BrussTrigger's HECU (PM+NPC) (+BONUS)

BrussTrigger's high quality touch ups of Half-Life 1's HECU ported to Gmod, with proper Half-Life 1 proportions, and a few other things too.

! IMPORTANT !
If you install the HD classic textures, they must be installed BEFORE this addon, then your game restarted.

If you don't know BrussTrigger or his mods, here is a link to his gamebanana

He has some great models there, including remakes/improvements to (I believe) every human model in Half-Life 1 and its expansions, as well as MMOD (he fixed those weird looking quarterback Barneys.)

So what exactly does this pack contain?

1. BrussTrigger's HECU, with faceposing (even the gas mask/ski mask models can at least open their mouths,) as playermodels and citizen/combine NPCs.
2. The default Half-Life 1 HECU (standard and HD versions) as playermodels and citizen/combine NPCs. May seem redundant, there are other HECU playermodels on the workshop, but these have their original wide shouldered, tall, manly proportions from Half-Life 1. The NPCs are fairly redundant because Gmod comes with their own genuine HECU NPCs and Half-Life Resurgence is a thing, but I may as well have them because it takes literally 10 seconds to turn a playermodel into an NPC.
3. Old Half-Life concept art that I turned into a playermodel/NPC. Specifically, it's (one of) the Half-Life: Alpha designs for the HECU where they had weird mint green colored satchels and were covered in urban camo all over. I'm proud of how they turned out, so I hope you like them! They have cool bodygroups too.
4. A custom head bodygroup for the white HECU that swaps the commander head's beret with a boonie. It's what I imagine the HECU snipers would look like if they had a model.
5. Custom ragdoll physics. Nothing crazy, but they have a backpack hitbox like Half-Life: Source's HECU do, which looks kind of funny when they fall back after dying. Also, full compatibility with Reagdoll/Fedhoria, because it's based on the HL2 ragdoll physics.
6. c_arms for everyone. It's the Opposing Force arms, ported by https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/id/nitestokeh with some touch ups like procedural bones and such. If you want to add procedural bones to your first person arms (to prevent problems like wrist pinching with certain weapons) leave a comment on my profile and I'll tell you how, it's actually very simple.
7. The default weapons for each NPC are the NPC weapons from https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/?id=1360233031 so download that if you want them. If you don't, nothing bad will happen, they'll just spawn empty-handed when "Default Weapon" is selected.

"Can I port the Half-Life: Alpha HECU you made to Half-Life 1?"
I already did https://gamebanana.com/mods/512787

You shouldn't need Half-Life: Source for this mod unless I screwed something up.

Also thanks to the Half-Life Fandom wiki for the concept art, Geisteskrankenchan for helping with so much, and of course BrussTrigger for the models.

There are some problems with the proportions, the arms are too short and can end up looking odd with certain weapons. There's not much that can be done, the arms would need to be extended to gorilla length to be able to reach as far as they need to with their shoulders as wide as they are. Sorry if it bugs you, blame Valve in 1997.
