Random Hats for a Random Gamemode
« on: September 02, 2012, 05:45:39 am »
Now that we have this wonderful new Randomizer server, I think what we need are some random hats to go with it! I'm not entirely sure what the plugin is for the random hat on loadout is, but I know it exists. I'll update with info as I acquire it.

The problem with hats is that they'd be invisible on players.

See: https://secure.voogru.com/petition/

In the 1.0.8.6 TF2 update, Valve implemented a new policy that prevents server modifications from attaching entities to players, as of this update entities attached to the player are invisible to players.

Valve made it so that items given to players that they don't own are invisible, which is why weapons are invisible in Randomizer.

I'm not sure how we could get a plugin like that to randomize hats.

It would be hats in your inventory I believe, not random hats throughout the entire game. If that makes any difference.

Not sure if such a plugin is possible to make, or if it exists.

I'll give you some videos I saw where it was in effect.



You can see that the classes aren't wearing their own class hats. I don't know what sort of black magic goes on, but its pretty cool.

Go to 2:30ish and you'll see him showcasing the plugin as well.

Bump for hope of random hats.

No dice on this for now, as I have no idea how I'd equip random hats on players.

FlaminSarge is the creator of the current version of randomizer, and his hat functionality isn't public.
