Taunts
- Demonstration video Danimations (talk) 3:08, 20 December 2020 (CST)
- There a few things wrong with the demonstration:
- 1. The demonstration does not show all class animations.
- 2. Overall it seems like the demonstration was very unorganised, it looks like you're running all over the place instead of having a plan of what you're doing.
- 3. It appears your quality settings are too low, as (even at 1080p) it looks quite low quality compared to other demonstrations (Specifically it looks a lot like AA is very low).
- 4. The HUD should not have "contracts available/inactive", and it should not have the top HUD element either.
- 5. The bot's name should use the consistent "Friendly [classname]" pattern (Unless it's an enemy).
- 6. It looks like there is blood on a box on the left, this is not there by default and should be removed using
r_cleardecals
.
- 7. It appears you're missing a texture/several textures, the windows are tinted purple (Which does not happen normally), the settings room at the top at ~0:39 shows this very clearly.
- 8. You're using minimised viewmodels, which is never used in demonstrations (Which is a consistency thing).
- I've ordered these from most important to least important.

Is this good? (I'm getting to other classes but I just wanna make sure I dont mess up.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CyQb_JRGogQ Danimations (talk) 21:51, 20 December 2020 (CST)
- 1. It's still with a low AA
- 2. You should focus also the teammate and the enemy when taunting, only from the right
- 3. You must wait a few seconds before start to moving
- 4. The backpack scene is a bit long
- 5. Between scenes, you need to wait a bit.
- 6. As Grampaswood said, you need to organize what will you do. The "cannot taunt in these situations" scene is unorganized.

- Hi there and thanks for the demonstration video. All of the above is good feedback. I'd add that the audio was a bit crackling in the first version (some voice lines seem to have a gap in their playback), seems fixed in the second version though. Not sure if you've changed anything, but if not, then it's probably a random occurence to watch out for in future versions. I agree with the approach of iterating with just one class until that version is perfect, then moving on to adding the other classes. Good luck :) — Wind 05:33, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
- 3rd times the charm right? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfNzFf6ptHA (P.S if there are any audio issues they're just rendering issues that I can fix later.)Danimations (talk) 22:15, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
- 1. You forgot to disable the team status display. 2. The "cannot taunt in these situations" is a bit short. 2.1. Preferably, for the "You are too high for any..." scene, do it in the spawn spot under the red fan (those wooden tables with the red lights). Otherwise, is okay

- 2 taunts per bot is too much. Please just do it once. If you want to showcase both sides of the taunt, use one bot per side, preferably right for the blu bot since it's the one with more space · Ashe (talk) 21:15, 7 December 2023 (UTC)

Sorry this has taken so long, I had to rerecord and re-edit it as I had accidently left on the "contracts available" hud option, I'm new to this so if there are any issues then please tell me and I can correct them at my earliest convenience, thanks :D Po1yb1ank (talk) 10:56, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
- The Loadout views appear to be missing the start of the taunt, make sure to start the Loadout section right when you equip the taunt. It also doesn't need to fade in, just starting as-is is fine. Your settings also don't appear to be the max, particularly the anti-aliasing and maybe the model settings too, be sure to turn everything up to max. Make sure to leave some time between clips, for example the end of the Soldier section to the start of the Pyro section, as well as the Pyro loadout view to the in-game view is very fast. These are not the only instances, though. When a clip starts, try just standing still for a bit, then start moving. When you finish doing the last taunt, simply stand still for a bit. Sometimes you also move immediately after the taunt with the friendly class, try standing still a little bit and then start moving. Try to also show the taunts from the best angle (usually from the side, looking down a bit).
- You can start the clips in front of the barrier if you want, IIRC the config I provided puts you in front of it already. The Spy section seems to miss voice lines too and the ending fade-out is a bit too fast.
| s | GrampaSwood (talk) (contribs) 22:22, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
- My settings are at max apart from anti-aliasing (thanks for pointing that out) and spy just didn't say his lines in the 3 minutes of footage I had recorded but I'll see to correcting the rest. Po1yb1ank (talk) 22:25, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Po1yb1ank If you are going to upload a new link, don't replace the old one. Also, the video is private and I can't access it · Ashe (talk) 22:07, 2 January 2024 (UTC)
- I'm editing the next one and I have reinstated the link. However I have more things to attend to personally at the moment so it will probably be a few days. Po1yb1ank (talk) 01:40, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
- How about this one? Anything need changed? https://youtu.be/Xi_PSpJsL8k Mediarch (talk) 02:46, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
- At the start you can hear the equip sound from clicking the taunt from before the clip is even visible. Start in front of the class rather than behind the barrier, the crosshair can also stay visible. When showing off the animation, do a quick spin around it using the spin bind from the main page, rather than just looking at the side. Some more time between actions would also be nice, for example when doing the taunt with the enemy in the Scout clip, wait a bit before moving to the wall. Best to also re-record to immediately make the jump on the barrier.
- The transition after jumping on the barrier could also be delayed more, as there's not enough time to read it all. In the Soldier loadout, might be best to let him do 2 loops because currently it cuts off quite abruptly. It's also not necessary to show off the "There is something in your way" and "You are too high up" messages twice. The BLU Pyro also teleports, it's fine if they teleport a little bit but this is a very large distance. The adjusting in front of the RED Pyro also looks very awkward. Make sure to keep the angles consistent (either from the right or left only, maybe do the BLU one from the left and the RED one from the right?). The Sniper and Spy intros aren't cut correctly and show part of the inventory (the Sniper clip also suffers from the big teleport). The sound of the actual clip should also fade out together with the ending noise reel as you can still hear the ambience at the end.

Here's v2 Mediarch 25px ♥ Talk ♥ My Edits 01:10, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
- I think the music may be a bit too loud, as the noise from the reel is quite loud. For future demos: it's not necessary to cancel the taunt before making the other class taunt, simply spinning > taunting should be fine. You seem to look at the ground a lot too when starting, though you don't have to redo it for this reason imo, just note that in the future just looking straight ahead is best. Spies should also ideally hold the Revolver instead of the Knife.
| s | GrampaSwood (talk) (contribs) 20:40, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
- I tried lowering the volume on the music a bit. Also, I was following the High Five demonstration and that demonstration cancels the taunt before making the other class do it so that's why I did that. But I will definitely keep that in mind though for future demos. Mediarch ♥ Talk ♥ My Edits 21:33, 7 April 2024 (UTC)

Cheddar (talk) 22:32, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
- Loadout screen time could be shorter, seems to be a 30 FPS video too? In the clip with the Demo and Soldier you should probably jump higher for the Demo jump. For the Demo sticky jump I would recommend hitting him on the way down instead.
| s | GrampaSwood (talk) (contribs) 23:41, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

- In the first scene, wait a bit more after killing the pyro, and when killing the medic, don't look up so abruptly and make a smaller jump (jump but don't crouch) · Ashe (talk) 17:49, 17 February 2024 (UTC)

Old reservation (21 May 2021)
Focus meter does not need to be fully charged to activate
SMG no longer has the tracers
My submission (Video: H.264 / AVC; CRF: 20; Audio: AAC - 320 kbps):
- (0:07) Basics. I shot Pyro with unscoped shots and uncharged scoped shots, Soldier with fully charged shots, and Medic with half-charged shots while Focused (activated at 2/3 of the meter).
- (1:01) Bodyshot damage at 0% charge (40 damage), around 60% charge (80 damage), and 100% charge (120 damage). Getting 80 damage was so damn hard :(
- (1:09) Same as no. 2 above, but on headshot (150, 300, and 450 damage respectively).
- (1:18) Running speed when scoped and not scoped (as well as running immediately after firing a scoped shot).
- (1:33) Filling the "Focus" meter via kills. Can gain "Focus" with weapons other than the Hitman's Heatmaker and whether or not the "Focus" is active. Focus activated at 100% and filling the meter fully produces a laser-like sound.
- (2:27) Same as no. 5, but via assists.
- (2:53) -20% damage on bodyshot (and unscoped shots). Also, Focus does nothing but firing tracer rounds on unscoped shots.
- (3:08) Focus does not unscope when firing scoped shots (you can still unscope manually). Done at 0% charge and on bodyshot (-20% damage appplies).
- (3:23) Same as no. 8, but on headshot (no damage reduction). Sorry if the timing's a bit off, since the game doesn't allow quickscope headshots, so you can't just hold the primary fire button unless if you are Focused.
- (3:36) Same as no. 8, but at 100% charge, done 3 times.

- Yes, please add that. Another cool clip to add might be one from a third-person perspective while the Sniper is in focus mode, to show the third-person reloading animation and the shooting beam. — Wind 04:40, 1 June 2021 (UTC)

Holy heck. The thirdperson command does not ignore scope when scoped in (which always follows the first-person camera). I cannot do the third-person perspective thing (per Wind's request in the collapsed reservation). — Exaskliri (they/them) (talk | contribs) 15:58, 11 April 2022 (UTC)

- Before uploading, please give your opinion on this: If you shot fast enough, a headshot won't have enough charge to be a crit, but it will be a headshot, and it will do 50 dmg instead of 40. This may be a bit niche, so, do you think you should add this to the demonstration? @Cheddar · Ashe (talk) 00:04, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

Cheddar • Talk 17:34, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
- The first portion isn't quite the "noscope to the body, noscope to the head, quickscope to the body". I believe the one for The Classic does a demonstration on how the first two steps operated against the introduction Pyro. For the Heavy with that bodyshot/headshot + noscope/scope demonstration, you had nailed that part. For the last scene, perhaps it could be tried again because that ammo pack just swung to the Sniper, which didn't make sense in the comparison because the right-hand Hitman's demonstration didn't show that ammo pack swinging into the Sniper to collect extra ammo whereas the left-hand Sniper Rifle demonstration did.

- ... Unfortunately, forgot to reload just before taunting :( So close!
- Also, while the resolution and in-game graphics look good, I can see some video artifacts in the video. Can you increase the bitrate (or reduce the quantizer, if you use that setting) in your video editing tool? I'd expect a good-video-quality demonstration of this duration to be more around 70 to 100 megabytes.
I just uploaded the high quality version (Video: H.264 / AVC; CRF: 20; Audio: AAC - 320 kbps).
- (0:07) Basics (Pyro, Soldier, and Medic). Demonstrating its damage and its falloff, as well as inspect animation, reload animation, and its taunt.
- (0:51) +15% damage bonus per shot. It took one less shot (compared to the stock Pistol) to kill the Demoman at close range.
- (1:01) -60% clip size. I rapid fired this weapon on Heavy at long range and it took longer to kill compared to the stock Pistol.
- (1:12) +25% jump height when active. Compared to the stock Pistol and when holstered (equipping the Scattergun).
- (1:19) Same as no. 4 above, but in regards to distance.

It uses 3D Player Model HUD and inspects the Winger on the first scene (both should be okay). The player name is just "Player" instead of "Scout" (so I won't name an enemy Scout "Enemy Scout") or my nickname, Exaskliri. Split screen scenes now use stereo audio. I also use stock pistol on "+25% jumping height" scenes.
- Ugh. Nope. Forgot damage increase against buildings.

This is my first time doing a weapon demonstration video, so I might have gotten some parts wrong. I tried to replicate the previous video from Exaskliri but I changed 2 things. First thing I changed is that it's a split screen view instead of three screens for when comparing jumps, as I don't really see a reason for adding the Scattergun screen. The second thing is that I added building damage, as Wind said the previous video looked good besides the lack of building damage.
Andrew360 23:08, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
- I can't find the original video, but I believe the third Scattergun screen would have been to demonstrate that the Winger needs to be active for this extra jump height. It's also missing the inspect animation at the start.
GrampaSwood (talk) 11:20, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
- The video by Exaskliri is found if you click expand at the top right of this section, download link for that video is here. Also isn't the default pistol also a way to demonstrate that the Winger needs to be active for the extra jump height? Anyways, I also just realized I had kill sounds on and I didn't show off the inspect animation like you said, so I should have an improved version up soon.
Andrew360 14:42, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
- The Pistol vs Winger shows off that you get extra jump height. The point of the Scattergun comparison is to have the Winger shown > switch to Scattergun, showing that it needs to be active.
GrampaSwood (talk) 14:50, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
- 1. The video lacks crossfade between clips. 2. For the jump dem, i think you should do a split into 3 view where: 1. you jump with the pistol out, 2. you draw the winger and jump with the scattergun, 3. you jump with the winger out. Next. 3. I don't think a building damage dem is necessary, because it isn't damage only against players. i found myself confused in that part. 4. for the damage dem, a split into 2 view where: 1. you have a pistol with only 5 bullets in the magazine, 2. you have the winger. Then you shoot a scout. With the winger, you should be able to kill the scout · Ashe (talk) 22:38, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘Both Winger's and Pistol have the same firing rate.

- The main reason for going to the cabinet was for the HP, Didn't think there was much point in showing self-damage when already injured.

Cheddar (talk) 21:41, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
- Missing a transition between the outside clip and the engi + sniper clip. May also be beneficial to show off that the +25% recharge rate is based on the Sandman, should probably show that off too in an extra clip. Splendid Screen has this too with the Chargin' Targe.

- Looks good, maybe if the Sandman's ball recharges the bauble that could be shown off too now that I think about it. Otherwise, looks good.

┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘The sandman ball does indeed seem to recharge the Wrap assassin though I'm not sure if its intended or not, not sure how I'd capture it as one person.
Cheddar • Talk 18:55, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
- Safe to assume it's intentional. You can have bots mirror your loadout, so just have one mirror your loadout with the Sandman.

Has in-video text when comparing vs. stock Shotgun (can use third-person view instead).
Here's the first version, feedback needed!
Cheddar (talk) 20:39, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
- Instead of recording the whole thing in third person, I would either only showing off at the start of the clip (Splendid Screen's demo, which compares it with the Targe at some point and only shows that in third person before returning to first person) or (preferably) switch to the Shotgun in the clip and then put it away again. Try to also get the exact same positions for the clip with the other Soldier.

- Here's an updated version.
Cheddar (talk) 11:18, 3 February 2024 (UTC)
- Time between clips is a bit long. I would not start with the Shotgun, but instead start with Rocket Launcher > wait the usual time between clips (~1-1.5 seconds I'd say) > switch to Shotgun > switch to Rocket Launcher > wait 0.5-1 second > perform action.

- Use the keybind provided on the main page for slowly turning, it's a lot smoother than manual hand turning. Make sure the 2 clips don't overlap each other, just flick your mouse back to looking at the front rather than slowly moving it during the other clip. Just like the original video, make sure to take out the pistol only once you're going to do the taunt to avoid the clips overlapping. Make sure the clip's audio also fades out with the reel.

I'll take this one, I'll probably also make the speed demonstration bits three way (0%, 50%, and 100%) to show that the speed you gain isn't just when you have full uber Mediarch (talk) 04:58, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
https://youtu.be/BNgSl-Wc5hk here ya go let me know if you have any feedback/changes Mediarch (talk) 22:03, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
- Medic should start facing the front rather than the side, or at least turn him a little bit so he faces slightly to your left rather than being a side view. Wait until the voice line finishes playing after killing someone, as to not make the sound overlap. The 3 Medi Gun clips should take out their Medi Gun at roughly the same time, the middle one lags behind. Looks good otherwise.

Does not show damage against players vs stock or the bleed effect on disguised spies
Here it is, feedback needed!
Cheddar • Talk 17:54, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
- The Spy starts with his Knife instead of Revolver, the Spy looks slightly down from 1 frame to the next during the Disguise clip which makes it look like 2 clips cut together. Looks fine otherwise.

- The framerate is very low, maybe try to reduce your video settings. - Thedop 17:27, 22 April 2019 (UTC+1)
- It's 30fps, how is that "very low"? windpower was okay with 30fps before. Naleksuh (talk) 23:37, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
- Well, maybe it's just me. - Thedop 08:40, 23 April 2019 (UTC+1)
- I agree with Thedop. The demonstration itself is very good, but the framerate is low which makes it look very choppy. That's my two cents at least Zeklyn (talk) 06:59, 23 April 2019 (UTC)
- i dont know if i have the raw video files anymore but i might try exporting in a higher fps Naleksuh (talk) 15:49, 23 April 2019 (UTC)
- A video might be 30 frames per second, but what matters is the number of *distinct* frames per second. If a video has 30 frames per second and every set of 3 frames is identical, then it may be technically 30 frames per second, but to the eye it's actually just 10 frames per second.
- This video is definitely in the "too low framerate" category; if you're not convinced of that, compare the Axtinguisher swing animation in 0.25x speed on your video vs the current video and count the number of unique frames of the swing animation that you can see. You can actually count them in your video, which means it's too low framerate.
- Also, the fade in/out of the 3-way split-screen has overlapping clips, i.e. each clip is transparently bleeding into each other. One easy way to solve this is to render a separate video with the 3-way split-screen rendered with no fades at high quality, then import that video as a single clip into the main video, and add the fades there.
- Lastly, please add a second or so after the 3-way split-screen clip, as it currently ends before the last damage number finishes scrolling off. — Wind 00:37, 20 May 2019 (UTC)
I have a question before doing this one:
Should I show off that even players immune to afterburn (Pyros/Danger Shield Sniper)? Like on a Pyro being actively burned can still get hit with the Mini-Crit (Its damage is based off of afterburn, if Pyros are immune to afterburn some people may think it means there is no damage bonus). If yes, can I do it with the Degreaser for faster switch speed or have a secondary Pyro ready?
GrampaSwood (talk) 18:00, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
- Sure, sounds useful to show. I think showing it on the Pyro is enough. — Wind 04:11, 24 April 2020 (UTC)
