MAJOR TF2 update for 10/29/13 (Fifth Annual Scream Fortress) - Games

[QUOTE=Psychopath12;42829309]Saigns and nighteam are the ones with the premium bullshit. The worst that skial has is donator endround immunity. And if you consider people being bad at videogames being a poor point there's that too.[/QUOTE] skial is also one of the rare groups of servers that have taunt-switching enabled and that makes me happy

[QUOTE=Zenamez;42830124]Supposedly tf_forced_holiday 6 fixes that (and makes all medkits etc Halloween skinned).[/QUOTE] tf_forced_holiday 2 is probably the best option since it also brings back the halloween taunt, since it no longer fucks with kill taunts now.

Has everyone's the Transmogrifiers disappeared aswell? I didn't use any of mine (I too busy playing the game to faff around with my inventory) now they all appear to have disappeared. The wiki doesn't mention anything, but it's probably a bit early for it to have been updated [url]http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Costume_Transmogrifier[/url]

I sold all mine earlier today. Made a cool 9 pence.

Opened TF2. My spells disappeared but my Spooky Crate didn't. Thanks, Valve.

[QUOTE=Kapellmeister;42830341]Opened TF2. My spells disappeared but my Spooky Crate didn't. Thanks, Valve.[/QUOTE] They expire tomorrow, so best buy keys like they want you to. Also, I have someone holding onto my potions for me, and they haven't disappeared yet... It looks like there is still hope for that glitch.

[QUOTE=Nickolas;42832564]How did that glitch work again exactly[/QUOTE] #1 Keep the potions etc on an alt account. #2 Launch TF2 on your main account, BUT NOT ON THE ALT. DON'T LAUNCH TF2 ON THE ALT (all expirable items are deleted upon startup). #3 With TF2 open on your main account and on the main menu (to avoid complications), trade over the potion paint you want to use on an item using steam trading. #4 Use it on your desired item (#5 Don't have to do this but I restart my main TF2 account to make sure the potion is still on the item, join a server, play around for a bit and restart TF2 again to make sure all is well). You should have a glitched item. The potion paint can glitch out sometimes (disappears then reappears upon next startup or disappears for days and reappears for a day, only to disappear forever) but on the hole, should be fine. I traded over a Potion'd Filamental to an alt with the potions and will trade it over in the same way to see if painted items can be saved in alt accounts without the paint being removed.

What if they made paint spells untradable and unmarketable starting tomorrow? Wouldn't that kill the glitch?

My Die Job paint still works on my unusual! I'm pretty happy over that.

Well shit, I sold my Spectral Spectrum spell thinking it would disappear... anybody wanna help me? :v:

[QUOTE=AkujiTheSniper;42836192]Well shit, I sold my Spectral Spectrum spell thinking it would disappear... anybody wanna help me? :v:[/QUOTE] all spells are untradeable now and will vanish on game startup if you didn't already paint your stuff you are boned

So how do I get Halloween spells off my hat? Do I have to restore the entire hat?

[QUOTE=Nighthawk7;42836900]So how do I get Halloween spells off my hat? Do I have to restore the entire hat?[/QUOTE] Just click restore and choose the halloween spell, that simple.

[QUOTE=Hell-met;42836273]all spells are untradeable now and will vanish on game startup if you didn't already paint your stuff you are boned[/QUOTE] If they're applied to items now or the item is pre-painted with the spell, do they make the item untradeable? Kinda pisses me off since I spent 4 days farming JUST for the team coloured paint (so many bloody voice potions) and now I can't use them. Annoying that the Item Manager can't paint items. Could have been a potential workaround.
