TF2 Oldschool Pack Official Thread - Games

I thought I read somewhere that the game runs smoother with this texture pack running. Is that true?

[QUOTE=Insaneicide;31085471]whadya mean TF2 for TFC on gamebanana (formerly fpsbanana at the release) yeah, i plan on it, that was me too. that was the precursor (dyslexic cant tell if i remotely got that word right) to this skin set, the first project i made, because at fpsbanana, one does not simply request into. in other words, since it seemed i was the only one that wanted tom tallians models in TFC, i had to do it myself, and thus my start in goldsource started, after beta 9, an idea came into mind, and i consulted revenant100, both of us unsure on weather this would be relevant to anyone other than those that needed a performance increase, the WIP was called TF2 performance pack, most of the followers didnt like that name (at the time the wip alone was the most commented.) we had a vote, a few other names and bam, we now have the TF2 oldschool pack, aaah, brings back memories. to a time wher graphics didnt matter, where a raycast world with sprites was the best solution for gameplay, where simple textures that were a single color and the models glitched vertex normals were the shading on the textures.... oops, sorry everyone, remembering the days when FFVII and wolfenstien, doom, reined supreme, too bad i could only remember the last half of that era of gaming.[/QUOTE] Team Fortress 2 Classic. Adds bunny-hoping, grenades and a lot of other tfc things back into tf2. and Robin fucking hates it.

Alot has been changed and fixed within that time.

[QUOTE=timman;31111465]I thought I read somewhere that the game runs smoother with this texture pack running. Is that true?[/QUOTE] A) It's a model pack, with textures for those models. B) Yes, it's true.

Look at two things I found here, for the Frag Grenade and MIRV only: [url]http://www.gamebanana.com/skins/108841[/url] and [url]http://www.gamebanana.com/skins/108840[/url]

Just imagine that it served as a free bump.

Any progress so far?

DONT LET THIS THREAD DIE

We can't have this thread die, it was looking too promising.

Can anyone confirm that they are still working on this?

-snip blender has died-

Yeah, I still need this pack.

I really like the concept so far, and I'd love to see it finished. It definitely looks worth downloading!

This thread cannot die, DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?

[QUOTE=Globalnet;31352658]This thread cannot die, DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?[/QUOTE] i agree

You can probably texture on the pipes on the side

[QUOTE=NeoDement;31359960]You can probably texture on the pipes on the side[/QUOTE] probably could, but thats liek only 10-20 faces there.

THIS THREAD CANNOT DIE

I wish people would stop going CAN'T DIE WOLO It never does die. The creators and founders are often making things and they update the thread when they need to. It's gone under once before and it came back perfectly fine, so there's no need for those kinds of posts.

Could we get an idea of what it'd look like ingame, or one with smoothing off?

[QUOTE=Reds;31423754]Well, that looks a bit awkward. Could we get an idea of what it'd look like ingame, or one with smoothing off?[/QUOTE] dont worry, the texture will make a much BIGGER difference.

I'd like to point out that the Soldier model seems to... not work... anymore... All the other playermodels are working flawlessly, at least. I blame the fact that the Oldschool Soldier doesn't want to be a Space Marine.

reminds me of hogs of war
