New Dispenser skin

http://www.fortress-forever.com/?a=m...penser_render2

Is this the finished skin? Because if it is... it's freakin' awesome.

Props to both sev and decs for it. The damn screen gets me exicited for the finished product.

I"m also glad for the little website updates like this one; it keeps the community interested and up to date. I hate checking up on mod pages to see they haven't updated in a little over 3 months or something. Keep up the good work, fellas.

edit- i fixed your link -- rebo

The skin is nice but the model is basic and it looks pretty much like the TFC one. I know they are trying to stay true to TFC with FF but i was expecting some new models with a more 'advanced' feel to them.

Id love to see some up-to-date rendition of this dispenser model

This one is way better than that one DamagE. It works well with the game, there is no need to change it.

I think it looks good. But I think it would be better if the screen showed a default windows xp login screen or something.

Would be cool with something on screen, but preferably not a Microsoft product.
How about a Matrix-screen, or a static image such as this one?

Maybe the screen could start flickering when it's damaged?

Good job so far, looks great!

Hmm, I like that idea. Would be nice to actually have some in-game information displayed on it. Maybe the scoreboard?

Nice skin, I like it. Would be cool to have something other than a blank screen...linux maybe? Flickering/malfunction (or hey, blue screen of death) would be cool for a damaged dispenser.

If they don't program it to display anything on the screen, I'm pretty sure we will be able to edit the texture and place whatever we want on the screen. So for now, it is fine just the way it is.

scoreboard and windows login scren are good but i got better


the mapper sets up ceartain cameras and then the dispensor shrinks the image down and displayes it (each dispensor chooses the camera closest to it or if theres an sg closest to the sg) OMG! GREAT IDEA!

would own so much and only take like a couple of hours to put in there and I only I would like it!!!!


OR porn.. cant go wrong with porn!

maybe this is a better idea

Hmm. Your ideas are creative, but this is simply an ammunition dispenser. Camera idea could work, but then again that kinda alters gameplay since you could hypothetically see someone hiding around a corner. Although I guess that could be good or bad.

I was thinking; wouldn't it be more logical to display some sort of auto-identify or something displaying a generic picture of the player (be it an engineer, soldier etc.)? Maybe with some tiny, unreadable text for stimuli, and the player's name, then displaying whatever else is appropriate to dispening ammunition/health (i.e. Producing Grenades, Shotgun Shells, blah blah)

and if an enemy walks up to the dispenser maybe display an access denied, login page, whatever else, or just nothing. don't get too crazy I say, because that'll all take time and I just wanna fuckin play!

im sorry my suggestions were jokes.

anyway a decently reasonable suggestion would be that it displays its levels of whatever. Armour lvls/ammo levels ect. This could be made so that it doesnt display it 24/7 and only when a teamate comes by.. or just put some generic green txt over it and call it a day. watever. wont effect tfc and i wanna play tfc. in fact dont color anymore of the models and instead release a pre alpha now! I have demanded it and now you must acknowledge.

I tired... mmmm
