Gauges and buttons like on the destruction pda are red because those parts are red on irl things, and fire axes are red too. But neither do things like the banners, winger, sun on a stick, volcano fragment, steak sandvich and sniper rifle look good like this and are completely unnecessary changes Yes, there are some things that make sense like the team colored razorback, but most aren't team colored for a reason.

I think the silver/metallic weapons look better when shiny, therefore I say no .

A bit unnecessary but pretty good on these, although probably not the sniper rifle.

the fixes are fine, but some of the recolors are just completely unnecessary and don't make sense.

Fine idea, some good, but some awful. (Mainly the sniper rifle and buff banner)
Hali 18 Aug, 2024 @ 12:13pm 
for the blue chargin targe you should make it blue like in the backpack icon, i think that would make more sense and it looks better in my opinion
HEAVEN AND HELLO 23 Nov, 2023 @ 11:38pm 
The sniper rifle, destruction PDA, and fire axe DEFINITELY aren’t meant to be blue.

You are doing a fantastic work, keep it up, can't wait to see an ultimate pack ! :steamthumbsup: :majinbuu:

Everything is good except for the sniper rifle
Cozy-Pixel 13 Nov, 2023 @ 3:25pm 
For the most part this pack is amazingly done the only thing that should be changed is the sniper rifle scope for blue to be style 2 as the blue scope is a bit too much visually. Alongside keeping the destruction PDA red as it indicates the fact it detonates stuff.

I feel like some of these tweaks should be styles for the weapon like with the fire axe and winger as their current looks are rater iconic (at least when it comes to the winger).

Anyway, keep up the good work - :celeste_cassette:

I was gonna ask if you could do the Pilotka, as the Green looked distracting on BLU, but it looks like you're ONLY doing weapons and not hats/miscs.
SealShpeeDaSweggy 14 Jul, 2023 @ 1:41pm 
Everything presented here I like and definitely want to see...except for the BLU Sniper Rifle variant. It kinda looks like a skin that exists in the game just slapped onto it.
Everik  [author] 22 Jun, 2023 @ 7:49am 
other submissions already have that, along with fixes for scout's pant cosmetics to go with it. So if valve wishes to fix blu scout's pants, they should add one of those.
Local Douchebag 21 Jun, 2023 @ 8:47pm 
this also should incluide scout pants fix
Rider 27 May, 2023 @ 8:37am 
all of these are godly
Gorgeous George 22 May, 2023 @ 2:21pm 
Goated mod maker, loving all your stuff.
StupidSus 20 May, 2023 @ 10:52am 
YES TOO ALL (except the Sunstick, Volcano, and blue Axe, all 3 are maybes) OF THESE!
The game looking all the same in places where they shouldn't shows valve has not had the time to polish the visual identity of this game, even if the community has to come in and help.
saadsgoat 17 May, 2023 @ 10:20pm 
And the sniper, ig im okay with the style with no colored scope
saadsgoat 17 May, 2023 @ 10:09pm 
This is amazing, the only change I disagree though is the volcano fragment and the sun on a stick. They dont need any team colouration
kradsile 17 May, 2023 @ 8:13am 
I love this pack, especially the festive Buff Banner, but the Sniper Rifle really doesn't need a BLU variant in my eyes.
Fiddlah 11 May, 2023 @ 6:14am 
Are you going to update this to include the pistol?
Dogvan 2 May, 2023 @ 10:55am 
I really want valve to add this, but they're not going to change the color of the sniper rifle or the button on engie's remote. Blu can have red on their weapons. Maybe it should be split into two mods so valve is more likely to add the specular map fixes.
Tuff 30 Apr, 2023 @ 5:27am 
i don't like the decision to make the buttons on the disguise kit to be plain of course it is your preference but to me the disguise kit's buttons is suppose to be lit up like how the spytech walls in the intel of 2fort the kit also the watch is apart of that spytech theme
IceBitez 29 Mar, 2023 @ 4:21pm 
zeugziumy you bring up a good point but

what if

I want it anyway :]
Zeugziumy 29 Mar, 2023 @ 3:52pm 
As much as I love this pack, having things consistent in the game, specially color-wise (something I have done in the past with cosmetics as mods), I think the community-made weapons may not get in.

I can see the Valve-made stuff being possible additions, but re-done textures for community-made stuff may require permission from the original creators / having each creator on the Workshop's "Created By:" section, as Valve may not be able to add those considering it wasn't made by them.
ItsameWario 26 Mar, 2023 @ 3:37pm 
Great choice on having the Sniper rifle be a style choice. I do like the idea of it being based on the Sniper's colors, but the green scope just looks so much nicer, so I'm glad it can be chosen!
Knines 12 Mar, 2023 @ 1:10pm 
Since you did some work for the man melter, I thought I might say this: I think a BUNCH of people would really appreciate some fixes for that thing. Most of its problems come from the bugs, and I would LOVE to see it fixed.
PajamaPants 5 Mar, 2023 @ 4:49pm 
some of these feel unneeded, like the sniper rifle, but a lot of them I do enjoy.

The buff banner and winger recolors look awesome.
Xtreme_Shoot 3 Mar, 2023 @ 11:43pm 
No dude. that killed to Optimozions. Wtf ?!
Graceful Jabberwocky 3 Mar, 2023 @ 1:58pm 
really hope they add this in the summer update
phil_holes48 3 Mar, 2023 @ 9:00am 
i agree, the sniper rifle is overkill
.Maeoh. 2 Mar, 2023 @ 6:22pm 
I use this mod, its great! but I dont use too many of the weapons that recolor switches and gauges, they're red for a reason, not team color, but simple realism. I like the idea of most of these, but I really dont get the team coloring for the sniper rifle, as nothing else stock is team colored but the flamethrower, and the weapons with recolored gauges and switches
Rakyi </3 2 Mar, 2023 @ 11:36am 
Very Creative would love to see this in game <:
phil_holes48 2 Mar, 2023 @ 3:08am 
god this is so cool
IceBitez 1 Mar, 2023 @ 8:43pm 
LETS GO!!!!!
goulash 1 Mar, 2023 @ 7:03pm 
The addition community fix tag to the workshop makes me extremely optimistic.
IceBitez 1 Mar, 2023 @ 2:16pm 
You need to add the new "Community Fix" tag. This could potentially ACTUALLY get into the next update with it!!
StopMakingSense 26 Feb, 2023 @ 5:41am 
I agree with the person below me
Defecticon 23 Feb, 2023 @ 5:57am 
Same with the destruction pda and the fire axe. Not all red on BLU weapons has to be completely scrubbed; just the ones that make sense. After all it adds more depth to the weapons, making them feel a bit more believable.

Apart from that and the scope of the sniper rifle like one of the other guys here mentioned, these look great!
Defecticon 23 Feb, 2023 @ 5:50am 
The only thing that kinda seems off to me is the gauge for the bison. I mean sure it's red, but sometimes red isn't always used to separate between the teams. In this case the red area is is a sort of "danger zone".
Pygargue00fr 16 Feb, 2023 @ 7:21am 
Hey there, I noticed the disguise kit still use the old texture in third person, this is probably due to how most melee weapons still use the old v_model/w_model to this day.
goulash 15 Feb, 2023 @ 10:06am 
I'm hopeful this and your viewmodel consistency pack get implemented. Glad valve is open to adding more community fixes.
the prince of all backshots 15 Feb, 2023 @ 9:51am 
ok, hope that one gets added
Everik  [author] 15 Feb, 2023 @ 7:53am 
I think i'm going to make a separate version of this that only has the more reasonable changes. Valve informed us they're adding community bug fixes, so it seems worth it.
Zhiris 15 Feb, 2023 @ 5:29am 
The stock sniper riffle looks awful on Blu.
I don't mind the wood but making it the same colour as the Blu sniper pants just feels off.
Rest is pretty solid though! :steamthumbsup:
Zeugziumy 10 Feb, 2023 @ 8:19am 
Not sure if I dig the Festive Buff Banner. I know you made the emblem yellow to match the bell, but it looks weird considering everything else is following the Cream Spirit color scheme.
Full Body Whimper 9 Feb, 2023 @ 4:23pm 
terrifically high-detail and in perfect keeping with the style of tf2!
Mr. Moron 9 Feb, 2023 @ 1:37pm 
This and the Neon Weapon Skins are my most wanted Workshop items. This is such a massive yet simple quality of life update. The man has done your work for you, Valve. Just ADD it.
