Don't you think Gamzee would make a good pyro? I don't see why not!
The Pyro focuses on close range attacks and he likes surprising people.

But mostly I like the idea since, well, the Pyro* can be REALLY SCARY and is obviously DERANGED, and he delights in causing PAIN AND SUFFERING.

Finally, speech without real words.
Pyro: "Muahahahaaaaaaaaaa! Mehmeh. Mueh!"
Gamzee: "honk! HOOONK!"

The front end of his flamethrower could look like a horn.

This TF2 needs more colours and mayhem. (Domination sounds)

Didn't test them again because lazy.

[liquidMountain]

I have no idea what your talking about... but I'll look into it tomorrow :I

I noticed that the first person view of Terezi is just the same as for the Pyro. then I realised I had no pyro files in the anims folders!

How does the Demoman not fit many of these requirements? And besides, drunk and stoned are similar.

That's a very good point that is.

Back after a long-ass Haitus.
Few questions, then I'll get outta your guys' hair for a while.

Poh; any work on the Sol-gineer? I'm still kinda on the fence about redoing any voice cause NO MIC and the best I can record on is my phone. Also I don't feel like spending 20 bucks I don't have for a new one, so :1

Any new voices made?

okay, that's about all I can really think of.

hes currently in alpha/beta right now, I plan to get back to him when I'm finished with Kanaya.

Hes testable but still a work in progress.

Alright thanks for clearing that up.
On another note, this is probably a stupid question, where do I put the sound files for Terezi? I don't know where I'm supposed to place them.

if you have the sound file you should put it in the folder found here (Steam\SteamApps\<yourusername>\team fortress 2\tf)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9ajBvud5j0 also explains it.

edit: oh hey tf2 update, gotta fix the sollux model a ton now. yippee Kaye!

[Blastoking]

Ideally, we'll have multiple characters that can be downloaded for each class. It's impossible to have different characters on different teams (i.e. RED Jade Sniper & BLU Eridan Sniper), but it'll still be fun to be have choices.

[Systemic_Hysteria]

I took Singular's idea and ran with it a little bit. What do you guys think?

[Singular]

I like it! Although the typeface looks a touch off...weird. Anyway, still really neat.

Also, I don't know the maximum size for signature images offhand and I cannot seem to find it anywhere. Help me out?

That's hell of a lot better than mine.

That is so awesome.

Hmm that's where I thought, but since there were two folders named "Player" and "Taunts" and then a bunch of sound files outside of those two folders I just wasn't sure.
Edit: But thanks for the video, that helps a lot
Edit2: Actually it doesn't seem to help with Terezi's sound files though.

[just that guy]

i think, going back on what i said from the original thread all that time back, that we might be able to use sprites as buildables?
like, davesprite, but red and blue colors for the respective teams?

Buildables as in sentries and Dispencers? That would be interesting, if you aren't sure what do with the levels you could always make level one the unprototyped kernelsprite and then just add the first prototype (depending on the spite used obviously) you know? Like first level is a normal sprite, second would be like the harleqiun or bird with the sword through it and third level would be Nanaquin or Davesprite. (Sorry if I over explained it like a maroon)

[Reaper462]

Crap double posted

[Cooler777]

You can't change models of sentry gun. The reason is, pretty accurate hitboxes.

[Emeexuqu]

It is possible to change the sentry model/dispenser/teleporter, you just kinda gotta keep it within the same hitbox (like you said they are pretty accurate)
but I saw a very good model replacement for the sentry guns (the insect one, don't remember the exact name) I never reall had problems with shooting them because they were generally the same size/shape
So if you are planning on making buildables it may have to be something along the lines of beehives (it is Sollux after all) maybe something deviating from a beehive (Beespenser) sorta thing
and for the teleporter, obviously a team coloured "transportalizer" would do

[Edge the Wolf]

The problem with making custom sentry models is that you then have to animate it. So it comes out correctly. OR you have to conform your model with the already existing animation. Both of which would take a nice chunk of time

It would be easier to rig than characters, but it would be possibly more work to animate fully.

[liquidMountain]

Or you could just change the sentries' textures so maybe they've got a Skaianet logo or something?

Not sure if you guys want it or not

Its a completely legit, FREE modeling program.
It will be free until the promotion ends. So you might as well get a $150 modeling program for free. I've yet to mess around with it yet. But who knows. It already looks like its a lot nicer to use then Blender

Just note, you have to make an account to actually download it.
And the verification number that the program askes for after you install it is in an email the site sends you

Just pointing this out again.

[Reaper462]

I'm so glad I follow this thread, Thank you Edge :3

[Poh]

Just pointing this out again.

there are no view models for terezi at the moment, I'm going to have to edit some vtfs and recompile stuff before I can do that, which will be a heavy job. I'll try get to it at some point.

edit: say... hypothetically I used glasses. I'm thinking that I could try using Aranea's style for glasses. It seems like a Cat-eye would work well for a medic.
oh hey just had a funny thought, aranea's the hero of light meaning shes this healer. Just wanted to point that out.

trying something similar using the female medic glasses as filler.

Another free alternative is to get the student version of AutoCAD, which is roughly the same as a three-year trial with full access.
