You know, you could consider learning to do some of this yourself, so many requests, and the simple ones like these are easily achievable.


1: have a photo editing program like Photoshop or GIMP. (gimp is free, photoshop is kinda free.)

2: if gimp, u need vtfedit. (google, its free.)

3: open steam folder, go to steamapps/sourcemods/fortress forever/materials/models/player/
in there should be several folders, each with the class name. in those folders are .vtf files, the textures. open with either photoshop (using the vtf plugin, google for it) or vtfedit - in vtfedit, u need to export as a .tga and open it in gimp as that.


4: in photoshop, go to adjustments, brightness/contrast, and increase the brightness. if you want more color, go to adjustments, hue/saturation and increase the saturation.

in gimp it is similar - with the texture image open, go to colors/ brightness contrast, or hue saturation and adjust as you would like i explained before.

5: if using photoshop, save as .vtf, save it as the same name and the same location as it was - like "sniper_body_blue" as an example.

if using gimp, save as .tga, then right click on your tga file, open with .vtf edit, import it (prefferably with DXT5 texture, more info on VTFedit found here:http://www.fpsbanana.com/tuts/5494)

save it as the same name as the original .vtf file, place it where it was, and you are done.

any questions, i would like to offer an answer.

I really enjoy making stuff that people will use, but I'm still learning too.

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE FOR FF LATELY??

Everyone should pitch in, doesn't matter if your stuff looks like shit as long as you try. Look at some / most of my stuff. 10 year olds could probably do better.

I played cpma (the game which that was taken from) for a long time, and any game with brightskins will have custom colors, so I am asking what colors he would like to see, so I can include his combo in the pack I am releasing.

Personally, I have always liked Green shirt/ yellow pants.

I am fully aware of this, having had a lot of experience with cpma / warsow, but Fortress Forever is a game of four colours: red, blue, yellow and green; keep things simple!!! We don't want someone on the red team being dressed in PURPLE :P

Maybe a class logo on the chest / back of the class would be beneficial, too

I did this long long time ago. I think my work goes in file 13 after a while :\

I had some very bright models (same as default, just brighter)
And some extreme team-colored models .. very visible. I guess i need to buy a site again and host it all.

But hopefully this time ppl dont complain about the flash not being top-notch.

arses.

tis all.

im tired.

wtf.

this is the one thing ive been waiting for i cannot stand the default models so im stuck with these ugly new tfc models which are hardly an improvement.

gogo neon green

are commands like cg_enemymodel and cg_enemycolor possible in the source engine
