I agree. This mod would be perfect then. Already does a good job

can you pls made it then

@larsperkele never made compatibility patch for it, so i don't know

is this working with bmcer?

@Theplayerthatexists well, i guess this addon is possibly outdated, and to be honest, i can't really be bothered to update this, sorry

I am not using the classic guards and ties pack, I'm just using the regular BMCE with this mod and classic headcrabs. Also I just noticed that the construction worker zombie is missing textures.

@Theplayerthatexists don't know the issue, if it's the issue with Classic Guards and Ties, it might be because that addon is outdated, sorry

I'm getting missing textures on the zombie security guard's vest and gun, is there a fix?

Thanks!

@Theplayerthatexists ideally it should be in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\362890\2725083844",

What is the file directory for this addon?

@Thaddeus good to know, no problem, accidents happen, thanks for the info

@dude guy man marine doom The mod works. I'm a giant dumbass that didn't understand how .vpk files got read by the game fully, nor all my options for trying to troubleshoot. I had to install it manually via extracting the .vpk contents with GFScape and creating a custom/mods folder to put them in, but after that? Worked fine. Can change the title back now.

@Thaddeus well it's not that difficult but i am not good at explaining and/or teaching, sorry

Well shit, I know how to do exactly none of that.

@thaddeus i do have the time, it's just i don't feel like doing it, but yeah what i did was simply just decompiled the zombie models, and i did some simple .qc file editing and replacing .smd files with headcrab ones from classic headcrab addon

How would someone go about updating it if that were the problem, anyhow? If you don't have the time, if it doesn't require much *too* technical, like maybe updating pathways/texture names or _dir alterations, I could maybe make an attempt. Though honestly, I'm just as tempted to pay you for the time it'd take, if that'd sway you. This is like the one thing about my modding setup that bums me out, the variants not working with classic crab.

But other people only mentioned texture problems.

Basically, all zombies that would be BMCE variants show up as Scientist zombies without a headcrab on them. It only shows up if it gets knocked off as it dies.

@Thaddeus what do you mean by "Actually, *should* I be getting scientist zombies without the headcrab in place of the variants"?

Looking at the changelog it doesn't *seem* like it would be anything that affects the zombies? Actually, *should* I be getting scientist zombies without the headcrab in place of the variants? It's been like that across 3 computers now, but I don't know if that's atypical or not. Other people here were talking about textures just not loading or things like that.

@Thaddeus possible, but to be quite honest, i can't really be bothered anymore to update this, sorry

@dude guy man marine doom I'm just getting the same headcrabless scientists in place of BMCE variants as I've always gotten. Even putting it in a 'custom-load-last' folder and mounting that via gameinfo after custom. I know BMCE updated on New Year's Eve. Could that have anything to do with it?

@Thaddeus i don't know what the issue might be, sorry, but yes, it does read alphabetically

Where should this go in the load order? As far as I know it reads custom alphabetically, and leaving it at 01a or whatever it doesn't seem to work.

@Captain you only have to put !0A_Classic_Headcrab_2022_BMCE.vpk for it to work with BMCE

@Mister Mann it wasn't made for BMCER in mind

This mod doesn't seem to work? I've put both 0A_Classic_Headcrab_2022_BMCE.vpk and 0A_BMCE_Classic_Headcrab_Zombies.vpk but I only get the normal scientist and guard zombies instead of the BMCE zombies.

please update addon for support with BMCE Addon - Black Mesa Character Expansion Revised

Specifices mostly missing textures

It's weird I was able to use this today with BMCER it all of a sudden began to spaz out when I was at the guard where you get the shotgun early in office complex.

yo new bmce update broke this mod they updated a lot of the textures so now most zombies are purple and black textures because your mods trying to call the old texture so you may wanna update this with the new content.

alr

@Plague doctor if you don't use "BMCE Addon - Classic Guards and Ties", yes, you can delete it

so do i just delete "0a_BMCE_Classic_Headcrab_Zombies_Classic_Guards_And_Ties.vpk"?

@Baguette. maybe, the BMCER for i know only changes the human npc's
i searched trough the files and i found nothing related to zombies npc's

@Baguette i don't know

does this work with BMCER?

@H.156 thanks

@dude guy man marine doom good, thanks a lot
now take the rest you deserve; good luck and take care.

@H.156 done https://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2777258260

@dude guy man marine doom well, that's fine
we all have a limit and we deserve to rest as long as we deserve.
thanks for taking my request anyways, good luck.

@H.156, alright, i'll probably do it, however this'll probably be the last request i'll do for a while simply because i mostly make mods for myself and/or to make convenience for other people at my own pace

@dude guy man marine doom yes

@H.156 https://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1520452327 this?

well, if you can make something like this but with the "Half-Life 1 Classic Headcrab" (and preferably with the BMCE - Classic Guard and Ties), do you think steam points are enough motivation?
and if so, take the time you need to do it.

@H.156 nah, however if someone requests me a mod that i am able to do i may or may not do it, it really just depends on my motivation

nice mod, it's awesome to see the classic headcrab in the BMCE, btw
do you do mod commissions or something similar?

@dude guy man marine doom Okay, it's still also possible to do in blender, good work

@TheHunterAttacks no modelling software used, just simple QC editing and SMD file replacements
