Concept-Style Smoker

A recreation of the Smoker seen in concept art for Left 4 Dead.

Title: Concept-Style Smoker Credits: Revenant100 aka Marphy Black (smoker skin edits), Valve Software (original smoker texture)

Description: One day I was browsing through Left 4 Dead concept art and I came across the Smoker's. I was like, "Woah! His shirt is orange!" That totally blew my mind, so I decided to make this, hence the "concept"-ness.

    but for some reason when people get tongued the tongue wrapped around them is purple, anyone else gettin this?

    I recently ran into this same problem as well. I believe Valve may have silently updated the pak01_dir.vpk file, thus causing problems with people who have edited and are still using the old vpk for their custom skins.

    My suggestion is to download a new pak01dir.vpk file. You can do this by deleting (or renaming) your current vpk file and then using "Verify integrity of game cache" option in Steam on Left 4 Dead. Be aware, though, that this will revert other mods you may have installed. Once you've done that, just edit the new pak01dir.vpk to reflect the custom skins you have.

    Posted by Revenant100 Are you certain about this? I checked the files and the upgraded dispenser models still use the same texture as the original level one. The new addition doesn't have any logo on it to replace.

    Yeah, unless they fixed it. I noticed that when I upgraded my Dispenser that the beta-style logo turns into the regular one. It's no biggie anyway; it's not like upgradeable dispensers are beta.

    It's cool to hear that you still have some beta TF2 stuff coming, though. It would be really kickin' if you set out to do a proper Heavy. That, for me, is the last piece I'd like to have in my beta-style setup (other than beta HUD icons, but most of those are already beta anyway...silly Valve).

    You need to calm down.

    Posted by Shugo Takahashi I was wondering though; were you going to finish up the TF2 beta-style set?
    The only other skin that I've nearly completed is a Beta-Style Demoman. However, I'm currently separated from my source files, so I can't release it right now.

    the new Dispenser models have their own textures that need the beta RED logo.

    Absolutely amazing. Revenent100 strikes again with some brilliant mashings of beta work and the finished models.

    I was wondering though; were you going to finish up the TF2 beta-style set? There still isn't a proper Heavy (for many reasons) and the new Dispenser models have their own textures that need the beta RED logo.

    Oh gawd, what am I going to do now, between this and the ciggarette smoking man I have no ability to make a choice!

    I don't seem anything wrong with the belt because if you darkened it then it wouldn't match the rest of the skins tone.

    Good work!

    EDIT: Looking at it again ingame, the belt could be darkened to add a bit more flavour. His shoes are definately darker in tone as well so it wouldn't hurt the overall look of the skin.

    Pros: Almost an exact match to he concept art. I personally like it better than the default. Cons: Like the Sephiris said, the belt needs to be a lot darker then what it is now. Other than that I see nothing wrong. Improvements: Darken the belt. Notes: Man, that thing DOES have a big tongue!

    Hey, nice job on this reskin, the color scheme matches perfectly to the concept smoker. One suggestion I might make (very minor) is that in the concept it looks like his belt is a bit darker than this reskin, almost a black color. You have pulled this off nicely regardless, good job.
