i dont see the thing that says materials

my Medic life

The files will download to your workshop materials folder, either give the workshop folder a higher priority than the tf folder or move the path and files to a folder that has a higher priority than the tf folder.

Personally, I created a folder called TF_Fixes. Gave that a higher priority than TF and that is where I place any fixes so they load before the original TF files do.

So I have these files placed in a path like Sourcefilmmaker\game\TF_Fixes\Materials\models\workshop\player\items\medic\jul13_madmans_mop\

and TF_Fixes has a higher priority then the TF folder in the gameinfo.txt file.

Okay, Im at the location of the texture fixes, but how do I get the materials to work?

omg i love you

Thanks

Thanks very much! It was annoying as heck having to edit the colours with GIMP for this, works like a charm. ^^

By launching the SDK and going to the Edit Search Paths for Selected Mod tool, find the workshop folder, select it and drag it above the tf and tf_movies folder.

How do you give the workshop folder the higher priority? V

Foxy Crystal, when you subcribe to this item the path to the fixed vmt and the vtfs will be

SourceFilmmaker\game\workshop\materials\models\workshop\player\items\medic\jul13_madmans_mop

and the files will be

jul13_madmans_mop.vmt, jul13_madmans_mop_color.vtf and jul13_madmans_mop_normal.vtf.

The download will offer to replace some files, say YES to ALL.

If your workshop folder has a lower priority than the tf folder the fixed materials will not work because the materials are loading from the original tf path. You either have to give the workshop folder a higher priority or copy the path and files to a folder that does.

set i set workshop to the 1st priority in gameinfo and it worked. thanks!

The SFM Hub Workshop folder in its default priority in the SFM hierarchy is 2nd last in the pecking order, which means that if there are other models or materials located in the same path and use the same filenames in the TF, TF_Movies or usermod folder (and those are the prioirty they are in from the lowest to the highest) then they will be seen by SFM and the Workshop folders files won't. To get this to work, you either have to give the workshop folder a higher priority than the TF folder, or move the path and filenames to a folder that doew (like usermod which has the highest priority and fies in there can't be hidden from SFM)

am i using this thing wrong, or is it not working?

THANK YOU SO MUCH
