[QUOTE=HollaBoys23;52949373]Hackers are really common now a days[/QUOTE] I don't run into them too often, at least not ones that are obviously hacking... I admit subtle hacks I don't notice super often though...
[QUOTE=HollaBoys23;52949373]Hackers are really common now a days[/QUOTE] Not at all - atleast in EU. If I was to give any numbers, Id say I encounter a hacker every 50 games or so.

Can I just ask, who the hell is in charge of the Team Fortress 2 Twitter? Seriously, who? [url]https://twitter.com/TeamFortress/status/934143589566767104[/url] The last tweet that actually made sense was an announcement almost a year ago about the 6th issue coming out. Everything else has been facebook links. I don't get it.
Just got Prof Grenade Laucnher fab after tour. Happe :)
Starting now, you can donate 10 dollars or more in either [url=https://scrap.tf/heals4reals]items[/url] or [url=https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/healsforreals]cash[/url] to the American Foundation For Suicide Prevention and get an in-game medal.
Is there a way to open source model files in hlmv without extracting them out of the vpk? Gets a bit inconvienent.
Hey lads, I posted this on Reddit but I figured I make this more visible: [url]https://www.reddit.com/r/tf2/comments/7hrbov/how_to_make_a_1024_x_1020_spray/[/url] I actually figured out how to make a 1024 x 1024 spray(well technically, its 1024 x 1020 so its 2 kB under the size limit). It indeed works but however, fading sprays at this size is impossible for now

The sprays I draw up usually look pretty good even at that resolution: [t]https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/870748399451443863/F5748D3612DAEFE26D54FB7E905979A66F2F2084/[/t]

No arguments about that. However, my method brings more clarity to the picture due to a higher resolution. Still, I'm amazed you got it looking that great and clear even at 512x512. Probably my perception of seeing most people make their sprays using the import spray option rather than use vtfedit. Seriously, its like 90% of sprays in your temp folder were by the import spray option :v:

So I can shrink a huge image to 512x512 dimension while retaining 99% of the image. Then yeah, I toss it into VTFEdit to turn it in to the spray.

Some rectangular pics can turn into squares depending how much you fit on the canvas. During my early spray making days, I made the error of trying to resize the pics to the spray size directly but they would end up distorted.
I was beginning to play MvM and I found the Mann in Slacks.

Worth holding onto dragon slayer paint until at least after the contracts end or is the price all downhill from here?

So. What happens to TF2 if a [URL="http://www.pcgamer.com/us-lawmaker-who-called-out-star-wars-battlefront-2-lays-out-plans-for-anti-loot-box-law/"]law banning the sale of games with lootboxes in them to anyone over 21[/URL] is put in place? TF2 is a free game, so I don't know. But I really wouldn't mind if Valve just took all the items out of all the crates and cases and just put them in the store (each with a chance of being unusual, though that might also be a form of gambling).

[QUOTE=FilthHound;52951179]They will stop selling keys in countries with such a law and continue as usual otherwise.[/QUOTE] What about mvm mann up? Will these countries be excluded from that too? What about trading for tickets and keys as opposed to buying them?

I also doubt the Trump administration and the current Congress is going to do much about them. I doubt Valve is super worried and they can always go back to selling stuff in the store, though I don't know how they would handle stuff like unusuals. It will be interesting to see what happens over the next few years. I'm guessing the industry will agree to do some basic stuff like not changing drop rates for different people and always showing drop rates.

hey guys 4 craft hats raffle [url]https://scrap.tf/raffles/5KAPMT[/url] super fp exclusive
I've done a special event every Christmas for the past 5 years now and they're always lots of fun. [IMG]http://steamcommunity-a.akamaihd.net/economy/emoticon/2015cookie[/IMG] But this year we're keeping it a bit more simple, by just doing a big ol' community pot-luck type of giveaway. I spent a decent amount of time setting it up, and I'm now starting to collaborate with friends and community members to help make this giveaway grow even larger. You can view the spreadsheet of prizes I setup here: [url]https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tTu_O-y1JtFX1gNjrYg-APN_TydLvjF_fv1kqQxAByM/[/url] We have 10 different pots, with a winner being announced every day, starting the 15th, and ending the 24th. Currently along with the help of two friends, we've got the starting total to just about $300! If you're interested in signing up, all you gotta do is comment on our community group's giveaway discussion here: [url]http://steamcommunity.com/groups/masscrabbingco/discussions/1/1489992713710264379/[/url] I understand it may look a bit shady because you have to join our Steam group in order to sign up, but if it really bothers you, you can just leave the group after signing up. No biggie! This game has given me a lot of joy over the years, and I've met a lot of friends because of it. So I enjoy giving back to the community in the form of events and giveaways.
I wish Valve gave didn't change their mind on releasing their jungle assets early, kind of weird to have one map with its own assets and the rest with community made ones.
Who do I email to ask TFTeam a question? I'd really like to know If they got any plans for MvM at all. I can give them a HUGE list of MvM bugs, fixes. Bot bugs, map fixes, wave improvements. I usually send out my bug lists to Erics, but I dunno If I should bother him with MvM.

[QUOTE=agrastiOs;52952318][url]http://www.teamfortress.com/post.php?id=35258[/url] Shapeways Figures Contest Winners![/QUOTE] The Pocket De_Dust is super cool, same with the DnD Companion Cube dice set.
I just had a Pyro in my match that was using the Phlog's Mmmph without having to do the animation. He'd just charge at you, get ubered and continue attacking while ubered for the duration of the taunt. First time I'm seeing this, is he hacking or is that a bug? Edit: Nevermind, he literally just got VAC banned, lol. Double edit: It was a faked ban apparently, and he's got that Twilight Sparkle guy on his friendlist so I'm assuming it's him on an alt. Pfft.
