yeah i put that in workshop folder instead, i thought since that workshop addon (that you sent me) belongs in that workshop folder, i too need to put it there. thanks for the clarity

I put the extracted files in the tf folder (not the workshop folder) in sfm and gave my workshop folder a higher loading priority.

k yeah no its not working, ive put them in the workshop folder and they still show up as black, is there anyway you can help me with extracting?

K so I followed your alternative method I went onto tf2_misc_dir and there’s like three of the same weight room warmer files furthermore there in like backpack files and still It doesn’t pop up as white

material fixes need a higher loading priority than the items they aim to fix, create a folder with a higher loading priority than the workshop folder, there are guides on how you can do that
alternitavely you can extract the items from Team Fortress 2 and give the workshop folder higher loading priority (that's how I did it)

yeah it still shows the stripes being black, you mind if i add you or you busy rn?

oh yeah i already got that before i posted this

do you know where i can find the workshop file with the models?

they are not in the current version of source film maker, you need to either download a workshop file with the models, or (what I did) extract them from Team Fortress 2

i cant find the models
