Description

"Also known as "Frank", "Francis", or "Buzzsaw" and having been born in the quiet colony of Minister in the year of 2509, Franklin had nothing to do in his younger years, all but being a good kid, have good grades and be a good student. But as his youth started to run out he began to realize how much of his life had been wasted not doing the things he really wanted to do. So at the age of 19, he got himself a job and began to save up money for something he really wanted: a Motor-bike.

He somehow became involved in a biker gang at the age of 24, and found himself facing a fine of a couple thousand credits after an accident that led to the destruction of his bike and he was given two choices: serve time in jail for the minor accident or join the corp. Frank did what any sane man at the time would do and he signed his papers to join the UNSC.

He rose up the ranks and specialised in tank service, he fell in love with the M808C Scorpion line and well, it was a definitive step up from a bike. A beast that shot High Explosive rounds and .50 cals, she was a beast. He served for most of the Human-Covenant War, changing call-signs a few times and even divisions, but he never let go of the M808C. At least not until now."

This is a survivor model made specifically to fit the theme of the Gravemind overhaul project for L4D2, it includes custom VGUI, face flexes and eye tracking for lip sync and facial animations.

Includes Boomer Bile details.

Replaces the Passing Francis model.

Mod-a-Mod support for modders to easily create skin mods to apply to the base mod.

@Adorabirb I'm pumped about all of what you said.

Adorabirb! [author] 1 May, 2022 @ 9:40pm

@Slimybirch I was just waiting on some friends to make high resolution textures for his outfit. and when I was nearly done, the last stand update happened and I had to take time to update him to use the new animations and fixes. then I got distracted w other mods I had to update and make. But I will release him soon. probably when I finish these weapon updates.

@Adorabirb I read some comments back from like 2018 that you were working on a Louis? What happened to him? I love your work on this and I would contribute if I knew anything about these modding tools. Any tips on where to begin? I know how to open .vpk files and delete stuff that causes conflicts and that's it.

@Slimybirch I could. or I can do it myself w actual shape keys and lip sync.

https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2093522446 @Adorabirb any chance you could ask Monkey_Rebel to make this into Louis? Would go great with the other three Gravemind survivors for L4D1.
