Yeah, I was going to and then I forgot about it. I'll try to do it soon. It will be separate from this version though.

will you update the shackles to look like your new classic vort shackels?

In HL2 they're on the vort with the broom at the beginning and also the dead one in a chair in Nova Prospekt. They probably show up in other parts too, but those are the only two I can remember.

My memory is a bit fuzzy, when does these shackles appear?

The default shackles they have in Black Mesa use the same model as the combine shackles in HL2.

what do you mean with combine shackles?

Yes, but the shackles are already included with the classic vort model.

Is this meant to go with classic Vortigaunt

ok

Maybe. I just forgot about it, but I might still do it sometime. I don't know when though.

do you still plan to making a port for gmod?

Works great aside from the lack of glowing on mind-controlled Vorts in Interloper. Will you add that functionality at some point?

It should.

Does this work with 1.0?

No problem your mods are the best

Yeah I just found out yesterday that I had been using the wrong version of the game. I got it working now, but thanks anyway. I'll update it later today.

Also this is all void unless you are in the current public beta, but im sure as soon as the update is on the offical branch march 5 it will become a prob for everyone.

It was an error in the qc file under $sequence "dodge_left" and "dodge_right" in the line where it says activity it should say "ACT_VORT_DODGE_LEFT" 1, also i noticed 2 missing lines that may be important but i added it just incase. heres the model with the new qc compiled with it https://www.dropbox.com/sh/anzc756iq10pj53/AABz2yoFFqcG8hTJp_758URXa?dl=0

For what it's worth, I did manage to snag these two errors in the console:

CBaseAnimatingOverlay::AddGesture: model models/vortigaunt_slave.mdl missing activity ACT_VORT_DODGE_LEFT_GESTURE
CBaseAnimatingOverlay::AddGesture: model models/vortigaunt_slave.mdl missing activity ACT_VORT_DODGE_RIGHT_GESTURE

I'm sure I've seen them dodge before though, so I'm not sure what's going on there.

Well, it doesn't seem to be happening for me, so I don't think I can do anything about it now, but if I ever figure out what's causing it I'll try to fix it.

Seems to be just anywhere. It looks like some of the dodge animations still don't work properly, but I'm not 100% sure.

Is it happening in any specific part of the game or just anywhere?

I've given it a shot in-game, and unfortunately, they're still T-posing a lot. They do use some of their dodging animations properly, though.

It should be fixed now. I haven't actually seen them dodge in-game, but the animations are there so they should work.

Yeah, they t-pose instead of dodge. This needs to be updated again but it will be the final time. So that's a relief. Just once more, our champion modder!

Just a heads up Brain, the new update added new dodge animations for the vorts, they may not be included in this model.

Yes, as long as they don't change the model, other skins should work fine with this.

Can we use a vortigaunt reskin with this?

Also I know this is kind of late to respond about how dark they are, but I'm pretty happy with how they look now, as long as the reflections are visible. Sometimes there isn't much to reflect though, and that might make them look darker than normal.

You shouldn't have to use the custom folder for this to work. Not sure why they would turn invisible though.

This mod turns them invisible for some reason. Do I have to put it in the custom folder?

The shackles look like they're black in most lighting. Can you make the texture significantly brighter?

Yeah, I meant to do that before but I never got around to it.

can you port this to Gmod

No. It only has what's visible in the pictures.

Does this one have the removed beta HL2 combine Peircings on its legs?

No wait it is. Strange it required a few restarts, but no issue.

not working again since new update I think.

<3 thank you mate

It should be fixed now.

As soon as possible would be great. I'm featuring these in my film on Youtube and I plan on it doing fairly well. It's a full length Half Life movie and your models are awesome. Thank you for them.

Yeah I'll try to fix it soon.

Any plans to update this when Xen is done? It looks like they're missing new animations from Interloper

I will try to remake the snarks but I probably won't do any other weapons for now.

Do you think you'll ever do remodels of some of the weapons, specifically the hivehand and snarks? The vanilla models are still yet to be changed from the 2012 versions, and they suck IMO. Plus, no-one has done a remodel of them yet.

Yes I just noticed thank you.

The classic vort model has these shackles on it already.

This version is for anyone who wants to use the HL1 shackles on the default vort model.

is it compatible with the classic vortigaunt model

Can you make a version with glows?

beautiful
