Painted images

Hey there. Your painted items are good. They don't have any anti-aliasing though, something that is a requirement. If you follow the tutorial here: Template:Painted variants/Tutorial you can see how to get anti-aliasing in HLMV. -- Pilk _(talk) 09:38, 11 December 2010 (UTC)

Anti-aliased all of them and put the revised images up. Thanks for letting me know. Could've sworn Model Viewer was set to anti-alias... RagnarHomsar 10:03, 11 December 2010 (UTC)

Official Item Images

Hey there!

I'm new to the Wiki and was just wondering, where do you find the official item pictures? (The ones with the random class posing with the item) Shawnchi 18:25, 23 August 2011 (PDT)

I take the images by loading the class model and then loading the hat via "Load Weapon" (bizarre I know) in the Source SDK Model Viewer. Also, don't forget to sign your talk pages with four tildes (~). RagnarHomsar 18:25, 23 August 2011 (PDT)

Ah, I see. Then how do you get the Backpack icons?

Shawnchi 18:26, 23 August 2011 (PDT)

Extract them from the GCF using GCFScape from "team fortress 2 materials.gcf" and materials/backpack. They sometimes have random names, though. RagnarHomsar 18:28, 23 August 2011 (PDT)

Oh, Okay. Thanks! Shawnchi 18:29, 23 August 2011 (PDT)

No problem. :> RagnarHomsar 18:29, 23 August 2011 (PDT)

Item Sets

Ragnar, I know you're a good hand at making pictures for the wiki. Could you do me a favor and change/add some of the item set pictures? The current ones seem a bit too bland for my taste. Here's a few ideas.

Black Market Business: Capo Capper Heavy taunting with Family Business, pointing at the reader

A Thousand and One Demoknights: Sultan's Ceremonial Demoman taunting with his Persian Persuader while wearing the Splendid Screen and Ali Baba's Wee Booties (current one does not have boots)

General's Formals: Armored Authority Soldier taunting with the Disciplinary Action while wearing Mantreads and Fancy Dress Uniform

The #1 Fan: Bonk Boy Scout taunting with the Atomizer

Man of Honor: Cosa Nostra Spy brushing off his suit while holding an Enforcer and wearing a Made Man

I know it may seem like a lot, but judging from your last works this shouldn't be too much. Thanks in advance! Fyahweather 11:52, 30 August 2011 (PDT)

Thanks for doing the Black Market Business and Thousand and One Demoknights. Quick Question: Why did you put a Big Earner in the Man of Honor one instead?Fyahweather 15:49, 1 September 2011 (PDT)

Because the Enforcer's barrel looks bizarre in HLMV. It's not where it's positioned in-game, it's to the side. RagnarHomsar 16:23, 1 September 2011 (PDT)
