About

The Scale Hat Skin is a cosmetic item that reskins the Hide Hat with a scaled texture. Like all skins, it does not replace the base hat, you apply it to an existing Hide Hat to change its visual appearance.

Spawn it with its GFI code using the cheat gfi command. Since it is a skin, it occupies a single inventory slot and cannot be stacked.
