I still hope this gets added eventually.

AUTHOR, add this to a Community Fix pack, ASAP!

shame this'll never be added, really great stuff

and every time i see a fix for warpaints i will say yes at the second

I like it mostly but it kinda ruins my stock wrench skin so it looks way worse now. i feel like a lot of the changes are good but most of the ones which remove the wood stock are subjective

(1/2)
Would be possible to make a fix for the stock weapons pre-Decorated Weapons update? I don't know if there's a real way to fix them that wouldn't change how War Paints would look like, but I don't really like how the team-colored parts of the Flamethrower changed when they implemented the Decorated weapons.

A few other weapons got their textures more simplified as well, the Pistol being a good example. It lost a lot of its "shiny-ness" due to the War Paint / Decorated Weapon system. Some community-made weapons may also have been changed, although if those can really be in this proposed fix, I don't know.

I don't have good previews right now, but the file history for the "3D Weapons" on the Wiki does show how it used to look like:

Thanks.

Acording to upcoming "holiday sized update" and "other community contributed fixes" this might get added soon.

perhaps this will be added to the update as a fix, I was given a hint by the one who fixes the game, the contractor who was hired by valve, he fixes the game

I wrote to the developers to add this

Have awards you three. Amazing work.

hey, the new Valve TF2 fixer guy, pls add this

Yesyesyes this is FANTASTIC! Really hope the community contractor currently fixing the game adds this as a "bug fix."

Based. new p_ materials would be incredible

Gotta fix what valve won't.

Bless you.

I see no reason not to add this

amazing work

Oh thank god.
That messy lighting on the beak of the jag always pissed me off.

Very awesome.
