TF2 Interactive | A Heavy's 2fort Adventure! Hey, I just got this link from a friend and it's amazing! Basically it's a choose-your-own-adventure story comprised of a series of 30sec-3min video clips all starring a Blu Heavy. Great fun and very well put together. I found myself going through all the "wrong" pathways just so I could see all the video clips. There's also a "Do it live" version you can play when its finished that has some people "live" narrating it and is equally as funny. Enjoy!

Lol... a gun with "naughty bits." http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/57-Painkiller Also, as to using the Pyro maining shotgun with airblast as second... could you set up a simple console script that would, when right clicking with the shotgun equipped, switch to flamethrower, airblast, then switch back to shotgun? Seems reasonable with what I know about the console scripting.

Anybody else wondering how they added "jiggle bones" to guns? How much does the hard metal really "jiggle"?

Curses! I have no fancy hat yet enjoy regularly spying it up. Looks like I'll have to pursue one. In other news, I bought the newest Sam & Max game and got the TF2 exclusives. The pistols you get are basically skins for the Spy's revolver and the Scout's pistol. Playing with the revolver again (as apposed to the Ambassador) makes me realize just how good it really is. I get crits more often with it than I ever got headshots with the Ambassador! Guess I just wasn't good enough.

well excuse me... I thought it was still hip and cool to use these internet words. I'm only looking for the acceptance of my peers! Boo hoo hoo! Q_Q No, lol, jk. I agree that it can be annoying, too. As long as its in moderation, I can put up with most web meme-ery.

How about this... :ahem: "Gentlemen, I found this to be relatively entertaining and believe it will be worth your time to investigate."

Hey, just had a cool idea... what would you guys think about a Windows desktop widget that tracked certain things on HLstatsX (such as certain server population, players, map, etc) or give you similar results for a server as when one of your friends is in a game? This would be a lot easier than loading up the entire game. Seemed like a cool idea to me. Couldn't find anything online to that end, though. Ah, it may be that if I want one I'd have to make it myself.

Awww... I don't get to be on the list? I'm now at least in the top 100. I've been lurking on the forum for quite a while and I have to say that I approve of custom maps and nifty server plugins. School has just been very hectic for the past few weeks so I haven't been able to play for a while. T.T -Krowbar

Oh... my... word. That was a super awesome sticky/rocket jumping video. That guy has some mad skillz. I wonder how well those translate to normal gameplay, though. Would super-mobility at the price of health be worthwhile and could you consistently do it on the spot in high-pressure situations? Either way, cool vid.

Yes, welcome! A lot of the regulars are pretty good so it's nice to get some new blood... heh heh heh... -Krowbar

Well, there is always a MotD for servers... why not put a brief message about the custom achievements there?

That actually sounds really cool... why wouldn't the "regular playerbase" like something like this? As long as there aren't some retarded achievements (such as Valves achievement asking medics to kill scouts with the bonesaw) I think it would be another fun thing to add. -Krowbar

Hey guys, Krowbar here. Lately I've been mic spamming music with HLSS during games (mostly only good stuff). Anyway, I'm looking for requests now. *** Anybody have any recommendations for what to put on the playlist? *** I'm trying to compile a really solid list of OCR songs but other tunes are ok, too (eg Yackity Sax, 1812 Overture, Ride of the Valkyrie) Thanks for the feedback! Your friendly neighborhood KaptainKrowbar.

haha... had a great time tonight. so, what was the deal with the OCR:TF2 "patchs"? I'd be interested in getting one! -[LTU]Krowbar

Hey y'all, I'm sure some of you have probably already heard about this project but I thought I'd randomly throw it in there anyway... Right now the guys over at www.PokemonOnline.org are working on their own original Pokemon MMORPG and they could use help in remixing music for it. The game will encompass all the Gameboy games from Red/Blue up until the more recent ones like Diamond, Perl, etc. Since you are already working on this fine, fine project, wouldn't it be nice if you allowed them to use some/all of the final product? Be rest assured, though, that this MMO is always going to remain free (by will of the creators) so you don't have to worry about someone making profit off of your work. The only rub I see right now is that they want the remixed tracks to be in "Module Format" but if you could pull that off it'd be golden! You can read more about the plans they have for the game at: http://www.pokemononline.org/platinum/ and the request they posted here: http://www.pokemononline.org/forum/showpost.php?p=118931&postcount=32 This looks promising, so you should go over and give it a peek, k? Right now they're at version 0.6 and plan to have v1.0 out somewhere between 2008-2010.

Found it here: http://ocremix.org/forums/showthread.php?t=4733 Thanks! I'll see if they're interested... ^-^ CLOSE THREAD, PLEASE!

I'm sorry, but was that supposed to be a link or just bold and underlined? As to "here" do you mean OCRemix? I tried to do a quick search of the forums and didn't find anything permanent.

Pokemon has always had a certain place in all of our hearts growing up. Remember the hours and hours you spent catching, then raising your little brood of monsters into killing machines to take on the Elite Four (or their comparable replacements) in each game? Well, how about doing that again, but as a MMO? Right now the guys over at www.PokemonOnline.org are working on their own original Pokemon MMORPG and they could use help in remixing/composing music for it. The game will encompass all the Gameboy games from Red/Blue up until the more recent ones like Diamond/Perl, Fire Red/Leaf Green, etc. You can read more about the plans they have for the game at: http://www.pokemononline.org/platinum/ and they request they posted here: http://www.pokemononline.org/forum/showpost.php?p=118931&postcount=32 This looks promising, so you should go over and give it a peek, k?

I don't know if anyone aggrees with me, but everytime I hear this song it just screams at me "LYRICS!! PLEASE, I WANT SOME LYRICS!!" This song is totally freakin' awesome, but I feel that if Ailsean puts in lyrics and maybe lengthens it a bit it would be twice as nice.

hmm, using iTunes and seeding shouldn't be a problem UNLESS you accidently tell iTunes to "automatically rename all music files to corespond to library arangement" or something like that which really screws up the OCremix stuff since there are literally hundreds of artists and under their schema each one gets a folder and it makes it a hassle to work with! I re-downloaded everything (with bit torrent this time) and now have for 0-500 a 218% share percentage, 501-100 is at 165% and 1001-1250 is at 212% and each is steadly increasing! Yah! I'm finally giving back to the community! Gah!! I only got at a pathetic 5 or so kB/s! Just wait till I get the correct ports open! *Then* I'll be able to really cruise!
