'''TF2Ware''' is a custom [[SourceMod]] game mode and accompanying map that emulated the gameplay style of the ''[[Wikipedia:Warioware|WarioWare]]'' game series on Nintendo consoles. The modification was created by [http://steamcommunity.com/id/mechallamabutler Mecha the Slag], known for various other [http://mechaware.net/ MechaWare] projects.

'''TF2Ware''' is a custom [[SourceMod]] game mode and accompanying map that emulates the gameplay style of the ''[[Wikipedia:Warioware|WarioWare]]'' game series on Nintendo consoles. The modification was created by [http://steamcommunity.com/id/mechatheslag Mecha the Slag]. Two years after Mecha stopped developing the project, [http://steamcommunity.com/id/ipermegapippo TonyBaretta] created a new version with over 50 games.

The gameplay within the map involves all players participating in randomly chosen "microgames", simple tasks with short instructions and a duration of less than 5 seconds. Players are automatically changed to the class the microgame (or their role within the microgame) requires, were generally forced to wield a specific weapon (or whatever was currently in the required slot), and did not have any ammunition or could not melee unless the microgame required it. Players earn one point per microgame that they "won", and as soon as one player has 18 points, a Boss Stage began – which is longer (about one minute on average) and slightly more complex than the normal microgames, and always has a dedicated environment within the map. The player with the most points following a Boss Stage is given free rein to kill all other players on the stage, after which the flow of gameplay is looped and everybody's score reset to 0.

The most current version of the map is TF2Ware_Test34.

The most recent version of the map is <code>TF2Ware2_a4</code>.

The gameplay speedup element of TF2Ware was accomplished through use of the <code>host_timescale</code> command. The underlying code of the command was altered at one point, forcing the server to be less secure in order to run the mod properly - the server would be exposed to hostile takeovers. As a result, TF2Ware's development came to a halt, and servers running it are next to impossible to find. Mecha claims "there is, currently, no sight of a future fix"<ref>http://steamcommunity.com/groups/TF2Ware/announcements/detail/1371567368131532689</ref>, leaving the mod (and its sequel "TF2Ware:DIY") in hiatus. However, recently the gamemode has been fixed and is playable again, though some mini-games no longer work.

=== Special rounds ===
 +
Special rounds are activated when the words 'SPECIAL MODE!' appear across the screen. These real special rounds include:
  
−
== Microgames ==
+
*'''Don’t Score!''' Players are challenged to not score any points. The winner will be the player with the least amount of points.
−
*'''Airblast''': Everyone is a [[Pyro]] with a standard [[Flamethrower]] that can only [[compression blast|air blast]]. They are teleported to a small arena with instant-kill spike walls on all sides. They must survive by air blasting enemy Pyros into one of the spiked walls. Any surviving Pyros are awarded a point. Killing enemy Pyros will not award any additional points.
+
*'''Single Player''' Players are invisible to one another.
−
:*'''Tips''': Hold down '''MOUSE2''' and try to get as far from the spiked walls as possible.
+
*'''Third Person''' Every player is now in thirdperson.
−
 
+
*'''BONK''' Every player now has the Scout's Bat, allowing them to push enemy players.
−
*'''Avoid the Kamikaze''': One player becomes the [[Scout]] with a low-fuse timebomb attached to them. Their goal is to "blow up" at least two [[Heavy|Heavies]] (the class all other players are changed to) by being close to them when the timebomb goes off. The Scout is awarded a point for 2 or more deaths besides their own, and all surviving Heavies also earn a point.
+
*'''Fov Experience''' Every player has their field of view set to 110.
−
:*'''Tips''': As the Scout, look at where a cluster of Heavies are at and try to round them up into a corner instead of rushing straight at them. As a Heavy, go to the Scout's starting point as most people will immediately run away from there.
+
*'''x2''' The round is twice its normal speed.
−
 
 
−
*'''Break a Barrel''': Everyone is a Scout and wields their [[Bat]]. Breakable barrel props appear all around the arena, and players must break at least one barrel using melee attacks to earn a point. It is possible to kill any other player if you melee them fast enough before the timer expires. There are always fewer barrels than there are players.
 
−
 
 
−
*'''Don't Move''': Exactly as the name says, you must not move after the instructions have been on-screen for one second until the microgame ends. Players may [[taunt]] and look around without incurring a loss. Anybody who moves is killed instantly and doesn't earn a point.
 
−
 
 
−
*'''Don't Stop Moving''': The opposite of Don't Move with an identical early "safe period". Collision with enemy players is enabled to make this microgame harder. Anybody who stops moving is killed instantly and doesn't earn a point. Sudden changes in direction can count as not moving.
 
−
 
 
−
*'''Get on a Platform''': Of the nine square platforms in the default arena, all but a few (1-4) are removed, and lethal water begins pouring in. Players have a short amount of time to jump onto a platform before the water rises, and surviving players are given a point. To stop players from double jumping to get around the game's objective, any Scouts are turned into Demomen when the game starts. It is sometimes possible to win with a timed jump anyway.
 
−
 
 
−
*'''Get to the End''': Everyone is a Scout and gets teleported to one end of a rectangular arena with no vertical boundaries. [[Saw blades]] are arranged in an H-shape ahead of the players, who are spawned facing the arrangement from the "side". Players must reach a glowing yellow area at the far end of the area, within the time limit, to score a point.
 
−
 
 
−
*'''Hit an Enemy''': All players are changed to one of three possible class/slot combos: The [[Demoman]] with the [[bottle]] (and [[Chargin' Targe]], if equipped), the [[Engineer]] with the [[Shotgun]], or the [[Spy]] with the [[Revolver]]. They must shoot one enemy player within the time limit to score. Players may or may not be killed when shot, determined before the game starts. To reduce confusion, friendly fire is enabled.
 
−
:*'''Tips''': You will need to act fast to win this minigame. When the minigame starts, spam your primary weapon at someone and just hope that it connects, or keep shooting at a certain person before the minigame starts. If you are playing the Engineer or Spy version, [[crouch]] to make it harder for people to hit you. If you are playing the Demoman version, find someone nearby who isn't looking at you and try to hit them. As long as you hit someone, it doesn't matter if you get hit yourself. Beware if you are standing inside an ally when the minigame starts as they will be able to shoot you, and they probably will.
 
−
 
 
−
*'''Needle jump''': Based on a patched [[exploit]], everyone is a [[Medic]] who must fire their [[Syringe Gun]] while jumping and aiming at the floor to propel themselves beyond the range of numerous grounded time bombs. Survivors earn a point. It is possible to needle jump on an enemy so that they cannot move.
 
−
 
 
−
*'''Sticky jump''': Like the above, everyone is a [[Demoman]] with a [[Stickybomb Launcher]] and must execute a sticky jump to avoid grounded time bombs.
 
−
:*'''Tips''': Stickybombs will bounce off the platforms, while they may also get scattered by other players' explosions.
 
−
 
 
−
*'''Rocket jump''': Just like the sticky jump version, only everyone is a [[Soldier]] with the [[Rocket Launcher]] instead. This version provides less time to execute the jump.
 
−
 
 
−
*'''Simon Says''': In a simple adaptation of Simon Says, players must perform an action (taunting, jumping, or crouching) depending on the instruction given. If the action is performed when the instructions read "Someone Says", the player is told that they failed the microgame and are exempt from earning a point. Players can also fail if they don't act when presented with the "Simon Says" command.
 
−
:*'''Tips''': Taunting while the game has sped up a lot will cause you to taunt faster, but the length of time spent stuck in third-person mode will remain the same. Keep this in mind when the microgame asks you to taunt, as you will have less time for the next microgame.
 
−
 
 
−
*'''Type the Answer''': A simple mathematical question appears in the upper-middle of the [[HUD]] for all players, and they must type the correct answer into chat in order to score. Wrong answers result in immediate death. Negative numbers are sometimes used. Rarely, an unusual question such as "8000 + 1001" will appear.
 
−
:*'''Tips''': A quick mind is necessary in this minigame. Think quick.
 
−
 
 
−
*'''Do the Spycrab''': All players are changed to Spies with their Disguise Kit out. They have to crouch and aim up, imitating the [[Memes#Spycrab|Spycrab]] pose. Failure to do so results in player death, and no points being awarded to them. Upon failing the microgame, the words, "Spycrabs CROUCH and LOOK UP" appear in chat, to assist new players.
 
−
 
 
−
*'''Hit the Target''': All players are turned into Snipers and transported to a shooting gallery. They must try to shoot a single Heavy [[Training|target]] that appears on the field.  Failure to shoot the target will result in no points. There are no walls to this area, so several other areas are visible. This microgame is currently broken; the target will never detect that it is shot.
 
−
:*'''Tips''': The target can appear in three different spots: left, middle and right. Keep your crosshairs trained on the middle spot so that you can quickly move you crosshairs to the target and shoot accurately. Use your scope if you have to. Your reload animation does not allow you enough time to shoot again.
 
−
 
 
−
*'''Type the Word/Color''': The name of a color is displayed on the screen, with the color of the text being different than the color written. The player is prompted to either type the text written or the color of the text. An incorrect answer kills the player instantly. Possible colours are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, pink, and white.
 
−
:*'''Tips''': Looking down at the floor can allow you to truly see what color the text is. Some colors can look like others when looking at the sky. The game also allows for some error. For example, "yellwo" will still count as "yellow".
 
−
 
 
−
*'''Jump on a Heavy's Head''': One team of players are turned into Heavies, while the others are turned into Scouts.  A Scout gains a point by jumping on the head of a Heavy, while a Heavy gains a point by not being jumped on.
 
−
 
 
−
''Note: This minigame has been removed.''
 
−
 
 
−
== Boss stages ==
 
−
Any player who meets the win conditions of a Boss stage is awarded 5 points instead of 1.
 
−
 
 
−
*'''Avoid the Cuddly Heavy''': Either two or three players, depending on the total number of players, are converted into Heavies while the rest are Scouts. The environment is a large room with pink surfaces and red heart outlines. The Heavies' goal is to "hug" the Scouts to death, effectively meaning "colliding with a Scout will kill them instantly", with the Scouts trying to survive this ordeal for as long as possible. The Heavies will periodically shout modified speech files to display their affection. As the timer runs down, the walls all move steadily inwards, shrinking the size of the room until it becomes very difficult for the Scouts to dodge. If any Scouts survive, they earn points, while the entire team of Heavies earn points if no Scouts remain alive at the end.
 
−
:*'''Tips''': As a Scout, try to stay away from groups of Scouts and keep a low profile. Never try to jump over the Heavies. When there are fewer Scouts left and the room is smaller, try not to get cornered by the Heavies. As a Heavy, go for large groups of Scouts. Try to communicate with the other Heavies and try to close in on one Scout at a time.
 
−
 
 
−
*'''Reach the End (Heavy)''': Everyone is a Heavy, and they are forced to run a linear platforming obstacle course at a steady pace, due to an instant-death spikewall following behind them and a static brick wall moving ahead of them (as well as a [[Sandvich]] reward to lure them). The course's main hazard is an instant-death void that catches any players who don't remain on the platforms. Players who reach the end point alive are awarded points.
 
−
 
 
−
*'''Score 7 Goals''': Everyone is a Demoman with the [[Grenade Launcher]] selected and filled to its maximum ammo capacity. Their goal is to fire grenades into a constantly-moving basketball hoop, attached to the far wall of a large wooden room, blocked off by a fence. 7 of the player's grenades must fall into the hoops for them to earn points at the end. Attacking opponents will knock them about a bit but cannot kill them. This microgame may be made difficult if one is being crowded by players on the opposite team, as their grenades will hit them instead of going towards the hoop.
 
−
:*'''Tips''': Stand away from the other Demomen as your grenades might simply hit them. Instead of launching your grenades from a still position, try to follow the net and take your time in shooting your bombs.
 
−
 
 
−
*'''Don't Fall''': Everyone is a Spy and on platforms. The platforms fall down as the game progress. Spies are able to push each other through stabbing with their knife, and if they perform a backstab they launch their victim out of the arena, leaving them to die from the fall.
 
−
 
 
−
*'''Don't Starve''': Everyone is Pyro in an open area where they slowly lose health. There's a jumprope and a Sandvich in the middle. In order to avoid starvation, the players have to continuously stay in the center and jump over the rope.
 
−
:*'''Tips''': Jumping when the rope is 90 degrees to you will ensure you can survive. Dipping in and out of the rope will give you a little breathing time.

*'''Reach the End (Medic)''': Everyone is a frog (technically Medic) and have to play through a classic game of Frogger to win. Only players that reach the end within ten seconds of the first to complete the course get points. This microgame is played in third-person, the only one to do so.

*'''Reach the End (Soldier)''': Everyone is a Soldier, and they are forced to run a vertical obstacle course at a steady pace, due to an instant-death pool of water constantly moving upwards below them, and a brick wall moving in the same direction above. In order to reach the top of the area, players are required to rocket jump to platforms that appear as the stage progresses upwards. Shooting other players will not kill them, though it may disrupt them enough to prevent them from advancing.

−
*'''Ghostbusters''': Players are split into 3 teams: The Ghostbusters (Medics) are tasked with finding and "busting" all ghosts (Spies) in the mansion by healing them with their mediguns, while the Slimers (Heavies) attempt to kill all the Medics. When a Medic heals a Spy, the Spy catches fire. If healed for 3 consecutive seconds, the Spy dies. If at least one Spy survives, the remaining Spies win. If all the Spies are busted, the Medics win. If all the Medics are killed, the remaining Spies and Heavies win. The music varies from a minigame song from ''Mario Party 6'' to an instrumental version of the ''Ghostbusters'' theme song. While busting a ghost, the Medic's view will be locked onto that ghost in a manner reminiscent of the Chainsaw from ''Doom''.

Once your life count reaches 0, you are eliminated from play until the next round of minigames starts. After a certain amount of eliminations, the number of players per minigame will go down to 2.

Tf2ware Tf2warev2.png

TF2Ware is a custom SourceMod game mode and accompanying map that emulates the gameplay style of the WarioWare game series on Nintendo consoles. The modification was created by Mecha the Slag. Two years after Mecha stopped developing the project, TonyBaretta created a new version with over 50 games.

The gameplay within the map involves all players participating in randomly chosen minigames, simple tasks with short instructions and a duration of less than 5 seconds. Players are automatically changed to the class (or role) the minigame requires, are generally forced to wield a specific weapon/slot, do not have any ammunition, and cannot melee attack unless the minigame requires it. Players earn one point per minigame they win and as soon as a number of minigames are played, a Boss Stage begins. These Boss Stages are longer (about a minute on average) and are slightly more complex than normal minigame. They always have a dedicated environment within the map. The player with the most points following a Boss Stage is given a period kill all other players on the stage, after which the flow of gameplay is looped and everybody's score reset to 0.

The most recent version of the map is TF2Ware2_a4.
