Mounting system

Post by Pretender »

Hello there,

I have a little question about the mounting system:

What if a map uses stuff from a game (DoD:S for example), that I don't have?
Also I've noticed, that the mod offers enemies from HL1, like the Bullsquid or the Gargantua. But what, if I don't have HL:Source?
Are they going to be replaced?

Thanks for a response!

In most cases you don't need HL:S for the models, since we have a number of community built replacements. I haven't seen much DOD:S stuff being used, but if you don't have it mounted, you cant see the content.

Anyways, you should not mount anything in 1.23 if you want to play online because a steam update broke it, you will most likely get kicked from the server with "no steam logon" every 2 minutes.

Thanks for the hint!

Btw: The models from the 1.3 presentation vids look very HL:S-like or are these models just placeholders?

Some models are from HL:S mount, some are recreations by HIT.
Somebody post the grunts or the garg.

Ok, this one looks like from HL:S, right? This would mean, that the Gargantua enemie wouldn't be visible for me in the game, respectively on a map, where this npc is used? Or wouldn't I just not be able to connect to a map with this enemies or how is it handled?

Hopefully, that people are going to release some replacements for the monsters, too.
Nice models! Romka seems to be very talented.

You ever played oc? because then you would know that higher quality models of most hls npcs are included in the mod, the garg is in too.

Shame on me! :)

It's not installed on my PC currently, but I've played it with high enjoyment in the past (only a few months ago).
Then there was the time to reinstall Windows again and now I'm waiting for 1.3, before I reinstall and start playing OC again. ^^

But bizarrely I've never noticed a map with the Garg or simply can't remember. :roll:

The gargs look similar, but are very different.

The OC one is a lot better... is there a way to put the OC version in HLS?

Get the Model and Materials out of the OC Folder and copy paste them into your HLS Folder wich should be in steamapps\<your>\half-life source
