Just wanna let you know, mad respect you mod for Vinny. Keep up the good work.

hey, the Waxy Wayfinder is by far one of the neatest cosmetics in the game, and the robot version's pretty cool too! appreciate you making them
any chance you could sign mine?

Honestly one of the most down to earth people i have talked with.

Can you ask Vinny to invite me? Im in your crew already, I don't wanna be kicked, Im not gonna ruin stream

Waxy Wayfinder All-Class when? >:D jk. Thanks for the cutest hat for the pyro :D

thx for making my favorite tf2 hat

Just got around to finding my way around the Material settings in the Importer and figuring out how to make the self illumination work with alpha. I was searching for Waxy Wayfinder instead of the candle. Found the files though. Thanks a lot for all your help ! Thank you very much :) Have a great day. Cheers.

You should be able to get access to them with a VPK viewer. Unless they changed it recently, they should be located under materials\models\player\items\pyro. I think I named the files candle_hat.vtf or something similar.

Hey man, thanks a lot for such a quick reply !
I actually wanted to go through the VTFs and VMTs for Waxy Wayfinder, but unfortunately, I don't own the hat in the game yet, and neither could I find the files in my TF directory. Any workaround to this ?
And thanks a lot for helping it. Appreciated ! :)

Hey there
It's been awhile since I worked on this...let's see if I can remember. The self illumination gradient look on the candle is actually handled by the alpha channel. It was very tricky for me to setup paintability and self illumination at the same time, but if you look at my VMT file you'll see what I did. The RGB values that you'll see in there were actually to set the default yellow-ish color. The VTFs themselves are all grayscale. I hope this helps!

Hi there Oznabog,
I would like some help regarding having to put a glow halo around an item. I have added you so I can discuss the same with you. If you are not open to having a chat, it would be alright if you could elaborate a bit, on how did you manage to get the glow, by having a gradient fade out glow. I managed to have the fade work out by checking the Self Illumination on and setting the RGB values to 0,0,0 so that the fade out works but now my object does not glow in the dark due to the same reason. Would be great if you could help out a bit. Thanks for taking the time to read this. Cheers !

Apparently the audio issue is a known bug: http://help.twitch.tv/customer/portal/articles/957163-highlights-have-no-sound

Are you kidding? The only videos where I DON'T talk are the Condemned ones. I'm not sure why the audio suddenly decided to stop working on the hour long VCD video, but the rest I talk almost none stop, especially the Project Zomboid ones. The broken audio VCD video starts at 3:25:00 here: http://www.twitch.tv/the_monotonist/b/429716894 if you want to see what it's supposed to sound like.

I decided to watch your stream for viscera cleanup detail, and noticed you did not talk in that either, so far from what i have seen i have not even heard a single sound from you.

Anyway, it is nice to see that you respond to everyone, which is great because you can find ways to improve everything.

Yeah i was thinking about my message did not make much sense, what i ment by that last part was an INTERESTING sound to listen to, or something to get involved in, and sometimes it can get a little boring when you might just be, for example, walking about in the rain or something and nothing else.

I have the game audio pretty high and streaming at a high bit rate too. You should have been able to hear that, right?

Thanks! I will try to pay attention to your other streams but it's hard because i don't have a twitch account or anything, just a note, do talk a little bit more because it kind of gets boring with nothing really going on, not even a sound to listen to.

Ah ok. I appreciate you watching though!

Yes i was watching your stream, i would've said something but i don't have a twitch account.

Umm, who are you? Were you watching my stream? If so, then yes I do have a microphone. Condemned is a horror game so I tend to not talk as often as to not ruin the mood. I gladly respond to anyone in the chat.

Also why do you not have a microphone? i was hoping to hear some commentary, because i almost cannot listen to videos without commentary if they are about games.

Do you have a youtube account or no?

sorry, no

are you selling that manniversary package?

Would like to add you as a friend and fellow TF2 item creator. Please keep me posted about your non-violent game. Cheers.

Hey, could you accept my friend invite. I want to discuss about a project you earn credit for.

amazing. This Guy is Somewhat Like me. ( i also lke the waxy wayfinder.)

Added to talk about a project.

Gaming it up in minnesota!

I collected several screenshots, but it's been pretty rare for me to come across anyone wearing the hat, so I never got enough to put together a collage

Did you ever make a screenshot of your Waxy Wayfinder? ._.

I guess I'm having second thoughts about that. I would rather save that for someone I personally know...sorry

Haha! If it were possible for me to sign hats or whatever I would be more than happy to.

I'm sorry, but I only collaborate on projects with people that I either know personally, or have a proven record of past projects

Hey since you got a hat accepted in the game, I feel you might be a good person to do something for me. I have a number of really good ideas for TF2 but i am terrible at the creation part and making it on the computer. If you can message me that will be great. It would be greatly appretiated and I cant wait to share my ideas

Wow cool hat man!!!
