I got 5 camera beards through a steam cloud fart. Had my inventory filled with random stuff. I SMELTED THEM ALL FOR SCRAP METAL! :'(
wow raped
It's a good thing I didn't get the 4th camera beard or I woulda smelted them ages ago.  Now I have a Ten Gallon hat.  Not a huge use to me, but eh, I'll take it.
I've put 400 hours into this game, and have not looted a single hat (Not counting the lament and gibus).  My head is cold.

700+ hrs and I've got...4 hats?

I just got a Troublemaker's Tossle. Would've preferred a Baker Boy, but whatever.

I've gotten 1.  Not including camera beards since I got those when they had a much higher drop chance (before the latest update)
I still don't really have any hats, but at least I got the medic's camera beard (procedural mask). Something I can USE.

I manage to find weapons and shit all the time, but never a hat. NEVER A HAT.

All I want is the damn Picklehaut.  Or w/e it is.  That and now the Heavies pompadour and sunglasses Tongue
i just want a couple weapons for my demo hat >Sad
Apparently when you have blueprints out, the welders helmet goes down!

That's because you have a 20% chance to find a weapon every 25 minutes, whereas with hats you only get like a 3% chance every 4 hours 17 minutes.

New update seriously screwed up my frame rate, goes to hell in action, even after defragging with gcfscape.

it's not the idler. I'm literally just running tf2 in textmode. to do that, create a shortcut to tf2 on your desktop (it's one of the options when you right-click from games menu)

Open up the properties menu for the shortcut, and set Target to the following: "C:\Program Files\Steam\Steam.exe" -applaunch 440 -textmode

Then launch tf2 from the shortcut. Voila you're running tf2 in text mode. To join a server (since there's no gui), you'll have to right click the steam tray icon, pull up the server browser, filter servers for tf2, and then sort by name and find an achievement server with open slots.

hope this helps, <3 u luca

It helps some, especially the last bit (I mainly needed help with the servers bit)

e - "Setup file 'gameinfo.txt' doesn't exist in subdirectory 'hl2'. Check you -game parameter or VCONFIG setting." halp D:

[/quote]join_class will work but I don't think you can join a team through console Sad.

You don't really need that program Caff. Make idle.cfg in your cfg folder and put this in it to connect to yellow:

connect 68.232.174.110:27015

Now create a shortcut for TF2, go to its properties and set target as:

"C:\Program Files\Steam\Steam.exe" -applaunch 440 -textmode +exec idle.cfg

Just boot form the shortcut and the game will load up and connect right to the server. You WILL NOT connect to the server automatically from your Steam shortcut.

on another note got shafted trying to make gunboats, got the fucking buff banner instead
tryin it now
