Current Golden Wrench Image

I was under the impression Valve had changed it to the (horrible) rusty looking one, not the bright glowy version? Can anyone confirm? Moussekateer 20:00, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

Depends on the map lighting. cp_well creates a very, very bright one, whereas koth_garbage_day will have a rusty-gold one. I think. TheMedik 20:23, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
I honestly don't know anymore. Since I lack an actual gold wrench i hacked up the items file to give the standard wrench the texture the golden one uses, and it's got phong overrides set to super shiny, so I think the glow is 'correct', but I cannot verify with a real wrench. --Org 03:42, 16 November 2010 (UTC)

Retake method

I retook the latest version of this by extracting c_wrench.mdl and altering its texture filename to the location of the golden texture (models/weapons/c_items/gold_wrench). As I'm not able to test the real Golden Wrench, I copied the item attributes of items_game.txt and pasted them over the attributes for the Southern Hospitality. Either I've missed a step or did something wrong, but I'm not encountering the yellow phongy glow that has been previously experienced. seb26 [talk] 06:33, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
