Locked page; trivia addition.

Since the only Wiki Cap that isn't of Community rarity is the Self-made one NeoDement has, I feel it should be noted. Stevoisiak 10 November 2010

I'd agree to this. Good bit of information to add to the page. StarYoshi 15:23, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
Pictogram cross.png No thanks. The infobox already says who it was contributed by. No need to cram it into the trivia as well. --Vaught 20:10, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
Pictogram plus.png Agree This is one interest information that should be noted. EpicEric 16:05, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

trivial addition; M. Bison Homage

It seems that this hat ( Wiki cap) pays strong homage to the hat the M. Bison wears from the Street fighter series.Judging by the fact most hats that pay homage to some other fiction work not it in the trivia page. examples of this are the Whoopie Cap, the Tough Guy's Toque, and the the Respectless Rubber Glove.I also looked through the archives and saw that there was no definitive answer if it should be added Schrodingerscat 03:30, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

It doesn't look all that close to the M.Bison cap. If anything, it's closer to an attendant-styled cap than M. Bison. Most make such a comparison due to the colors. --Vaught 03:37, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
It is simply a peaked cap. M. Bison just so happens to also wear a peaked cap. They are a common and somewhat stereotypical headwear item of military officers and are not inherently attached to any on figure in particular. Unless you can find actual evidence besides the visual similarity between the Wiki Cap and M. Bison's hat that the two are connected, the trivia should NOT be added. If it is a guess or an assumption, it is not trivia. -- Alex2539 - (talk | contribs) -- 06:29, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

you can say it looks like m bisons hat because its the same color and the golden eagle seen on m.bison's was replaced with the team fortress cross hair logo but its not that much of a direct reference to m.bison but like alex said theres no proof otherwisePeter Antonio Filippis 01:02, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

trivial addition; Dutch Railway cap

The global view of the wiki cap; has a strong resemblance to the hat used by the Dutch Railway personell. (link to example of Railway cap : The Dutch Railway Cap ) Unknown if there is any reference to it when it was created; it does look quite similar. Your opinion on if it needs to be added FoOz 10:56, 16 November 2010 (UTC)

As the article states, it is just a stereotypical Template:W. Peaked caps are used in many professions, not just for Dutch railways. -- Nineaxis Duck Gib.png 22:15, 17 November 2010 (UTC)

Team Spirit Paint?

Just curious, there's a Question-mark for Team Spirit paint under the Wiki Cap. My question is this: Does Team Spirit paint affect hats that already change color based on team, and if so, should we leave an "X" or something there to denote whether or not you can even get that hat? It's a nit-pick, but it sort of looked to me as if "there is this sort of hat out there, but we don't have an image yet." StarYoshi| 21:06, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

An image has yet to be retrieved. There is no attribute that prevents specific paints from being used. Psychopath 21:08, 22 November 2010 (UTC)
Pretty sure we're still working on the Team Spirit color for the hats. The procedure we use to get hat colors differs from the norm, so it's on standby. Fendermcbender 21:09, 22 November 2010 (UTC)
Okie-doke. Just checking. StarYoshi 21:29, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

Receiving the Hat

How is this hat received in the game?iKnow 05:30, 26 November 2010 (UTC)

It's received through standard drop once it is given to a person. The game will alert you that you have a new item. -- Krizzle 0 05:34, 26 November 2010 (UTC)


Pics on each class?

Id like to see how the hat looks like on each class. Anyone have pictures of that? Hilarious Pill 10:34, 27 November 2010 (UTC)Hilarious Pill

I'll throw up a gallery of HLMV mugshots. It seems I have no idea how to remove default class headwear in HLMV, and clipping issues aren't good. So, I support this, but someone else will have to do it. -RJ 10:37, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
Neo said the version in mdlviewer was wonked up as it didn't work properly. And to remove headgear of classes, you go to the Model tab, click on the first list button (Should say the class name) and find its hat, be it helmet or cap or whatever. Then pick Submodel two. Its gone, tada! But yeah, it being an all class item means its a one-size fits all thing, meaning its not going to fit well with the other classes, like Scout, due to weird clipping. --Vaught 11:00, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
