Team Fortress 2 Update Notes

Team Fortress 2 update fixes audio regressions, cosmetic clipping, and map exploits.

Valve released an automatic update for Team Fortress 2 focusing on cosmetic fixes, audio corrections, and map exploits.

Audio and Map Adjustments

A regression preventing certain .mp3 files from playing is fixed. On koth_cachoeira, players can no longer shoot through the metal fence.

Cosmetics and Textures

The Daring Dell, Desk Engineer, and The Big Star cosmetic items receive updates. Paint preview rotations and helmet shading artifacts are corrected. Texture compression no longer tints skin parts green, and mismatched backpack icons, texture parts, and the Backpack Expander description are updated alongside tournament medals.

Clipping Fixes

Instances of model clipping are resolved, including issues with the Gunslinger, Engineer buckle, and player models.

Why this patch matters

This update addresses visual regressions, cosmetic bugs, and a line-of-sight exploit on koth_cachoeira.
