he looks inocent yet menacing at the same time

I don't know why that happens.

If you put it in the custom folder it probably won't do that, but I'm not 100% sure.

in the lambda copse level, the vortigaunt become normal black mesa vortigaunt. But in previous level, the mod worked. Can you explain this please?

Galunga

I have the mod but it shows the black mesa vortigaunt how do i fix it?

i really like how you've made these look, it just makes sense for them to look this buff

imagine if the vortigaunts looked like that in hl2

To 'Brain Dead',

Now that you've mentioned it, I did subscribe to the 'Corrected and Improved Hitboxes' workshop mod a while ago. I've just unsubscribed the hitbox mod, and gave another try and yeah, I can actually see that the 'classic' model for the Alien Slaves are showing up again. Thanks for that.

Sorry for the confusion though, I thought it that it would be a problem concerning pre-loading Steam Workshop content for Black Mesa Source.

Are you using a hitbox mod or anything like that?

To 'Brain Dead',

Tried the workshop subscription, as well as manually installing the classic Alien Slave model onto the custom folder, but even by doing that, the default HL2 model for the Alien Slaves is still being used. Although when gibbing an Alien Slave, the giblets at least resemble the classic model.

its invisable

Makes the Vorts look more of an alien threat. I like it.

Just perfect!

as in "1.0 fix"

It's already updated.

Hey I'm wondering does this need an update for the dodge mechanic for vorts in 1.0 update

I hope this gets updated soon

@ANueUtsuho
I notice the same thing with many other npc skin/model changes from the workshop, for all NPCs but vorts especially - frequently, the workshop skins only load after a map transition but not from a save or a new game.

It doesn't seem to work as of today's update. I tried restarting the map and everything but it still just uses the HL2 Vortigaunt

Thanks, finally got it to work.

This guide should show you what to do. -> Setting up a "Custom" Folder

Keep in mind that you only need to do this if you want to use the custom folder instead of just subscribing normally.

What do you add to the gameinfo.txt to make it work?

Aha, thank you! I forgot to change the gameinfo.txt.

That's weird. It's still working for me. Maybe unsubscribe and resubscribe to download it again.

Also if you're using the custom folder make sure you've added it to the gameinfo.txt file since the game's last update. I always forget to do that.

Edit, tried both of your options, moving it to the Custom folder didn't seem to help either.
All of the other models work fine, it just seems this one won't, tried in both Xen and non Xen maps too.

Sometimes workshop mods take some time to load when you start up the game. I'm pretty sure everything in the custom folder will work instantly though, so if you're not already using the custom folder, that might help.

Just loaded into Interloper, got the rest of your models, Grunts show up fine but these won't.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

fr awesome!

Thanks for updating it quickly dude

It should work now.

not working as of interloper :( pls fix

why are them shoulders so T H I C C

I hope to see an Alien Grunt with its big sharp teeth again. They have flat human teeth now and basically that's one of the only downgrades this remake has.

yeah... it's a gameplay feature. it's intended, and it's apparently impossible to change it: https://sp.zhabite.com/app/362890/discussions/0/1643167006260866242/#c1643167006260921782

@altoids You do realize he's not the one responsible for that trash ass feature, right?

Would it be possible for you to make a Classic style Ichthyosaur with goofy front teeth and dumb buggy eyes and everything?

god the eye glow is terrible, please tone it down significantly.

WORT WORT WORT

Already been done, Gray-Chan. https://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=482923027

Could you do a version that is the HL2 vortigaunt, but with these shackles?

Good job

almost looks like the dreamcast vortigaunt

This is the best one you've done. This looks so good in game it puts Black Mesa's to shame. You should do the Classic Zombie next. I miss the giant shoulders that made them look meatier. And maybe even a slightly visible skull underneath the crab like it was originally? Could be tight. You should maybe even try to do a really good HECU to replace Romankas, but that's optionally. You've provided a hell of a service here. This and Nostalgia pack really makes me feel like I'm playing Half Life HD rather than Black Mesa, the mod. Keep up the flawless work man!

It looks awesome. Love the red eye. As for the arms? I don't think anyone could say they are buff. They look about 13 inches to me. Purrr-fect :)

Woah, he looks cool!

@Hermann, to make both Black Mesa and Half-Life 2 share consistency, you can use either of these:
