[QUOTE=LightFlock;39570035]It's still way too shiny. $reflectivity, $rimlight and a couple others have had no positive effect. :/

I also added a metal visorish bit, noticable above and below:

Okay, I'm going to stop hogging the thread with progress of my Botter's Helm.

Y'all have a good day now.
[QUOTE=GoldenBalls;39567799]
The thing is, unlike many of your amazing models and multiple uploads/accepted items, it's likely the last and only thing I'll ever get into the game.[/QUOTE]
Why not? You're perfectly capable. I think if you were to be more active in the community you could easily get another item in. You have the technical ability, you just need another good concept, and we have plenty of those here.
(btw, I have nothing in game so you've got one up on me)
I agree. The bar's a nice looking weapon. I mean, it shows that you've got experience modelling, and the necessary software to do it.
I mean, I daresay that some of us here could give ideas for new things that we'd like to see in TF2.
I really am sorry. I did feel like kind of a dick after posting those things, but they had already been said, and I just kind of hoped your ties with Facepunch had fizzled enough that you wouldn't see, which really was a cowardly way to confront my own guilt. I just sought validation from other posters and used it as justification. I succumbed to mob mentality. And then later I was telling someone off about about the infighting we have here but inside I just felt like a giant hypocrite. And I just kind of hoped no one would notice, and my character flaws be ignored, but I guess I owe you that admission: I can be a jerk and a hypocrite.
[QUOTE=thecuntsman;39568378]Why not make your own version of the battery/dolocas, and submit it to the update/workshop? You have enough time to make something, and if you're struggling financially, it could be a good band wagon to hop onto!
Get to work!![/QUOTE]
Would it work if i credit benjamoose and the other creator in it? So about 4 people to credit, we'll see how we'll manage the numbers.
If you guys want to remake it i'm fine with it, but it would be nice to talk to Blitz 'n Barrage as well.
[QUOTE=WiltheKid;39570253]it looks like the surface of the helmet is the gateway to heaven[/QUOTE]
Batter helmet as Cheater's lament for robots?
My botter's helm is nearly done. :v: Looks fabulous on the robo-scout.

you accidentally saved the large version of the BP icon over the regular one
Did you do a spec mask yet?

Not quite, don't expect bodygroups to save you, the original Batter's Helm didn't use bodygroups. Just throwing that out there.

It's on my long list of things to do. If you mean fixing the Batter's Helmet's dumb reflectivity, yes, I fixed that.
EDIT: I seem to have misread a guide on backpack images. >.>

This is ofc just a reskin, it doesn't at all clip on the robo-scout.
EDIT: Oh crap, how did I miss that? >.>
EDIT2:
As for making it more robotic, I'm not sure if I've made it better or worse.. It looks a little "scrappy" as such, in a bad way: (old left, new right)

By replacing the Scout's playermodel with the Robo-Scout's model.

Is there actually a mod for that?

There's no bodygroups, though.
I don't think it's necessary to make boddygroups, look how the robot Heavy fits on Engi and Scout model: [url]http://puu.sh/220us[/url] [url]http://puu.sh/22035[/url]. Oh yeah, i'm not using the robot skin that replaces the actual player model, it's just a random bug that happend to me today, don't ask me why or how i did this.
EDIT: It's a joke guys

Little off topic, but what mod are you using for those flat textures?
[QUOTE=Rufia;39578999]Little off topic, but what mod are you using for those flat textures?[/QUOTE]
phongless
that or his computer just can't render phong
[QUOTE=Venezuelan;39579148]phongless

Just quick: i'm using the phongless pack for the model, but for the flat textures it's a skin, i link you on the profile
Man, this are all just so amazing. I really can't wait for this!
what happened to the old concept gallery? i wanted to post the old concept for a safe n sound i did but it seems to be gone.
