Holy 🔥🔥🔥
This cosmetic looks amazing!

i think this is good as it is (restricted to pyro only). Neat cosmetic.

would be cool but i feel like it should also be for engie like some of the other goggle replacing cosmetics.

this is great also if it was allclass that would be cool 2

This is really well done, but it just doesn't seem like it meshes with TF2's style as well as I know it could. Maybe with some minor tweaks (no idea what kind of tweaks) it would fit better?

if this is elite grade absolutely please add this it is so nice looking, otherwise everyones gonna wear it and its gonna be kinda annoying.

OH MY GOD YES PLEASE GIVE IT TO ME I NEED IT NOW

Lovely idea but it doesn't fit.

I really like the idea behind this but i feel it just goes too far into a different style for the game. Instead of the this, why not try making it seem like he has ember eminating from his eyes with a red firey tint from below?

i want to ask this, will this item work on winter wonderland cosmetic? or it just doesnt fit?

love it

TANKS!!!!

That is an another trash cosmetic. Good work!

It this lava is moving then make it static.

Yes Please / Very Interested

at its current state, the flames look more like lava, but I would love to see it added if the flames were tweaked a bit to look more like flames.

Honestly just makes the flames look better and I'll invest all my savings into gambling for this

I think the glasses with flames is the best style, reminds me of the original meet the pyro short.

The flames look very strange. I don’t like them.

interpolated

I think Plain is the best style as the flames look weird and don't make any sense. I think the Plain style, being a lot more simple and grounded in nature, will contrast better with TF2. Great work.

@Pablitho Valve added support for animated textures in TF2 a couple years ago; there's just been very little applications for it, due to the game's limitations.

Seeing standing still images but with the animated flames look so weird. Great cosmetic.

While I get the reference in the name, I think that “Frames of Cruelty” would be a more succinct name for this. If anything that would reference the OST name.

this is great

Ok, that's brilliant.

@Pablitho
Considering we already have Power Spike and Wavefinder, i won't be suprised if we'll get another animated cosmetic somewhere in the future.

it's so cool but i'm not sure if it would be added because it's animated

I'm pretty sure the gifs were recorded with HLMV++, which supports animated textures. While I can't say for sure, I'm rather positive this is how it will appear in game.

Also pyrovision style with rainbows would be cute

Can there be a gif showing what it looks like in the game, I'm very conflicted about how animated effect and although I think this is a very interesting idea, the promos just leave it up to mental imagery of how it'd look seeing a pyro running around with a cartoony looking flame animation put over his lenses.

The 2fort sewers are my home, no. I am in the server of which work in progress images and videos of this being made were posted, and there was to my knowledge absolutely no usage of AI in the creation of this.

The weird animation is because of the limitations of animated effects on items in Team Fortress 2, requiring clever workaround to get working.

ADHD cosmetic, great.

Hi. No. No Generative AI was used in making this item, here is a video demonstrating the effect.

The animation looks less weird from far away but thats to be expected. On a closer look with it these aspects stand out greatly and just seriously make me think AI was used in its creation to some extent

There's (as of recent) nothing wrong with using AI to create something and post it via steam, as Valve is now letting that content onto steam, but if it is made with AI then that should be told to people/put in the items description as it's a bit disingenuous

Was AI used during the creation of the item/animation to any extent? I originally thought the animation just kinda looked funky and a bit off but when i kept looking at it loop and loop there was just these weird parts to it

the way those flames are animated reminds me of how some animated AI generated media kinda moves and flows in a specific direction whilst its being animated. Like those Will Smith/US Presidents eating spaghetti memes

the tips of the flames just kinda zip to places before disappearing like electricity or something

the flame parts at the top part of the glasses, they just appear without being connected to any other part of the flame/animation. If they were embers they would move but they don't, they're just stagnant. There's one that looks perfectly like an up arrow

the animation looks AI generated

YIPPEE, LOVE IT !!!!!!

so cute!
