PPG: Half-Life & Portal Characters (v3.01)

NOW WITH THE 3.0 UPDATE OUT, PICTURES ON THE MOD PAGE ARE NOW OUTDATED, BE AWARE.

Hello and welcome to my new Half-Life mod, I've spent a little over a year working on this and I am glad to say it is fully finished major update wise. This adds ONLY skins for humans of different characters from the Half-Life & Portal universe. Items, weapons, and other miscellaneous things from half-life will not be added unless I feel like doing it. If you have suggestions, feel free to post them, just a heads up though - suggestions will only be added if I feel it'd make a great addition and I have time to make it. I do plan on adding more over time at my own volition as well. No planned major updates will occur however and will only be on a patch-by-patch basis.

I also would like to give @whats a big thanks, who has helped me countless times with this mod. Including some bits of the code and some graphical designs such as all the mod's spawning icons (which was rightfully his design, I just modified it a bit to fit with my mod).

Changelog/Update Info:
If you're wanting to look at the changelog of the mod, I always try to keep it detailed for any update besides bug fixes. It can be found here: PPG: Half-Life Humans Changelog

Headcrabs:
If you're wanting headcrab zombies, use this: Science Hazard Minus or this Ajay's Headcrab Mod based on your preference. Both are fantastic mods.

• Will non-human/custom entities be added, possibly Combine Synths & Xen Creatures?
  No, I don’t have any knowledge on how to create and code custom entities, and unfortunately do not have time to learn. This is basically the same reason I won’t make SCPs or animals. Hopefully there will be a mod pack of Combine Synths, Xen, & Race-X Creatures from someone else though.
  
  
• Will weapons ever be added, if so, could fan made & beta weapons be added too?
  Likely another no, unfortunately the steam cloud incident I had (long story if you haven't heard) sent me back to the Stone Age on this mod when it happened, which cost me a lot of time. Unfortunately, as of now, I wouldn’t have enough time to add the official weapons, therefore the same goes for fan made & beta too. Very sorry, I had them planned in the beginning, but steam f’ed it up, so blame steam for canceling weapons and delaying the 3.0 update by tenfold.
  
  
• What exactly was the “steam cloud incident”?
  Back in fall 2022, I started work on the 3.0 update for the mod, which as time went on, more and more additions and work went into the mod. Though, as some point in winter of 2022, I needed to reinstall steam due to computer complications. Eventually, I got back into steam, and reinstalled people playground. One thing I need to mention for the context is that, the steam cloud, a well known service that steam uses to sync game files and data (such as save data), I always kept switched off for people playground because it’d also sync modding files, which would overwrite or undelete edited or deleted files that I didn’t need or that were older than the current one in the folder. Which would obviously undo all the work I do, or disorganize the entire root mod folder. However, the day I reinstalled people playground, it reset the steam cloud by to on by default after it was switched off so long, which caused more than 3 quarters of progress to be overwritten or replaced and synced old files which completely disorganized my workflow. This caused me to take months off for a break, then when I restarted work on the 3.0 update, I had to essentially restart from scratch. And on top of that, I had to deal with events in life, which in the end, is the reason why it took more than a whole year to finally complete the 3.0 update. Sadly it burnt me out for even longer, to this day, I still feel the burn out from that event.
