Well, I'm stuck trying to write my story. Since I can't seem to continue on it, I'm going to try my hand at movie making. I've written it all out(Another script type story I had finished while working on Dirty Deeds), and I made a storyboard through Garry's Mod.
Garry's Mod, I don't know how people can make videos out of that. That's insane. I ran into so much trouble with it. Then again, I'm trying to use it outside of its abilities without the proper plugins.
Well, a majority of the storyboard is done. I took all of the screenies. I was being lazy when I made them so I don't have any facial expressions on them. They're really poorly done, but I do like some images I took with the Administrator with Spy's Ambassador.
Its only a small section of the story I'd like to use. I don't want to spoil it or release little details because every time I type it out, it sounds wrong. Just wrong. I'll leave it at TF2 Video. Yea, that sounds good.
Anyway, I'd like to animate it in 3DS Max, finally got it. Its the 2010 Version, but it should work. Fingers-crossed. Just need to see if all the other stuff I needed works.

True work, is never finished...
So, I made a Prologue/Epilogue for Dirty Deeds. Explains how it all started and that I want to make it continue, but not call it Dirty Deeds anymore. I haven't come up with any ideas on how I want it to continue so its currently on hold. The continuation of the story is on hold, not the Prologue/Epilogue. I have that all finished and looking nice. The ending was the only thing on it that changed the most.
Originally, I had the President come in and murder everyone with 'psychic' powers but saw that as too... exotic for the story, but it was the only one I had come up with at the time. Eventually, I just had it to where he plans on stopping his son, and once again, try and re-unite the people of Teah. No psychic powers, no unnecessary deaths. Just the president doing what he did again, years ago.
I still need to work on it though. The prologue parts seem too small to be of any significant details other then a betrayal. I tried to point out that the President was a nice guy before his wife was assassinated and I don't think I conveyed that point well enough. The visual of how he was affected when she died I believe will be a different story. I'll have to brain storm some more before.

More and more bickering...
Just finished typing up my Dirty Deeds story to Deviantart. Had to re-type it because I was being stupid and deleted the original. I'm just glad I printed it off before I did that. Took me too long to write it and I know I'd never get it back to how it was if I didn't have a copy.
Its called the Dirty Deeds pt 1 RnR Edition. RnR = Revised and Rewritten.
I added a few stuff that I originally didn't have. Like, at the end, instead of him just looking at the empty frame, he takes some of his 'medicine' that he mentions in pt 3 then he looks at the frame. Still pondering if I should create a prologue. Originally 3 was to be it, but it didn't quite work out how I wanted it to as it was already longer then I wanted it to be and at one point took a drastically different turn. Which remind me, I need to print it off so I have a hard copy of that also.
My picture I need to redo. I the picture I posted here on the blog, I'm not liking the wife. She looks too modern now and its driving me crazy. So I've taken a slight break to find out how I want her to look at the moment.
And another thing. I only just realized that the set hats were not the problem. It was that Valve, making TF2 Free to play on the PC meant that 100% for certain that they had abandoned the console counter part. Played a little of the F2P profile, Which is No Hats, not Wuollet24. Its so limited that you need to buy something in order for you to experience the entirety that is TF2. It was a pretty good chance that if you were a F2P player, you are going to buy something from the store.
So thinking about it now doesn't upset me as much anymore, even though it does at a level. It was just something I had latched on to in order for me to say, That I want to boycott. Because deep down, before the update, I knew that Valve was never going to update the consoles. Its just that I had that little bit of hope that maybe I was wrong. Well, now its dimmer then it was before.
Because, even though it might be just my SPUF paranoia coming around but they had added some files to the xbox_reslist in the files of TF2. Who knows. Maybe (and this is a HUGE maybe) that with all the money they make in the Mann Co store, they might had some features to the Consoles.
And if they just released the updates, I would happily pay for them. I don't think Valve knew that. The xbox players are willing to pay for the update. You just need to offer it.
Alright, I;m off to bed. Is 12:37 I need to get up in the morning to get back to work.
