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. --M2pt5 18:43, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

It seems that sv_cheats isn't required, and that the itemtest command will work on any map. --Pseudo 19:45, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
I wasn't certain about needing cheats, but while it works on any map, item_test has both teams spawning in the same small room. --M2pt5 23:25, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
