Jobs for members! (With rewards)

[nonSENSE]

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 - added & paid
Jumper's Jeepcap - added & paid
Bolgan - added & paid
Buccaneer's Bicorne - added & paid
Glengarry Bonnet - doesn't work
War Head
Dragonborn Helmet - added & paid
Warsworn Helmet - added & paid
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.



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:

• 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; post the pcf file in the item submission thread.

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 .

[Jequito]

Same with the boom box and stuff? Just tell me and il redo them. List out all the errors.

[nonSENSE]

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.

[Jequito]

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

[theepicpanda]

oh well i can code basic stuff but i am more of a admin. if you need a good admin im your man also some basic stuff coded

Updated first post.

Do you still need these?
Glengarry Bonnet
War Head
Dragonborn Helmet
Warsworn Helmet

[FatalWulf]

dont know if they are still avaliable but im working on the glengarry bonnet. Jequito Steala!

[nonSENSE]

Don't bother with the bonnet; it won't be included as the shape of the hat will not fit on all player models.

[khalum777]

So you won't mind if I make the other 3?
