Advanced Weaponiser

“

Now THIS is a nice weapon. Click to listen — The Sniper after experimenting with his new loadout.

”

Advanced Weaponiser is the name of a SourceMod server plugin which adds additional items to Team Fortress 2. It was developed by Mecha the Slag, and is currently at version 2.0.7.

A loadout viewer has been built specifically for Advanced Weaponiser. The backpack viewer has been made to resemble the actual in-game backpack. In the same manner as other backpack viewers for TF2 itself, the inventory of any player can be viewed by adding their Steam ID at the end of the URL. For example, Mecha's backpack can be viewed here, and his loadout can be viewed here.

Basic Use

• Advanced Weaponiser automatically associates 'backpacks' with a player's Steam ID, letting them retain their items and loadout settings across all servers running the plugin.
• When connecting to a registered server for the first time, a player will not have any Advanced Weaponiser items, but will be granted one after a short amount of gameplay time.
• Like the official TF2 item drop system, players are regularly granted an Advanced Weaponiser item as they spend time playing on a registered server, rapidly continuing until they have at least one of every non-restricted weapon. The drop system then randomly allocates weapons at a slower rate, for use in Advanced Weaponiser's crafting system.
• When receiving an item, the player is presented with an HTML page showing the item's appearance, name, class, and statistics, and they have the option of either equipping it immediately or dismissing the message.
• Items found or crafted cannot currently be traded.
• Weapons can also be purchased from the SLAG Shop with SLAG Shillings and Pounds.

Removed Weapons

The following weapons were removed from Advanced Weaponiser for various reasons.

Removed Weapons
Class	Weapon	Authors	Attributes/Notes
Scout	Secondary Pegasus Boots	Mecha the Slag (Script)	Alt Click: Fire Dash  Moving at the speed of sound is no longer an issue!  This was exclusively found during the Great Slag Treasure Hunt.  Removed due to issues involving players getting stuck inside of each other, as well as bad detection for flat surfaces, ending up in short spurts of dashing.
	Melee Support Smacker	VonWilbur (Model) Mecha the Slag (Script)	Crits on Medics that are healing  -20% damage done  Removed due to being ineffective, hard to use, too situational and conditional.
Pyro	Secondary Claw of Fate	Nirrti (Model/Texture) Mecha the Slag (Script)	On Hit: Pulls target towards you  50% slower firing speed  Removed due to being too annoying to players, because it could technically be used for griefing, and because it effectively turned the server into a Pyro fishing minigame server.
	Secondary Gentle Manne's Olde Firecannone	Nirrti (Model/Texture) Mecha the Slag (Script)	Alt-Fire explodes the flare in mid-air  Flare does no damage otherwise  No random critical hits  Removed because the Detonator was added to the game.
	Melee Endless Carnage	Nirrti (Model) LT_Commander (Texture) Mecha the Slag (Script)	+30 max health  +30% firing speed  On Hit: +20 health  -50% damage penalty  The stats shown here represent the last released version of the weapon; the stats were initially changed during Australian Christmas because Valve added the Back Scratcher, which had identical stats to the original Endless Carnage. After a brief period where it used these changed stats, it was scrapped entirely.  The first ever Advanced Weaponiser item.
Demoman	Primary Rain-Man	Kosai106 (Model) Mecha the Slag (Script)	Leaves a trail of Grenades  Each grenade deals 50% damage  -50% clip size  Removed because it did not fit its original design.  The weapon's model is now used for the Blaster Master.  Orignally called The Scottish Cyclops
	Secondary Celtic King	Mnemo (Model) Mecha the Slag (Script)	When 'The King' or nearby allies deal damage to opponents, charge increases  Gives up to +50% speed and damage bonus to user based on charge  Gives up to +25% speed and damage bonus to allies based on charge  Charge decreases faster the more charge  Alt Click: Parry  Spend 25% charge to block the first source of damage  This was exclusively found during the Great Slag Treasure Hunt.  Removed due to being deemed too overpowered.
Heavy	Melee Drill	Sparkwire (Model/Script) NeoDement (Script)	+10% move speed  +15% damage bonus  +125 max health on wearer  Disables use of Primary and Secondary slot  Removed because it was rubbish (stated during KritzKast's interview with Mecha).
Engineer	Melee Blizzard Builder	Treythepunkid (Model) Mecha the Slag (Script)	Buildings are built, repaired and upgraded by hurting enemies  Sappers are removed in the same manner  10% of damage done by the Sentry Gun is recovered on the owner  Removed because Mecha didn't like the mechanic of buildings being destroyed on death (which also happened when you had a custom Wrench equipped and hit a supply locker upon respawn).
Sniper	Melee Kangaroo Catcher	Hideous (Model) Pie_Tony (Texture) Mecha the Slag (Script)	Alt-fire throws the boomerang  Removed due to issues with the boomerang either travelling through walls and spawn barriers, or getting stuck in them.
	Melee Amateur with Feelings	Mecha the Slag (Script)	Not polite, not efficient. Just a bloke with a plan to kill his wife.  Effect: Community Sparkle  Removed because the majority of players who owned the weapon did not use it, and it became obsolete. However, Mecha does plan to use it again in the future.
Spy	Primary Revolvin' Revolver	Viper Snake (Model/Script) Lei Lei (Script)	+175% max ammo  +80% faster fire rate  +60% faster reload time  -65% damage penalty  -450% accuracy  This was the first weapon to ever be removed.  Removed because it did not fit any design, and had numerous balance issues.
	Primary Bloody Hurtland	Viper Snake (Model/Script) Lei Lei (Texture)	On hit: Bleed for 5 seconds  -25% damage penalty  -10% smaller clip size  -80% slower fire rate  -20% slower reload  This was the first gun to be added to AW. Later on, Mecha the Slag scrapped Viper Snake's stats and changed the name to the Backdoor Bandit.
	Primary Backdoor Bandit	Viper Snake (Model) Lei Lei (Texture) Mecha the Slag (Script)	Shows no hurt indication to victim  +50% accuracy  Firing does not remove disguise  Cannot kill  Removed because it was impractical, confusing, and didn't serve its purpose.
	Melee Heart Openner	Mico27 (Model) Mecha the Slag (Script)	Backstabs infects the victim  Infection disables the victim after 4 seconds  The victim is killed after 8 seconds  Does not remove disguise on a successful backstab  Infection can be removed by a Medic or Health Kit  Removed due to the curing mechanic eventually breaking, and due to complaints that it was too overpowered.

Known Bugs

• Not every weapon has a working viewmodel yet.
• The April 14, 2011 Patch introduced a permanent bug where players could no longer view most custom weapon/hat models.
• Snipers equipped with The Walkabout have the cosmetic attachments of their 'real' primary weapon displayed on their player model (i.e. arrows in the quiver with the Huntsman equipped, darts in the pocket with the Sydney Sleeper).
• Players on a Mac are prone to random crashes. The source of the problem is known (the HTML 'Message Of The Day' window), but disabling MOTDs in TF2 prevents players from accessing their AW loadout, so it's not an acceptable fix.
• One is able to overheal with the Quick-Fix when using it with the Lethal Injection.

Trivia

• Several weapons in Weaponiser are based on unused and beta items.
• Weapons that featured in this mod are sometimes officially added to the game, using either their model or stats:
  • The original stats for the Endless Carnage were the same as the stats now used for the Back Scratcher.
  • The stats for the Gentle Manne's Olde Firecannone were very similar to the stats now used for the Detonator.
  • Before being officially added to the game, the Fists of Steel model was used for a weapon by the same name. Because of this, the Advanced Weaponiser version was renamed to the Alternative Fists of Steel, and given visual distinction from the official version by using a plain steel texture.
• The Great Slag Treasure Hunt was a special event hosted a few months before the end of Version 1, giving AW players the chance to gain three weapons which were (at the time) exclusively found as treasure hunt prizes. Players had to collect 4 clues (the letters S, L, A and G) and stand at specific points on specific maps to claim their prize.
  • The Pegasus Boots were found on koth_viaduct, The Celtic King was found on koth_nucleus, and The Lethal Injection was found on koth_harvest_event.
• Despite the Bloody Hurtland having a kill icon, it was never provided for client download at any point.
• The model of the the Heart Opener is based on the Yatagarasu's Key from Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth.
• The model of the Endless Carnage is based on a chainaxe from the Warhammer 40,000 universe.
• The model of the Revolvin' Revolver is based on Skelter Helter's gun from No More Heroes 2.
• The Rad Rap is modeled after the hat worn by "Russel" on the cover of the Gorillaz album "Demon Days."
  • The description for the Rad Rap is a reference to the Gorillaz song On Melancholy Hill.
• The model for Maxine appears to be based on the Vickers machine gun.
• Version 1 had its own achievements system (based upon one of Mecha's other plugins), and players who fulfilled the achievement conditions were rewarded with hat skins like the Rad Rap.
  • Achievements were removed in Version 2 because they left the plugin open to exploitation.
• Every player's AW Backpack was wiped clean upon the launch of Version 2.
  • All Self-Made and Community items were re-issued to the players who owned them after the upgrade.
• Updates to Advanced Weaponiser sometimes celebrate 'item drop' milestones:
  • From the 300,000th AW item drop onwards (a combined total of all AW v1 and early AW v2 drops), every 1,000th AW item found is of Unusual quality, with particle effects attached to the weapon models.
    • There was a brief bug where players could find unusual crafting items, such as Attribute Scrolls.
  • Crafting was activated at the 500,000th item drop.
