You're saying this as if there were loads of demomen for them to choose from that they knew/liked enough to play with, let alone travel abroad and compete with. Even if there were people they liked, who says they would have gotten any meaningful practice with someone they hadn't played with before? Everyone on the team pretty much knew war to some extent so, being pushed for time, he was the logical choice.

Sam and Kiler definitely wanna make something happen, so there should be some form of suave at dhs.

Yeah some people may think it's shitty by them, but at the end of the day if the current prem teams are getting beaten by a bunch of inactive, albeit very good, players then they don't really deserve the money. It's nice having all these games to cast/watch but if the desire was that the top active teams attend the LAN without the chance of people choking 4 tournaments in a row (Publiclir), the money should have just been given to the teams. Then have showmatches or something to promote the tournament.

"28-29 may"

Just checking, do you mean August?

I think Sidestep took his PC apart and just reassembled it once he got there, I think you can take most of it in a carry on and you could even forego taking a case and yolo it.

The name of it is Garmen Q-M, I have it but not updated that I can upload. It needs updating since gunmettle I think.

Yeah man I had figured that much out, as is in my video, I'm pretty happy with the progress I made there.

Yeah turns out that, in the mannterface at least, it's not a drawcolor, it's a different vtf used for the overheal colour, meaning that having just a blank overheal one with 0 alpha won't work. Unless I missed a way of specifying colours, and I tried pretty much every way there is, as far as I know at least. Cheers though man.

Edit: Forgot to link the final files.

I've made a small hud mod that is basically an attempt to copy the tftv spec HUD. There is a video of my version in action here.

Thanks to Wiethoofd I've gotten it about as close to the tftv one as I can atm. If people wanna mess around with it/use it you can find the relevant files here.

If anyone gets it working properly give me a shout please, I'd be interested in how it works, especially as I'm pretty sure the tftv one is kept private or w/e.

Check out post #151 on page 5.

Edit: Meant #141, my bad.

Not much tbh, new source scheme, some different colours, targetIDs and damage numbers I think.

Sure you have cl_use_tournament_specgui 1 in autoexec or console or w/e?

Necroing this with a bump to say it's updated for mm and stuff now. Link here.

In the bonus pulse and dying pulse parts of hudanimations there's an alpha animation for the crosses, comment those out with "//" at the start of the line.

Sorry for the spam but I've done another small update to make the adv spec hud look a bunch more like the tftv one. As in it now has the bars on buff/low health. I probably won't be making any more updates/changes until valve royally fudges something up.
