Seems to turn some of the hats white, as if painted white: Toque, Whiskered Gentleman, etc.
I have both, both look white, I didn't paint them. wut.

Oh sorry, forgot to update it to v2.
Doing it right now.

Posted: **21 Nov 2010, 08:12**

No, that's the one I downloaded, some of my hats turned white. What...
Yes, I checked the date, and the files. The files actually HAVE the white on them, in the right places. WHAT IS THIS I DONT EVEN...

Posted: **22 Nov 2010, 12:13**

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

.

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.

Ah crud, this one has white Toque too. I'll delete the white files if I can be arsed to go through them to find the white ones...

EDIT: Never mind, this seems to work o.o my moustache is no longer white.

Posted: **25 Nov 2010, 03:58**

Oh btw, for the people who didn't install this yet, this community fix is gonna be officially included in the next (minor) TF2 update, which should be somewhere next week.

Edit: some hats will thanks to that be now paintable, e.g. The Whiskered Gentleman
