You could just have 2 triangles connected and then mostly transparent ;)

they could potentially whine about the resolution of the textures. :v:
To those who have gotten stuff in recently, does valve contact you shortly before adding it (less than 24 hours beforehand), more than a day beforehand, or after they add it?

Oh yeah, they're 256x256. I was following the limit listed on the site, but I could easily up them to 512. Might do that later.

I've heard of people waking up one day and suddenly one of their items is in-game, as well as people being informed that their items will be implemented at a future date (typically a few months I think)
Someday I'll have one of those situations happen to me... someday...

A friend of mine requested a playermodel. So I made it.

That's... bad. Not the fact it's MLP, but the fact his knees are broken, his arms are weird, and so many other problems it hurts.
[QUOTE=Recurracy;35146068]That's... bad.[/QUOTE]
Obviously. It's rigged for spy, not heavy. I used a heavy animation to make it scarier.
Granted it's bad anyways, but my friend was happy.
Silly Recurracy.
Ohhh. Well that explains a bit. The skeleton just looked so horribly off and painful.

Well all I know is that any valve email I have gotten has been because im trying to figure out why I have my model updating problem, or from something being incompatible (only 1 of these).
Anyway...on a different note. What do people think about a spotting scope/range finder for the sniper? Possibly on a tripod mounted on his head? Or perhaps as a melee weapon?

Valve rarely comments on anything, and when they do it's either really helpful or just a "keep up the good work!" post.

Just noticed that in my previous post about the canopic jar, there is no image of the model. Fixed that.

I already drew concepts for a millionaire pack for demo \O/
And there's no swords.
i made the springs for the sniper rifle im makin, and used the auto unwrap function on 3dsmax to make a AO map to see what it would look like

Should I try giving this thing a texture, or just deleting it as per usual mellowbloom modelling procedure?
Scope and rail mount looks pretty cool but the front especially under the barrell looks kinda bulky. Looks kinda like a shotgun.[QUOTE=Insaneicide;35147096]i made the springs for the sniper rifle im makin, and used the auto unwrap function on 3dsmax to make a AO map to see what it would look like

Something about this looks like it's just two guns fused together. I don't know.

cool, thats what i was going for, a shotgun converted to a bolt action sniper rifle, that blows the target's head clean off

They definitely check submissions that are way beyond the front page - several items that have been added have been on page 20+
And they will probably only check submissions that they really like the look of... If they're thinking of adding it to the game, I'd imagine they would test it pretty thoroughly. On the other hand they hardly ever comment, except on a select few contributors items. (I've certainly never had a comment)

D'aww. Someone likes it. You even seem to have downloaded the image.
But about the rifle, it's awaiting LODs and a texturer.

times like these i wish i could texture
[QUOTE=Da3dalus;35145237]so how often does Valve look over submissions? and how thoroughly do they search?
(also yay I'm on the third page olol)[/QUOTE]
We can presume that they check at least once a week unless it's a massive update week. I've had comments and heard from friends that had comments almost at a weekly basis in the past months. (that's also presuming that they are doing this still)

One of them has said that they do check for what's inside the files we have. I've had some of my work commented on because the lods i left in the files are just merely 20 tris smaller than the main lod (due mainly cuz of itemtest querks and me being lazy that way. Its a good way to gauge though if they really check the files.)
One other way to know that they check the files is when you dont finalize your contributor shares. They can only check your files if the contributor shares are finalized. I've had myself and some friends contacted by valve asking to finalize the item so they can view the files. This shows that they look at items based on what catches their eye and then checking them out if they fit the requirements.
Another magic number to look for is, according to a valve dev, 100 votes. If your item has at least 100 votes, it has surpassed the first pass. I know that's kinda lame but hey thats what the guy said.
Hey! I'm modelling some Dota 2 stuff again, but this time, I really want each of my items to meet a higher quality level (and not one out of three like I did when I was making them every days)
So I spend the night working on Clockwerk's wrench (yeah, this time I am making a hero weapon instead of a shop item).

I am quite satisfied with the mesh work but the texture is way too plain. Can you people like Ronin tell me what kind of tool you use to make metallic parts look more "metal-like", and I also feel like I am misusing brush strokes, so any advices on how to improve the texture is what I'm looking for °3°

Hey Constructor, want an smg to go with your rifle? Here's a stockless Suomi M/32 submachine gun.
