[QUOTE=NeoDement;45301656]Why wouldn't you make it paintable? "Not everything needs paint" is a silly reason that basically equates to laziness.[/QUOTE]

Sometimes you don't need paint, I really hate many of the paints, because it completely burns the values and subtle hues.

Being "lazy" can be good [URL="http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/3314949717605978940/9EC47E7D1779E8AACBDCE862677BEE95300C1C44/268x268.resizedimage"]sometimes[/URL].

And for some cosmetics there is no paint because of team confusion (your cause wouldn't be, though).

For example, the Warmth Preserver. This item was actually going to be paintable, but valve changed it.

you dont see pyros in any other color either[/QUOTE]

But that's sorta why I don't like it. The pocket pyro and this pipe are based off things that already exist in the game and have a a set color scheme. You'd never see a pyro like that because there are none in that color, same for pipes.

[BANG!]

Finally found some time to make these from the fantastic concepts by Retrocitrus!

Is that just me or Valve screwed up Demoman's model in Love and War update? I'm asking because the "Smiley" does not appear anymore while taunting with Grenade Launcher/Pain Train/Scotsman's Skullcutter.

yes they did
same thing happened with soldier, the 'rocket' bodygroup does not appear sometimes when he's reloading or doing the juggle taunt

I noticed that too. We'll have to wait another year for Valve to fix it :/

I didn't say every item needs to be paintable... But I still think this one should be and no valid case has been presented for it not to be.

Back from my little break from TF2/Emporium.

How's everything been around here?

[NodrawNT]

Hi everyone, can someone help me ?

I decompiled the model of the butterfly knife, modeled and textured my model then exported it, but with the itemtest map I can see this is actually on his head or in his back, any suggestion for improving that please ? :(

I tried to skin it to the weapon_bone of the butterfly knife but now the knife is on my back

[QUOTE=FiveEyes;45301748]Not laziness. I'd do it but I feel as if just the red and blue works better as [b]you don't see pipe bombs in any other color.[/b]

But that's also why I asked, to see if people wanted it more than I though. The answer was no, don't make it paintable.[/QUOTE]

What? yes you do, he has yellow ones on his chest and the uncharged ones you load are gray...

plus having it paintable saves you from having to use two separate textures as you can use the paint to apply the team colors.

I really don't see how paint on this would hurt the item in any way.

Brilliant! best item I've seen from you for sure

[Venezuelan]

it's a really silly idea anyway and you've already crossed the point where any logic would apply to it so just make it paintable

for future reference I would try to avoid making items that have no substance outside a silly pun in the first place though

Did you parent the knife to weapon_bone? Actually for that matter, what program are you using?

[perrryz]

alright so til I figure out the flexes thing:
I think that this model can really turn out to be something, so if anyone's interested
Soldier pyjamas, unwrapped, needs texturing and rigging

Needs more butt-flap

[FiveEyes]

Does the importer window mess up facial flexes? When I tested it by using the laugh taunt the flexes didn't rest and the pipe stayed int he demo's chin, but in HLMV they seem to work fine.

[QUOTE=ZombiPlastiClok;45302384]Did you parent the knife to weapon_bone? Actually for that matter, what program are you using?[/QUOTE]

Oh sorry I forgot, well I use 3dsmax 2014 with Crowbar and Wallworm tool.

I decompiled the butterfly knife model for the weapon_bone (my knife is parent with it, but it's a w_model so maybe ... ?) and I used the kunai as a reference because the butterfly model is looking weird in the viewport (since it import the arm bone ... yes w_model)

I am sure I'm missing something but I tried all the day and i'm tired of launching TF2 just to see that the knife is no more in front of me but below me, above my head or in my back ... :(

Well this happened.

Importer doesn't display flexes, you'll have to load the item in HLMV.

[FiveEyes]

[QUOTE=SediSocks;45302451]Importer doesn't display flexes, you'll have to load the item in HLMV.[/QUOTE]

Ah okay good to know. I was confused why they worked fine in HLMV but got stuck in the Demo's chin in the preview.
