[QUOTE=Baboo00;26822092]We (you) need to organize a petition to put LoDs and V/W models back into the game. And if the petition doesn't work, a boycott.

I'd make LODs but Valve didn't even bother sending a thank you note or something for the paint update, so I'm really reluctant on doing that.

daimao, we appreciate your work and we're sorry for having you be the middleman, but you need to get valve to sort their shit out. this is fucking gay.

I swear it if I could model I'd help you every day and night :smith:
[QUOTE=treythepunkid;26822039]As for the file size, does it really? I never knew the changing of a lights brightness caused an increase in file size.[/QUOTE]The file size thing is not really a big problem in alpha maps because you have few props, lights, etc. However, once it hits beta and the map is stuffed with lights, props, etc. the compile times and map file size start to get crazy like Hideous_ said.
(This is also directed at anyone else who thinks lights going on and off in TF2 is a "good" idea)
@Daimao: If there was a petition for you to get recompensed for your work in some way I'd sign it, and I'm sure a great deal many others would too.

This looks cute. Put a scout on it :3
I made a guillotine a long ago on scketchup. If anyone would like the sorce files for making it an in game prop I could provide it (if I find the files).
Someone needs to make a crossbow sentry for the medieval game-mode.

I think you should get a fraction of all paint sales. As for LODs, please? We need them.

Flickering does not mean flashing on and off, from what I can tell. Flickering is dimming and then going brighter again, I thought.
[QUOTE=NanoSquid;26823360]koth_harvest_event[/QUOTE]
Its a relatively small map (and a gimmick) so I guess it ok there. But on any large scale map (like a payload map) you want to keep the file size a low as possible.

Because valve and who ever made these sounds can not do their job right.
[sp]which could have been valve also[/sp]
Also coming to a Shugo's sound fix near you.
Depends. I've always thought it was going on and off in quick succession. where as in Harvest they just go full off for a period of time.
[QUOTE=TheGrayFox;26823362]Flickering does not mean flashing on and off, from what I can tell. Flickering is dimming and then going brighter again, I thought.[/QUOTE]Oh god that would be even worse. And Hideous_ already explained why:
[QUOTE=Hideous_;26822060]Making the light flicker in the game makes vrad make several lightmaps - one for every combination of lights on and off. Giant filesizes, here we come.[/QUOTE]So instead of just 2 passes (one for off, one for on) it would be one for EVERY level of light.

Well, there'd be something 'off' about a fire-based lamp not flickering, IMO.

Big torches don't flicker as much as candles.

However, you could argue that Degroot is not taking place in medieval times because there is a little room with some spytech in it attached to RED's spawn. Now with in mind one could say that its still 1968 and that the lamps in trey's map are all electric powered.
I know this sounds like a stretch but when your working with source you need to keep in mind its limits and work around them.

If you really think so it'd help if you emailed that to Robin. :buddy:
As for LODs, I just took a look at the Ambassador and the Direct Hit and they kinda prove your point.

Well a prop found in the games files "offically proves" it's not in medival times.

I would make the point that you're trying to apply logic to a game where you throw jars of piss at people and eat and drink various crap for effects such as healing but then i remember that the emporium is ODC central and probably the only bastion of perfect detail left in the tf2 community.

Also, i bet i'm doing something elementary wrong when i try to make a texture and this pops up in the console.
[quote]Material models/weapons/c_items/c_gatling_gun does not support vertex format used by the mesh (maybe missing fields or mismatched vertex compression?), mesh will not be rendered. Grab a programmer![/quote]

Well, you SHOULD get money from the paint, it was your fix after all.
I love you guys really, also don't bother with my problem turns out i forgot to include a .vmt
well done brain you've made me looks stupid yet again. At Least you're consistent in your failure.

I concur
Can someone help me make a checklist of every non-standard weapon? I'm going to make those LODs.
Tell Valve to do it their own damn selves. It's not like the community should do anything for them because they're too damn lazy. They're game designers, damn...
