I tried it, its REALLY weird.
This needs to be figured out

To my knowledge, I don't think its possible, because it would involve a custom sound file.
But Enforcer/Diamondback/Bazaar Bargain to Shotgun is beautiful.

How do you convert .ctx to .txt, or edit .ctx files?????

It looks like valve patched it before it even happened haha.

never. NEVER.
jk thanks.

My first guess would be yes, but as of now I don't know where the direct hit file is, and I've only tried Direct Hit to RL.
but that's another change that I loved to death, its 10/10 worth.

So, I actually saw in the No Explosion Smoke Script that they had mentioned sounds in the .txt files.
Kind of brings me back to the time I 'discovered' changing weapon sounds for the first time, made a thread about it, BUT I THOUGHT IT WORKED IN SV_PURE 2 AND IT DIDN'T. Oh god, the cringe.

I replaced the sound files shown in my direct hit file with the one in my rocket launcher file, and it ACTUALLY changed the sound and BYPASSED sv_pure on valve servers.

If you think I'm lying, try it for yourself.

I initially thought of just posting this into the other thread about the no explosion smoke script, but then I kind of thought about it and then decided that it deserves its own thread.

I would appreciate it if someone would let me know where to find all the weapon files. There are a TON of sound changes I've tried before, and have absolutely adored, most of which involve the enforcer's sound.

I also feel like I hit 200% more things with the Black Box's sound on the Rocket Launcher.
There's some real placebo over 'ere I tell ya.

NOTE: If this is actually common info and I'm a retard, am very sorry :(.

I haven't seen anybody mention it, so I thought it might be worth mentioning.

How do I get RED and BLU buttons in my backpack? I can't find a legit answer anywhere.

While experimenting with my resolution, I've found that 4:3 keeps everything closer to the center and is easier to focus with. It honestly feels pretty nice playing with.

This thread to me is really about Feel vs Numbers
screw placebo.

another placebo, it made it feel more smooth.

Also, I never said I perform BETTER with viewmodels off, because I don't. I actually think I perform DIFFERENT, which is why I toggle viewmodels when I'm dying alot/losing on scout.

To me, this thread still has a valid point, even if lots of the things are not placebo. The point was to see if people go solely on numbers, or also judge based on their feels. There really shouldn't be a debate on whether x is placebo, because its just a simple poll to see how the people on this forum think.

Judging by your posts, you along with Comanglia seem to be people who only rely on numbers. Am I wrong?

If you're talking about horizontal ctap, then that actually isn't placebo. Since the rocket launcher is to the right, you can move your aim 90 Degrees and be aiming behind you using the rocket launcher, which makes horizontal ctap easier vs the original, where you have to move 180 to properly shoot behind you.

PLSSSSSSSSSS plat on solly.

rip my hubris.

screw that, I just tried r_drawtracers_firstperson 0 and it feels great.

The Original vs Rocket Launcher thread back there kind of reminded me of a thread I wanted to make, and it was about placebo. Over the past couple of days, I've really been wondering how people take their feelings of placebo. I usually do take my feelings of placebo into account when I make decisions in TF2. For me, these feelings of placebo include:

1. The original makes me feel disoriented
2. I can't hit things with the original.
3. Raw Input makes my aim feel different vs Windows 10 + MarkC Mousefix (http://donewmouseaccel.blogspot.com/2010/03/markc-windows-7-mouse-acceleration-fix.html)
NOTE: I have heard that there is some evidence pointing to the fact that Valve's raw input has unavoidable smoothing, this one may actually not be placebo.
4. Toggling my viewmodels on and off changes my scout gameplay
5. m0re's config feels a lot smoother to me than chris/comanglia's.
6. Placing my forearm on the edge of the table and keeping my arm straight gives me better reaction time and higher APM than resting my palm on a palmrest/the table.
7. Claw grip gives me way faster reaction times
8. The Null-Void Movement Cancel script when used in a certain way is a game-changer for scout. The movement patterns I create with this allow me to play on-par with and sometimes even beat scouts in DM and MGE gamemodes with hundreds of hours more than me, despite only having 30 Hours on scout.

As you can see, I actually base a lot of things off of 'placebo'. About none of these are proven to make any difference at all, but I perceive a difference myself and think its worth doing it for the feeling.

I was just wondering what the personal relations actual good players have had with placebo, and what they think of it.
Most of anything that's unproven to make a difference counts as placebo in my book.

EDIT: Meant to post this in general discussion. fml.

I thought it was cool to censor yourself with symbols...
