FAQ:
Q: How did you make that? What editing software do you use?
A: I use Adobe Photoshop, Premiere Pro & After Effects. Photoshop for image editing and thumbnails. Premiere Pro for compositing and After Effects for motion graphics (the fancy animations).

    >deletes 70% of the game files "for some reason animations are now incredibly broken"

    3:41 No matter how often it comes up, it still cracks me up that basically every Valve game is a mod of Half Life 2.

    "Did you notice that? The wrangler laser IS STILL BLUE, OooOoOoOOoh. It has no textures, that damned laser IS the pinnacle of source spaghetti." - Lazy Purple, probably

    I like how it went from "tf2 can't run without the coconut" into "tf2 can't run without the COW"
  • @Melis-Isil
    Other Games: Nooo! You can't delete that empty txt file! Chad TF2: You can delete %70 of the game.

    4:56 surfaceprops also determines how slippery a surface is, so you will slide around on ice. It makes sense for the game to refuse to load if it doesn't know how you're supposed to move imo
  • @teatanks6481
    It says a lot about Valve's map design that even when the game is a textureless mess of pink and black, you can still identify maps and their segments perfectly.

    Broke: "Deleting this coconut crashes the game." Woke: "Deleting 2fort Cow crashes the game."
  • So long as we have different step sounds, actual player models, Cow.png, and the blurry picture of HL2, we have tf2. Glad to know this game could survive a nuke and still make more sense than it does in it current state.

    Broke: "deleting a coconut will make the game unplayable" Woke: "Deleting footstep sounds will make the game unplayable"

    "We buffed the medic by making the game crash everytime you kill one"
  • @mohammed-wp5wz
    "killing the medic crashes the game" looks like SOMEONE at valve was too lazy to model a court scene for violating the geneva convention.
  • The distortion effect without the texture genuinely looks really cool. Like an earthbound battle background.
  • Man someone should make like a challenge out of this, load into a causal server and every kill you get a file back.
  • @vilkillian
    "Killing medic immediately crushes the game" I bet you could hear him scream: "ai aaam a god!"
  • @anuel3780
    7:09 "for some reason, animations are now incredible broken" TOTAL MYSTERY TO WHY THAT HAPPENED
  • @ripp_
    "A programmer decided to draw the line there" More likely the programmer never thought someone would start deleting files and didn't think it was nesseary to put in a check/fallback
  • @staryoshi06
    The reason that some assets "fall back" to a hl2 asset is because they have the same name. It's why when you load tf2 maps in gmod the textures will sometimes look wrong.
