Heh, I quite like it, but prefer the hats that are less 'huge' if you get what I'm saying. It's why I like the Trophy Belt and Mining Light.

Yeah, Hero's Hachimaki looks good on a soldier.

Got your Team Captain yet? I checked the prices today, it's really expensive atm :blink:

Heh, I do like it but won't try to get it. Would be nice if I crafted it though as I'm getting close to a craft. I'll be happy with almost anything to be honest.

Double drop rate for items this week:

Also voting is open for the Saxxy Awards finalists. Some of the videos I voted for:

Might also be worth noting the above linked blogpost has an icon of a yet unreleased Medic Syringegun item.

Also that the last time Valve did this was during the Golden Wrench fiasco, it has been rumored over the last month or two that there is something big coming; bigger than anything released before too. So we could be in for something big.

I'd keep an eye out on your consoles for any "GC sent new item schema; updating" messages too; Valve can now push new items or update existing items (At least, their definitions) into TF2 at any time. Just a heads-up incase Valve suddenly start making radioactive killer bonesaws or something appear out of nowhere.

Yes.

Meet the Medic is almost certain to come with the new big release whenever that is, the video itself is complete and has been seen by people who've visited Valve HQ.

The current rumor is that Meet the Medic ties in with this new "Raid mode" that was mentioned in a localisation-string leak from STS.

Something about the Medic operating on a Heavy to create a frankenheavy (which would be the raidmode boss).

I got a random drop of another Tippler's Tricorne, and crafted myself a Brain Bucket, which I love :D

I love the 'Badwater D' entry, and also 'Heavy Endorsing Guy.' Possibly my favourites.

Yeah, these 2 are awesome too.

I'm trying to sell this http://tf2tp.com/trade.php?trade=1719147 , if I succeed I will only need 1-2 ref to buy team captain (goes for 8-9 ref atm), if not I'll try crafting a Medic hat - biggest chance for getting Team Captain, if not, most of other medic hats can be sold with almost no loss :)

No random hats in double drop week for me :(

Something is going on: http://www.teamfortress.com/

Look at the doves. I saw a dove in goldrush a few mins ago. I passed it and was like "what the...?" then i walked near it and it just exploded. Others players are seeing them in game.

From a post in the tf2 forum, not my pic.

Strange. I saw one last night (about 27 hours ago to be exact) on Badlands perched on a rock near the middle point, and thought nothing of it :p.

Is there a game update inbound? Or is this just some ARG for Meet the Medic?

    • Hello, While ~104 GB of space may seem generous (at least compared to other e-readers which have 8-32GB), I feel at this price point the device should have a Micro SDXC card slot for expansion, particularly if it allows audio books to be installed and played. I hope to see more reviews of 6" phone-sized e-readers on Neowin in the future. It will be interesting to see how they compare. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
    • Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 by Razvan Serea Run programs in a sandbox to prevent malware from making permanent changes to your PC. Sandboxie allows you to run your browser, or any other program, so that all changes that result from the usage are kept in a sandbox environment, which can then be deleted later. Sandboxie is a sandbox-based isolation software for 32- and 64-bit Windows NT-based operating systems. It is being developed by David Xanatos since it became open source, before that it was developed by Sophos (which acquired it from Invincea, which acquired it earlier from the original author Ronen Tzur). It creates a sandbox-like isolated operating environment in which applications can be run or installed without permanently modifying the local or mapped drive. An isolated virtual environment allows controlled testing of untrusted programs and web surfing. Sandboxie is available in two flavors Plus and Classic. Both have the same core components, this means they have the same level of security and compatibility. What's different is the user interface the Plus build has a modern Qt based UI which supports all new features that have been added since the project went open source. The Classic build has the old no longer developed MFC based UI, hence it lacks support for modern features, these features can however still be used when manually configured in the Sandboxie.ini. Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 release notes: Added added DisableCustomTitleOpt=[process,][y|n] to allow [#] sandboxie title markers on custom-titlebar windows (Delphi VCL, Qt, Electron) that were previously skipped to prevent DWM repaint CPU loops #5387 Changed updated bundled ImDisk driver to 3.0.2 #5419 Fixed fix Suppress logs for expected non-user SIDs #5422 SbieSvc.exe: SBIE2218/2219 error when run program as administrator #5417 fixed explorer.exe crashes in Application Compartment when Huorong Security is installed #5423 Download: Sandboxie Plus (64-bit) | 23.5 MB (Open Source) Download: Sandboxie Classic (64-bit) | 3.0 MB Links: Sandboxie Website | GitHub | ARM64 | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky  
    • I still use HexChat! Not really as ancient as the 1994 AutoCAD above my post, but I have never found anything better to replace it. Yes we still operate an IRC server https://www.neowin.net/irc/ 😛 
    • At work we still have a couple of people that use a version of AutoCAD LT purchased in 1994. This predates Windows 95 and works fine on versions of Windows up to XP. Its long since run in an locked down isolated XP VM, accessible via RDP. I did install LibreCAD for them, however they said it was just too different to get to grips with. In all fairness one of them is now 75 and the other is almost 60.
