| − | Yeah, don't wanna mess the page up but the retired hats may need to be removed. Also there are some points below this that needs to be checked if they are ready.

| − | : Two things. 1 Don't remove talk page posts like that. 2nd, The table shows items that CAN have an unusual effect. Not what can be uncrated in unusual. (Well technically it is still) But its just a list of what can have a particle attached to it. [[User:Ashes|Ashes]] 15:06, 6 April 2013 (PDT)

| − | == Gifs ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | I think it'd be a good idea to replace the current example screenshots with .gif's, simply because they can so much better demonstrate how these particle effects actually look like in-game. Alternatively, there could also be a YouTube demonstration video, in a similar manner as weapons, but that's just an idea. - [[User:Selbi|Selbi]] 15:38, 26 October 2011 (PDT)

| |
| − | :::That was my idea, one video to demonstrate all particle effects. YouTube has the ability to link to a specific point in the timeline of a video, so there could be links for each effect on the Wiki page. Also yeah, .gif's maybe are a bad idea, but I was more focusing on the question of ''should there be a demonstration video for unusual effects'' anyway. - [[User:Selbi|Selbi]] 07:06, 27 October 2011 (PDT)

| − | ::::I don't think a video is really needed for this, the images are all that's really needed.

| |
| − | : They most likely would just clip. Don't see why it matters really. [[User:Ashes|Ashes]] ([[User talk:Ashes|talk]]) 21:09, 7 July 2013 (PDT)
| |
| − | :: I am using my abilities of necroing to revive this! But anyways to be honest, nothing special actually happens, apart from that the items stack in color. I know this by my two Scout unusuals, my Blizzardy Storm Bonk Boy and my orbiting fire Bombing Run. Depending on the type of the unusual effect, it might clip, it might not. It does not clip for me though. [[User:Altair|Altair]] ([[User talk:Altair|talk]]) 02:30, 9 September 2013 (PDT)
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Unusual Offset ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | A while ago TF2 gave players the ability to adjust the offset for unusual/particle effects on certain hats and miscs. Should it be added how this affects the particle/item? It could be useful to note; I'd probably do it but as of right now I have no unusuals and the only hat I have that has this option the the World Traveler's, in which the option doesn't seem to do anything, so I really can't do a thing about this. [[User:Shnowshner200|Shnowshner]] ([[User talk:Shnowshner200|talk]]) 08:44, 15 July 2013 (PDT)
| |
| − | : Perhaps a small note about it. Some people may not know how to do it but we'll see. [[User:Ashes|Ashes]] ([[User talk:Ashes|talk]]) 11:03, 15 July 2013 (PDT)
| |
| − | :: Probably adding two pictures or a video to show the difference would do it, so people can see how it changes/moves the effect. Also may be a good idea to have that information on the Particle Effects page instead of this one, considering that the World Travelers has the option to do so, yet is impossible to be obtained in unusual quality. --[[User:Shnowshner200|Shnowshner]] ([[User talk:Shnowshner200|talk]]) 18:17, 8 August 2013 (PDT)

| − | | |
| − | == Total number ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | So, simple problem, the top of the page states that there are 133 items with unusual effects; I count 226 registered as existing on backpack.tf, ignoring the Cheater's Lament, the Ebenezer and Haunted Scrap, but counting the Headtaker. May not be the most reliable resource, but either way, 133 is pretty clearly wrong, since the list at the bottom of the page contains 225 unique items (discounting Team Captain and Private Eye repeats, counting the Headtaker). The counts are almost the same, I may have missed one here, since the arrangement isn't as easy to count. I'd suggest that 226 is probably the correct number, but would like someone else to verify before an edit. [[User:Buck Rampant|Buck Rampant]] ([[User talk:Buck Rampant|talk]]) 20:53, 10 August 2013 (PDT)
| |
| − | : You bring a good point. The # of total effects may have been updated. However the # of items that can have effects on them was never updated. (The count, not the template). Normally I would update it but it becomes a hassle to figure out, What can have an effect and what doesn't. So if you want, Get a total count then either edit it yourself or post it here. Also see if there are any missing hats on the template. [[User:Ashes|Ashes]] ([[User talk:Ashes|talk]]) 20:58, 10 August 2013 (PDT)

| − | You guys dead or just becoming lazy? Some BIG stuff relating Unusuals have risen up since the Love and War update, with the Unusual Taunts, and Unusual Series #. I've already decided that Unusual Series means "old crate, old effect; new crate, new effect," based on the patch notes and what I read here: ( http://tf2finance.com/effects/ ). I'm hesitant to add anything right now to avoid speculation if this turns out to be false. However, I assume something can be done about the Unusual Taunts, if it is possible to show these using plugin, or do we have to wait until enough are unboxed? [[User:Shnowshner200|Shnowshner]] ([[User talk:Shnowshner200|talk]]) 13:30, 24 June 2014 (PDT)

| − | : We still have yet to decide on how to show them, so it will take some time. And no we aren't "dead" or "lazy". This sort of stuff takes time and have no one dedicated to do them in the same quality. [[User:Ashes|Ashes]] ([[User talk:Ashes|talk]]) 13:31, 24 June 2014 (PDT)
| |
| − | :: Okay then, it had been a while and nothing seemed to be getting changed. So does this mean we're still uncertain of what the Unusual Series #'s mean, or has that already been solved?

| |
| − | | |
| − | From what I've gathered, there are 6 new Unusual Effects and 2 new Unusual Effects for the Taunt's gained from the "Love & War Update".

| − | '''Unusual Cosmetic Effects:'''
| |
| − | * The Ooze (Dark grey cloud above head with green smoke surrounding it + green eyes)
| |
| − | * Stare from beyond the Grave (Same as The Ooze, dark yellow colour instead of green)
| |
| − | * Amaranthine (Same as The Ooze, dark purple colour instead of green)<br />
| |
| − | '''Edit:''' Just notice that the 3 Unusual Effects above are the same design as the 'floor' in the soccer and race car bumper car games in the [[Carnival of Carnage|Halloween version of Doomsday]].

| |
| − | * Bonzo the All-Knawing (Purple cloud with a design like the [[Bombinomicon]] without the bomb with green eyes and green spit occasionally spurting outwards) <br />
| |
| − | '''Edit:''' Just saw that the 'Bonzo the All-Knawing' Unusual Effect to be the same design as the ground in the [[Carnival of Carnage|Halloween version of Doomsday]] when you go into the 'Falling Platforms' game. Might grab an image and repost. [[User:CoreDude98|CoreDude98]] ([[User talk:CoreDude98|talk]]) 22:15, 2 November 2014 (PST)

| − | * Haunted Phantasm (small green ghosts that appear above head and fly upwards)
| |
| − | * Haunted Phantasm Jr. (same as Haunted Phantasm but purple)
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Unusual Taunt Effects:'''

| − | == Up-to-date preview images? ==
| |

I'd be willing to remake all of the images to be in the same style if you guys support it: a while back I made a few examples of some images that attempt to recreate the style of the originals. If you'd like to see what I've done, [http://imgur.com/a/jQ57Y here's an album of 3 effects as examples] (though a few things like the camera distance may change a bit depending on if the effects need more room once I make the actual images). I made a quick example map for these images, and tried to use a similar texture as the original previews. Would you guys support the current images being changed to something like this? If so, would the size the current examples are be good to display the details of the effect, or should it be larger/smaller?

| |
| − | | |
| − | Oh right, So I remade the entire gallery for the unusual hat effects (also unused effects), so I'm going to upload a lot of images soon, all of these in 1080 x 1080, made with Source Filmmaker. [http://imgur.com/a/MVRTe Here is a little preview].<br />
| |
| − | And while I'm at it, I will upload the slightly edited map originally made by [[User:I-ghost|I-ghost]] and the session to the Source Filmmaker Workshop. [http://i.imgur.com/mUci4cd.png Here is another preview].

| − | == Unusual Weapon Effects ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | It's a bit weird how all the hat effects are put on a Brigade Helm but the weapon effects are by themselves. It gives one a very poor idea of how they look in game. I understand how it might be difficult choosing the weapon as the weapon chosen can make the effect look pretty different, but it's better than blank space.

| − | : I am not sure if the new ones are better than the old. Maybe it will make the update of this page easier and more flexible in the future, but there are few constructive contents, and it creates unnecessary problems for translation pages.<br />(The zh-hans page is the only translation page that use the new templates currently)<br />However, linking to individual pages is not a good idea, as readers will want to have a search on only 1 page.

| − | ::I didn't mean that 1 pages per table, I mean, group the same category effect on the single page (like make a separate page for Halloween Unusual effect, the tables can still be individual, just split content to the different page) instead of throwing every tables with no collapse on a single page. And not to mention that too many stuffs on the templates on the same page can cause the loading issue.

| − | :::My propositions:
| |
| − | :::1. Create a "List of Unusual effects" page, similar to the "[[Cosmetic items#List of cosmetic items|List of [class] cosmetics]]" pages.
| |
| − | :::2. Replace the comments above the tables with either links to the updates they were introduced in to their titles, similar to {{tl|War Paint Gallery}}, or with footnotes on that and on how to obtain.
