Item icons

Please note, item icons are all 512×384 pixels, this is important for the layout to not go screwy in tables. In addition, the Front Runner image you uploaded is lacking Antialiasing quite badly. I've reverted it because of this, please be careful not to double-revert as it plays havoc with the cacheing system. Thanks! 10:08, 31 May 2012 (PDT)

Hi.

Ni Hao :D. my chinese friend taught me that if that makes any sense. Im here to just ask you what programs you use for recording coz personally i use bandicam :D

你好 , 我是用fraps来录的 fraps is of the top list recorder but it's large video size file but it's the best one to do demonstration. also you can use Recording demos and Srcdemo2 to render , it's take some times then fraps but it's give smoother and motion blur. watch the saxxy dmeonstration it's render with srcdemo2 looks nice? and please don't forget to sign my friend.

glad to see it's helped you , Good luck for your demonstration! :3 Karmacharger 10:06 , 7/30/2012 (PDT)

Unarmed Combat

You managed to get the unarmed combat to cooperate for a demonstration once, with Bandicam. I tried using that, but the arm was still twitching far more than it was in the current demo. Any suggestions for getting that to work? Or, of course, if you can do it on your own, please feel free to. Thanks! — Armisael (T | C) 04:14, 20 August 2012 (PDT)

Thanks for doing that. What you posted is at least as good as the current one (and up to date with the color and taunt), so I can't really ask for any more. — Armisael (T | C) 12:34, 20 August 2012 (PDT)

Models not showing up in demos

You need to remove the line "loadondemand" "1" from the Orchestrina's entry in your copy of items_game.txt to get it to show up in demos. This'll work for any hat, though. — Armisael (T | C) 05:21, 26 August 2012 (PDT)

Too many reservations

If you read the reservation guidelines, they say that you can have at most 3 reservations (and only 2, if all three aren't either reskins of each other or pyroland items). You currently have 4 (pain train, balloonicorn, robro, and orchestrina). You need to remove some of those reservations and allow other people to work on videos. — Armisael (T · C) 09:05, 6 September 2012 (PDT)

border-radius

instead of using -moz, -webkit, and -o-border-radius, just use border-radius. border-radius is the official one and has been supported by all major browsers for years now, no point using old, browser specific code, that acts differently than official(in the case of -moz).

Talk Page Additions

Additions to a talk page go at the bottom, not at the top.

Like this. New stuff goes below old stuff.

Stop putting new stuff in the proposals section at the top. — Armisael (T · C) 15:16, 1 November 2012 (PDT)

You can use the "Add topic" button at the top of the page (next to "Edit") to add a new talk section at the correct place — Wind 16:12, 1 November 2012 (PDT)

Wiki Cap trade on TF2 outpost

I saw this trade linked in your Steam profile description and asked the staff what to do about it.

We've looked into it and, from the outside, it looks like you were legitimately just trying to gather opinions on how much the hat is worth, perhaps with the purpose of refuting allegations from other traders claiming that the Wiki Cap is worthless.

In any event, this kind of behavior is not very good because:

• It comes off as bragging, which is against TF2 Outpost's rules and this is why the trade was closed
• It reflects poorly in terms of integrity; while this isn't explicitly written anywhere as a rule, it should be implicitly clear that Wiki Cap holders represent the Wiki in some fashion; any action executed by Wiki Cap holders reflects on the Wiki. Thus, actions like this don't make the Wiki look good :(

I also feel the need to remind you that some people have sold their account after they got the Wiki Cap, and subsequently got their Wiki Cap revoked. We don't want this to happen more often, which is why this message is there on your talk page. It's just as a cautionary sign saying that what you're doing is still mostly legit for now, but you shouldn't take things any further.

I hope that was clear :3 Please don't feel threatened by this, it is just a caution. Thanks for your contribution to the Wiki regardless, and keep up the good work (and weapon demonstrations) — Wind 16:11, 1 November 2012 (PDT)

I'll will remove it on my profile sorry , just interested to know what people can offer on it. i wasn't going to sell that Karmacharger 2:53 , 11/2/2012 (PDT)

Third degree / amputator demo videos

You seem to have done quite a few demo videos, so I thought I'd ask you about this. Do you think it would be worth re-doing the demos for the Amputator and/or the Third Degree to show what happens when a pyro with the third degree hits a medic who's using the Medicating Melody to heal team-mates? Kzig 09:08, 5 January 2013 (PST)

have you tired using a third degree do to that? never think about that but i'd interested to try that out. Karmacharger 1:18 , 1/6/2012 (PDT)

According to one of the posts on the talk page for the Third Degree, everyone in range of the melody should be hit. I'll let you know what I find - might give it a go now. Kzig 09:33, 5 January 2013 (PST)

Demonstration help

Hey, i want to reserve the item Huo-Long Heater and i want to write  This demonstration has been reserved: LaxonThat 16:44, 9 January 2013 (PST) somewhere on the Huo-Long Heater page so i could reserve it. The problem is where do i put  This demonstration has been reserved: LaxonThat 16:44, 9 January 2013 (PST) on the Huo-Long Heater's page so i could try to make a demonstration video? - Laxor

i belive image would be easy to tell you but i think you should read the project rules Again and Akuago220 is the owner of the Huo-Long Heater Demonstration that means he can remove your reservations anytime he want , you may need to ask him first before reserve. Be sure always see what wind said on the talk page or leave a comment to ask him out he's the leader of the project. Karmacharger 11:45 , 1/10/2013 (PDT)

Demonstration youtube uploads

The uploads are missing description and tags. Can you add them? Use older uploads as reference. For redos, you can copy-paste directly unless the stats have changed. — Wind 18:05, 17 August 2014 (PDT)

Apologize my bad, i'll add the right now. also, one of the new weapon which is the Classic, it doesn't have the Damage and function times information in the wiki page. Karmacharger 7:13 PM 8/19/2014 (PDT)

Weapon testing (by replacing stuff on items_game.txt)

Hello, today I removed a bug related to the item float into the air by doing some voice commands on some all-class (Except Engi and Spy for some of those weapons) weapons. However, since I don't have Saxxy, a Golden Frying Pan or a Memory Maker, I couldn't test if those were fixed or not. Can you explain to me how can I replace a weapon (e.g.: Frying Pan) to a Golden Frying Pan? I do believe it's by editing the items_game.txt (but edit what exactly?), and blocking the steam media servers on the hosts file. Thank you. ▪ - 07:42, 3 September 2014 (PDT)

Correction, only the Saxxy needs to be checked, the other two doesn't have this bug listed on the page. ▪ - 14:14, 3 September 2014 (PDT)

Problem solved, check the Saxxy page, thank you very much, sir. ▪ - 05:52, 4 September 2014 (PDT)

Pyroland Item Demos

Hello Karmacharger, I've been looking at how to make weapon demos and tried to get the hang of it in-game, without actually recording. I got the basics down (the video recipe if you will) but I encountered some issues that maybe you can resolve since you seem to be very experienced with it. Right now I'm trying to do a Pyroland Item Demonstration for the Spycrab since it hasn't been done already.

Anyway here is my little list of questions :

• I know how to go in thirdperson but everytime I use thirdperson_plateformer 1, I can't seem to get a good shot of the character (in my case, the Spy) because the camera gets "stuck" on immovable objects from the initial zone, thus it's impossible for me to get a good close shot of the Spycrab and Spy's face. Is there another command I should use ? (is it in the weaponref.cfg code ?)

• Another problem concerns the Pyroland Goggles. I just can't seem to get that Pyroland frame. I did everything I could do in the Advanced options but I just can't get it. What am I doing wrong ? Does the weaponref.cfg code prevent me from getting it ?

• I know how to get the split-screen but how do I apply it in-game, how does it work ? (by that I mean, can I control each screen individually ?)

• In the end, what program should I use to put every recording together and thus creating the final version of the demo ?

I know these questions might have painfully obvious answers for you but I'm not very familiar with that sort of thing but I'm willing to get the hang of it since video making is something I'm trying to enjoy. (Well not "trying" as in I'm forcing myself to enjoy, of course not... you know what I mean).

I thank you in advance for your answer. Tenacious Taco 14:20, 17 September 2014 (PDT)

Hey Taco, i'll answer your questions as much as i can.

• Yeah, it's literally impossible to get a good shot of the character just for using the thirdperson cam. the best way to do it is, spawn a bot with itemtest and have him equip the item, then join spectator and type cl_drawhud 0 to hide the hud (1 = enable, 0 = hide) and you should be able to get the best shot of the character as you want

• By default the pyroland is only enabled in a few official valve maps. open the mtp.cfg in the tf/cfg directory and just simply add the "tr_target_weaponref_hdr.bsp" "1" to the list and now you should be able to get the pyroland working on the map

• about the split screen, my friend Obilisk should be able to help and have an better explanation to this. sorry

• i personally prefer Sony Vegas Pro, you could check out the Beginner's tutorials But please feel free to use other tools

You made a video showing off the alien isolation promos, but you didn't show off the damage bonus each set does to the opposite set. All I wish to know is how much damage they do, thank you for your time.Gsilverleaf (talk) 12:41, 28 September 2014 (PDT)
