How to dress up Spy as Robbie Rotten with Texture Replacement:
You'll need this[sta.sh]

1. Spawn the Robbie Rotten body and the Spy model in your scene, use the BLU Skin for Spy

2. Lock the RR Body to the Spy and turn up the Zero slider

3. Copy and paste the materials folder from the .rar file into where your Spy materials are

Note: If it doesn't work, there might be multiple Spy materials in your SFM folder that is interfering with the ones you replace, you may have to find and replace those too.

Possible directories of the Spy materials:
usermod\materials\models\player\spy
tf_movies\materials\models\player\spy
tf\materials\models\player\spy

4. Right click on Spy in the animation set editor>Override Materials

5. Right click on Spy in the animation set editor>Show in Element Viewer

6. Go to Element Viewer, go to materials then right click on spy_blue, Add Attribute>string then type in $basetexture

7. Spy's body should turn black, now paste models/player/spy/spy_blue_invi in the $basetexture field, that should turn the body from black to invisble.


Now if ever you'll use both the Robbie Rotten body and a BLU Spy in one shot like the from the thumbnail and you render with AO, I suggest replacing the RED skin with the BLU skin, why? Since the BLU skin's is invisible with the use of $alphatest in its VMT, AO won't work on it, now the RED skin's VMT supposedly shouldnt have $alphatest which lets it render with AO.


feel free to ask if you're confused or suggest a better method
