[MvM] Modding Robot-skins, question^^
Heyho,

first of all, i am new on the forums^^
So heyho @ all of u!

I have a question/problem:
I would like to have the robot-skins in TF2, so that i can play with a robot skin.
Actually i just want the robot-engy-skin, but of course, when it's easier, i also take all robot-skins.

So i downloaded the whole package, and just replaced the "normal" models with the new downloaded ones. But when i am in-game, i still have the normal skins.
Btw, the foler is in: C/program files (x86)/Steam/SteamApps/Common/ Team fortress 2/ tf/ models/player.

and i did, what was in the desriptions. I read texts, watched tutorials, but nothing helped.



Sooo:
Does any-1 know more on that?
what is the difference between players and bots?
Bots are for offline-gaming?

thanks in advance,

irishroy

You need the Robot-Skins in the custom folder because since we got the steampipeupdate they mostly only work right in the custom folder there is a readme.

and which files should i drag and drop?

Hmm.
I made a folder alled "Engy" in the "custom" with all the robot-engineer-files, but it's still not working. Can i convert these things somehow to a .vpk-file?

Thx, it worked. I made a .vpk-file out of them.^^

and nope, i just use robot on engy^^
Qeustion: Can the others also see, that i'm a robot?
(Because normally they can't, but maybe it's different in TF2)

No, it only affects you, and all other engies you see will be robots too.

The server must have the robot plugin thats why its the only thing others can see you as robot.
