if the only bit of content we've seen out of valve so far for this entire update is pretty mediocre, it really isn't doing a good job of quelling the fear that the rest of the update will be mediocre, too

some of the maps look neat, but they're community-created so that doesn't speak to the quality of the rest of the update.

obviously we'll have to wait and see, but... it's not a good sign imo.

maybe i'm picky because i've used SFM extensively?

expiration date had noticeably better lighting, model quality, and overall animation quality, let alone a real plot

fuck dude even the love and war 30 second clip was better quality

look I'm hoping the update is good, I really really want it to be, but it's pretty obvious the people that worked on TF2 shorts in the past are long gone now

the lighting in the jungle scene was mediocre at best, all the characters besides scout and hale just reused ingame voice lines, and the yeti model is absolutely atrocious

it feels like it wasn't ready but they had to roll with it

tbh the short is pretty low quality

The issue is that Valve's studiomdl and vpk (but mainly studiomdl) binaries don't exist for OS X or Linux. They're 100% a required step for customization. There's nothing I can do about that besides build it for you and give you the instructions on how to install it - or you could just do it yourself on a Windows install and copy it over.

Doublecheck your autoexec. The installer modifies it. Might have removed something unintentionally.

Wow this is like really good. Blizzard-style in talking about the issue, goal for improvement, and changes.

to be fair now we have what's basically a changelist

except for pyro...

Don't forget he has Portland's tastiest balls.

TAKE CARE, COMB YA HAIR

Shit I miss Kip

sounds about right

Basically, instead of zeroing out the root bone, I zeroed out the bip_weapon bone, so the weapon model that gets inserted into the hand disappears (moves offscreen to -100,0)

Do you have multiple GPUs? For instance, Optimus on a laptop, or Lucid Virtu on a desktop?

Game Capture doesn't work correctly if the game is being rendered with a different GPU than the one trying to capture it.

Does this tabbing happen after extended play sessions of other games, too?

Sounds to me like an external program causing it.

On a serious note if this map looks anything like the screenshot this would be an amazing scene for SFM

"crawl" literally just means "duck + move".

the Sprint button is more eggregious
