Talk:Golden Wrench

I've never heard of this weapon. i'm guessing it's fake. Darkman 4 01:02, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Nevermind, its legit. Darkman 4 01:03, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

This is all only speculation, I'll clean it up. -Firestorm 01:04, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Heh, a VMT file. Time to fire up the model viewer. Vi3trice 01:06, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

SPUF at it again? Delicious cake 01:10, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Oh oh oh, it looks pretty.

Vi3trice 01:18, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

I swear I'll rage if this is another service medal... Delicious cake 01:26, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

It looks like it is, considering the line: "TF_HUD_Event_GoldenWrench_C" "%s1 has found Golden Wrench no. %s2!"

This means they are going to be numbered. They might simply be rare. I guess we'll find out soon. -Firestorm 01:27, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Soon enough, I hope. I'm sleepy. Also SPUF is a mess right now. Delicious cake 01:31, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Also "TF_HUD_Event_GoldenWrench_D" "%s1 has destroyed Golden Wrench no. %s2!", which implies that you can actually lose it. Thus I suppose it will be re-obtainable somehow (OMG trading system?) — WindPower 01:41, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Nah, every weapon and item can be destroyed, I think. Delicious cake 01:44, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Yes, but it's not normally printed in chat.--Woof 01:45, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

I don't recall there being an actual MESSAGE for them though. -Firestorm 01:45, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Another image. About the thing ending up broken, I guess you gotta be SOL. Vi3trice 01:47, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Valve could just be trolling us, tho. Delicious cake 01:53, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Then they're doing a pretty good job. Vi3trice 01:53, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Is it a reskin or a shiny new model? Delicious cake 01:56, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Reskin. Annnd this is just in, one of the UI HUD files that were added in the update seems to hint toward a gamemode. Man with the Golden Wrench? Vi3trice 01:57, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Can be Found

Check out the golden wrench at tf2items.net with extended mode enabled. "Can be found = yes". It can be found through the drop system! -Firestorm 01:58, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

So this leaves two options: Either Valve is trolling us and it's an engi update weapon, or Valve is double-trolling us and they'll change the weapon attributes later/inb4 service medal. Delicious cake 02:05, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

At this point on, we should have gotten used used to it. We always end up trolled. Vi3trice 02:02, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

OR: Maybe the drop system will be changed to drop Golden Wrenches only with a 100% chance of getting one, for a limited time. So it would be like the service medal, but you'll have to be in-game to get it. Delicious cake 02:05, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Never mind that: http://www.tf2items.com/allitems.php?d=1 . Value "150" is mysterious. Vi3trice 02:06, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

You can craft it with an engineer token: http://www.tf2items.com/crafting/blueprints.php. Too bad there's no way to get one right now. Delicious cake 02:13, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Not to asume anything but perhaps the [1=150] is infact the chance of the item being the gold-wrench per-drop?:. Hyenadip

Coded Message source?

Where does one find this coded message in the wild?--RJackson 02:27, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

If you use GCFScape, look for "/materials/hud/d_images_v2" in the game data .gcf's. CarlZalph 03:41, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
