, the russian accent makes the w's sound like v's. I heard "Me and my, sand[b]w[/b]ich," and I was kinda sad.

[Nohj]

That heavy fix fixed it for me. <3

[editline]10:57PM[/editline]

And now I am spammed with bone merging errors for the medic. These crash the game after a few seconds.

[ChemicalAlia]

Here's a list of fixes from this evening:

- Invisible Heavy should now be fixed.
- Medals working on both characters.
- Übersaw taunt animation now works.
- Increased the volume of the audio files slightly.
- Touched up some weighting on both characters

Re-download and install for the updates.

The bonemerge errors have been there since the beginning for me, but caused no actual performance issues. Someone else was having this problem, I believe some other script or mod might be causing the crash. Do you have anything else installed?

Nothing else is installed. I only got these errors after fixing the heavy. I did NOT redownload the files yet so let me try that.

[editline]05:45AM[/editline]

Ok I still have a shit ton of errors and my fps drops to 5 but no crash. Also female heavy sounds still dont work.

[editline]05:57AM[/editline]

Could it have something to do with the Voice Over cfg? I noticed that both packs had one and I didn't know if they were the same or not.

[gagaters]

OMFG YOU RULE!!! Thank-you SO Much for the Birthday present :3 My Birthday was yesterday :D you are now forever in my book of epic people

[Puvleek]

I can't wait to see female Demo.

Found a fix for those bone merge problems. I'll send it to Chemicalalia when she gets the chance.

I think you should be able to choose.
