Alpha 3 of Disposal has been released! After a long time on the backburner, it has been given a minor detailing facelift, layout changes, and finally sinks that 200 pound slipgate. Get on fragging and remember to turn on your Geiger counter! #openfortress #mapping tf2maps.net/downloads/dm...

You can see my progression from the earlier ones, as well as the earlier ones in this batch. Might redo the oldest ones to fit more in line with my newer approuch.

A new thing, a loading screen for @greeeenie.bsky.social 's newest version of Advent. I gotta get some more of these done for the newest version of the mod. I got one done, but I want to make at least two more before the next release. #openfortress

"You'll need me to activate the retinal scanners!" Sadly, these ones don't work properly, as there is testing today instead of a rocket launch. #snarkingmypit #snarkpit #openfortress

Reflections my beloved. :) (Big thanks to Pigeon for providing the water used to make this work.) #snarkingmypit #snarkpit #openfortress

"Morning Mr. Freeman, looks like you're running late." An out of bounds area for the next update of Snarkpit, inspired by a certain area in the Black Mesa Research Facility. This actually takes elements from both the Half Life 1 and the Black Mesa version. #snarkingmypit #snarkpit #openfortress

I love adding these kind of things to maps. An small peak at an update for Snarkpit. Posted elsewhere, but not on social media before. #snarkingmypit #sorryfortheabove

A fun little TF2 Beta/Leaked content fact I don't hear many people talk about: During the 2023 Gigaleak, the animations that were used in TF2's Trailer 1 were included. This version has only 30 frames compared to the 96 that the one in-game uses, also notice Engineer's grip on his right hand.

If anyone who sees this likes TF2 cut content and TF2 mods, I just released one that recreates the leaked "vs" icons for Arena mode as a class portrait mod. I'm not a cop, so you don't have to check it out if you don't want to. If you do though, the link to is here: gamebanana.com/mods/495817
