I am unable to use the RUST steam marketplace skins that I have paid for in RUST. I purchased all the skins off the steam marketplace. They are currently not showing up at this time. I have reinstalled rust several times, and have followed many tutorials on the steam forums related to this issue that have not worked. I am quite unhappy that a product that I paid for is not working. To break it down simply so you can understand what the problem is exactly. I bought the skin for the Regal Hatchet on the steam marketplace. It worked fine about 2 days ago before the big wipe/patch that just took place recently from this date 4/5/2019. Now in game when I craft the Regal Hatchet (Using the skin that I wish to craft the hatchet in its form as a "Regal Hatchet" it comes out as a vanilla default hatchet. Unfortunately I cannot test if this is happening with my weapons. Although I can confirm that there are several posts on steam about this issue. (was just playing a day ago it was fine. Now today it is broken....) The current issue is that the skin does not apply to the default vanilla in game object, and instead shows the object in its default vanilla state. I am also quite livid that an item that I paid more for than the game itself is not showing up? Therefore until the issue is resolved I will no longer be purchasing items off steam marketplace for RUST, since the last patch broke the skins. Since they are no longer working correctly. It brings me great unhappiness. A deep seething gut punching unhappiness to not be able to use the items that I have paid for when playing RUST. that brings about a certain disdain to my apparent character which brings about a seething feeling of depression and remorse for making the decision to purchase these skins. Upon buying the skin I was happy, and full of glee. Awaiting to play with my wonderful new Axe that I had paid quite a bit for on the steam marketplace. I was going to chop down trees with my stylish axe with a great big smile. Although the smile never came. Instead when I selected the skin from the crafting menu after spending a long time finding a blueprint for an axe I was only greeting with an axe of default status. A mediocre hatchet with only a wooden handle, and a dull black blade. The golden regaltasticness of the Regal axe was not present. Panic began to settle in. Sweat beaded from my face. Breathing began to get shallow, but I said to myself "No dont panic someone will know what to do." So I turned to the Admins on the server. They said "It should be fixed after restart." I restarted 10 times and created 10 axes no use. They began to yell, and i began to feel very very sad for I could not use my beautifully constructed regal axe. Then things began to get out of hand. I uninstalled steam, and all my games. Then reinstalled just rust. Still no fix Then I began to go online looking for fixes, but each one was outdated. Finally I found one that took me through some steps. Although guess what? no fix Then I just thought it might be a driver issue, so I completely reinstalled all my drivers no fix Oh did I mention that I was able to use the ornate pickaxe I have. boxes and my furnace. This hatchet though, and my weapons all seem to not be working. So please for love of all that is good in the universe. Fix the skins, or please present a fix so I can use my hatchet. This is quite upsetting.
Chill out, and stop being a whiny entitled bitch. They will fix it soon and then you can go back to using shitty skins (not all, just yours).
