A couple more of Group 01 have been HD-ified (actually these guys except for Male05 were done by the first post but I couldn't fit them in) Not alot to say other than Male 05 took alot more manual work than the rest (except for Male 06 but we'll get to him when the Group 01 is complete)

So I'm working on a character enhancement mod for HL2, I know a couple of these exist already but they've all got little things that just put me off of them. I made these by mixing multiple upscales at different settings and also bringing parts of the Leak facemap back in (Like ears and lips). Theres also more manual adjustments (seen most on Male 01 and Male 04) where an upscale just doesn't work. Alongside just enhancing the faces that exist I'm also adding more. The bloody versions of the Rebel models will now also get their own facemaps (seen there on Male 07), and also the Medic version of Male 05 will get a new facemap (In retail he just reuses the Rebel facemap) If I can genuinely wrap my head around how modelling works I may attempt to add properly modeled hands to characters that lack them.

So, I was looking through the HL2 textures for no real reason and I was looking at this decal and I saw the poster of this character at the bottom right. Anyone know if thats an actual character from some piece of media or is it just a random thing made for the decal? (Is this the right community to post this in? I mean its a texture from Half-Life 2 but is it related enough? If its like not meant to be here I'll repost it as not part of any community cause outside of this it doesn't fit anywhere)

Saw other people making these snapchat Half-Life things so I decided to make one I guess, haven't done posing stuff all that recently Pretty sure I put this in the right category.

So did anyone play around with that Terror-Strike leak from yesterday? Was pretty fun ngl but it just crashes a whole lot (either with semi-high bot counts or playing with other people). Managed to get a couple rounds with bots. Credit to Mike Booth and Turtle Rock Studios (Who originally made the mod, this version is patched a bit) and epicplayer40 (Who added the map you see in the screenshot and some new sounds)

This is just a little thing I did because I thought it'd help modders somehow, basic cutouts of the cliffs in the outside skyboxes from Half-Life (Excluding cliff, because it does a lot of distance things so its probably not as good as a something to slip other skies into) The first two images above are skies I made by combining ones from other games and ones from Half-Life, they arent the best but they work well enough imo. The third is the sky 2desert, but with the sky removed to show what the cut-outs look like. the cut-out template things can be downloaded here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/15UHcm1Lu2BJsxICJfdhnentoflbeRk5k/view?usp=sharing

Totally re-did m0a1 (Seen here: https://community.lambdageneration.com/half-life/post/4frgdme4), m0a0 is kind of done. Was gonna show off the re-textures of the HL:E grunts but image limits so decided to just show off m0a1 and some stuff I did to t0a0. One thing I gotta state is just how glad I am that the HL:E lads have the SDK available to mess with, its seriously great. Yeah not a lot to show but decided to update, I'd make a ModDB page but idk if I have enough content for it to be worth it or allowed (I'm not wholly sure on how that stuff works).

More on that mod I talked about in this post: https://community.lambdageneration.com/half-life/post/4frgdme4 Notable Things: -I am now using the Half-Life: Extended SDK (Which is pretty good, credit to that team!) -Updated version of those Desert Grunts seen in the first post (Re-skins of the HL:E Marines, but still updated because the HL:E people have new models for them) -A training map has been added, set in a civilian gun range. -The Campaign maps have been worked further, m0a0 (Seen in the first two pictures) has now got the more story-based moments in it. -Decided on a name "Half-Life: The Journalist" basic but it'll do. Still have a ways to go before I can release anything for people to try out, but I'll try to have something ready soon (Not the full mod, maybe some campaign maps and the training levels)
