[QUOTE=bigbadrick;30183447]well It would be kind of odd to have a 600 poly player model then have 1500 poly trees, barrels, and misc props everywhere.[/QUOTE] Yeah, I just never would have guessed this would become a full-fledged mod someday. I hope Sparkwire and the other dudes update the mod as TF2 updates, that would be great.
[QUOTE=Zadrave;30183686]Yeah, I just never would have guessed this would become a full-fledged mod someday.

Man, now I want full TF2 mod for TFC.

Skyboxes: if they're to be remade, what dimensions would be desired? :v:
[QUOTE=Insaneicide;30185282]i cant tell, do you have it pointsampled?[/QUOTE] I ticked the box. [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18271121/TF2/crap/shades2.png[/img]
[QUOTE=bigbadrick;30185279]Thinking about it now, couldn't the model just be 6 triangles the shape of a U, (3 faces) and then use texture transparency to make it look like them?[/QUOTE] or maybe use the same model as the sniper glasses just fiddled with a bit
So in a serious suggestion stemming from my earlier joke, you guys working on this should also submit these models as LODs so I can run the game at 60+ fps again. :buddy:
[QUOTE=The Calzone;30185425]So in a serious suggestion stemming from my earlier joke, you guys working on this should also submit these models as LODs so I can run the game at 60+ fps again. :buddy:[/QUOTE] I could ask brandon if he & the team would consider it.
[QUOTE=The Calzone;30185425]So in a serious suggestion stemming from my earlier joke, you guys working on this should also submit these models as LODs so I can run the game at 60+ fps again. :buddy:[/QUOTE] Since these models are using custom uvs would this affect how they can be used as lods? Not tried to have different lods load different materials before
[QUOTE=pogothemunty;30185705]Since these models are using custom uvs would this affect how they can be used as lods? Not tried to have different lods load different materials before[/QUOTE] they can, but when a lod has a different material entirely unrelated to the default texture, it just loads the texture on the lod. you can specifry different textures for a lod, but this is usually used on a lod that has the default texture, and it is bassically the same as the rename texture command, but lod specific.
Not as much progress today, huh? Unless if everyone's working on something big or keeping it private.
[QUOTE=Zadrave;30187810]Not as much progress today, huh? Unless if everyone's working on something big or keeping it private.[/QUOTE] Well, you see, I put forth the idea of also making this a community LOD project, and then suddenly everyone stopped working on it. Business as usual when it comes to community LOD projects, really.
Excellent. Now my laptop can run this. Will there be a lowpoly version of Gentle Manne's Fancy Dress Mod? Shit would be cash.
[QUOTE=The Calzone;30187849]Well, you see, I put forth the idea of also making this a community LOD project, and then suddenly everyone stopped working on it. Business as usual when it comes to community LOD projects, really.[/QUOTE] this isn't LOD this is N64
[QUOTE=The Calzone;30187849]Well, you see, I put forth the idea of also making this a community LOD project, and then suddenly everyone stopped working on it. Business as usual when it comes to community LOD projects, really.[/QUOTE] well. not really, we would rather not use them as LOD's mainly because that would cause us to use either a entire texture overhail on the player models at minimum or all the default weapons and such, (the player textures are WAY brighter than the defaults.) andin order to keep the style we dont know what lod to replace these models, chances are that it will be after lod 3, and thats at pretty far distances (unless ur running at low settings, in which case thats pretty close) and it would have no chance whatsoever to replace the shadowlod because of the flat planes for fingers. so as a lod replacement these models are technically invalid.

[QUOTE=Zebus;30192044]Why do you dull light bulbs think NeoDement is really a girl? [/QUOTE] Well, it says on her steam, (and what was with the comment on steam .MC. Hamster: Hey man, I want to say that even though this "project" is "yours" you took the player models from Tom Tallian originally. If anybody is the "author", it's him, and you can't take credit for shit you didn't do. Anybody can rig low poly models, and I don't see how this is a collaboration if everything has to go through you. We aren't your workhorses, so put the spurs back in the shed. .MC. Hamster is now Offline. I only said it was my project because of the fact that there wouldn’t be one without me, and I never said that toms models were MINE, almost every time I state something about the player models, I usually include the fact that they are HIS models, unless its an update on them or something, I have full permission from him, and what’s with bringing this up after its already been said and done, is it because of the newsletter from the dropbox? If you want to stay with the project contribute SOMETHING to your own designated folder, even if it’s finished stuff only. Everyone staying onboard already has, I want to prerelease since there’s an update with the Demo model and the gamebanana link is fubar, the community more than wants it, so why not give it to them When we only have a small percentage done, that way when we get the feedback, we can see what needs changing, or if anything is rigged improperly and in general Some positive feedback soz we can feel energized for the rest, Sparkwire, ima need your barrels for the hybrid physx models for general consistency. -Insaneicide If so, chill out, it’s for the community, I just wanted to have something to show for since the pack is unavailable for download, that and some people need it to even play the game, and most of all, they want to see your models in the game. What’s more, I never thought of you guys as my workhorses, u offered to help, and I like to keep tabs on what’s getting done. We haven’t even talked about what you have been doing, me and Murphy, as well as Hecates go into full detail on what’s going on with their parts of the project, [model adjustments, texture quality, and even the geometry of the models, so long as they see that’s what I need to know.] and before that, it was me and Revenant 100, then Loyen, then Neo Dement, so I don’t see what the problem is on letting me know what is going on. We don’t talk, and you and Sparkwire are the only ones that haven’t added anything to the folder, not even a separate folder for your own work. Murphy has his c and v model rigs, Revenant 100 has the scout textures without the dog tags, I have the new sniper rigs some edits to the models I have permission to edit, and Vietrice's boxing gloves with my UV's, Soja has part of the scout poly pack in there, and BigBadRick has his grim hatte in there. Everyone but you two have spoken to me about it in steam chat, [on their own will] or have added either their sources or the finished model to the files, I honestly don’t see the problem you two have with adding your stuff to the dropbox, usually in a collaboration with a shared folder ALL the work goes in that folder, including sources, all im asking you to add is the finished product, in your own personal folder, that wont get touched by anyone else unless you say so. As far as im concerned, you can work at your own pace [I can’t until Thursday as I am about to graduate and I need my grades as good as I can get them] so as far as the spurs are concerned, they were never out, I only wanted what was already done, nothing more.)
I think Insane is just protective of his project, he wants to be in control of it because it's his vision that started it, I understand it's not his models, and not his ideas really, but does that mean you don't have to listen to him when he is just trying to organize it? Although he is being a little Nazi, you don't have to lash out at him because he is protective. I'm neutral to either side, you guys shouldn't be lashing out at him and Insane shouldn't be so protective of this and be a Nazi to the people trying to help.
The project needs control for it to be a success.
Sparkwire isn't exactly the one to take orders from someone without authority or influential power.
