Thanks for the Wikichievement. I don't add Userchievements to my total of Wikichievements, but they will always be on the talkpages! Maybe one day I could make a section specific to Userchievements on my userpage, since I got another. - ▪ - 20:04, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the thanks

Not gonna lie, I was honestly terrified to mess with the yellow belt image because your version is just so good. It's one of my favorites. So it means a lot that I sorta got your blessing in a way. Thank you thank you Mediarch ♥ Talk ♥ My Edits 00:27, 2 April 2024 (UTC)

Thanks, what a surprise. I really thought it was going to be another Photo Bomb from my recent uploads, but new Wikichievos (and ones I didn't had at least one before) are nice! - ▪ - 20:23, 3 May 2024 (UTC)

Blue painted variants.

Hello, when I'm trying to make the full paint variants on certain cosmetics I can't seem to get the colours to work on the blue skin variants, they just stay at its standard blue skin when trying to get the paints to show, this happens on both TFMV and the MVscripts, any idea how to fix this problem?
Cheddar • Talk 17:02, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Hello. You can try / check the following:

• See if there any custom files on your tf/custom folder that is overriding the materials;
• See if by changing the "Skin" on HLMV back and forth fixes the issue. HLMV++ saves the material on a registry key, however, due to a visual error, it will always show as "Skin 1" on the actual program.
• For .mvscripts to work, you have to manually set the 2nd skin of the model before running it.
• To make BLU paints on TFMV, there are two ways. The way I do is by loading via TFMV (the TFMV Neo version that works with HLMV++, and not the non-Neo version). Then, click one time on the "RED" colored button, to fix the color being 255 255 255. Click on the .vmt (or navigate through "tf\custom\TFMV\materials\models\player\items\engineer" [example]), and open the _blue.vmt on Notepad. Copy all of its contents, then open _skin0 and the one without _blue or _skin0, and paste and save. Now make sure to click on that RED colored button once again.
  • Apparently there's another way where you can switch to the BLU team version (after pressing the red button at least once), then click on "Lock Skins" and begin the paint process, however, I haven't tried this myself.
• Now, you can do the paint vars. on the BLU team. Since HLMV++ saves the skin as a registry key, you can change it for the unpainted version, and it will keep. Make sure to keep the delay between screenshots for 10 seconds, or more if your computer is slow. Team-Colored paint cans take a little more time to process, and if you have the value too little, it won't refresh properly.

I know I typed this really quickly, but you can reach me out on Discord. Lately, I've been very busy and I've been spending my free time on other things. So I apologize the long wait for the response. - ▪ - 19:10, 7 July 2024 (UTC)

Decorated/War Paint Icons Inquiry

Hey, I saw yesterday you were working on making item icons for decorated/war painted weapons through exporting the texture from the game and into a vtf file. Is there some way I can reach out to you to talk about this further? I'm interested in helping with making icons for them, since I tried way back in 2014 and ended up giving up. I did some experimenting on my own and was able to (I think) replicate the process you're using. -- Rea - (Talk) 23:32, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Wikichievement unlocked, and good luck!

Hey there, I noticed your updated break template, and wanted to leave a message here since I haven't seen anyone else leave one.

You've done some phenomenal work here on the Wiki, especially your imagery work with painted cosmetics and your occasional trivia/unused content edit in-between. You've also overall been a good sport (from what I see), and even though our interaction count is basically zero to none, you seem like a cool guy both on the Wiki and off the Wiki.

Whether your departure from editing (actively) is permanent or simply until the next major update drops in 2050 (campaigning for Jungle Inferno 2 but about Bigfoot in a blizzard), and whatever it is you choose to do from here, I hope you find something less chaotic to maintain than the Team Fortress Wiki. (a joke, of course, the Wiki isn't that chaotic)

Hey there, thank you! In the past, there were times I mentioned I would stop editing but I ended up returning. However, I do feel like this time around it's for real, unless the War Paint Project Item icons don't go the way as planned. I have a lot of IRL things to focus and do now. For a long while, I ended up doing new things on this Wiki because I didn't want to fix all those blurry images I had, but now, these are finally done. The only edits I may do are related to my Loadouts table and that's it. Outside of important life stuff, I'd like to do other things outside of this Wiki. Prolly not going to edit any other Wiki anytime soon, but a couple things like making Youtube videos and maybe even Streaming during my break times, as well playing some games on Steam that isn't only TF2. Oh there's also a few other things I'd like to put on my HLMV Guide page and yeah, that would be it. I really appreciate the Wikichievo. - ▪ - 01:24, 2 September 2024 (UTC)

All fair, and your reasoning for leaving is understandable since this kind of stuff can get overwhelming or stale at some point in time, plus focusing on your own needs/wants is good, especially the YouTubing/streaming, that could be fun.
