TF2 Emporium XXVII - Games - Facepunch Forum

[QUOTE=Sharp_Shooter;26935250]It has 200 rounds yet it looks like it only holds and fires six large rounds. I think you should have modified the model and added a round drum instead or at least have two versions of it, because it doesn't make sense. Otherwise excellent work.[/QUOTE] I'm doing this in my version. AUTOMERGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[QUOTE=DatWut?;26935593]In germany too.[/QUOTE] Shhh, this thread isn't aboot Christmas. [QUOTE=Sharc;26935235]I think it fits the Pyro's facelessness the best (I'll draw out a concept version) but there is also a workable Spy version of it too.

[QUOTE=Shugo;26935793]:swoon: Submit it. SUBMIT IT.[/QUOTE] Don't you think there's a reason why Valve scrapped that piece of concept art?

[QUOTE=Marik Bentusi;26935905]Don't you think there's a reason why Valve scrapped that piece of concept art?[/QUOTE] That was Valve's concept art? Huh.

I made a few more changes to the chainsaw, and my Australian cohort who helped on this project idea wise is also going to help me optimize it a little better (you think the polycount is high? Try the TRIANGLE count, it's 24,000+!). Anyway, this is pretty much the finished product; very few changes will be made after this. One of the things SeneorGoat suggested was to use a thick pipe border with a plane in it that has a alpha texture on it for the chunk guard. I disagree, but what do you guys think? I find the alpha textures in Valve games don't come out so great for sharp edges... but if it's preferable I'll do it. Honestly, I like the mesh myself.

I'm prepared for this.

[QUOTE=Marik Bentusi;26935905]Don't you think there's a reason why Valve scrapped that piece of concept art?[/QUOTE] ...I don't think Valve designed that.

[QUOTE=Marik Bentusi;26935905]Don't you think there's a reason why Valve scrapped that piece of concept art?[/QUOTE] That's not Valve's concept art. It's a community piece that's been circulating for like two years now. I don't even remember who made it anymore. [editline]24th December 2010[/editline] [QUOTE=CHRISTIAN_GAMER;26936070]It's concept art by fishbus. You may recognize him from such maps as Freight and Steel[/QUOTE] Yeah, him. Figures it'd be the Steel creator, my favorite map. Time to go buy more Steel stamps. :love:

So what's new with the 'Electric Pack' everyone was so interested in a while back?

[QUOTE=Asphyxia;26936199]So what's new with the 'Electric Pack' everyone was so interested a while back?[/QUOTE] Nothing, it hasn't really got started yet as we have no promo page thing. And stuff.

[QUOTE=CHRISTIAN_GAMER;26936070]It's concept art by fishbus. You may recognize him from such maps as Freight and Steel[/QUOTE] Yeah, I know. And he doesn't work for Valve. Therefore, Valve didn't design it. Why did you even post this

Also, sort of nitpicking here but the Befors is angled wrong in relation to the cross hair. Here's a picture to show what I mean. [IMG_thumb]http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/8308/beforsangle.png[/IMG_thumb]

[QUOTE=Sexy Robot;26936218]Nothing, it hasn't really got started yet as we have no promo page thing. And stuff.[/QUOTE] Uh, hey, about that... is this like going to tesla coil weapons and the like? I'd love to see some concept art, since I was gone for a while.

[QUOTE=Sharc;26936049][img_thumb]http://img638.imageshack.us/img638/4017/medievalpyro.png[/img_thumb] [/QUOTE] Ooh, instead of eyeholes, it should jsut be holes. Like, with black on the other side. The look we're going for here is scary, which means as little anthropomorphization as possible, so that he looks like a monster instead of a person. Thus, instead of visible eyes, let's just have black pits.

By the way, I forgot to mention this but I finally got a solid answer from Robin regarding the inclusion of my loadout icons in-game... ...and he says they aren't interested. Oh well. Doesn't mean I'll stop working on it or anything; just that it'll remain a community mod.

[QUOTE=CrazyBaconLegs;26936531]Did he happen to mention why? Seems a bit odd, if you ask me.[/QUOTE] He didn't say why, but it's not hard to see why they wouldn't want to bother with importing hundreds of user-made icons into the game. There isn't anything REALLY wrong with the originals in the first place; just a few that clip on the edges a bit. Not to mention if they did choose to use my icons, what happens when it's time to release new items? They would either have to very dangerously give a commoner like me access to their secret new models just to make some silly icons or they would have to put out their usual icons and wait for me to make new ones every single time. Not exactly the easiest thing to arrange given how busy they are with far more important things.

Because Robin doesn't want Gabe to fire the entire art staff for not being able to do what they're paid to do that Shugo has been doing for free this whole time.

Oh wait, I think I just delayed episode 3 again. Sorry. :saddowns:
