[NotSoHoriz]

The showcase post is up! I said before the end of saturday, and I managed it by about forty minutes.

Thanks for taking the time to create what we have been waiting for.

I just wanna ask,(i don't care about when i get the medal i just wanna know this) when we do get the medal,will it be a steam notification (the green shit in the corner of the steam client where it says "you have a new item in your inventory") or will it be a tf2 notification (triangle with a exclamation point)

 

[LeSwordfish]

It'll be a TF2 notification: you'll need to open TF2 to get it. We'll let you know when the medals are out.

Medals should all have been distributed by now - you'll get them next time you open TF2. PM me if you haven't got one and should have, ideally with a link to whatever you made.

Credit to @Geit for putting together a mass uploader - saved me submitting 489 medal requests one at a time.

Thanks who ever made them

 

[LeSwordfish]

The medals were made by Zoey "Zobot" Smith.

 

[Dribbleondo - Au Yeah]

What it looks like on my engie =)

 

[Vel0city]

All we need now is a separate item slot solely for medals.

 

[Dribbleondo - Au Yeah]

Agreed. I mean, there are a lot of medals in TF2 now, even not including 6v6 highlander

Yaaay! Just got mine. Thank you!

Just to show that there is retention of new mappers after the jam (and to shamelessly plug my work), here's a shot from the jam version of my map:

And a shot from the next version on which I'm still working:

that would be hell, imagine the entity count
if you could choose a medal to display without showing it as a cosmetic, i reckon that would be a good solution

At most it would add 32 entities if every player has a medal on a max player count server. Not really much compared to the entities made by players shooting syringes or sticky traps. (unless i'm totally dumb and missing something obvious)

Yeah maybe I phrased that badly. Even so, I'm pretty sure hydro sometimes crashes servers due to the entity count. An extra 32 would make it a near certainty.

Push the engine limits even further
Also you now have 666 posts by the time I viewed it.

Thanks to the Jam, I've started to learn Hammer =D. It's surprisingly easy to pick up.
