Alright, I'll do it, but I work on maps like how sparkwire works on everything else, just warning you.

Alrighty then.

pffft i'm sure the characters' faces have more polies than the ambassador

[Baboo00]

I wish we still had bad reading at least. Anyways, everybody go rate the OP winner!

One of the first actual spy skins I like which also has a version for Stylish spy.

Nope, the spy player model has less than the ambassador. And it doesn't even have a bullet hole.

[rampageturke]

When's the OP going to get updated with mods?

[Dachande]

When royzo wakes up

[HHBlackhawk]

When the OP feels like it.

[Vonwilbur]

I made a M. Bison YES mod for when you crit on the all the rocket launchers, should I upload it?

[A B.A. Survivor]

Sounds quite silly.

Okay so I have the compiling issues worked out with 3DS Max, etc. But when I went to compile when I went in game I didn't get anything on the screen. No model, no hands, nothing. Although I don't think it's good I don't think its completely bad either. My qc for the bat is this:

$cd "C:\Documents and Settings\Steve\Desktop\viewbat\Output"

Help please. :crying:

I don't notice any performance loss when I pull this weapon out compared to any other weapon. Why are you so hung up on this one weapon when the Direct Hit (and probably others) is just as bad?

The Ultimate posted:

i have never noticed it

Ok ignore the fact its a mess of wasted polys for something which can look the same with around half the count.

Dachande posted:

In all honesty It can't be the big performance KILLER you claim, can it? It could be excessive but surely it couldn't be a huge impact to performance?

Was a joke, the ambassador has way too many polys for being just a basic gun model, there's really no need for that amount of polys which it has.

[A B.A. Survivor]

So that's why I always lag when holding it.

[NeoDement]

So can the Direct Hit either optimise them all or optimise nothing imo

[Vonwilbur]

[Biotoxsin]

Great content so far, thought I might just throw this in here. Gif made from model viewer.

Very tempting but I most likely wont do it knowing me.

[HyperTails]

Wow fuck, these forums are ugly.

[FatalTomato]

My copy of MilkShape (trial version) ran out. While I scramble to get $20 is there any texturing work or something I can do?

[CritNick]

Wheres my drill release.

You need to turn on normal maps, bro.

By the way, weapon icons pack inbound. Just have to clean up a few quirks and pack 'em up. Then I'll work on hats over the rest of the week.

Big thanks to Skunkrocker and Pie_Tony this morning for helping to sort out some Model Viewer problems. Whatever Valve did to Model Viewer recently has made it total shit at displaying textures with partial tinting.

[NeoDement]

Cool, I should be releasing my new icons pack tomorrow, so that'll be like a cool double release sort of thing, hopefully.

[Dachande]

Double the pleasure half the time. :smug:

Well maybe if he'd stop screaming and tell us what he needs assistance with he might get it faster

I'll get it UV'd and textured soonish.

[Happyfaic]

i love how pureparanoid lurks and doesn't post

btw dachande what happened to my basement :saddowns:

[Dachande]

what happened to our friendship

Edited:

Pureparanoid hates me apparently, just blindly rating me dumbs.

I'm not dumb.. :frown:

I hope not atleast.. someone tell me I'm not dumb :smith:

[Shugo]

New weapon icons uploaded to TFB. I'm not going to bother making a mega-huge post with a preview, so check them out here: http://tf2b.com/itemlist.php Hard-refresh the page to make sure they show up (if you go on TF2B often.)

Changes:
All primary weapons redone.
All secondary weapons redone.
Some melee weapons were changed to have better angles (like the bonesaws).
Spy watches redone.
All weapons added in the Mann-Conomy Update are now done.

Tell me what you think.

[Vonwilbur]

Your not dumb dachande, I think you're awesome :buddy:

I went to click Bad Spelling and realized it's not there. Why was that one removed? :argh:

[Vonwilbur]

And shugo that sounds amazing

[Shugo]

I also didn't realize until I uploaded it that the fists icon looks kind of bad. I'll remake it in a little while.

[FatalTomato]

Very well done.
The only complaint I have (it's little) is the direction of the Darwin Shield.

It looks a little... phallic :smug:

[Happyfaic]

I noticed that too, at first glance i thought it was a massive croco-dick
