TF2 Halloween 2013 help?

[Reven7]

How do I get the models and sounds from the new update into SFM?

Do a search in the discussion group, I must have posted what to do no less than 5 times.

I haven't yet! I want a turn!

First, you need GCFscape, which you can download from the internet. Then go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf and open tf2_misc_dir.vpk with GCFscape, and extract models to your favorite folder, then open tf2_sound_misc_dir.vpk and extract sounds to the same folder. There's another one called tf2_textures_dir.vpk, extract the materials too. There's also some materials in tf2_misc_dir.vpk but I don't know what's with them. I think they're for the maps, but I never got motivated enough to try and figure it out. There are also particles in that same vpk, I've always enjoyed particles.

Anyway, go back to your favorite folder with the models, sounds, materials, and particles, and put 'em all in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\SourceFilmmaker\game\tf and voila! It should work. I actually figured out how to do it myself, so there's probably a step or five in there you could potentially skip, never got motiviated enough to try and learn about stuff.

Ok I tried that but all I got was a few models of the spellbooks which were untextured and covered in pink and black and no other Halloween items. So what could I do?

[Reven7]

Ok nevermind, I found the items but they are ALL untextured still so what could I do to fix this?

[Pte Jack]

You have to extract the textures from both the TF2_Misc_dir and the the Tf2_Textures_dir files. The Misc_dir contains the VMTs and the Textures_dir contains the VTFs
