VoloderYeah, but it would look strange imo to have the VTV overlay mixed with the TFTV hud. Unless you just had the bird up in the corner with the TFTV frisbee as a cosponsor.
This would be the best way to do it IMO. As for other assets, we have VTV banners and posters that TF.TV don't have, but could make I suppose.

ArieGetting ahead of things here...but oh well....
I'm warming to the idea of doing it on the tf.tv stream. We'll probably be shutting down both VTF2 and VTV after i52 anyway, so kinda silly to have people watch a stream that won't be back.
Now I am rather fond of the VTV assets, the HUD, the scoreboard, overlays, the bird and such, so would love to see that again for the i52 stream, especially as its swan song.
Things were looking quite grim a few weeks ago. Taking stock of what we could bring for i52, both in people and resources, we were quite sure we couldn't put on anything like the i49 show. After reaching out to tf.tv EU to see if they'd might want to run it instead, it turned it out they were in no position to do it either.
The recent preliminary meeting has me in a positive mood though. We're looking good in terms of gear, OK-ish on casters, OK-ish on number of production crew. I mean we're asking 2 Americans to fly over just so we have enough people that know how to computer, that's how desperate EU casting situation seems to be atm.
Also, it would be nice to find people for:- Basic photoshopping for the overlay images. Nothing fancy, just changing caster photos and team names. That kind of stuff. Might not even have to be on site to do that. Anything random we might need on stream on short notice.
- On-screen talent. Bonus points if you know the game, can look in a camera and ask good short questions. (I <3 you byte, but look in the goddamn camera)
What Arie said, although I can do a good presentation job if I didn't have to manage alot on my plate... done it many a times on grand final stage :P
But yes if we have a dedicated presenter we'd gladly welcome him/her if they can help out. VanillaTV will be closing down unless a suitable figure can continue on the legacy and manage such a volunteer org. If not then the TF2 scene 'should' be in safe hands with TF.TV =)
We have a line up as Arie mentioned for casters/techies and so on, so just stringing that all together with Multiplay, by hopefully end of play July.
I'll update you all in this thread at the end of the month.

make this a 3 team effort? Get some eXtv assets?
make this a 3 team effort? Get some eXtv assets?
As for the assets, I am totally fine with streaming the entire weekend on TF.TV's stream.
Main reasons:
- It's way more active
- It's 'internationalized' so everyone knows about the org on a global scale.
So it would be smart to stick with the tf.tv stream, however I/we want and AFAIK it has been agreed with Enigma that we'd used VTV assets/resources in all cases.
TF.TV still gets even more exposure by being on their stream, money from all the viewers and so on, is more than they could hope for considering we have the pitch :P
Either way bottom line is that it makes way more sense to be on TF.TV's stream as VanillaTV is shutting down after i52, which will be mentioned @ grand final.
Hope this concludes all conceptions of HUD's/splashes any other asset related visual aspect!

As far as VTV/TFTV 'assets' go, the one thing I think should be changed from i49 is casters. Is there any chance of cbear/bloodsire/marxist? I hope lange will be sent, if so can he cast with sean? If yuki is willing to cast when he's not playing could that happen? Maybe return of djc to cast his old r5 buddy?

I personally can't stand Byte's casting because I feel he interjects "oooooohhhhhs" and "they shouldn't be doing thiiiissssss" like every other sentence but to each his own.

The players will be too busy playing and working out strategies and stuff when they don't have games on to cast, I don't think yuki will want to gimp his team just to get his voice on the stream lol

If we manage to get Lange there (looking likely), I'd love to hear at least one game casted by him. I know hes gonna be doing a lot of shit behind the scenes, but a man can dream.

I have to respectfully disagree. I understand that you're quite attached to them but the TFTV hud looks much cleaner and doesn't take up as much screen real estate.
Screenshots for comparison.
VanillaTV
TFTV
Because changing the size of a hud is literally the most difficult thing to do.
Because that's literally the only thing I said.
Because I was implying that?
Here's a comparision if you don't understand what i mean.

Some constructive criticism: Since the tftv HUD is the one that will still be used after i52 it would make sense to improve it instead of the vtv one and use it for i52. All of this is subjective though.
- I'd prefer the class pictures without the border.
- POV players team colour next to the name instead of a bar below.
- Please line up the health and playername.
- The overall team health bars could be integrated.

Amazing, I love the generosity of the TF2 community!

It would be fantastic to see more Streaming action of 4G and Mixup until i52.
Considering the community pulled 13,000$ out of their pockets, it would be a way to give back to the community. They dont have to all Stream, but one player per team per night seems to be a minimum.
Also, when are those support badges gonna be displayed on the forums?
Cheers and #hype
