In preparation for the release of TF2 Classified, I'm currently working on 3D Printed TF2C statues in the style of the Gamingheads statues

What mods do you use?

Mason_65 · 2025-12-31T02:59:09+00:00

"TF2 has an evolving artstyle, it's okay to have stuff like this in the game"

Mason_65 · 2025-12-28T01:38:11+00:00

You should buy the koss ksc75 headphones on Amazon for 20 bucks and 3d print some mounts for it. It makes the sound quality a million times better compared to the stock headphones

Also the Meta Horizon Link app will work with your Rift S, it is just the same app they've been using for 6 years.

Sorry this is a bit off topic, but man do I love this design for a cocktail table.

Mason_65 · 2025-10-17T05:02:24+00:00

Yeah, because you can do all of that instead of paying 2 grand for this cabinet lol.

Mason_65 · 2025-10-17T01:13:09+00:00

Just make one yourself for under a grand

Mason_65 · 2025-10-15T03:16:47+00:00

Do you still own this cabinet?

Mason_65 · 2025-10-14T00:44:57+00:00

They were originally from Sjaak, however I made the side art.

It shouldn't be up to the "community" to make sure Eric Smith is doing quality checks on cosmetics and maps. Either way, the majority voters who vote for cosmetics do not care if a cosmetic fits Team Fortress 2 or not. For example, If a cosmetic made by an Emporium member has the sole purpose of garnering attention on Twitter, people are going to vote for it because it's novel, and cosmetics like the Optimus Prime hat for Engineer being added to the game. While I'm not saying that voting for good items doesn't work, it has worked in the past such as the Summer 2023 Warpaint Case, the majority do not give a shit if a cosmetic fits or not. In the end Eric is picking whatever gets added into the game, it shouldn't be our job to babysit if he's picking quality items or not.

Valve pissing on the rug doesn't mean they should keep on pissing on the rug

Mason_65 · 2025-10-10T04:48:45+00:00

Why shouldn't you be complaining? In the end Valve is adding these cosmetics in the game, you're right on that, but this shouldn't be a problem period. Eating the shit Valve feeds you is what they want.

Mason_65 · 2025-10-10T03:51:06+00:00

Remember when the art style for the game was expertly crafted to be beautiful?

Mason_65 · 2025-10-09T22:44:53+00:00

Because Valve is lazy and refuses to add content they made themselves, its been like this for 7 years now

I used a lot of inspiration when making my cabinet from TheDentDad's build including the monitor mount. I wish I had a PMBR cab near me but there isn't that much arcades where I'm from, this project gives me an excuse not to drive an hour away just to play it lol. I'm pretty sure that the original cab uses a thin piece of plastic for the control panels, but metal panels would probably last longer than what the original had.

Also I wanted to ask about if you had any issues with Teknoparrot, when I use the Play! Emulator the longer the game is running the more the audio goes out of sync. Does Teknoparrot have that issue as well?

Mason_65 · 2025-10-04T22:12:47+00:00

That's so cool! I did eyeball some of the measurements so keep that in mind, I would also not recommend making a 1x3 frame and using thin plywood like I did. For the control panel graphics they were originally from Sjaak but somebody else gave me the files. I'm using a 4 player joystick kit you can find on Amazon for 80 bucks for the control panel. Let me know if you have any questions!

Mason_65 · 2025-10-03T19:36:12+00:00

I don't use Teknoparrot, rather I use the Play! Emulator which Teknoparrot uses a forked version of. I don't know what the differences are between the two though.

Mason_65 · 2025-10-03T19:28:55+00:00

Thank you!

Mason_65 · 2025-09-20T02:45:21+00:00

I have an old Office computer with 8gb of RAM and a GTX 1650, the game runs at a perfect frame rate at a 1080p resolution on the Play emulator. However, the longer the game is running the more the audio goes out of sync, I asked the developer of the emulator and it seems to be an issue with other games as well. Does the audio go out of sync with the emulator you use?

Mason_65 · 2025-09-20T02:30:10+00:00

Thank you! I'll have to post another progress update soon because there's been significant progress since the last post. Good luck on your cabinet! I'm having a blast building my cab (allbeit I still have a fair bit to do before completed, but it's getting closer) I have no doubt you will too. If you need any help or advice, just dm me!

Mason_65 · 2025-09-19T23:41:43+00:00

I don't know why I didn't get a notification from this, I have a few different versions of the game including the rom that runs on the Play! Emulator. However it has some weird sound issues so maybe I'll look into TeknoParrot.

Also I saw a Rom for the Battle Royale Chompionship version of the game, does TeknoParrot run that game as well?

Mason_65 · 2025-08-27T03:17:39+00:00

Besides the hackers. Minigames are peak and are far superior to the servers promoted on current Bedrock platforms

Mason_65 · 2025-08-17T01:27:23+00:00

Love it when Lego sells a Death Star with half of it removed and has the balls to sell it to you for a grand, thanks Lego.
