Thank you for contacting Steam Support.

If the sounds and models are in the SDK, you can use them for you mod. You can use the Zombie model and models from the Episodes as long as you are not making money off your mod. If you are ever looking at selling your mod, you will need to contact the business department at Valve to discuss licensing fees.
I sent and got a reply to this email a while ago, but it used to says "modesl" so I waited for them to reply with a fixed spelling version of this email. Anyways, it seems like a pretty solid email for pemission on the topic of the zombine model, and even the Ministrider and Antlion Worker come their SDK release.

Anyone left in this community with complaints about these things being "illegal content" still? I mean our roots, sven co-op, never had to ask permission to include mostly every NPC from OP4.

PLEEZ!

Yes, yes and yes!

Tbh it makes sense, Valve really screwed around too much with episodes, Orange boxes and gifts of your old copies, It kind of just got out of hand, and copyright wise, If we are all orange box owners and declare ourseleves an 'Orange box' mod well then we get the lot, lock, stock and barrel surely?

It got too comlicated and I think they know this.

We don't evne need to declare outselves an orange box mod for the goodies... According to this, we can get the NPCs and such, and anything else we can just mount like we usually do.
