TF2 Emporium 51: Not late this time edition - YOU ALL HAVE A CHAT THREAD FOR CHATTING/OFFTOPIC, USE - Games

[QUOTE=Bazkip;39539330]The SMG is damn nice, and the misc is nifty too, but the rifle feels kind of like a bunch of different firearm accessories were haphazardly tossed together with complete disregard for functionality. Sniper rifles never have magazines of such capacity, it would get in the way of lying prone or resting it on anything. I suppose you're trying to make it make sense with the current animations, just say it's a 25 round magazine to explain the lack of reloading but I think it would look much better with a smaller magazine, and also with a less protruding magwell. Wire stocks don't exist to be good, they exist to be folded or retractable. This appears to be neither, and would be extremely impractical for a marksmanship. As Batandy say it looks too flimsy, and you said that you might thicken it up. May I suggest that you style it more along the lines of this? [t]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a5/Caroline-derriere-bipode-p1000524.jpg[/t] Still gives you a similar sort of look and differentiates it from other sniper rifles in-game while still looking like something sturdy enough to be able to properly brace yourself using. I know actually making sense isn't out utmost importance in TF2, but design should at least somewhat follow the principles of actual functionality to achieve the appearance of looking like it could work. And tbh these issues don't only seem to be issues of logistics but aesthetically I find it makes the whole thing look a little wonky. Also feels a tad stubby, though a thicker stock may help in that regard. Anywho, hope you take this into consideration, looking forwards to seeing an improved, finished product![/QUOTE] The mag doesn't seem like an issue to me considering it's meant to be a exaggerated feature, making it a tad shorter wouldn't do any harm though i suppose.. As for the stock i figured including details suggesting it folded would be a waste. Perhaps if we'd put some nuts near the connecting parts to suggest you'd unscrew it when not needed would be good enough? I did try giving it a stock that attached over the grip rather than under it and i couldn't get it to look good and in fact it looked even flimsier than what this does however seeing how you're not the only one to point out the stock i could keep tring some different ones

I'd like to make that soldier set

In regards to the stock my issue with it wasn't so much the fact that it didn't fold, more so that wire stocks aren't really the best and putting one on a weapon meant for sharpshooting is counter-intuitive. It'd be fine if you didn't add anything to suggest it folded so long as you modelled it after a thicker type of stock, such as the SG 550 I posted.

Hey Constructor, whatever happened to this? [img]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/65370244/Degroot.png[/img]

[img]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/39556064/concepts/BoxyRifle4.jpg[/img] Is this stock better? [t]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/39556064/concepts/BoxyRifle3.jpg[/t] old for comparison has the proportions of the heatmaker stock rather than the stock stock I quite like it, feels like it balances it up better

[t]http://i.imgur.com/jB58KEH.png[/t] Would you guys prefer it more rounded, or what? How is the broken chunk, I mean?

[QUOTE=Erfly;39540907]Hey Constructor, whatever happened to this? [IMG]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/65370244/Degroot.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] I remember him saying something about it turning out not so good [editline]dicks[/editline] Also hat is now paintable [img]http://puu.sh/20uXt[/img]

Watching tom and Jerry when I saw this...I imagined Spy wearing what he was wearing. I started laughing and had to do this. [B]Please do not take seriously![/B] [IMG]http://puu.sh/20v8b[/IMG]

[QUOTE=Erfly;39540907]Hey Constructor, whatever happened to this? [img]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/65370244/Degroot.png[/img][/QUOTE] It probably vanished into obscurity, like other things I would rather not mention.

[QUOTE=Venezuelan;39540054]I doubt Valve is ever gonna touch decals again but they certainly won't for something that isn't the main focus of the item.[/QUOTE] I don't think Valve ever intended decals to be used outside of the main four items.

Is there anyway I can have my concepts not overlooked. Or is it just a thing where your name has to be more famous to have a second glance at? Or is it that my ideas a really mediocre that no one likes them?

I haven't seen any PDA items in a while.

Anyone here know how to fix running animations? It seems my running animations are broken. It wasn't like this yesterday, and I didn't install any mods that changes the classes models and animations. I would really like help on this please.

hi so I'm reworking [URL="http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=4202"]Nessie [/URL](again) should I leave the yellow belly or make it all a consistent color and should I make the entire thing plaid or just leave it as one plaid patch?

So these concepts are all I can do at the moment until summer rolls around. Maybe it is the fact that I am making weapons and not hats... Also, I have no clue how to make it 'Public' :V

I'm having an issue, for some reason the model is shown at a weird right angle, is there a way to fix this? I'm using 3dsMax also. [img]http://speedcap.net/img/f94e2f952e98047873aa5705cb2bb24e/2c1ea620.png[/img] [B]ANOTHER PAGEKING?![/B] Now I'm sad.. :C
