About

The ARK Tester Hat Skin is a character cosmetic that applies a hat appearance to the player. It is associated with official ARK tester accounts and is not ordinarily available through normal gameplay.

Admins can spawn this skin using its GFI code if they need to test cosmetic systems, grant it to testers, or display it on a server. Since it has no blueprint path, you spawn the finished cosmetic directly, not a blueprint to learn.

Is the ARK Tester Hat Skin a DLC item or part of the base game?

What do the numbers in the ARK Tester Hat Skin spawn command mean?

The GFI code PrimalItem_Skin_Account_GameTester is a short name for quick spawning; the blueprint path "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Armor/Leather/PrimalItem_Skin_Account_GameTester.PrimalItem_Skin_Account_GameTester'" is the full engine reference used by GiveItem and spawn tools. Both point at the same ARK Tester Hat Skin.
