Item test mode can be invoked on this map by turning on cheats ('''sv_cheats 1''') then using the console command '''itemtest''' to bring up a window that allows you to spawn bots with attached weapon or accessory models loaded arbitrarily from disk, and you can have the bots perform basic actions like stand, run, look around, etc. I'm no modeler, but it looks like it would be much more useful for testing (and creating screenshots of) custom models than the current practice of replacing an existing one. Also there are several commands for creating item drop notices, but I didn't look much into those; '''find item''' in console will list more related commands. --[[User:M2pt5|M2pt5]] 18:43, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

==Information==
 
This article is currently marked as a stub, and I have a few ideas on how to expand it.  However, I'll be honest, I don't want to make an edit that'll just be taken down 2 seconds later, so:
 
 
 
Add the fact that, although the current description is accurate, it should state that "..<it> allows for community members to test their weapon skins."  Sure, they're trying to add support for the stats, but that's coming later, and I want to report on the now.
 
 
 
In fact, add the fact about stat support, as they have already officially announced it, but make sure you add they will talk about it closer to release.
 
 
 
All these facts are from:

:: {{c|neutral|comment}} That's because the name of the map is 'Degroot Keep' and is what is shown when changing to that map.

== Game Crash When map itemtest Entered? ==
 
I use itemtest all the time, since I am a an developing hat modeler and I need to test which hats go best with which miscs when I am shopping in the Mann Co Store.  Well, since the last update, the game has crashed whenever I entered the map itemtest code into console.  Is anyone else getting this?

== Help ==
 
I know this should be saved for forums, but they all laugh at me.
 
Basically, I load my hat I made into the item test, but it is purple and black, like a missing spray texture. How do I fix this? [[User:Taser9001|Taser9001]] 08:20, 19 July 2012 (PDT)
 
:Figured it out! It was the vmt file. Needed a few changes to it. [[User:Taser9001|Taser9001]] 08:06, 22 July 2012 (PDT)
