Hey guys, rate me dumb, disagree, whatever, but I wanted to apologize
I was reading back on my older posts, mostly regarding the spirit cap, and i know its only been like a couple days
but I realized how irrational I was being
honestly I cant believe i was being such a prick
Anyways I just want to ask for a second chance here.
I'll try to take criticism better
I've got a space race scout WIP if you guys would like to see it
anyways, sorry about the trouble, at least consider giving me a second chance.

I still suck at rigging! :v:
But I'm sure I can do better before I hand it off to someone else. It's a learning experience. All of this is practice...
Does anyone have advice on how I should go about making a normal map for it? Should I just make a high-poly variant in 3DS max or should I use a sculpting program?[/QUOTE]
if you want rigging advice for 3ds. this is all i can really say. weighting tables are your biggest and best assets for rigging. you can edit each bones overall weighting right there and then and perfect them to however you want.
weighting tables are what made rigging the medic balaclava that much easier, i could match the weighting values perfectly with each vert on the medic himself doing this.
Anyone can record good tutorial about rig in blender/3ds max for Team Fortress 2?
Gadget have good timelapses.

i would but i have no idea for what to use to record rigging
I'm just going to post this here and ask a few things about it. criticize it how you will, ill read it and take what you say into consideration, but i have one or two big questions about it.
1: [t]http://puu.sh/8YYzs.jpg[/t]
I already have a saturn-esque design on the belt, but I'm not sure I want it. I have two other ideas for the buckle, so wrenches for stars, clocks for saturns, rainbows for moons.
2: [t]http://puu.sh/8YYyT.jpg[/t]
I have the miscs pretty much down pat, but I'm wondering what to do with the head. I'm thinking a small bubble helmet with a rebreather of some sort. I'll mock up a quick concept here.

I have no skill in rig and video can help me

He's very limited, the firing isn't very thought out and the taunts aren't blended atm, but this is what I have so far.[/QUOTE]
can you make this a saxton hale mod when it's ready?
I'm only releasing it as a mod because 1 or 2 of the people here wanted it.
I will always upload a finished (or not so finished) model as a mod even if only one person shows interest in wanting it to be a mod.
However i will only upload to the workshop if i think it's worth it. This item is not in my opinion worth workshopping.

Had this sitting around for ages, its up for grabs.

I'll try to do it on the next item I rig. (using a mix of 3ds max and blender)

the shoulder and hand miscs make the exposed arm models in between look lanky and too thin. maybe do something to make his arms look thicker or do something to the misc to join them making it look baggy? i don't know its just the exposed arm bits seem off.

if you're going for a bowl-like helmet, i'd suggest using a desing that both connects with the rest if the body and integrate it with his shirt and/or works well with the rest of the shirt/vest items the scout already has.

i strongly suggest not to cover his mouth also.
Working on texturing the Overcover now. I need help on deciding a good base color. I'm torn between these three. (Ignore the still-shitty rigging)
Operator's Overalls:

Agree for overalls, disagree for balaclava, funny for debonair, please.

honestly, the color in all 3 of them just doesn't seem quite right, but if i had to pick i would say debonair.
If you're using blender, the transfer weights tool is one of your best friends. You've also got to remember that the mesh itself needs good topology in order to properly move
thats a sexy pair of boots/gloves indeed.
not sure avout the tshirt and the mask.
Basically when I get bored, this happens

Boots and gloves will be one cosmetic slot. :)

I would love to have CSGO's sticker system in TF2, actually.
Anyone have the link to the TF2 class in reference pose without their hats and grenades for concepting purpose? Every time the link is posted on any Mod Emporium, it isn't in any of the expansions.
[QUOTE=Vincentor;44895559]I would love to have CSGO's sticker system in TF2, actually.[/QUOTE]
Agreed, there needs to be much more personalization in TF2, not just renaming and describing.
[QUOTE=Ascar;44895666]Agreed, there needs to be much more personalization in TF2, not just renaming and describing.[/QUOTE]
There's also killstreaks and item qualities of course, but being able to paint certain weapons, adding stickers and such would be nice
yeah, i bet the black box painted lime would look beatiful.
How well would you guys accept a top 10 workshop items of the week video series?
I hardly doubt that anyone would say no to get more votes and exposition.
[QUOTE=Metaru;44895905]yeah, i bet the black box painted lime would look beatiful.[/QUOTE]
I meant stuff like the Lolichop, Scorch Shot, Candy Cane and GRU. Just a very few selection of weapons.
Maybe even the lights for Festive weapons.
[QUOTE=Metaru;44895942]I hardly doubt that anyone would say no to get more votes and exposition.[/QUOTE]
Yes of course, tought my main objective with this would be to bring attention to items that deserve attention but don't always get the attention they deserve.
[QUOTE=Metaru;44893204]that looks quite cool actually. how would it look from the back?[/QUOTE]
It would look something like this:
[img]http://i.imgur.com/2SsvDUY.png[/img]
So should there be another misc to go with this or it's just fine as the hair and the vest?
[QUOTE=JPRAS;44895975]Yes of course, tought my main objective with this would be to bring attention to items that deserve attention but don't always get the attention they deserve.[/QUOTE]
You coud also make a Top 10 TF2 Item Sets Episode, or maybe Themed Episodes like Top 10 TF2 Summer Items etc.
