Newbs Daily Needs Your Drawings… Team Fortress 2 will never be the same again

Posted on: March 26th, 2010 by octo dhd

I’m not sure if everyone has got a chance to check out our twice a week webcomic yet – if you havn’t please check it out @ http://www.tf2newbs.com/daily/ – Team Fortress 2 Webcomic. We have a handful of active script writers and a couple of active artists, but we could always use more. So if you’ve been trying to figure out a way to give back to the community a little bit, this is the perfect chance.

Even if you aren’t a great artist, and just like to doodle some we are interested in having you help – I will hand color your art in MS paint if thats what needs to be done. =) If you aren’t good at art, but are good at posing in GMod you can use that to create the strips.

There are no minimum per month commitments, so don’t worry if you don’t have a lot of time, we just want to have a healthy pool of talent to spread the load between.

All contributors will get full credit and acknowledgement for their contributions. On top of this I will offer any of our community based perks to contributors. This includes things like reserves, hats, advertisements for events or services, etc.

If you are interested in helping, join the Newbs Daily TF2 Webcomic Steam Group – or contact me on steam (Octodhd on steam) – you can leave a note on my comments and I’ll get back to you.

Console In Plugin

Posted on: March 15th, 2010 by cmptrwz

I got tired of having to find odd places on my keyboard to assign G-Keys to on my Logitech keyboard in TF2.

I wanted to be able to bind my G-Keys to build and destroy buildings and to specific disguises.

So I wrote a simple plugin (see link below) to enable that. Extracted to the tf folder, normally found in
<steam install dir>\steamapps\<username>\team fortress 2
it will create a “Named Pipe” whenever the game is running. Dumping commands into this pipe will run them as though you typed them into the console directly.
