[QUOTE=Smashman;27336487]We don't want a kerfuffle like Super Meat Boy. Peta'll be down here. :ohdear:[/QUOTE] Super Meat Boy got a shit ton of free publicity from it, though.

[QUOTE=Sparkwire;27335371]-picture-[/QUOTE] Why does that look similar to the "Plasma Rifle" from Fallout 3? Still a nice model.

Since I haven't been here for a few days, I have to ask are the killicons in the new update the ones Neo submitted?

[QUOTE=Zebus;27336663]ding ding ding you're a genius.[/QUOTE] :buddy:

3 of them are, the rest they didn't recieve due to a dumb error. I've got some minor revisions to make then I'm submitting them to them for their "other pass on the existing icons to update them again." [editline]10th January 2011[/editline] I don't really have any idea what that means btw [editline]10th January 2011[/editline] I'm assuming it means unconditional incorporation of my entire mod ;o

So, in a sudden fit of nostalgia, I decided to remake the first weapon I made in collaboration with Pie_Tony. So, here we go.

[QUOTE=TheFishyG;27335835]Also, something that caught my eye. I went adventuring into Emporiums of Christmas Past, and I saw that Spark actually used capital letters at one point in time.[/QUOTE] fun fact, me and spark type in all caps and it filters our posts to all lower case

[quote=chilean;27337457]fun fact, me and spark type in all caps and it filters our posts to all lower case[/quote] doubt it, steam doesnt filter it to all caps [editline]11th January 2011[/editline] And sparkwire speaks all lower case on steam too.

Just wanted to get this out there before I forget. After this theme, what do you guys think about one where the Engineer makes new weapons for everyone? Hell, that might even work for this theme if ya think about it, like Visored's Grenade Launcher. Could even call it the "Remember the Engineer Update". Ok, ok bad joke, how bout the "Engineer Update"? Lol, and don't say gold wrenches for everyone. I'm still brainstorming my concepts though, any ideas?

This actually could be a viable theme (but not for this pack), IMO.

Overly techy weapons that are gimicky, but in a good way.

update your icons mod neo k

loch n load and mini-sentry, yay

I'll get right on it. They don't have this though: [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/900111/minisentry.jpg[/img]

I'm still brainstorming my concepts though, any ideas?[/QUOTE] This actually reminded me of a "Secret Santa" sort of thing I was working on. Basically, the idea was making weapons out of components of existing class weapons, or using the basic concepts that a particular classes weapons follow. My problem was that it got tricky making the weapons unique enough without being "a spy with a rocket launcher." I like this idea of just adapting one class.

Fixed the Kritskrieg bug! :3 Now I wonder what they broke [i]this[/i] time!

[QUOTE=Reds;27338504]Good god, a golden hat like the golden wrench. You'd be able to see the flames from Pluto.[/QUOTE] That was sort of the point.

[QUOTE=NinjaFang;27338565]Fixed the Kritskrieg bug! :3 Now I wonder what they broke [i]this[/i] time![/QUOTE] I always found that ironic. Valve fixes 3 or 5 things and they break 12 or 100 other things.

[QUOTE=NinjaFang;27338565]Fixed the Kritskrieg bug! :3 Now I wonder what they broke [i]this[/i] time![/QUOTE] well ive been able to see enemies name regardless if im disguised or not

[QUOTE=The Ultimate;27338621]well ive been able to see enemies name regardless if im disguised or not[/QUOTE] Didn't they add that on purpose? It works that way in the beta, I'm pretty sure. Correct me if I'm wrong. Edit: yep! -Spies can now see TargetID's of players and objects regardless of their own disguise status. It was during the [url=http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/December_17,_2010_Patch]Christmas update[/url].

wow i dont think thats a good idea

So i'm still struggling with making the bones in my melee weapon work! [img]http://i1026.photobucket.com/albums/y322/CptNuke/item_test0004-1.jpg[/img] I don't quite understand the significance of the way things are grouped. I know vertex groups are like the same as vis groups in Hammer (ie. an easy way to sort groups of objects/vertices for easy access). I'm having a hard time understanding the significance of all the other stuff. At the top you see an orange stick figure, which i assume is where bones/meshes are categorized under. But under it you see c_mace which holds 2 bones, which i don't get because i only placed 1 bone. The orange triangle represents properties i think. I still don't know what an armature is. :confused:

[I]You can submit any HUD icons that you create for the game. They don’t have to be kill icons. We’ll review all of the submissions. What I was trying to say is that we’re going to make another pass on all of the submissions to see which icons are the best fit for the game and art style. We might end up replacing some of the community submitted icons that we’ve already shipped with better versions. -Eric[/I] I like this email.

They don't have this though: [img_thumb]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/900111/minisentry.jpg[/img_thumb] Wish they'd have just waited instead of adding another icon they probably won't want to upset the author with by replacing it with my one. Guess the HUD and icon will have to be mismatched, nice one Valve.[/QUOTE] I can't help but notice that you left the upgrade bar on that.

I'm no coder!
