Damn

@Chunk I don't make them NPCs because 1. I don't know how to make NPCs and 2. I don't need NPCs for the purposes I'd use the models for.

NPCs also probably don't use much file space because they're just made through scripts, the file size comes from, get this, the textures and models. Sure, 15 MB is maybe slightly higher than it could be if stuff was compressed further, but if you want to whine about file size go complain about the single models that take up 200 MB because the author doesn't know that 8K textures without compression is generally a bad idea.

why do you keep making these ragdolls? these aren't even npcs, why are they 15mb and stuff?

The TOR?

Ever thought of doing the TOR?

I have Ep2 mounted and i have the same reflection problem, so must be black mesa.

is it possible to turn the ragdolls in vjbase npcs?

if it's on the alien grunts, it's because it uses either a special reflection map from either Ep2 or Black Mesa. I don't remember, but I'm pretty sure it's the one from Ep2

no they are not missing textures
something is wrong with the vmts i think
maybe its reflections or something but mat_specular 0 does nothing

@ZeroSorrow™ If you mean to say that they have missing textures, I probably forgot something obvious when I packed it three years ago.

why are they pink

@filthy rodent Black Mesa at most, for the gore textures, otherwise nothing I can think of.

do these need to have anything mounted?

For some reason they look pink.

ohh nevermind

the vort materials aren't working

can I make a playermodel out of the alien grunt? If no then what about if it's just for me, no distribution

My vort is not in an HEV Suit. It's an HD remodelling based on fanart for Half-Life 1 as well as the original vortigaunt texture.

This is the art I looked at for inspiration:

the vortigaunt isnt in an HEV suit, it does look like it though.
here is an addon for a hev suit vortigaunt, it's a bit old so i think it only includes ragdolls: https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=130746333

vortigaunt in hev suit sorry i spelt that wrong

thtas fuking rade zen in a hev suit

plz make houndi

Makin nerd shit's fun man

You have a lot of stuff for a bunch of different games

Well, technically! I made these models for Black Mesa but Zavien was kind enough to port them to Gmod for me :)

JACKIE YOU DO ADDONS??

Great to hear!

That did solve it!

Thank you guys, you're both legends!

Alright, update is out, it's got 3 texture files and 3 material files for the hivehand, hopefully this will fix the missing textures.

Hmm, I'll see if stuffing the hivehand textures in will help, give me a minute to update it.

Just checked the .qc to make sure everything's lined up, and it appears that it is. It's looking for the hivehand texture Black Mesa provides, so i'm not sure what's happening. Sorry man :(

I think providing the hivehand texture might help, just to check and see. If it doesn't work there as well then there's gotta be something conflicting.

Alright After deleting a lot of addons I still don't know what is wrong but I made a workaround and a few discoveries.

For some reason, my mounted black mesa has no textures in w_hgun, but has textures for w_hgun_mp with the submaterial tool I managed to just attach those textures over the models and it works as a workaround.

Additionally, for a darker hivegun, the submaterial tool also lets me attach the original BM AGrunt's submaterial for the hivegun into the new models, both jackerino's and brain dead's

Damn, sorry I couldn't help.

Nope, the files verified, all is ok.

Guess I'm going to start deleting addons until I find what broke it

The oddest part is that the normal Agrunt's hivehand works.

I'm verifying black mesa right now, hopefully with a bit of luck I don't have to uninstall 150 addons to find the culprit

I've got the Black Mesa beta on too and I've got no issues, I really don't know what the issue could be, maybe try verifying Black Mesa?

I don't know what's wrong tbh, black mesa is mounted. Brain Dead's Agrunt model hivegun doesn't work either, everything else does. I am not sure if I may have a conflicting addon?

Does it count that I have the Black Mesa on Beta for the xen levels and stuff?

Hmm, I can do what I did for Brain Dead's and put the hivehand texture into the addon itself, but I can't guarantee it'll fix anything.

Alright some extra data:

When spawning either of the Agrunts the following error shows up in the console:

Attemped to precache unknown particle system "weapon_hgun_muzzleflash_3rd"!
Requesting texture value from var "$basetexture" which is not a texture value (material: pp/copy)

And the hivegun is untextured as mentioned earlier

I have black mesa mounted yet the hivehand has got its textures missing... this also happenned on the hivehand for brain dead's pack. Did I miss anything?

Is it me or Vorts look like an HEV?

@DeltaKitsune If you could shoot me a link I could see what I can do.

Can you also port custom hl2 models in gamebanana aswel?

@762 - Zavien F.
Well if you get it, plz make a replacement of the HL:S npcs, but for now what about the VJ Base Black mesa snpcs

@Dominant Elite Oh, okay, I guess I could, but I don't have HL:S so I can't make a replacement version of them.

@762 - Zavien F.
I mean make a replacement that replaces the half life source and half life 2 npcs

Thanks!

@Dominant Elite I still don't understand, are you asking me to make these replace Brain Dead's?

@¤[SCP-1471-1]¤ There would be no point in having these up if it wasn't truly mountable, would there? Here's a tutorial (the same one I used) on mounting Black Mesa to Garry's Mod. https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=473095542

@762 - Zavien F.
Replacement of this addon and Brain dead's addon.
