Team Fortress 2 Classic V3 - Games

[QUOTE=Cufflux;51105513]Sorry if this is spam, but... [t]http://i.imgur.com/U8eSUkx.png[/t] Second time I've crashed to this in ~30 min. Can somebody tell me what's going wrong?[/QUOTE] Serious reply tho, our engineer buildable models are higher poly than live TF2 and sometimes when buildings are destroyed for whatever reason (probably all the additional polys) they cause the game to crash. We've been taking steps to resolve this in the latest build and potentially release a hotfix that fixes it in the live beta.

Ah, thanks for the reply. Doesn't this mean that 2-3 sentries in one place will cause serious lag?

[QUOTE=Cufflux;51105620]Ah, thanks for the reply. Doesn't this mean that 2-3 sentries in one place will cause serious lag?[/QUOTE] Not particularly unless the map is full of propspam and/or horrendously optimized.

Hi everyone ! I'm trying to learn 3D modeling with blender, so for training, i'm making a model of the Henchman. I've been using this image as a reference for the frontview : [img]https://trello-attachments.s3.amazonaws.com/557620c8a59b93140cde2a69/1453x1000/d0c06f5451e59cddc632dcda9d0b4da2/HenchManFullBlue.jpg[/img] So i'm wondering, is there any sideview of the Henchman ? I can't find any.

(if possible) VIPig, that looks great. If you finish the model, then I hope alphablaster will be able to put Overpowered on his/her/Apache attack helicopter's (2016 and internet) server. EDIT: Learn to recognize concept art, Tritty...

[QUOTE=Trittyburd;51110806]Seeing that sentries cause crashes, would it be recommended to download a low poly sentry model mod to prevent crashing? (if possible)[/QUOTE] Yeah, though I believe the UV maps of our highpoly buildings are different so they'll break, and you won't have 4 team skins.

[QUOTE=goatking732;51103198]The voice although seemed like a nice touch, however the voice chosen doesn't seem (at least to me) like a good fit for the character. A mute muffled sound like pyro would work well or he could've been one of those characters or something somber in tone rather than a voice forced for him.[/QUOTE] I mean, if I was killing about 15 other people while narrowly avoiding death myself, I think a scream or two would be reasonable.

Hey peeps ! Because TF2 Classic is supposed to add cancelled ideas from the development of TF2 Beta, i think they should add the concept art Demoman who can be a separate class from the Demoman but who has basically the same stats/equipment/etc. like some sort of reskin of the Demoman but who is made in a way that let's people the choice to play between the actual Demoman and the concept art Demoman ! Concept art Demoman : [IMG]https://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/thumb/8/8d/Dm_concept1.png/450px-Dm_concept1.png?t=20111123055435[/IMG] [IMG]https://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/thumb/3/35/Dm_concept2.png/450px-Dm_concept2.png?t=20110706120606[/IMG] [IMG]https://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/thumb/4/42/Dm_concept3.png/449px-Dm_concept3.png?t=20111123060226[/IMG] Or they can even add directly a modified 4-team colored White Demoman ! White Demoman : [IMG]http://files.gamebanana.com/img/ss/skins/4ff01d90709b1.jpg[/IMG] Link for White Demoman (Made by Zorbaner, give all credits to him for this skin) (This skin was made for TF2, not TF2 Classic) : [url]http://gamebanana.com/skins/118582[/url]

While I kind of like the idea of making concept art classes, it would take a hell of a time to make models for them or take older ones and recolor them. If we were to add them in, I would say they would be a customization/enabled random chance for the character to have a concept skin. But one of the primary elements in TF2 when they were developing it is to have all off the characters quickly recognizable, even when they are silhouetted, so making new characters with current models can confuse people.

very early in development we flirted with the idea of TFC/beta inspired loadouts that you could choose or as a server thing, but we ended up deciding it was too far away from what we wanted to do.

It removes the biggest counter of the spy ; Pyro. Plus it's some real big bullshit against pyro who will be worse.

Hello again !

If you just smashed the two henchman models together we'd have a beautiful killing machine.

I've always liked the demoman right before the heritage change [t]http://www.teamfortress.com/images/posts/Dm_concept5a.jpg[/t] He seems beefier like Soldier, but just a tad top-heavy.

I just had someone insult me for W+M1ing him to death. (read: burning him to death while he was standing on a ledge with his back turned, blindly spamming rockets) In [I]Deathmatch.[/I] He played for two rounds, and any time he died to the Flamethrower, he would stop and spend at least fifteen seconds typing in chat about how it was "cancer". When I pointed out to him that W+M1 isn't even hard to beat, he claimed that that doesn't justify anything. Because using the flamethrower to kill things needs to be justified, I guess. He disconnected after I killed him with the flamethrower while he was in the middle of insulting another player for using the flamethrower. [I]why do these people exist[/I]

well alrighty then, my bad

hey you guys, a made a death match map over the past few days which i call 'dm_maize_a1'. i would put in a download link for the map, but i don't exactly know how. so if anyone would kindly tell me so, that would be great, anyway, here is a birds-eye view of the whole map. since this is pretty much the first death match map (or any map for that matter) i have publicly released. so if it appears to large or too small, please let me know [IMG_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/WjMLVEQ.png[/IMG_thumb] Here is an image of what you can see is a good view of the general area of the map. (which now that i think about it is a bad screenshot because the view of the ground is blocked off by a wall) and as you can see, it will be a farm-based level, but i haven't decided on whether it should be day or night, but i am open to suggestions. [IMG_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/eATvf8s.png[/IMG_thumb] a screenshot of a water area with a platform with a kritz powerup. i imagine it being a secluded area of the map. [IMG_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/OJ1QZpR.png[/IMG_thumb] Here is an image of the warehouse type area which is very open and has some good weapons in it and a Uber powerup (hidden under window) [IMG_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/XW1TVVx.png[/IMG_thumb] here is a filler screen shot. not much to say about it. [IMG_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/K5KUK0u.png[/IMG_thumb] so again, if anybody can tell me how to set it up to download, please say so. this will not be the last you will hear from me for i expect to be here more in the future
