TF2V, what is it? TF2V is a "pre-mannconomy" version of TF2 without the visual clutter and bloat. The only QoL additions is Pyro's airblast and the Engineer building carry. As well as additions of stock gamemodes such as Payload, KotH and Arena
WHERE ARE THE WEAPONS? Development is focused first on bugfixes, If/when that's all done then focus on weapons can be started. However weapons needed to be coded from the ground up, so unless you want to start that for us then don't ask for something not on anyone's radar right now.
Here is how to install revemu on windows, i.e. make it no-steam. Technically this needs to be done once by the guy who releases TF2V for the next version, so that the game will be standalone and run out-of-the-box. But anyone can do it. I have shit upload speed.
In case the link goes down, here is the original source: bir3yk.net/forum/topic_179/. Gonna need full package from 27.04.2016. Then an update from 20.01.2017, it's a single dll, goes into game root.
Start by placing tf2vintage folder in Source SDK Base 2013 Multiplayer, instead of sourcemods. Now Source SDK Base 2013 Multiplayer can be renamed to anything and placed anywhere, I will be calling it game root.
Optional: fire up the game to make sure everything works by creating hl2.exe shortcut and adding -game tf2vintage. See first pic. You won't need that shortcut after this, you can delete it later.
Extract revemu to game root. Second pic is how it should look like.
Shut down steam and fire TF2V.exe.
That's it, make sure everything works.
You can look through rev.ini. But here are the most important things:
Everything should work as expected. Only no-steam servers will show up in server browser. They also need to have no-steam in sv_tags, if I'm not mistaken.
Hopefully I didn't fuck up. I won't have time to test linux client anywhere soon, so somebody else should do it. Ask here for any advice. Linux revemu: bir3yk.net/forum/topic_180/.

SERVERS ONLINE AT TIME OF POST Team Fortress 2 Vintage (2.9.3h2): 104.228.168.228:27015
Tyler Ortiz
If I wanted to host my own server what should I do? Is it any different from a classic TF2 server?
Christian Cruz
SPY IS BACK AND LESS SHIT THAN EVER BEFORE
Easton Lewis
Does anyone still play? nuTF2 makes me sad.
Kevin Roberts
yeah user we play on Fridays and Saturdays usually
Ryder James
sage sage sage
Robert Ward
you okay there?
Levi White
at least try a little Assblaster
Jonathan Jackson
Assuming people know how to replace the bin folders now, then yeah, maybe we'll get a game going tomorrow with more than 3 people
Eli Mitchell
we can only hope
Chase Foster
I'll update the server as 2.9.3h3, I've got to move around files on the server and extract last week's replays. I'm not sure if the green and yellow particle errors occur or the TF2C items in this latest version but once a fairly stable binary is released I can update moddb to 3.0 with the Jungle Inferno maps.
Ayden Bennett
the particle errors are going to keep occurring until someone rips the calls for everything related to 4-team gamemodes out from the code. I haven't bothered dealing with that mess yet
Alexander Turner
haven't played for a while, did you guys release the shitty non-stock weapons?
Sebastian White
I know, and their particles are outdated. I'd rather repack it with the much nicer TIP particle systems that 2.9 had. I just need to find the particles used on maps and cross reference those to see what file to keep vanilla.
Michael Smith
it's just me working on things currently and i'm only focusing on bugfixes so no.
Matthew Bell
>Can't even run Xonotic at a stable 1440p 144fps on my hardware with the lowest settings FPS is oddly close to higher settings at the same resolution, probably a hardware bottleneck This could be interesting.
Liam Scott
the lack of bloat is one of the biggest things TF2V has going for it. It's nice never dropping a frame like in vanilla.
Alexander Jackson
sage sage sage sage this one's for (You)
Evan Baker
i'll make sure too take good care of it
Evan Gray
I GOT THE PARTICLES WORKING
I can just pack them up for when a V3 release is here.
Camden Gray
It's up on moddb.
I've also noticed some people do not know how to install the hotfixes so I took down the install guide. Made it it's own thing again and included parts for installing patches and hotfixes.
There is a way to make models N64 tier if you need that framerate. the issue is server location though,
Juan Morris
Also bach we realized there might be some hold over code that designates a player as a [DEV] which might be tied to their steamID.
You might wanna take a look for that or something.
Hunter Torres
Is it just affecting convar commands? Some examples of what's occurring would help.
Liam Williams
well devanon brought it up that it might tie into a label that appears ahead of them.
He said spoof your steamID to look like this and see if you get the [DEV] prefix. There might be stuff in the code they could exploit.
Nolan Foster
okay i'll look into it. most of the broken shit regarding Valve devs like Robin's rocket launcher are commented out though
Charles Murphy
What I mean by dev I mean the TF2C devs
Jason Anderson
yeah i see that now. it's probably implemented the same way, although i think dev tag is mostly just access to debug commands
Isaiah James
again as a anti-tamper measure I'd like to request a look into it.
Christopher Evans
yeah i'm still going to look into it don't worry. It's probably not anything major though. I'll probably reject connections made from those IDs if anything
Christopher Sanders
What about creating a little game updater/download? It would be a fairly simple thing to do and it could avoid losing player because of the hassle of replacing folders every time.
Robert Miller
While bach was playing around with the binary files, I decided to play around with how whitelisting and file integrity hashes happen in TF2V's files. This means that you'll have a much more secure, much faster loading time for servers and running in various pure levels for TF2V is now possible.
Those fixes won't be added until another content update, or when the binaries begin to stabilize.
Christian Miller
posting from my vita of all things. we'd need someone to make an updater for us. if someone wants to step up and do that, by all means.
Andrew Phillips
Are we playing video games today?
Chase Smith
If you hop on I'll hop on and we can circle jerk with teleporters
Christopher Jones
wont be gome till 930 or so est. are tbere premade patchers we can use for a upfatef

We had a small 3 v 2 going. You can try starting it up again if you want to.
Charles Hall
I wish the level of dead this mods is was choreographed before I wasted my data cap downloading it.
Landon Torres
We've had 6 v 6 regularly for the past few months, people dropping in and out. Could go higher if people would stay for more than an hour at a time.
Thomas Nelson
Why not make a server that forces no items, and if possible, custom effects/that mat_phong thing
Parker Jones
I came into this thread just to say fuck you to you
I think I just got the v3.0 joke. It's still a valve game, so you can never go over 2.9.9.9.9.9-
Anthony Turner
WE'RE STARTING IT UP AGAIN NEGROES GO JOIN THE SERVER

Show me on the doll where the bazinga touched you user
3.0 is going to be released this month, I promise

Brandon Sanchez
Why not get those /radcorp/ identityfag faggots to make it an official game night or run it as an unofficial one? Maybe that would get people to play.
Blake Smith
We've already had a gamenight with them though. Probably not going to be another official one until they cycle through again.
Justin Reed
again doesn't help I'm busy with real world shit. In any case it's good we're getting fixes anyways. I hope we can get v3 out before christmas
Liam Clark
It'll help if we have an actual time organized to play. How about tomorrow Saturday at 6pm est?
Jayden Phillips
I'll be at work till 9pm but sure.
Caleb Scott
If you told me exactly at which hours I'm gonna find anyone on the server, then it could be done.
Benjamin Roberts
Don't forget that tonight is THE NIGHT
Mason Bell
Dude, this is gay as fuck. Like seriously, get a life. Valve made decisions to make more money. This whole return-to-vanilla nonsense is so pathetic.
David Ross
OKAY NIGGERS IT'S TIME. GET IN HERE BEFORE I CALL THE FAG POLICE ON YOUR ASS
Dylan Rodriguez
PLZ DONT
Henry Long
For the anons in game asking about how to make your own dedicated server, use this:
Just download it, throw your tf2vintage folder on top of it and press TF2V.exe to start it up. Configuring the server.cfg and launch parameters is up to you though.
Kevin Anderson

I did two weeks ago, he forgot about it. Then he forgot again at the Vidya Game Awards.
Bentley Diaz
He didn't forgot, it was clearly intentional.
Grayson Lee
Well it single handedly fucked up our chances of placing in the top 100 mods. No publicity means dead mod.
Brayden Jenkins
pretty much.
Carter Robinson
Just installed and it feels so good to see the game precancer.
Michael Myers
Does anyone know if a generic updater that can be configured exists?
Brody Martin

Matthew Campbell
Welp, we didn't make the cut, so we're eliminated from contending in the mod. Thanks Mark you fucking kike for ruining yet another thing Holla Forums made.
Samuel Jenkins
That's ok, we had a normalfag awards show/sony playstation publicity event stickied, all is well.
Christian Green
So, random question…
I love shotguns in FPS, they feel powerful and they sure know how to hurt enemies, and I love that you need to get pretty close to the enemies to actually hurt them, making this a high-risk high-reward siituation. All of this is pretty exciting.
But why shotguns in TF2 don't feel that good? Shotguns are ok, but they don't deliver that excitement for me. I wonder why, any idea?
Easton Roberts
Might be the fact all weapons that are bullet based are hitscan. also it's only 6 or so pellets per shot.
Jeremiah Morgan
What the other user said but also in arena shooters, and tf2 by extension, shotguns aren't the high risk high reward weapon. They serve as the backup, easy to hit but not much damage, role.
That's usually the railgun or in the case of tf2 the grenade launcher/rocket launcher that are the high risk high reward.
Henry Young
SPY CHICKEN ELGS XDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Austin James
game night this week?
Jordan Brown
/fagcorp/ scheduled The Ship for this weekend
Thomas Price
we can still play. I can already see the ship just being really unfun.
Owen Perry
so what were you guys trying to do? top 100 mods? someone being a faggot.
anyways you should do some jewtube pr shit to be discovered.
Benjamin Wright
Tentaspy XDDDDDD
Sebastian Cox
Should read the thread first
Tried, no response from even VNN who loves to suck any potential valve labeled dick.
Jayden Lopez
what about the doom super shotgun?
Nathaniel Taylor
I'm away this weekend, would prefer next week.
Wyatt Jackson
Next week is christmas. but normally gamenights are on the weekend anyways.
Owen Young
Oh right, so it is. What about the weekend after Christmas?
Colton Adams
again every week we try for a gamenight
Evan Wilson
Oh, I didn't realise that's what you meant.
Caleb Sanchez
I saw this exact line back in January and held off on installing because maybe it'd be a bit more low effort. It's now almost another January and "the guy" still isn't here. What is the active community for this, 16 people?
Logan Collins
It's easy enough as is, "next version" has always been thought to be the next major package rather than next patch.
Owen Parker
shameless kike-free bump
Jose Collins
16 or a bit less is about right but it's quality over quantity. Compared to TF2c's furry community I'd take the lower player count.
Jonathan Myers
This user gets it. I'd obviously like there to be more players but it's kinda nice to know everyone by name. TF2c's community is so cancerous we're better of this way, you can even see their butthurt in this very thread
I do wish you guys had gone with a Teamspeak or IRC over (((Discord))), I feel a bit excluded for refusing to be a good goy and use it.
Asher Scott
>I do wish you guys had gone with a Teamspeak or IRC over (((Discord))), I feel a bit excluded for refusing to be a good goy and use it. Yeah, this. I could still make an IRC, but there's next to no point if people are just gonna keep using discord in hopes of attracting normalfags.
Also, game when? Would in an hour or so be right with everybody?
Lincoln Richardson
The goycord isn't a circlejerk really. It's just a place to keep normalfags. Would you really want them coming here?
Also updates are typically posted here first.
Charles Price
Also for the IRC could I put a bug in people's ears for Riot.im which is jsut a IRC client on steroids. I'm suggesting it because not only is it free as in FREEDOM, but it has shit like music and webm embedding, ontop of shit that you'd find in goycord. The downside is the VOIP is very rudimentary and more or less a conference call system.
Lucas Sanders
are the retard devs still planning on adding new weapons?
Lucas Gutierrez
Define "new weapons" because the only weapons that will be added are the pre-mannconomy ones.
Jordan Thompson
I'd rather stick with IRC. It's basic, if there's an unlikely event where there's a need for a voice chat you can go to TS/Mumble. Music and webm embedding is bloat, you can just link those.
David Ramirez
only in looks. it;s an IRC more or less with just a GUI.
Brayden Davis
stop posting pls
also get in the server you cunts it's time
Logan Reed
i-ill be right there user
Brayden Lewis
6 people
Jeremiah Ross
I'll get in if I can make it, I'm pretty busy packing tonight.
If the Discord is for normalfags why can't anons have an IRC?
Isaac Reyes
I didn't say they can't just set one up then.
Owen Kelly
I'll download right now if it works with Linux.
Levi Cruz
My bad then, sorry.

It does. It runs natively. I'm playing on Arch this very moment.

Kayden Miller
windows 10 to my shame and I think I am up to date unless there was something new changed in the last two weeks since I played that I missed

And about IRC, we can hash out the details tomorrow. Think of a name for it until then.
Lincoln Allen
Why not just play regular TF2?
Oliver Flores
Because we require players who have high enough IQ to replace bin folders.
Leo Morris
IRC?
Anthony Rodriguez
Play lobbies, then. It looks like you guys struggle to even get a server half-full.
Eli Mitchell
Her face looks like a potato
Adam Cook
Reaction images from porn can be pretty golden.
William Stewart

Jaxson Reed
Yeah because this seems way more lively.
Anthony Myers
Why not go play retail then?
Because Quantity is clearly better than quality in your eyes.
Also for the IRC just name it Team Fortress 2 Vintage
Kevin Rodriguez

Jaxson Nelson
This is difficult to get into because I was used to 16v16 24/7 Badwater back when I played. It was hell for spies but really fun as engineer.
I just have to keep music on I guess, the lack of bullet/scream cacophonies is distressing.
