TF2 Workshop of Horrors - 2015 Community Halloween Event

[void~]

Collections have been finalized for the webpage. Minimal quality assurance was put in place to keep anything that was too extreme out of the collections, along with anything with visibly minimal effort, or anything that lacked the thumbnail template for this year. Items with extremely misleading thumbnails in comparison to their in-game appearances were also left out of the collections.

Final numbers are as follows.

Cosmetic Items - 150
Unusual Effects - 78
Maps - 21
Ghosts of Halloween Past - 49

Collections will be visible when the webpage is live. This in no way certifies what is to be added in Valve's official update.

[QUOTE=blueNES;48934803]Good luck everyone. It was fun participating, despite not getting my submission finished (I need to seriously study phong / spec maps). Even though I feel kinda left out, hope you all get your submissions on the website and I hope Valve adds a lot of items this year.[/QUOTE]

why not finish anyway for the workshop? there's always a chance valve doesn't cut it off until whoever runs tf2 shows up at work at 9am. i think the only time they cut off when they said they would was the tomb raider promo and that was probably because it involved a third party.

Hi all, I've been working on a last set with Gzeebat for the Pyro but since we didn't managed to upload the completed items on time we just uploaded placeholders and in private, so i wanted to ask if it's just to naive and optimistic to make an update and make the items public later this night, would it have a chance even if it's quite late?

I think, officially speaking, you've missed the halloween deadline. But I'd finish the items and submit them anyway, they look pretty neat. You can tag them as Halloween but I'm fairly certain Valve won't be looking at anything added after the 18th at this point.

Might want to tone down those colours a smidge, though. Right now they're kind of glaring verses TF2's more muted pallet.

[Metaru]

that yellow is just too bright for its own sake

[ratans]

like i said it's still not completed, hopefully will be polished later tonight

Just curious, are the Ghosts of Halloween Past item submissions from previous years? And I'm guessing the thumbnail template was necessary for those too.

EDIT: Shoulda just read the first post again, oops.

All webpage assets are now finished and the actual webpage itself should be up sometime soon.

Wow so many cosmetic items........

[Metaru]

most of them being cosmetic sets, wich is why the number looks so bulky.

if anything, i'm amazed at the amount of maps this initiative managed to gather.

So much for "a month isn't enough time to artpass a map" huh?

[Metabolic]

But most of the maps are just super lame reskins that are essentially pumpkins and a different skybox

Several of the maps I played seemed to have issues too. Invisible walls, endlessly spawning skeletons making game play nigh impossible and spawn rooms you can't escape from. That kind of thing.

Really not the place for posting stuff you find cool dude - that's better off in the general chat.

[TumourLoaf]

[QUOTE=Mr. Jazzels;48944119]Really not the place for posting stuff you find cool dude - that's better off in the general chat.[/QUOTE]Especially when that map isn't even included in the showcase to begin with I'm pretty certain.

[QUOTE=ElderLolz;48945134]Seeing all these amazing items in this thread makes me anticipate the people going "HOW IS THIS *new item from this year's halloween* UNRESTRICTED AND THIS *old-ass halloween item* RESTRICTED??"[/QUOTE]

That's sorta a given because we have that argument every year, only reversed.

Painful, but still better than 12 items accepted out of 100.

I hope.

you can't anticipate something that is more or less a constant every halloween.
