F.A.Q.
I see a lot of recurring questions in my submissions, and I feel this one in particular will have some of it's own, so here's a list of frequently asked questions that will hopefully lower the amound of redundant comments:

Q: "How do I download?"
A: In case you didn't know, TF2 Steam Workshop is different than the others like Left 4 Dead or GMod. TF2 Workshop is only for evaulating interest in an item to be included in TF2. You can download the mod here:

http://gamebanana.com/skins/141421

Animation Fix mod by Pootato:
https://gamebanana.com/skins/170311

Q: "Is this an official Doom 4 Promo?"
A: I'd be thrilled if it was, but it's not. It's just a fan mod of the Cow Mangler that I've always wanted to make since the weapon first came out. This weapon wasn't made with permission from ID Software or Bethesda, although I've tried to get in touch with them before making this workshop page. No reply yet, but if they have a problem with this Workshop submission I'll take it down.

And of course I'll give them credit also if this gets in the game. ID made the damn thing, it'd only be right to.

Those are the two big questions I can think of at present. If more recurring questions pop up I'll add it to the list.

I'm well aware, sadly. One of the contributors doesn't have a bank account yet, and until they accept their revenue portion the submission is kind of invisible.

I really hope this gets resolved soon, it's taken far too long

I worked on this since Feburary 2015. Although a lot of stressful personal stuff happened over the course of last year, so it's like 6 months of on again-off-again work. Though most of that progress happened the month leading up to it's release.

So I got the model done in like two and a half weeks (for the most part), and then got Paysus lined up to do the animations, and FiveEyes to do textures. FiveEyes had to ditch the project due to personal obligations, and Paysus got sick of bugfixing the anims and dropped out as well. Fast forward about five months when Pyspy added me about the project, to which he decided to do textures and bugfix Paysus' anims. He also got a couple friends to do sounds and particle effects, all this in about a month. Really grateful that he decided to help, he certainly did a lot for this mod.

How do you install it onto TF2 from Gamebanana after clicking the download button? It says "No specific installation instructions were found."

I think the download button must have broke. Updated the FAQ to have a direct link to the GB page, where the download works totally fine (at least on my end).

A question: Why *all* of the soldier's primary weapons are placed like original rocket launcher(lower middle of the screen)? Is it possible to have this as a mod without having it mess everything else?
