First of all I would like to know which models are on the server
where should I post my hat if I make one?
You should attach the file to a private message and send it to Nonsense.
are we allowed to send GIF decals for an orbiting effect?
Custom Auras and Particle EffectsSince we are now shipping our own .pcf files, we can create custom particle effects (for rare hats) or easily make new auras. To do this, you can use the
engine tools.To access the tools, start TF2 with the parameter -tools, then switch to the
particle editor. There are a lot of tutorials on the web that show you how to use the particle editor. Please do keep some things in mind:
- Do not use thousands of particles. Try to limit the particle count to around 64-256 max.
- Do not submit recolored versions of TF2 item effects.
You can have a look at the itemfx.pcf file in the tf/particles folder to see how the item effects are created.
Always create a new pcf file when making a new effect; send Nonsense the pcf file via PM.
