Big Mean Mother Hubbard
Revision as of 19:36, 11 August 2022 by K1ngD3D3D3 (talk | contribs) (added trivia using the polycount submission, the weapon's name wasn't known until December 2010, as such the polycount submission is very likely the origin, due to the string location and timeframe.)

The Big Mean Mother Hubbard was an experimental, likely primary, weapon for the Engineer that was being play-tested by Valve. The existence of this weapon was first discovered in the form of filename strings found in the cp_degrootkeep.lst
file that was added to the game in the December 17, 2010 Patch;
"tf\materials\models\weapons\c_items\c_big_mean_mother_hubbard.vmt" "tf\materials\models\weapons\c_items\c_big_mean_mother_hubbard.vtf" "tf\models\weapons\c_models\c_big_mean_mother_hubbard\c_big_mean.ani" "tf\models\weapons\c_models\c_big_mean_mother_hubbard\c_big_mean.dx80.vtx" "tf\models\weapons\c_models\c_big_mean_mother_hubbard\c_big_mean.dx90.vtx "tf\models\weapons\c_models\c_big_mean_mother_hubbard\c_big_mean.jpg" "tf\models\weapons\c_models\c_big_mean_mother_hubbard\c_big_mean.mdl" "tf\models\weapons\c_models\c_big_mean_mother_hubbard\c_big_mean.phy" "tf\models\weapons\c_models\c_big_mean_mother_hubbard\c_big_mean.sw.vtx" "tf\models\weapons\c_models\c_big_mean_mother_hubbard\c_big_mean.vvd"
Update history
- [Undocumented] Added the
cp_degrootkeep.lst
file which contained staging build content filenames.
Trivia
- This weapon was originally submitted to the Polycount Pack contest but remains unused by Valve. The weapon id string (TF_WEAPON_DISPENSER_GUN) that existed for this weapon indicated it was possibly meant for the Engineer Update, being located between the Wrangler and Frontier Justice.
