| − | == Updating the taunt pages == | + | {{Talk archive |

| | + | }} |
| | | | |
| − | So we need to update the class taunt pages that don't have the high-fives. [[User:Shine|Anyone who is good with images]] wanna take a crack at that? If not, I'll work on it this weekend. -- [[User:En_Ex|En Ex]] <sub>([[User_talk:En_Ex|talk]])</sub> 18:07, 2 November 2010 (UTC)
| + | == Additional kill taunt name == |
| | | | |
| | + | In addition to the other kill taunts, the Scorch Shot's kill taunt name is simply listed as "Scorch shot". I think I'll move everything, similarly to the other kill taunts, to the most official name we have for it. Unless the taunt is name directly mentioned somewhere.<br>[[File:BLU Wiki Cap.png|20px|link=List of Wiki Cap owners]] | [[Help:Group rights|<span style="color:green;font-family:TF2 Build;">s</span>]] | [[User:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">GrampaSwood</font>]] [[File:PraisetheSun.png|20px|alt=Praise the Sun!]] ([[User talk:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">talk</font>]]) ([[Special:Contributions/GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">contribs</font>]]) 13:47, 14 January 2024 (UTC) |

| − | A question, wouldn't the Sandvich taunt be considered a special taunt, like Oktoberfest? [[User:Justin8|Justin8]] 12:56, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
| + | == Issues with the Class taunts pages == |
| | | | |
| − | == Amputator's healing taunt ==
| + | The first issue is how long they're getting, both when viewing and when editing. This can be minimized, in my opinion, by transferring the voice lines and associated sound effects of special taunts from those pages to the respective taunt pages and leaving only short descriptions of the animations. Would this create an inconsistency with the weapon taunts, which would keep the voice lines and sound effects? Yes, it would, but considering we have taunts with long descriptions like the [[Scout taunts#Burstchester|Burstchester]] and the [[Engineer taunts#Dueling Banjo|Dueling Banjo]], I think it's worth it. |
| | | | |
| − | Should the Amputator's taunt be classified as a Special Taunt? Given that it has an additional ability very similar to (and definitely more powerful than) the Kritzkrieg's taunt, one would think it would fit right in even though it's visually identical to the Bonesaw/Vitasaw's taunt. -- [[User:KaiserYoshi|KaiserYoshi]] 09:45, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
| + | The second issue is finding the taunts when viewing the pages - specially when starting from the articles for all-class special taunts, which just say "For the voice lines and animations of each class, please refer to the respective class taunts pages" with a generic link to [[Taunts#Taunts by class]] and leave the reader to their luck when finding that taunt among the other 6<!--Engineer exclusive--> to 24<!--all class--> special taunts. |
| | | | |
| − | ==Videos==
| + | Although the class taunts pages have anchors for each kill and special taunt, these are currently unused as far as I know. I've created a template that would use them to properly link readers to that taunt in the desired class' taunts page, which can be found [[User:BrazilianNut/Sandbox/Template:All-class_taunt|here]], but it's still a project page and has not been "officialized". |
| − | Does anyone really need ''four'' videos to illustrate the exact same set of taunts? [[User:Hostile Companion Cube|Hostile Companion Cube]] <sup>Roar</sup> 05:55, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
| |
| − | :Was about to pull this to attention. This is what the crap wiki does, they have a multitude of videos all of the same thing on the same page. Anyways, the unused guitar taunt is should go on the [[Dischord]] page itself. We should keep if any, one of the high five videos, and get an AA image for the bottle taunt to go on the bottle page. Just an ideal way to fix things. Any other ideas people? -= [[User:M-NINJA|<font color="Blue">'''M-NINJA'''</font>]] [[File:Burger_Gib.png|24px|link=User_talk:M-NINJA]] =- 02:27, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

| | | | |
| − | ==Possible use of High Five?==
| + | One solution would be making each special taunt a subsection of the section it can be found in. This, however, would create some very long TOCs while we're trying to ''shorten'' these articles (the Scout alone has 14 unique special taunts + 24 special taunts + the Neck Snap). |
| − | Recently, I was parked in a corner, when a Demoman walks up and taunts. This somehow triggered the high five animations. I'm thinking it's some sort of mod, but if it's not, it may be worth adding.[[User:Gigaspine7|Gigaspine7]] 21:11, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
| |
| | | | |
| − | Same here, but I had a high-five when me and Soldier were in front of each other and taunting simultaneously. Have to check on couple of different servers to see if it's a mod or not.
| + | One thing we could<strike> steal </strike>borrow from [https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Main_Page the Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages] is horizontal TOCs, like the one seen on [https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Online:Mementos this page] or the one seen on [https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Online:Mementos/Events this page] (which I prefer). |

| − | == Must have ammo? == | + | :With how there is a constant stream of new taunts coming in, it's fine to change how they are treated compared to weapon taunts. I'd be for adding the voice lines and such to the individual articles instead. Finding taunts is (imo) solved by just ctrl + f. I'm not sure I follow the second request, though. We can just use anchors and a semicolon to mimic headers without them being on the TOC.<br>[[File:BLU Wiki Cap.png|20px|link=List of Wiki Cap owners]] {{!}} [[Help:Group rights|<span style="color:green;font-family:TF2 Build;">s</span>]] {{!}} [[User:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">GrampaSwood</font>]] [[File:PraisetheSun.png|20px|alt=Praise the Sun!]] ([[User talk:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">talk</font>]]) ([[Special:Contributions/GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">contribs</font>]]) 16:47, 31 October 2024 (UTC) |
| | | | |
| − | Why to include that? Everyone knows that if you don't have ammo you can't exuip the weapon. Besides you can do the taunt with no ammo. Shoot your last bullet and then quickly press g before the game switches your weapons. There should just be a trivia section explaining that in the bottom of the article. --[[User:SandeProElite|SandeProElite]] 17:14, 22 March 2011 (UTC)
| + | ::I'm not a fan of making readers depend on a function of their web browser (Ctrl + F) that they might not know exists in order to find something when we can have that something in the TOC, but if we transfer the voice lines and sound effects to the individual taunt articles, adding the taunts to the TOC might simply not be needed. As for the semicolon to mimic headers, I think that would be a bit redundant if we're counting on readers using Ctrl + F to find the taunts since each taunt box already has the "Associated item(s)" column that names the taunt. - [[User:BrazilianNut|BrazilianNut]] ([[User talk:BrazilianNut|talk]]) 17:21, 31 October 2024 (UTC) |

| − | Take a look at the videos on the class specific taunt articles (let's use the [[Soldier taunts]] as an example). I suggest that we remove these as the individual taunts are demonstrated on a per-weapon basis and therefore in more depth by the weapon demonstration project.

Therefore, I would like request that "Taunt kill" is entirely acceptable and should ''not'' be changed to "Kill taunt" just because. Agree?

The page defines it as an attack that deals 500+ damage, however, taunts such as the Eureka Effect taunt, Mmmph, Oktoberfest, and the Medicating Melody do no damage by themselves. Additionally, other "special" taunts that grant some sort of passive ability are missing such as the Heavy nomming his Sandvich and the Scout drinking animations. As it stands, the table needs to be reordered with new categories.

I propose that we rename the Action Taunts section to Special Taunts, as they're no longer equipped in the Action slot, but rather their own designated Taunt slot (and the fact that that's what their item type is depicted as), and think of a different name to label the current Special Taunts section as. I was thinking of something along the lines of Kill Taunts at first, but not all of them are kill taunts; they just all do something beneficial in the game. -[[User:MarioMaster2008|MarioMaster2008]] ([[User talk:MarioMaster2008|talk]]) 21:04, 23 June 2014 (PDT)

| − | :I think Action Taunts should be renamed to Special Taunts for the same reasons: that's their item type, and they no longer go in the Action slot.

Same thing here: these taunts used to be equipped in the Action Slot, but now have their own slots and are called Special Taunts by the game. Shouldn't consistency with the game be prioritized over "sounding better" (which is most likely simply due to being used to them being called that)?
| |

| − | :I propose these changes:
| |

| − | :Reasons:
| |
| − | :# "Taunt kill" seems more like it's referring to the death caused by a taunt than to a taunt that can kill. It would also be more consistent with Special Taunts and most likely whatever name we gave to #2 (Action Taunts, Effect Taunts etc).

They can deal 400 [[damage]] or more, having the potential to kill any opponent in a single hit (with the exception of [[Armageddon]] and [[Execution]], which can only deal a maximum of 400 damage and thus are not powerful enough to kill a [[Heavy]] with maximum [[overheal]]).

| |
| − | :Special Taunts are [[items]] that can be equipped from the player's [[Backpack]] in the [[loadout]] screen. Once a class has a Special Taunt equipped, pressing {{key|G}} will bring up the taunt menu, allowing them to perform the taunt of their choice; pressing {{key|G}} again will have the player perform the regular taunt for the active weapon (if it has one). Each class can equip up to 8 Special Taunts.

| − | I've just gone to the action taunt's page and noticied that it's marked that taunts can have a craft number.

| |
| − | '''{{Patch name|6|23|2014}}'''
| |
| − | * {{undocumented}} Set all [[taunts]] to be [[Gift Wrap|giftable]], [[Name Tag|nameable]], and have [[Crafting|craft numbers]].
| |
| − | | |
| − | In the game we can see that the taunts are craftable, but is there any plan to craft them ?

| |
| − | : There's no way to craft taunts as it currently stands. Valve would have to add in a blueprint for that. An item can have craft numbers even if there isn't a blueprint for it, or if it isn't craftable at all. All three of these things are separate settings in the schema. --[[User:Omolong|Omolong]] ([[User talk:Omolong|talk]]) 08:11, 22 November 2014 (PST)

| − | | |
| − | The only information that can be found here and not on those pages is duration, which can easily be moved over while being more precise (i.e. having the specific duration for each class in all-class taunts with a variable duration, like the Schadenfreude, instead of just "Variable").

| − | == Kill taunt names ==
| |
| − | So recently I may have found some of the '''official''' names of some taunt kills in the code. In game\shared\tf\tf_shareddefs.cpp:L822-902, there is an array listing some custom damage types which includes some taunt attack (indicated by TAUNTATK). Some of these are just descriptions (E.g. "engineer guitar smash" or "engineer arm kill") but some actually have identifiable names such as "High noon" (presumably [[Showdown]]), "Grand Slam" (presumably [[Home Run]], or "Barbarian Swing" (presumably [[Decapitation]]). A lot of the current names are not official (at least, nothing I can find in tf_english.txt). If I find anything linking these to specific weapons, I'd say we'll have to change these names to be the official ones.<br>
| |
| − | To update: The following names would be changed.<br>
| |
| − | '''Showdown''' would become '''High Noon'''.<br>
| |
| − | '''Home Run''' would become '''Grand Slam'''.<br>
| |
| − | '''Fencing''' would stay the same.<br>
| |
| − | '''Kamikaze''' would become '''Grenade''' (I'd argue keeping the custom name is better).<br>
| |
| − | '''Decapitation''' would become '''Barbarian Swing'''.<br>
| |
| − | '''Spinal Tap''' would become '''Uberslice'''.<br>
| |

| |
| − | '''Organ Grinder''' would become either '''Arm Kill''' or '''Arm Blender''' (I vote for the 2nd one as it's more creative).<br>
| |
| − | '''Armageddon''' would stay the same.<br>
| |
| − | '''Gas Blast''' would stay the same.<br>
| |
| − | '''Execution''' would stay the same, as there is nothing I could find about that (yet).

| |
| − | : This was asked before, but I am not quickly seeing an answer: Who decided the present names?
| |

| |
| − | : To repeat, Valve open publications (what it is named in catalogs, stores, update pages, or dialogs) makes it ''official''; "in the source" just means "in the source".

However some others could just have a tooltip showing the Valve names such as grenade, barbarian swing (I like this one but I think more people would recognize it as decapitation), and guitar smash. We would need a few more people to give their opinion on this before making any changes, but I'm just throwing my opinion in the ring for now.

| |
| − | | |
| − | :: The appearance of a taunt name within leak source is evidence of that fact alone -- To extrapolate from that fact to state that those names are Valve's >official< names is [[speculation]]. ''Officially'', Valve added most of these taunts to the game without naming them; therefore, they are ''officially'' unnamed. IIUC, under this wiki's procedures a decade ago, this wiki named them, and effectively these are the ''de facto'' Community names for these items (unless the wiki had a Valve source for the wiki's names). Yes, that does put this Wiki into an interesting conundrum; officially unnamed taunts have, naturally, coverage in Valve's official ''TF'' Wiki, but under Community names. Technically (YMMV), this Wiki is a publishing arm of Valve ...

I think how much we like the unofficial names over the official names should be completely irrelevant, as long as the taunt's official name is descriptive (such as "Arrow Stab" over "Skewer") rather than something like just "Grenade" it should be used. The current ones are entirely fan-made and have been here before the wiki was moved to the current domain and can't be tracked. I'd say that '''unless a source can be found for the unofficial names, the ones from the code are seen to be official.'''

For example, every page that directs to the old names of the taunts should be replaced with the new names, the files should be moved (i.e. the kill icons), the dictionary entries should be updated. However, for the dictionary, leave the original names up and add the other names as an option (i.e. <nowiki>{{item name|Showdown}}</nowiki> should still produce "High Noon", as opposed to giving an error). For header names, such as on the strategy pages, I would recommend going with <nowiki> == {{Anchor|oldname}} [[New Name]] ==</nowiki>, so the old name still redirects there.<br>[[User:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">GrampaSwood</font>]] ([[User talk:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">talk</font>]]) 10:50, 24 September 2022 (UTC)

If it's for only 1 second, it'll last for a second only then be quiet. Although the bug guidelines mention that bugs should not involve custom files, I think this is an issue specifically with sv_pure and how it mishandles replacing the custom file with the regular one, so it should not count as being a bug with custom files (the issue is with sv_pure, rather than the custom files).
