oh me god, i have never seen such beauty before

this will be added to the game??

Oh Mann...

alr let me try it

sv_pure 1 means that pure is on, sv_pure 0 is off. If the console is showing sv_pure 1, then that means no skins will be visible.

If you want to turn it off locally, say on your own server, simply typing sv_pure 0 into the console should make the skin visible again.

apparently sv_pure 1 doesnt disable it
i require assitance

but this mod is really cool. makes me sad that this is your final mod.

ah found out

how do i disable sv_pure?

let me test that out

All right, I've pulled down a copy of the GameBanana addon and tested it. It appears to be working as intended.

Are you trying to play with the skin on a server using sv_pure? The skin will only show up when playing offline or on community servers with sv_pure turned off. Valve's servers have sv_pure on, which means no custom content can be used while playing on their servers.

hey i've done everything to work it. moving the Buio_cannon_turret.vpk to the custom folder. but whenever i try loading it it doesnt seem to work

Engie should have another Sentry to use other than the Mini.

Very nice! :D

This would be so cool to have in game

It should be moved to the custom folder. Like this "steamapps/common/Team Fortress 2/tf/custom/bui_cannon_turret.vpk"

Ah thx but do you know where i put it? like somewhere near the other vpk files?

The custom folder is where you copy/move your .vpk files to. If it does not exist, you create it. The .vpk should be copied to the root custom folder where the readme.txt is located(assuming you already have a custom folder). The readme.txt should have a lot more info on how the custom folder works, and how to install different kinds of mods/skins.

ngl this is pretty nice but i have one question. How do I insert the vpk into "steamapps/common/Team Fortress2/tf/custom/" ? what do you mean by that? do I have to make a new folder or paste it in the readme? i am really confused?

the guy below me is correct

the guy below me is dumb l

I do not want this in the game, it strays too far from what the buildings should be. The Mini Sentry was an engi building done right. This is too far from what a building should be.

its snipeineer time

You should make a Wrench for this

The skin is available in by following the gamebanana link in the description and downloading the vpk file. From there, you drop the .vpk file in your custom folder in your tf directory and you should be able to play with it.

how do i install this?

I wrote a really really long reply to this question in the stat discussion:

https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/2613999257/2963922521551938317/?ctp=2#c3092275748059298500

The short answer: I think you'd probably have to go ahead and make a dedicated sentry gun slot on the Engineer's loadout page and decouple the mini from the gunslinger.

Attaching sentry guns to something other than a melee creates the obvious conflict you mentioned. The existing PDA slot is also cosmetic, as it contains the pipboy skin(which does not modify the Engineer's buildables at all). Attaching more buildables to items feels like a bad idea, as the conflicts will only multiply.

The mini was probably tied to the Gunslinger so the developers wouldn't have to grapple with that loadout issue. They effectively kicked the problem down the road. I don't blame them.

If this was part of a new pda, what would happen if you equipped the gunslinger? Would it replace it with the mini-sentry?

The mod download is much appreciated.

Finally, an unlockable pda

i don't care lasaga cat, its worth trying.

valve wants this game dead so they're never gonna add new weapons

yes, just yes

This would definitely be something to consider in a game like TF2. Weapons for each class that are so diverse that they could fundamentally change how they are played by everyone. Engineer with this would definitely change his style from sitting near it to actually go about and shoot people without the aid of his sentry, encouraging more battle Engi.

But the only thing I would change is the firing speed. When against the normal sentry, it will get demolished due to the normal sentries firing speed, DPS and LVL 3 rockets. So, instead of 2.5 seconds, maybe 1.25.

Yes, this design revolves around shooting explosive shells at long range.

There is a '"Skirmisher" Stat Discussion' above the comments section that goes into more detail about how I designed it, specifically how I intended it to operate when I was planning it. It's just my idea, though, Valve would have the final say on how this item would function if it were to be accepted into the game.

so... no rockets? that means, only bullets? and a range-finder?

There are no rockets on this design. The rocket pod has been replaced with a range-finder.

where the rockets come from???

whe need for this turet

it looks like the ferrari version of a normal sentry gun. fkn awesome

Master of engineering!

Try testing the skin in a local game. Pull up cp_dustbowl or itemtest and see if the skin works there. The skin will not work on online servers running sv_pure, or with other mods that override the sentry gun. You could also try verifying your files, though I doubt that will do much.

Other than that, I'm not sure what the issue is. Doing searches have yielded no hits, and I can't see the error on my end. Sorry.

Yes. I downloaded the gamebanana file and put it inside the custom folder. I put both files inside of it. I dont know what I could be doing wrong.

I just pulled down a copy of gamebanana to check. The skin is working properly, have you placed it under your Custom folder? It should not be under any subfolders or the workshop folder.

Other than that, I don't know why this would happen.

Ive got it installed but all the textures and model are missing or corrupted. Its just errors and pink and black squares.

How could I fix this?

Really cool

good shit

Bro its best sentry model ife ever seen

Extremely cool, but I think the Lvl 3 is not distinct enough from the Lvl 2 Sentry

I hope this one get thru, cause if there will be update i hope it will be a new engie building.
