Title: Jobs for members! (With rewards)
Post by: nonSENSE on February 11, 2012, 10:23:00 AM
There are a lot of things that need to be done around MoronYard and since we are only 2 coders sharing the workload, I decided that Stebbzor and I needed to focus on the key features that need to be worked on.

I have compiled a list of things that can be done by our community members to help us out:



More community hats

Here are a few TF2 hats that I would love to have on the servers;

Conquistador (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Conquistador) - added & paid
Jumper's Jeepcap (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Jumper%27s_Jeepcap) - added & paid
Bolgan (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Bolgan) - added & paid
Buccaneer's Bicorne (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Buccaneer's Bicorne) - added & paid
Glengarry Bonnet (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Glengarry Bonnet) - doesn't work
War Head (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/War Head)
Dragonborn Helmet (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Dragonborn Helmet) - added & paid
Warsworn Helmet (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Warsworn Helmet) - added & paid
Killer Exclusive (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Killer Exclusive) - added & paid

For each of these you will receive a personalized, community version of said hat, along with the following items:

  •                            
                       
                       

If you have other ideas for TF2 hats that would be great to have in the game, let me know and I will add them to the list.

To create any of these hats, have a look at this tutorial. (http://moronyard.com/forums/index.php?topic=737.0)




Custom Auras and Particle Effects

Since 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:
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; post the pcf file in the item submission thread (http://moronyard.com/forums/index.php?topic=384.0).

If I like the effect, I will add it to the servers and you will receive:

  •                            
                       
                       

with your effect. This can be applied to any hat or attachment that is craftable, can be rare and doesn't have an effect yet.

In case of an aura, you will receive a community version of it.

While I love the idea of having the Djinn Lamp as an attachment in-game, I cannot use the data you sent me. Attachments that are supposed to be attached to the hip also need to be parented to that bone, so they move along with it. You forgot to the change the parent :(.
Title: Re: Jobs for members! (With rewards)
Post by: Jequito on February 13, 2012, 09:20:43 PM
Same with the boom box and stuff? Just tell me and il redo them. List out all the errors.
Title: Re: Jobs for members! (With rewards)
Post by: nonSENSE on February 13, 2012, 10:01:44 PM
Hats / Attachments need to be parented the bone they should along to. Hats obviously are parented to the head; the croco shield / wings are parented to 1 bone of the spine. The Djinn Lamp should be parented to the hip or waist.

What about the boom box? Is the head ok for that?

Title: Re: Jobs for members! (With rewards)
Post by: nonSENSE on April 18, 2012, 09:51:42 PM
Don't bother with the bonnet; it won't be included as the shape of the hat will not fit on all player models.
Title: Re: Jobs for members! (With rewards)
Post by: khalum777 on April 18, 2012, 09:53:56 PM
So you won't mind if I make the other 3?
Title: Re: Jobs for members! (With rewards)
Post by: FatalWulf on April 18, 2012, 10:21:01 PM
Well i shouldve read that, before i resized the bonnet :( can i have a chance at a different Model?
Title: Re: Jobs for members! (With rewards)
Post by: FatalWulf on April 18, 2012, 10:22:45 PM
Id like a chance at some other hat since i didnt get to read your post nonsense, after resizing the bonnet to alot of models..

Better yet is the Dragonborn up for grabs?

Calm down.. it doesn't matter who finishes first. It's just which hat is better.

It would be nice if people who submitted hats that weren't up to par got a response back if they were rejected and then either A. Were told to fix x problem with the placement(s) or B. Told that a better submission was chosen for that hat.

People probably don't like being left in the dark for several weeks.
Title: Re: Jobs for members! (With rewards)
Post by: nonSENSE on April 24, 2012, 01:04:59 PM
While I would love to get back to everybody who submitted a hat in the past few weeks, it is simply not feasible. On average, I get about 15 submissions per week, many of which I still have not had time to check out.

This is a general guideline:

If your hat has not been added to the server:

If the submission has poor quality but I still want to add the hat to the server, I will get back to you and ask if you want to improve it.
Title: Re: Jobs for members! (With rewards)
Post by: Stebbzor on April 24, 2012, 01:08:22 PM
People who submit hats are contacted through PM or Steam if their hats get accepted, and if nonSENSE isn't responding to threads its most likely cause he's busy. He spends a lot of his free time making updates for the servers and he appreciates all of your help but you just have to give him some time. (Especially since now is the time exams start)
Title: Re: Jobs for members! (With rewards)
Post by: Willdy on April 24, 2012, 01:23:21 PM
Slight follow on to the above posts, if you have any questions then please feel free to ask me on steam, via PM or right here and I will try my best to reply to you, this will allow Nonsense more spare time to update the servers and do the jobs which is required to do an an Owner.

Here is a few questions  I made up and have given some answers for. If your question is here, please don't post it.

I didn't recieve any items for making the hat?
This means you are still to be issued the items, or you will not be recieving them. You should wait and see what happens in the future, by complaining you will only clog up the process.

Do you want me to make XXXXX?
You can make any hats you wish to make, but please makesure they fit the guidelines!

What do I get?
The sense of achievment of knowing you helped the server, you also get a sparkling version of your hat!

My hat hasn't been added?
You should give it some time, as Nonsense has already said, you will be notified if your hat could be improved. If it is not added, and you are not replied to, your hat is not possible for the server.

@Nonsense - If you wanted, you could forward me a short list of people names and what you want them to do then I will send out the messages.
Title: Re: Jobs for members! (With rewards)
Post by: nonSENSE on April 24, 2012, 01:50:25 PM
On second thought, I have decided that any submissions should be posted in this thread in a new post (http://moronyard.com/forums/index.php?topic=384.0). Do not send me or upload the __compiled.txt file, simply paste the contents into a post with code tags around them:

Code: [Select]
Content goes here
This will make it easier for me to keep track of items and other users can see which items have already been submitted.

Post by: Stebbzor on April 24, 2012, 07:40:12 PM
I just noticed me and nonSENSE replied at almost the same time, I didnīt see his post when I was writing mine.

I don't know how to do .txt files and things, but however
I would like the Troublemaker's Tossle Cap to be added, my favorite hat in TF2.
Image : http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Troublemaker's_Tossle_Cap
If the hat was going to be added, I hope it actually fits every model's head.

I have been working on particle effects for a few days, and here are some I have worked on.


I made 4 lightning effects, there are two variations of it. They are both slightly different in each way, but each one has a blue and a red lightning ball. This is meant to be an unusual effect.

I made a orbiting money sign, this spawns about 3-4 money signs that spin and orbit around the players hat. This is meant to be an unusual effect.

I made a scary aura, and a star aura. The scary aura I guess is a little too late for halloween, but you could still add it in. It is ghosts floating around in a circle with a blue trail trailing them.

The star aura is has about 3-5 stars rotating and floating around in a circle, with a yellow trail following them.

The links don't appear to work :(. Also, this should go in the Item Submissions thread.
