Yes, you can also get a key for around 2.44-2.66 in metal (2 refined 2 reclaimed being 2.66), there's a small chance of unboxing an unusual hat (with a particle effect), these can be quite expensive.

Speaking of unusuals, I unboxed two yesterday. I unboxed an unusual smoking Private Eye and an unusual orbiting fire Buckaroos.

Dont know if Im off-topic or not, but does anybody here have a Chieftains Challenge for Soldier? I can give you four vintage weapons, two refined metals and three creates (2x #37 + #24). This is the last item I need for my complete happiness. If you want to trade send me a PM and I will give my Steam ID :)

You'd be overpaying :) you can easily get this hat for 1.66 ref which is 1 ref + 2 rec, there are some people selling it on tf2outpost.com

I know. And Ive already got my hat for that price.

But you know what? I dont regret! :) Im just happy because I got what I wanted. Those vintage weapons were duplicates, I wouldnt use them. Those crates? I will never pay a single buck for an ingame item (I bought the game, btw). And that metal? I trade it for crates. :)

I just want to play Soldier. I want stock rocket launcher, stock shotgun and Equalizer. And that hat. I dont want anything else. So, I made a good deal :)

I haven't played TF2 since around Halloween 2011.

Any big changes/additions etc. in the last four months?

Well the Christmas update was quite major. Check out patch notes here. http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Australian_Christmas_2011

And from there a few items were added afterwards, mostly cosmetic (This is TF2 after all).

Question for you guys. I just started playing after a long hiatus. I noticed that when killed, the weapon of the person who got me sometimes has kill stats etc. Is there anything special I need to do for that to show up on my weapons, or is it something that only the enemy will see?

This has been my game of choice for a while now. I'm loving it. It's really addictive. :o

I was playing on a server and managed to trade someone a Short Circuit and a Force-a-Nature for a Strange Sydney Sleeper. Was this a good deal since it's my first experience with getting a strange weapon in a trade?

Pretty much, Sydney sleeper is not in demand much, so it's pretty cheap.

I recommend this for price checking purposes:

And be careful, I'm approaching 2k hrs playing this game ;]

I don't even really play anymore, but I still idle every week to get new items in case I ever want to get back into the game. Just this weekend I found one of the salvaged crates, traded some refined for a key and unboxed a strange sapper, one of the most valuable Strange items :) I get almost the same enjoyment playing trade fortress, as I did actually playing Team Fortress :rofl:

Anytime you can trade two regular weapons for a strange it's a good deal. Sydney Sleeper isn't really a great strange, but still a good deal for just two regular weapons.

    • Hello, It would appear so, according to https://finance.yahoo.com/news/how-to-hide-your-home-on-google-maps-apple-maps-204146687.html. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky      
    • Hello, The Nvidia Founders Edition 3080 video card is approximately six years old, correct? Have you looked into whether replacement fans are available for it? Perhaps replacing those will improve cooling, especially when combined with cleaning the card's heatsink and replacing the thermal interface materials. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky  
    • 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
