If you want to get more models go to this link
Thanks to RavensBro for providing these models.
Setting up download server for custom models/sounds:
Spoiler
To use bossspawner_downloads.cfg:
Add foldier location like this: (USE forward slash "/" not back slash "\")
models/tf2/mymodels
Example:
If you have files such as: sound/tf2/boss/spawn.wav and sound/tf2/boss/death.wav
1. Open bossspawner_downloads.cfg
2. Add in 1 line: sound/tf2/boss
If you have more files from different folders just add the folder directory and go to next line
You can download chaos_bossspawner.7z pack for examples.
Getting position values:
Spoiler
1. Stand on a position where you want bosses to spawn
2. Type !getcoords
3. Copy coordinate values printed to you
4. Paste it to bossspawner_maps.cfg
5. Optional: If you want a specific boss to spawn elsewhere, set the key "Position" for the boss in bossspawner_boss.cfg
6. Reload plugin
7. Profit???
How do disable auto-spawning and use !<bossname>?
Spoiler
If you want to only use command spawning (!horseman, !monoculus, !merasmus, !skeleton_king, !skeleton_horde),
just set sm_boss_minplayers to 34 or higher. Player count will never exceed 34 so it will never be on.
Now you can spawn your boss with !<bossname>
What the heck, bosses aren't moving!
Spoiler
In your server generate the navigation mesh
1. Type sv_cheats 1
2. Type nav_generate and let it finish
3. Type sv_cheats 0
4. Repeat for each map
5. Profit???

Known Issues:
- When tf_skeleton with a hat attacks you while standing still, his hat model may freeze until he starts moving
- eyeball_boss can die from collision from a payload cart, most of time in air so it doesn't matter too much
- Hat size and offset does not change if player manually spawns a boss with a different size from the config (e.g !horseman 1000 5 1 : Horseman size is 5 but default size in boss config is 1, if this boss has a hat the hat won't resize)
Known Bugs:
Spoiler
Code:
- Horseman axe will NOT glow
- Merasmus will tend to randomly change color from green to normal
- Monoculus can no longer have model replacement due to some complications
- Botkiller and Ghost can not be resized
- When tf_skeleton with a hat attacks you while standing still, his hat model may freeze until he starts moving
- eyeball_boss can die from collision from a payload cart, most of time in air so it doesn't matter too much
- Hat size and offset does not change if player manually spawns a boss with a different size from the config (e.g !horseman 1000 5 1 : Horseman size is 5 but default size in boss config is 1, if this boss has a hat the hat won't resize)

Code:
-Geit for horseman spawner
-DarthNinja for monoculus spawner
-Powerlord for his health bar code
-SoulSharD for weapon model replacement
-r3dw3r3w0lf for resize hitbox code
-RavensBro for his site and models
-abrandnewday for his vanilla config
Seems to work well, though would be nice to have level up for the horseman added
I know the Merasmus & eye boss has it ..
just saying but nice work
p.s
I have this on MvM server by the way works well
for you lots out there that will ask will it run on them..

Re: [TF2] Automatic Halloween Boss Spawner [v1.0]
Love the plugin but would like to recommend something. Perhaps have a ad alert system for chat. Like after the boss is killed inform players that he will return in *depending on what time is set* minutes. If that cant work then maybe a warning system, like 2 minutes before the boss spawns the players will be alerted via chat or HUD.

Odd.. Well is there an early warning system to inform people before the boss spawns? If not that would be neat.
Edit: Till then I will check my logs for possible errors.

Re: [TF2] Automatic Halloween Boss Spawner [v1.0]
warning system before the boss spawns = No
just when you kill him it comes up in chat that's all
may have to wait for Chaosxk see if he has any come back on this
