TF2 Emporium 65 - End of an era - Games

The cable feels a bit out of place and unnecessary to me. What's the purpose of it?

Yeah, noticed that with all of the screenshots I got with it, I'll go get some quick where it's a little less dark.

[QUOTE=Gadget | TF2M;51953893]The cable feels a bit out of place and unnecessary to me. What's the purpose of it?[/QUOTE] It's a rubber tube, I assume the purpose of it is to help drain the water from the jacket when it's not needed or needs replacing. It's on all examples of the hellriegel gun: [t]http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/battlefield/images/f/f0/Standschutze_Hellriegel_1915_IRL.png/revision/latest?cb=20160828192510[/t] Main reason I included it was to give it a bit more of a unique silhouette, as you already have the cleaner's carbine which also has a bulky barrel.

[QUOTE=TheFORBIDDENF;51953906]Why are people disagreeing with this effect?[/QUOTE] Because they can't be bothered to type feedback.

[QUOTE=TheFORBIDDENF;51953906]Why are people disagreeing with this effect?[/QUOTE] Probably because it uses the Balloonicorn, which Valve has said in the past that they wouldn't accept on workshop submissions. Something about reserving the IP for Valve made content only..? Not really clear on it myself, other than the Balloonicorn is to be avoided when making stuff. Someone else probably knows the details.

I feel really bad now about this :(

Who knows, maybe reddit will take a shine to it and you'll get a lot of promotion on your other items from it.

And I'm hoping from here that there will be more workshop stuff to come, as well as new learning experiences!

[QUOTE=EArkham;51954421]Balloonicorn restrictions .[/QUOTE] Well if this is the case how did the combustible cutie get in... Maybe these are new development members that add in things that the original team would not

[t]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/251114932265943040/290942966799794186/smg_spy.png[/t] I did make another smg a small while back while getting into things, but I felt that it was too similar to the cleaner's carbine. My intention was a spy-like pistol converted into an SMG hybrid. If anyone wants to make it then it's up for grabs.

[QUOTE=NeoDement;51955992]Yea I think that's out the window since the Combustible Cutie got added[/QUOTE] I feel that's different enough because the creator made it from scratch and it looks different. The Unusual effect uses the Ballonicorn's design to a tee, and someone could make a case for copyright on Valve IP for it. Reading that back I feel like I described it dumbly, so a visual aid would help: [t]http://i.imgur.com/w90e2wO.png[/t]

It's just if you want any chance of this getting ingame it'll likely need some changes. Which is a shame. This effect on a Combustable Cutie would be hilarious

[QUOTE=ZombiPlastiClok;51956228] The Unusual effect uses the Ballonicorn's design to a tee, and someone could make a case for copyright on Valve IP for it.[/QUOTE] First things first, let's not all forget the Balloonibouncer as well, that was from the Workshop too. But besides that, the only ones who could make a copyright claim on Valve IP would be Valve, and I don't know why they'd do that for something someone is offering to them to put into the same game as that IP. They don't disallow the use of the TF2 logo, class logos or class likenesses on items, after all. Only reason I could think for them wanting to generally exclude the Balloonicorn is that they don't want to look like they're still even trying to actively support Pyroland.

Hey everyone, I'm trying to get into modeling and I'm doing my first ever tf2 weapon : [t]https://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2017/11/1489502748-try.png[/t] [URL="https://p3d.in/6StsQ"]Here's a link to a 3D view[/URL] It's supposed to be a spy knife inspired by a french brand of knife named opinel : [t]https://www.opinel.com/sites/default/files/produit/boutique/ndeg08_inox_web.jpg[/t] Anyway I'm trying to make this weapon more tf2-ish and I thought this might be the best place to ask for tips

[QUOTE=VIPig;51958951]Hey everyone, I'm trying to get into modeling and I'm doing my first ever tf2 weapon It's supposed to be a spy knife inspired by a french brand of knife named opinel Anyway I'm trying to make this weapon more tf2-ish and I thought this might be the best place to ask for tips[/QUOTE] Looking great so far, a little more details and this'll make an excellent addition to tf2 workshop. You might also want to add some bevel to the blade, it'll put some nice depth to it. [T]https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Km4qtzKlu3s/maxresdefault.jpg[/T] *edit* another tip would be to make the blade more flared and larger in general, since tf2 weps tend to have exaggregated proportions. For example, the blade of spy's butterfly knife is considerably wider than other similar blades [T]https://images.knifecenter.com/thumb/1500x1500/knifecenter/bearmgc/images/BC114n.jpg[/T] [T]http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/540752089389626341/47F3B28DE873AD6C9E404499EAF5738B311DC268/[/T]

[QUOTE=Pie_Tony;30835128]Well after this, I can officially announce me and idle are getting back together to make the Mediray-dar V2. This time with full backpack, as the fact he mentioned the raydar out of the blue after nearly 2 years of it being submitted seems a bit to much like a hint. so we're making a backpack now for it and redoing the entire thing (though the radar part will be pretty much the same, the design was brilliant in our opinions) [/QUOTE] Well sadly idle dropped out of the project, so Folkye has taken up the job. Here is the concept I made for it and a Needlegun concept too, I'm hoping to make it into a vietnam themed pack for medic: [img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/251114932265943040/291272016907206657/mediraydar_colourin.png[/img] [t]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/251114932265943040/291228445294329857/needlegun2.png[/t] [sp]The joke is it's taken me 6 years to do a decent concept for the remake of the medi-raydar. I'd be surprised if people here remember it. Also the fact I still never decided which, medi-raydar or mediray-dar was better.[/sp]

[T]https://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2017/11/1489518730-try.png[/T] This still needs quite a few adjustments but it's already way better !

Progress on my jungle set for the scout!

Beef up those pouches, they look too small compared to the scout
