[TF2] Add in additional custom rocket projectiles?

Open TF2CutContentWiki opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

About 11 years ago, this submission by Elbagast featuring some custom rocket projectile models was added to the Workshop but was marked as incompatible despite being very compatible.

While it is a very unnoticeable thing during normal gameplay, it would be neat to have some custom rocket models for other rocket launchers.

Currently the Air Strike is the only launcher with custom models. As well, the original submission by Elbagast only includes custom models for:

  • Direct Hit
  • Liberty Launcher
  • Black Box
  • Original
  • Rocket Jumper downloadfile(1)

I however have a SourceMod server plugin that adds those rocket models in, alongside some custom made models that I had commissioned from TF2 Source 2 programmer N-Cognito: 68747470733a2f2f692e696d6775722e636f6d2f376b58493077462e6a7067

As you can see in the render for the project above, Elbagast's Direct Hit rocket came with optional team colored variants, and the Rocket Jumper also has a team colored cream spirit version. Those team colored variants could be ignored, and just the non-teamcolored Direct Hit & Rocket Jumper rockets could be used.

As for the custom rockets from the project that could be used ingame, I would say just the Beggar's Bazooka rocket. And maybe the Australium Rockets? I would not use the Botkiller rockets or the Festive Rockets though. Especially not the botkiller rockets for the love of all that is holy.

So basically, circling all the rockers we could use, it'd be the following: 68747470733a2f2f692e696d6775722e636f6d2f376b58493077462e6a7067

Now this is a fine idea, especially for the viewmodels. Demoman has custom projectiles already(Loose canon and Iron Bomber) so I don't see why this couldn't be in at all.
