Davedvch Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 What do you want to see? - A new player model for the technician job. Why should we add it? - I've been told by many people today and for the last week that the model currently used for the technician job is ugly, low-res, and overall doesn't fit into the server's aesthetic at all. I've looked over the workshop and I think I found one modification that should cover this issue, however I fear that it may not be added in order to keep the server's stability. What are the advantages of having this? - A lot of people seem to make fun of technicians for having the ugly player model, which might scare new players away from the division entirely (in order to avoid bullying and such). By using this add-on, though not assured, it should cover the issue and allow people to safely come into the technical branch without fearing looking like a level-2 sex offender. Who is it mainly for? - Mainly for technical, so that we don't look like we're about to abduct you in a white van.

Gunther Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 The old model looks like an Anonymous Hacker if his mask was his face. The file size on the new one might be too big.

CanOBeanz Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Technical has been in need of a new player model for awhile, the current model causes a few issues with our branches' appearance and interaction with other players: We don't look very respectable due to the creepy grinning face & goofy moustache We are often the subject of recurring jokes about being overweight People seem to expect us to be mingy due to our appearance, which in turn attracts mingy people to want to join the branch A large part of the perception of a branch undeniably comes from how the branch is visually represented, and we've had to battle against a mingy branch perception for a long time. I think getting this other model approved could do great things for how we are seen when we're wandering the halls and setting up work sites for RP. Reaper tried to get this skin approved when he was HOT before; This model seems to be a thing that keeps coming back up that people would enjoy seeing added. I am a huge supporter of this idea, although the filesize is going to maybe be a hard get. Either way, I think a change in playermodel or addition of a second more serious playermodel is something that we could really benefit from in Technical, seeing as the branch is starting to grow in size a little bit and we're trying to take things a little more seriously now. I think this model could definitely help technical be taken a little more seriously in RP. +Support O5-9: "Misfortune" A.K.A. "Mr. Unlucky" "Accidents Happen-- Mostly to me!"

Davedvch Posted January 3, 2020 Author Share Posted January 3, 2020 I apologize for bumping threads, but if the file size is too big; I think I've found a model-pack that cuts the size in half. It's a HL2 beta playermodel pack that contains something that looks like technicians within them. If this gets rejected ill post a new app with the smaller addon.

Like the orange command model that really looks like d-class? On another note: +support It looks similar, but it's not the same model. Engineers have this one (not sure if this is the exact model pack but this does contain the model for sure): https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1664236076&searchtext=black+mesa Engineers have more of a bright orange jumpsuit with russian text on the back, and slightly brighter orange sleeves. The proposed pack in this thread has a darker tan jumpsuit with orange sleeves. Also different helmets which look way better. I'd honestly be down to take this pack and use the orange suit model in it to replace the current engineer/low command skin, and let the non-command technicians use the green jumpsuit skin. This could be a good compromise for the 66MB filesize if we were to remove the command playermodel in favor of this pack / using the orange suit skin from this pack. This would also be nice because Tech command would stop getting lit up on sight by MTF/Security forces because of our passing resemblance to D class. (The tan/orange skin from the proposed pack looks a little more visually distinct from a D class imo) Either that or we'd probably let the senior techs use the orange skin while all other techs use the green one, if we kept the current command engineer skin in addition to adding the new pack.

Igneous Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Denied. The SCP-RP SMT has decided against adding this suggestion for performance reasons, the benefit to the server, or another unstated reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
