Screamer Jockey

This mod changes the Jockey's appearnce to resemble that of the Screamer, a cut special infected.

Disclaimer: This mod does not attempt to recreate the mechanics and behavious of the Screamer and it does not add a new special into the game. It's quite literally just a cosmetic change for the Jockey

The reason I've decided to replace the Jockey with him is that I think they share some similarities: both maniacally giggle, both are super annoying (the entire reason the Screamer was cut was because he was deemed to annoying to fight). There's already a Screamer mod on the Workshop but this one does not intend to compete with that, I just liked the Screamer's design, that's all.

I really like how this turned out, honestly. The belts on the back look all spine-like and add to the Jockey's hunchback and the crazy look fits his sounds (I highly suggest you sub to tomaz' Loud version of the Jockey Leap Que script, if you want this guy to, y'know, actually scream). For the sake of staying faithful to the concept art, his arms remain restrained, sometimes it might look a bit goofy when he's riding survivors.

I guess you could also call this my TRS Inspired Jockey, since it just makes him fit with the vibe of the early beyta. You can also use [xdR] Gmod Jockey anims to straighten him out for true concept art accuracy.

This WILL conflict with that one other Screamer mod, since they sue the same materials paths.

Features:

• TRS-styled design
  
• Hair Jigglebones
  
• LODs
  
• Burn textures (kinda broken, they don't show up on the shoes and the hair)
  
• Compatible with L4D1 Smoker/Hunter re-textures, since the shoes and the pants use their textures
