Oh hohoho. I love Halloween!
The Medic

Halloween mode is a server mode which enables Full Moon and enables spawning of the Horseless Headless Horsemann, MONOCULUS, and Merasmus. Halloween mode is automatically enabled during yearly Halloween events taking place for roughly 2 weeks at the end of October. It can manually be enabled on servers by using the setting tf_forced_holiday 2 in the server.cfg file.

Changes

Update history

October 29, 2009 Patch (Haunted Hallowe'en Special)

  • Added a Halloween edition called Koth_Harvest_Event
    • Contains a variety of Halloween related features: New hats, achievements, exploding pumpkins, ghosts, and more!

October 27, 2010 Patch (Scream Fortress Update)

October 27, 2011 Patch (Very Scary Halloween Special)

  • Viaduct has been haunted and is now... Eyeaduct!
  • One full multi-piece costume set has been added for each class
  • Random gifts containing costume pieces drop in Eyeaduct on registered servers
  • 2 new Halloween 2011 achievements
  • Any unusual hats uncrated during the event will be Halloween-themed
  • New Halloween-themed items are available in the Mann Co. store, but only for a limited time!

Notes

  • tf_forced_holiday 2 should be enabled via server.cfg or before changing to a Halloween event map. Enabling Halloween mode whilst the map is running may cause the server to crash from a non-preloaded model.
  • tf_forced_holiday 2 can also be used to enable spawning of the Horseless Headless Horsemann and MONOCULUS in any map with ent_create.
  • When used outside of the official event period, gifts will not spawn on the Eyeaduct, Ghost Fort, and Mann Manor event maps.
