'''Jiggle bones''' are a feature of the [[Source Engine]] that allow a model skeleton to bounce or wiggle realistically with the object it is attached to. The effect is calculated and rendered in real time, giving a more realistic depiction of the way the part would move. Jiggle bones are used frequently on several items in ''Team Fortress 2'' to add to their appearance.

Jiggle bones are a feature of the Source Engine that allow a model skeleton to bounce or wiggle realistically with the object it is attached to. The effect is calculated and rendered in real time, giving a more realistic depiction of the way the part would move.
