I can now forsee Valve potentially nerfing the visibility of dropped weapons soon since it's a "major economy-breaking bug" (gold frying pan anyone?) and people who want the new free hat will ruin it for everyone.

(No, I'm not going to report it, since I like my visible weapons.)

Nothing would happen. I'm sure Valve would have acted by now if they truly saw it as a problem.

Here is the command for the golden pan (with item designer plugin)

Who needs a real one?

I've been trying to make a few custom weapons and after a lot of trial and error, I've finally succeeded. However, whenever I try to shoot my custom weapon, it only fires once and will not fire anymore after doing so. Here's what I have right now:

"custom_give_weapons_vlolz"
{
	"9999"
	{
		"classname"		"tf_weapon_rocketlauncher"
		"index"		"228"
		"slot"		"0"
		"quality"		"6"
		"level"		"29"
		"attribs"		"134 ; 19"
		"ammo"		"20"
	}
	"7000"
	{
		"classname"		"tf_weapon_grenadelauncher"
		"index"		"205"
		"slot"		"0"
		"quality"		"7"
		"level"		"100"
		"attribs"		"2 ; 60 ; 4 ; 40 ; 6 ; 40 ; 16 ; 100 ; 26 ; 200 ; 31 ; 10"
		"ammo"		“20”
		}
}

How should I go about fixing or troubleshooting this? I'm fairly new to this and I've been searching around trying to find how to fix it and have come up empty.

@luigi_man: I would need to personally check out those weapons to see what the issue was with 100% accuracy but for the time being...

You're #7,000 has a lot of issues...

 
-The Index should be 206 (205 is the rocket launcher)

-The  clip-size bonus is (4 ; 40) is insane but you only set it to have 20  ammo.
--It's 40 so that translates to 4000% or so in increased clip  size.

-Similar above for (2 ; 60) which is a damage boost of ~6000%

-You're  fire-rate issue is probably because it's (6 ; 40) is entirely out of  range!
--After you hit a certain number, some things just don't work  anymore.
---Try using something like "6 ; 5" which is 5x or 500% more  fire-rate.

-The  Max health bonus (26 ; 200) is something I would steer away from until you have learned more about how the weapons system works.
--It's very  finicky, and the bonus HP will go away when the weapon is switched away from unless you properly set it up ahead of time.

As for you're #9,999 I don't immediately see any issues with it.. It looks like a blackbox with a circling hearts particle effect, a default weapon quality, a level of 29, and 20 total ammo.


For future reference if you get you're attribute numbers from items_game.txt...

 
"description_format"    "value_is_additive": This means you use whole numbers generally, or strings
"description_format"    "value_is_additive_percentage": This means 0.1 = 10% & It's on top of the existing value
"description_format"    "value_is_percentage": Same as above but it's a replacing value.
"description_format"     "value_is_inverted_percentage": Pure evil, it's %'s again but this time  it's the opposite value. So 0.1 = 90% or 0.9 = 10%

PS: Let me know if there are any issues once you have done some more changes, I'll give it a few test runs on my own later if you continue to have problems.

Just re-downloaded the latest version (1.6.2-272) from here, but it's missing the "plugins" folder. Anyone else having this issue?

Is there a way I can get myself the Golden Frying Pan with this? If so, how?

Try removing trailing semicolon before quotation sign in "attribs" line

[FlaminSarge]

@luigi_man I also noticed that the characters for your quote marks are sometimes the slanted ones and sometimes the regular ". I don't know if that affects anything for SourceMod parsing, but you could doublecheck it.
