Here are the concept sketches for the Manmelter and Phlog replacements I talked about earlier. I'm not too happy with the MM one, but the Phlog one could look cool.

Decided to do a few icons after about a month of not working on them :v:

I don't think the first vest is exactly shugo-styled. I just positioned it on an invisible mannequin that was positioned in the coordinates of the shugo mannequins.
The first one's completely off, don't rely completely on the coordinates. The second one seems to be lacking paint?

I thought the stripe on that was white by default. I'll get on that :P
I also planned on changing the vest too, just posted to show one of the icons i did for it with the coordination.
Are we gonna get that icon pack soon?
I mean, come now, just release what you have.
What's the fucking point of even making these icons?

Juke's technically not part of the Shugo Team, he makes custom icons.

To release it for the use of the people who want to. Duh.
[QUOTE=BY;35745646]What's the point of anything we make in the emporium?[/QUOTE]
The things you make, apart from those damn shugo icons are released. The shugo icons are not, and therefore, apart from usage on the wiki, are pointless.

Yes but we know the pack is being worked on/hopefully getting released [i]soon[/i].
[QUOTE=Hatley;35745602]What's the fucking point of even making these icons?[/QUOTE]
That's actually a fairly good point, Shugo icons for custom items used to be so that your custom items would match the rest of your backpack, but now...?
If the icons are included with the actual downloads though (like I do with items I release), then it's alright.

other stuff gets released
[quote]1:27 PM - Turbo Lover: am i the only one who realises that whenever someone posts a shugo icon preview you can just save the 512x512 preview, use photoshop to make a 128x128 copy, then import the two images into vtfedit and USE THEM
1:27 PM - Lime Flavored Dragon |CSn: i thought about that
1:27 PM - Lime Flavored Dragon |CSn: but then
1:27 PM - Lime Flavored Dragon |CSn: i don't use shugo icons
1:28 PM - Turbo Lover: it seems everybody who complains about a release of the shugo icons doesn't know you can just DO THAT WHEN A PREVIEW IS POSTED
1:28 PM - Lime Flavored Dragon |CSn: you should post that
1:28 PM - Lime Flavored Dragon |CSn: lik
1:28 PM - Lime Flavored Dragon |CSn: seriously
1:28 PM - Jalcober: im to lazy to do that
1:28 PM - Turbo Lover: you do it

BY why do you never post your own ideas you lazy fuck
I wanted to release mine with the shugo team's so you could just get all your stuff at once. And because once they release theirs, you will have to replace all the custom icons with the original shugo icons, then install the custom ones again.
Not to mention I wanted to redo a few of them and check all the folders, but I guess the ones I wanted to redo are good enough. I'll still wait to release the custom pack until the normal one is released though.
Also, at what lemonade said. I always wondered if anyone was smart enough to do that, lol.

Oh, the joice of tidy up your folder to find old unfinished stuff.
Never finished it because UVmapping.
So yeah baholtzen, if you're still willing to texture it, it should be done soon!
[QUOTE=lemonade1950;35746204]BY why do you never post your own ideas you lazy fuck[/QUOTE]
Don't you realise how long that would take? Plus, not every icon has been made. Common sense.

[QUOTE=NeoDement;35746329]Don't you realise how long that would take? Plus, not every icon has been made. Common sense.[/QUOTE]
Yes it takes a few minutes for each icon, and any unmade icons would take another handful of minutes to open the model viewer and use the tutorial to do it yourself. Maybe it's not going to be of the same quality as when an official release comes out, but it beats complaining.
[QUOTE=lemonade1950;35746204]BY why do you never post your own ideas you lazy fuck[/QUOTE]
you can also grab all the tf2b.com ones, half of those haven't been officially released
for instance:

[IMG]http://tf2b.com/img/shogun_ninjamask.png[/IMG]
there all named the same as the backpack icons in the .gcf which makes them even easier to guess right
[editline]28th April 2012[/editline]
oh and they're already sized ready for use in tf2 then
[QUOTE=NeoDement;35746329]Don't you realise how long that would take? Plus, not every icon has been made. Common sense.[/QUOTE]
Plus we use uncompressed .TGA, and if you do compile the .PNG, you'll get white "jaggies" on the edges of all the icons.
Hey, little question here, anyone knows how to launch the HLMV from a shortcut or a batch file and have it load a model specified within the shortcut/batch?
This is how I believe it should work:
[CODE]
d:\Steam\steamapps\steamusername\sourcesdk\bin\orangebox\bin\hlmv.exe -allowdebug -nop4 -game "d:\steam\steamapps\steamusername\team fortress 2\tf"
-model d:\steam\steamapps\steamusername\team fortress 2\tf\models\mymodel.mdl
[/CODE]
At first it wouldn't load, I have to extract the gameinfo and the scripts directory from the tf2 GCF into my "/team fortress 2/tf/" install.
After that itdoes launch the mode viewer and picks the model path, but there is not model visible, when trying to load a file it clearly looks like it doesn't load all the settings, the GCF is not loaded, there is only the /tf/ models and when trying to load one it just doesn't show anything in the viewport, maybe it doesn't pick the proprer "game config"?
Anyone knows how to get this working?
Any help much appreciated :downs:

I did mention that. My point was, if people really want the icons now, there are options, you can either take advantage of these options or wait patiently.

Is that conical muzzle necessary? The trigger, the wrapped handle, all the funky little details and the overall silhouette make this item awesome, but the muzzle just ruins it for me.

It's meant to be like a fire extinguisher I think and it's also so it can have this cool reload:

That reload is indeed awesome, but it could be done with a wide cylindrical nozzle as well. I guess you have a point with the extinguisher thing, but.. How about just a slight cylindrical end to the cone, giving it this kind of shape?
[IMG]http://i.imm.io/nxMr.png[/IMG]
Still pretty extinguisher-like, but I think it'd look more satisfying.
what's even wrong with the muzzle, explain that first and maybe we will have a better shot at fixing it
I personally can't think of a problem with it
