how about hl2–styled project synapse combines (PM/NPC)

WAIT A SECOND I REM- Oh no...

whats the weapons mod?

Perfect for a riot suit.

most i dont remember, but the first image is a custom map i made that i never released

what map did you use in the screenshots?

now THAT is epic

that would be right, i'm updating it behind the scenes for now

Yeah, I personally assume the addon is being updated, though it is weird there has been no announcement about it.

Would anyone happen to know what happened to their Half-Life Alyx Zbase NPC mod? As for some reason, that mod is now hidden.

Sounds good, thank you

unfortunately part of my zbase hl2-styled units, i really need to combine all of the models into that one pack but w/o the requirements you should have the gun model no problem

What were the Combine gun models you were using is the screen shots?

real

the period between HLA and HL2

what does transition period mean!?!

Combine on their period

I hate to ask, but should we be expecting a Zbase version of these guys anytime soon?

its not an actual map, its a scenebuild

what's the map in the 5th screenshot?

Wait what is the Transition Period Soldiers is it like after HLA the Echo 1 group Grunt Ordinal Charger and supressor goe through a time where they fitting into Overwatch

EJ what you use for the screenshots and stuff to make it look cinematic

ignore everything i just said we're good

if we're thinking real here wouldnt deleting the ordinal make everything worse?? people spamming him to add it back would lead to more deletions or something worse.

What happened to the Ordinal?

Wait EJ did you delete the Ordinal just asking or is it something else

i swear to FUCKING god if i get a goatse screamer

cause yall pmtfo

guys the hl2 style ordinal model may or may not have been deleted

this may be a bit harder to do, but do you think you could try to create a model and zbase npc of a hl2-styled construction strider?

spike wall

i think my only issue with your models is the texturing, they look either under-detailed or over-detailed and i think if you nail that inbetween your models will be on par with valve's models

@EJ_5527 I think I was way too harsh on that comment I made. While it is true that you are not quite at Puntley's level yet, I do think you have the potential to get there. The Combine Grunt and the Hazmat Worker models were actually really well made. Development is a process that takes time, and is a learning experience. I don't want to discourage you from making these addons, it's actually the other way around. You won't ever improve if you decide to quit creating this stuff. I really hope that you will continue to work on these addons, especially because they are really fun to mess around with in-game, flaws and all!

These are really nice, as usual. Would you consider adding chest pouch options to the standard transition period soldiers? Similar to TheParryGods' mod.

EJ once again cooking

i personally don't think i took his place, no ones to say that he still can't make much better versions of these and as you've said yeah, i'm no where near the level puntley is at making this kind of stuff and i'm not that good at doing textures as of right now

good model,Nice Work EJ

You Always do a lot of nice work in these models,keep going

(The comment I just made was directed to @MaliceAndTragedy, just so people know.)

I know, and you do have a valid point. My only counterargument is that because the armor is supposed to be a bodygroup, I feel that whatever is below it should be of decent quality. I am saying this because I am a perfectionist that focuses on the lesser details on these things. Not to mention, I have very high expectations for HL2 styled models because of the Combine Worker addon that Puntley made. I am honestly speaking with some bias, as I am a little bit upset with EJ because he pretty much took Puntley's place before Puntley really had a chance to release their take on the HL2 styled HL:A characters. In addition to this, I personally do not feel that EJ is quite yet at the level that Puntley is when it comes to creating this kind of stuff. I'm very sorry if I am being petty about this, I am definitely grateful that we are recieving these addons at all. This is just my take on this, and I respect your opinions, even if we may disagree on this matter.

Could we get a combine medic? *wink wink*

@BusyJimmy I'm not really trying to speak for EJ nor trying to be rude and discourage your criticism, but you barely see what's inside of these Soldiers since they're always seen with their armor on.

new goat drop

I will be very honest with you, though. The models are acceptable (fair-average, somewhat messy), but the textures are abysmal in my opinion (especially when the armor is removed). I would imagine that these were greatly rushed and / or you chose to not put your best effort into them. I feel that the HL:A addons (with the exception of the Combine Grunt and Hazmat Worker) have the same issues. I'm sorry if I am being too harsh, and I understand that it may be quite difficult to make stuff that fit's the HL2 style. I just don't think that they are quite as good as they can be right now. I hope that you will eventually make a revised version of these addons in the future, but I am still grateful that you made these addons.

You know he's the cool guy if his eyes glow in his shadow

gymbine

Nice man you and your crew really do great jobs do you get funded for this cause you should

wait zbase version
