Want your old mods before the SteamPipe update to be used afterwards? Well, you've come to the right place.
In this example, I will change the Health Plus meter to another one.

First off, copy and paste this address into Windows Explorer: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf\custom (Or change it accordingly if you don't use C as a main drive nor do you use a 64 bit operating system, which would make it just Program Files.)
Next, download your mod from a site so you don't confuse yourself. Next, make a folder in the directory above to relate to said mod, like this: http://i.imgur.com/ZqiOkX0.jpg
Next, extract everything that would've been inside the tf folder to the newly created folder for that mod.
After that, you will need to open another Windows Explorer folder to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\bin and look for the program called vpk.exe, like this: http://i.imgur.com/thYCde1.jpg
Drag the mod folder onto vpk.exe and you'll see a newly created vpk file with the same name as the folder: http://i.imgur.com/DFikV9M.jpg
Run the game and see if it works! If done properly, it should install normally: http://i.imgur.com/wEDWESb.jpg
Hope this guide clears everything up!

I see you didn't take a look at the existing threads before you made this one. Nice job. (http://forums.saxtonhell.com/index.php?topic=820.0)
