Death with Team Spirit

Hey :) I recently got a pair of Flip-Flops that I painted with Team Spirit. After the September 15, 2011 patch, however, every time I play on BLU and die, my Flip-Flops show the wrong color, as you can see here: [1]. Anyone else having the same problem? -- Jokerine 14:22, 19 September 2011 (PDT)

This is possible. Many hats have the same problem. It's not a stretch to see miscellaneous items having this issue as well. Unfortunately I don't have a pair of Flip-Flops myself to confirm this. Painted Vintage Merryweather 803020.pngFyahweather 16:16, 19 September 2011 (PDT)
It's not a general misc item problem, as team colored accessories drop the proper color. Balladofwindfishes 16:19, 19 September 2011 (PDT)
But this fellow's miscellaneous was painted with Team Spirit. Painted Vintage Merryweather 803020.pngFyahweather 16:24, 19 September 2011 (PDT)
That's what I mean. The accessories are normally green. I've spectated a lot of people with TS painted socks and they were the proper color on death. Balladofwindfishes 17:27, 19 September 2011 (PDT)
So, would that mean that this problem happens only to the Flip-flops? That's odd. Unfortunately, I have nobody else to compare this issue with... I sent a bug report a few days ago, but I doubt they will get back to me. -- Jokerine 18:26, 19 September 2011 (PDT)
There aren't a lot of paintable misc items (that also remain visible on the ragdoll) to easily test to see if it applies to others. I imagine there aren't many people with a TS fancy dress uniform or sign of the wolf's school. I don't know how accurate itemtest is for things like this, but that could be used.

Might be a bug with items that don't fall off on death. I saw a Pyro wearing a Balaclavas are Forever painted Pyromancer's mask, and it turned RED when the Pyro died (the mask does not fall off the player). Balladofwindfishes 13:50, 25 September 2011 (PDT)
