Well, care no more, because Daimao from Facepunch has been working on a new fix which improves the textures, faulty lightwarps, and more!

OK, I think I finally have the right V2. Try it out.

Edit: It's still the same file, although I don't experience the problem you have with any of my hats.


Edit2: You can just go to C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\[your name]\team fortress 2\tf\materials\models\player\items and:
- go to the map heavy and delete all files with heavy_stocking in the name.
- go to the map pyro and delete all files with monocle_lens or monocle_whiskers in the name.

Again, sorry for the mess, this didn't happen to me, so I didn't know :neutral: .

Nope, that V2 should fix it, I knew about the heavy_stocking files, I was just too lazy to go through all hat materials deleting those that were white.
Yay for daimao and his timely fixes! I'll check the vtf's when I get home, they should be correctly colored now in v2.
Mini tanks, egonny.
