TF2 Mod Emporium 46

[QUOTE=hogofwar;35980685]It would be good if you linked to screenies or videos of the downloads (for your other ones).

Also, "both effects"?[/QUOTE]

For the most part, the effects are the same as the preview images I've been posting, but there's little details here and there that I don't want to spoil yet.
Both effects refers to the ManMelter and the Phlogistinator.

This is just a pre-release I'm doing because I want to see how other people are able to run these.

[QUOTE=Chaofanatic;35980725]You don't get a screen or a video because I've already had tons already done and its more fun if it's a surprise.

I more mean for your other releases, to see them in action.

The manmelter has a charge/reload effect?
Awesome!

Is there one in vanilla tf2?

Reposting this,
Would someone like to team up with me and actually get this finished?
I still need a phongmask and everything to get it ingame

[Chaofanatic]

[QUOTE=hogofwar;35981002]Is there one in vanilla tf2?[/QUOTE]

No there's not. I had to jerry rig the charge animation by linking it directly to the muzzle flash.

Anyway... I finally emailed the TF2 team about the manmelter.
[QUOTE]I'd like to make it known that the Pyro's Manmelter currently uses multiple particle systems from the Soldier's Righteous Bison.

drg_bison_muzzleflash is used instead of drg_manmelter_muzzleflash.
bison_idle_child_electro is used instead of drg_manmelter_idle.

The Manmelter actually has the correct systems set up, but simply doesn't use them, instead using the Bison effects.

Another thing that I'd like to bring to attention on the Manmelter is how the vacuum particles don't always activate. I don't know why, but when using the vacuum on a populated server, sometimes the particles will either stop spawning or simply not spawn in the first place.

Would it be possible to fix these issues?[/QUOTE]

I don't know how to formally complain yet.

Did you click Agree too hard or what? :v:

Too many winner-worthy posts.

[ned_ballad]

what does drg_manmelter_muzzleflash and drg_manmelter_idle look like?

[Chaofanatic]

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;35982177]what does drg_manmelter_muzzleflash and drg_manmelter_idle look like?[/QUOTE]

drg_manmelter_muzzleflash looks similar to the bison's default muzzle flash, only it's not team colored.
drg_manmelter_idle is just a few sparks.

They aren't that unique on their own, but with the way it's handled currently leads to lots of trouble with what I'm doing. Like... The righteous bison spitting fire everywhere when you fire it.

What I don't understand is why the trouble was taken to make the particles and have them be ready to use, and then the Manmelter just...doesn't use them. If they were being so lazy, you'd think they wouldn't have bothered doing any of it instead of most of it. It's like they do it on purpose now

Another thing, though- any chance someone could compile this:

For the Wrap Assassin? I've tried several times with no luck, mainly since the grenade has a v and w_model while the ornament doesn't. Thanks for any help!

I do say I quite like this VLEK fellow and his works.

[otterwolfy]

I feel pretty, oh so pretty....

While VLEK is a pretty decent modeler, his textures seem a bit too realistic, and his detailing is a bit cluttered.

Plus everything he makes is fucking so giggleboned it hurts.

[QUOTE=blaholtzen;35979183]should fix the ao under the pouches[/QUOTE]

I've attempted a fix many, many, MANY a time. But no matter what, it doesn't work for some reason! Wish I could properly explain why, but it just fails to respond.

Is it a hat, a misc, or a a hat and 2 misc items?
I want to know this, because of how it will interact with other items.

Beautiful. Is it as intense as Valve's particle effects performance-wise?

I think seeing as it covers most of the front and top of the face it'd be a hat but I could try it along side other hats and see how it looks.

Sweet Jesus, that's gorgeous. I love how much more intense they are compared to the original effects. The critical Phlogistinator especially seems to pack a punch now.

With the red eyes and that collar I seriously can't help but think of vampires. I keep expecting to see fangs in the picture.

Generic base colors.
