A bodygroup is a feature of the Source Engine that enables specific sections of a model to be enabled or disabled, allowing for different models to take their place. In Team Fortress 2, bodygroups are used in the models of several items to show or hide specific player or weapon models when needed; for example, most hats manipulate bodygroups to remove the default headgear present on the player model to allow room for the newer hat model.
Bodygroups do not alter hitboxes, they are merely a cosmetic feature.

Unused content
- The Pyromancer's Mask has a alternate style that changes the horn. This is accomplished via bodygroups.
Bugs
- Items that turn off specific bodygroups will not cast a shadow.
- Occasionally, bodygroups will disappear, leaving empty space on the model.
- Occasionally, items will fail to turn off the default bodygroup, leading to the original group clipping into the replacement model.
- Items that replace a removed group will not disappear when the player is backstabbed by Your Eternal Reward.
- As of the December 9, 2011 Patch, certain body groups will fail to activate when required. For example, the Soldier's 'rocket' and Demoman's 'smile' during certain taunts.
