Obviously this is all subjective but imo Venus part 1 and Blaze are the best videos hands down. Although maybe it's just because I found those the most inspiring and "grew up" with them while I was learning to edit. There have been lots of tf2 editors throughout it's history but I've always felt Goo and Uil in particular have both got this really iconic nature that nobody has been able to replicate. This is true for Nick as well but obviously his iconic style is very different and further separated from the traditional idea of a fragvid.

Sorry for rambling, love these discussions though.

LOL genuinely the best team name I've heard in a while.

I know Mould has already commented but I will shed some light on the maps you mentioned as well. I did want to put the effort in to make them playable a while ago but these were my reasons for not doing it:

1. In most cases we had to decompile the maps to edit them, which messes with the collision and other things.
2. Those maps don't look nearly as good in game as they do in the video even with high settings.
3. In general we only edited the areas of the map that were in shot, so it was only ever half-done. I think I actually did the whole of product though, but I had to use viaduct pro RC7 because that's the only one that works in SFM.

I can only comment on what we did a while ago, and there are incredibly talented people working on those refresh projects so i don't doubt they could do something like this given the time, but hopefully that sheds some light on many of the difficulties we were having before.

i'd love to make a video for this if people record and submit demos. hopefully it'd be a nice dedication to yomps.

Nice video. Hopefully this will bring some recognition to Hyce, who is by far one of the most dedicated mappers I've ever seen.

Depends what you want to do really. If you want to just make normal videos then Resolve is a good option if you're not looking to spend. If you want to make fancy TF2 fragvideos/edits and the like you'll need AE (or Vegas if you prefer but that's less popular among tf2 editors than AE).

So sorry to hear you've been through so much pain, and well done for sharing your story. It sounds like you've had an extremely rough time and although my word won't mean much, trust me when I say things can only get better now that you're on your meds, even if that may seem difficult to believe right now. Wishing you the best of luck brother.

Thanks to nick (and more recently Uil) for making me a better editor every day with their advice. I have managed to improve my editing considerably over the last couple of years as a result.

that's correct but there's further evidence as well being presented. still early days ofc.

edit: the below is quite clearly fake

this is potentially a working proof of concept of RCE being performed on a client PC, but could of course be fake. definitely stay away from servers for now if you're concerned.

don't get me wrong I wasn't dismissing this advice, with something like this you can never be too careful. I would just appreciate any information that can be provided at this stage so that we can ascertain whether these are rumours or whether this vulnerability does exist.

is there a POC for this supposed RCE vuln anywhere? I haven't seen any evidence that it even exists yet.

mine is wrong rip

lawena's "killfeed only" option is actually just a hud with everything except the killfeed turned off so you could just replace the killfeed files with one from another hud to have whatever killfeed you'd like.

you're wishing death on someone because you don't agree with their politics? truly goes to show what the political climate is like nowadays....
