Remember this?

Remember that?

Who thought it looked freakin awesome? come on, don't be shy, I know I did, And then valve turn around and give us some lame beachball with a radiator instead.........

Well as it turns out they actually gave us both, we've all got the above model:
"models\props_spytech\cart_bomb.mdl"

Its all green right now, anyone fancy extracting it and making a proper texture for it?

NICE find!

/wonders if that counter thingy works.

/and if so, what is used for?

 

[joshman]

Where'd you find that picture?

Time remaining on the bomb? Would have been pretty cool that if you didn't get it to the final point in time, the bomb blew up right there, killing blue

Valve posted it on the steam update news many moons ago (when goldrush was scheduled for early in the year) since then its been reposted just about everywhere (including here, but the search feature is absolute s*** on this forum so I couldnt find it)

I took a look at the wireframe moments after posting this and it seems there is no stuff inside, none of the fancy machinery, which kinda removes the fun from it.
It can still be textured up nicely though if someone wants to use it I think it would be great to see it in a custom

 

[joshman]

Yeah, It'd do nicely for a PL map i'm planning.

Its amazing how much leftovers valve leaves in the game. First the TFC Stuff, The Skulls, The TFC Flag, The TFC Turrets, and now this.

Its amazing!

BTW, I checked. Theres a bunch of other models too that resemble that.

I personally think its ugly as hell and I'm happy they actually made a kickass bomb now.

Someone also needs to texture the mysterious "prototype train".

Indeed. Fat Man is much better than computer cart on a mine track.

Agreed.

Oh shii... 5 mo bump!

 

[laghlagh]

But then again this would have been awesome!

Oh shii... 5 mo bump!

If you are so opposed to a 5 month bump, why then add pointlessly to the thread?

But yes, a five month bump with nothing significant new to add to the thread.......

Hmm, I may even take a shot at this. Would go well in say, a spytech environment.
