Reisen 1,973 #1 Posted May 8, 2013 (edited) Long story short: I can't use the donator paint on my painted Hats. I have a white v. v. tyro that I would like to attach the pink paint on so I can combine it with the circling heart unusual effect, but it's not working. and unpainting is a waste of the white paint which is 2 keys. Is there any way to fix that? Edited May 8, 2013 by ♥ Snowy ♥ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
- Mike - 2,728 #2 Posted May 8, 2013 Is there also a way to use the color commands of the real paints in game? I'd like to paint my hats but don't know how well they'd look with effects. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nano 7,892 #3 Posted May 8, 2013 I've never tried it but in theory... You could... Go here for the Hex Color. Go here to convert it into RRR GGG BBB format From console in game use the command: lotus_setmyhatcolor RRR GGG BBB 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reisen 1,973 #9 Posted May 9, 2013 @_@. Thanks for the head's up. It was rather surprising. I tested it and it said "Unknown command: lotus_setmyhatcolor" Then I switched classes and Server crashed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nano 7,892 #10 Posted May 9, 2013 The unknown command part isn't as worrying as it doesn't necessarily mean the command didn't work, but the server crashes is certainly worthy of investigation! Thanks again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
No longer a Sexy King:^) 5,592 #11 Posted May 9, 2013 It says the command is unknown and the server didn't crash. Tried more than one time, changed class, changed team and no crash. I tried this on multiple servers. Well, snowy joined me, she did it, and the server crashed. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reisen 1,973 #12 Posted May 9, 2013 So supposedly, It might not be the Paint. But when I switch classes and Taunt a bit after doing so, I crash the server... I am a witch Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mana 3,867 #13 Posted May 9, 2013 Urgent Information! Do NOT use the Hex Color in Console. It crashes the Server! I tried it and the Dustbowl France/Germany Server crashed after that. That seems unlikely. "lotus_setmyhatcolor" is an old command that was removed. It was used to set the custom hats color (for the custom hats the server had). Valve broke the functionality of custom hats a year or two ago and it has been removed entirely as such. The actual command is lotus_setmyvalvehatcolor. And if you have it painted already then you won't be able to change the color. Only one color can be activate at the time and valve's settings overwrite it.

Reisen 1,973 #14 Posted May 9, 2013 Yeah, we found the true reason. But I don't wanna call it here because everyone can access this topic. I pm'd Pro about it 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mana 3,867 #15 Posted May 9, 2013 Yeah, we found the true reason. But I don't wanna call it here because everyone can access this topic. I pm'd Pro about it Good that it was only affecting a few players that were doing something very specific. Soon as the server reloads maps or restarts, the fix will be loaded (most of them should load it sooner actually). If you like you can test it out on an empty server. If it crashes then it will come back with the fix, if it doesn't then the fix is already loaded. Thanks for reporting this. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tbh I wouldn't even have found it if I wouldn't have been so horny on my sexy pink paint all over so I switched classes a few times while taunting. Appeared to have dalokohs that moment so the server suddenly crashed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Barbaro 466 #17 Posted May 10, 2013 Forward any bugs you find to Valve...it only helps to make the game better. (Plus, some turd got a free hat for reporting a pretty serious one.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
