The script makes my BLU Demoman first person arm models to go red. Is there a way to fix this?

EDIT: Fixed it, downloaded a newer version.

which version are you using?

The vpk one, why?

EDIT: Fixed.

Due to a recent slight buff to the cow mangler I want to start using it but with me currently using the "original" script I cant stand the explosion of the mangler. Is it possible for you to add a file to make this script work for this weapon?

does anyone have the .ctx file for the cow mangler?
edit: nvm, i have the .txt but apparently it just doesnt work with the cow mangler anyways

2639 frames 22.382 seconds 117.91 fps ( 8.48 ms/f) 7.272 fps variability

How did you get the PunchAngle mod working? It works for me but only listen servers and on servers that installed the same mod (only works on my srcds server). I removed the PunchAngle line entirely. What did you do?

i replaced "env_rain_001_mist" for "impact_metal" and i dont have smoke all over me with dx91 !!! but i have to say if viewmodels are enabled i can see muzzle flash a tiny bit tbh idk about transparent viewmodels.

Can you somehow disable this effect?
doublejump_puff (rocketjumptrail.pcf)
edit: lol, fuck me, sry about this stupidity

where do i put the file tho :p

scripts folder

If you downloaded the txt files:
tf > Custom > anyname > Scripts > txt files

If you downloaded the vpk files:
tf > Custom > vpk file

How do I make this work with the detonator, cow mangler, and scorch shot explosions?

This does not work for the detonator and scorch shot since those do not have a seperate weapon text file and are just considered regular Flareguns. You can do it for the cow mangler though

step 1:
download for all the default weapon text files
You'll see these are the same text files you also have in the Scripts folder of the config

step 2:
the cow mangler's weapon txt file is tf_weapon_particle_cannon.txt
extract somewhere and open it in notepad (I recommend downloading notepad++ for some quality of life)
find //buckets at line 30

step 3:
go to Scripts where your already working txt files are. Open one with the explosions you want the cow mangler to have and also find //buckets

step 4:
Inside the buckets paragraph you'll find something like this

That's what you'll see in tf_weapon_particle_cannon.txt. But those aren't the explosions you want.
So go into the other file that has the right explosions and just copy paste those over in the cow mangler's file.
For example I use

Then just make sure you save the cow mangler file and put it in the Scripts folder where the other txt files are

How would I go about keeping the default xhair for scout while at the same time keeping the bullet spread invisible? I'm using the script, but it's kinda forcing me to use custom crosshairs. Any ideas?

Edit: Using sprites/crosshairs worked.

Your method doesn't work even though it should. I tried changing it to many different particles but none of them did anything, except when I changed the type of projectile to the normal rocket (instead of the lazer thing), but it only worked in singleplayer.

I don't know if it's me, or if the cow mangler is just fucked

I tried the same thing as well with no success. Seems like the cow mangler just doesn't work with this.

I was gonna ask a question about this, but what you said here is already what I have done. It doesn't work for me. I just see the normal cowmangler explosion... Here's my tf_weapon_particle_cannon.txt file:

I recently reinstalled the script after a period of not using it, and I somehow managed to remove a lot of particles from my game. While the absence of some of these particles actually makes playing more enjoyable (no rocket trails), some of the particles are imperative to proper play (sticky trails, med beams). I guess I'm wondering if a) anyone has experienced anything similar and b) if anyone knows how i could perhaps get sticky trails and med beams back without getting rocket trails back

How did you remove the rocket trails? Does it work on valve servers?

DX8 is not supported anymore on the latest amd drivers, use dx9 or roll back to 16.12.2
edit: just saw it's an old post, I'll leave it for reference

Thanks. This helped a lot.

bumping old threads with no new information is unforgivable

it dont work i made the file but ingame it dont work.Where do i put the file next?

you place it in

/Team Fortress 2/tf/custom/nosmoke/scripts/

all the text files in the downloads go there.
ie:

recent finding that might be worthwhile to someone who understands this better than me:
changing "ProjectileType" in tf_weapon_particle_cannon.txt from "projectile_energy_ball" to "projectile_rocket" seems to fix the nosmoke mod (ie no massive blast particle) but breaks the weapon. moreover it does not work in casual mode (even though it seemed to work on an sv_pure 2 listen server).

the weapon behaved exactly like a rocket launcher with this change, except it did not need ammo, and still had the alt attack, except this attack just fired a regular rocket after charging.

"ProjectileType"  	"projectile_rocket" // ORIGINALLY projectile_energy_ball

I tried to make the Dragon's Fury look less obnoxious using this method but had no luck. If anyone else wants to give it a shot here is a copy of the stock weapon scripts since the old downloads didnt include it. The name is tf_weapon_rocketlauncher_fireball.txt.

anyone got a working version for dx9

Short answer: "nutsnbolts_repair" and keep an eye out to make sure it doesnt cause anything fucky like env_rain_001_mist. Also that download in the quoted post has objects.txt which increases teleporter costs so if youre going to use that download edit or delete objects.txt.

I tried nutsnbolts_repair on a local server and saw no visual particles and didnt notice my frames dropping or anything so hopefully it works. Also personally I wouldnt remove sniper's muzzleflashes since his hitscan leaves no tracer.

Long answer: To more easily test particles I extracted the particles folder from tf2_misc_dir.vpk and launched TF2 using the -tools launch option. Once its launched go to Tools>Particle editor then use Open to navigate to any of the .pcf files you extracted. This should let you see the multiple particle effects in each pcf. I just looked for some that appeared to have no visible effect, FYI for some reason some look like they have no effect in the editor but actually have an effect in game such as bullet_tracer01. Restarting TF2 to test is slow as fuck so this helps minimize that as much as possible when looking for a suitable particle effect.
