Why can't people see my spray?

[Bellatrix]

I picked a jpg as a spray, sprayed it over another spray, and yet someone walked up to the spray I sprayed over and commented on it.

Clearly my spray is invisible. What do?

Most sprays don't work on Valve servers.

Sprays are disabled on Valve servers. Vavle might get sued if the 5-year-olds that still play tf2 see a titty spray.

Make sure cl_allowupload is set to 1 and that you're playing on community servers.

Clearly though, I'm having trouble on servers with sprays, given that I just said that someone saw a spray hidden by my own spray.

I hope they return them either in the pyro update or after I miss the spray walls

Go into multiplayer and select your spray. If you do not see your spray in the list import the file again. If that dosen't work.

Create a game by yourself via server. Spray on a wall. If you cannot see your spray the VTF, or valve textre file, of your image might not have been loaded properly into TF2 or the properties of you VTF have been corrputed or set wrong. Also your spray should be in

C:\Program Files, or (86x)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf\materials\temp

Your spray should show up there in the list of temp spray files. If you spray is not there then it may have not loaded properly.

And if that dosen't work open you picture with a paint software. Save as. Then select a different type of format to save as such as a .jpg or .png. Then import the new file into TF2.

And for an extra boot you can edit the properties of valves picture properties manualy with VTFEdit.

There is special like saying your brother with autism is "Special" and there is the special like Wesley Willis special. (Look up Wesley Willis on YouTube it's hilarious)

I don't think thats true. I've seen plenty of sprays on Valve servers (granted its nowhere near the same amount as I used to see them, but I do still see them.)

If you spray a spray over a spray, the game randomly chooses which one gets to be seen. You had the luck to see your spray, but the others didnt as the game gave them the other spray.

this
decal order is handled clientside, so it's probably just that the other person had the other spray loaded in front on their end

If you're playing on a server with sprays enabled, then there is an another problem. Your spray size is too big, idk the limit, but i couldn't spray a 1230x980 spray, so it stayed invisible
