Obviously, people try to keep it as low as possible, as some people have "download limits" set for their pac, to avoid whopping 300 mb characters wandering. People try to keep a collective 50 mb at max for their characters.

People have been using your addon a lot for "Half-Life 2 Roleplay" servers, think like DnD but for Gmod, and because the server doesn't have this addon installed, we tend to just do it via the method above.

I haven't grabbed your model quite yet, but I'll look into it.
If I downscale the textures, should I expect the wrapping to get messy? or is that something that'll only affect the appearance of the textures rather wrapping?


Thanks for getting to me.
~Appreciated, Player.

Thanks @Pretzel

Oh, Pac 3 is an add-on for Gmod.
I'm surprised you haven't heard of it, it's essentially a very rudimentary character editor that allows you to stick models onto your character model, normally it's for aesthetics, but people get really crazy, and essentially import outside models into the game.
Sometimes these models are optimized and are completely bone-rigged, othertimes they're not, it's all a pass-or-fail for the model.

Anyways, what people do is they download addons, gmad export all their vmts, vtfs, mdls, vvds, etc, and put them in a folder. Then they zip it into a zip "store" file, which they upload to "Dropbox" - a file hosting service. From this, they share the dropbox url, and implement the file share as a "model path" as the desired model they want to take, which makes clients "download" their pac.

No. I’m pretty sure most of the filesize is due to the textures, I’m sure if you downscaled the default textures to 2k and only used those the filesize would be much lower. I could chop of the head but I don’t want to, you’re free to do that yourself if you wish. Not sure what PAC 3 is though, sounds like a game, I’d suggest you grab the original files instead of an optimized version of the model for an older engine.
RED KNIGHT 24 May, 2021 @ 12:41am 
Is there any way to lower the file size?
I'm intending to upload it onto dropbox for PAC 3 use, but I'd hope not to use over 100 mb for models if possible.

If it's worth your time, would you maybe consider cutting the body off, and leaving a head model as a separate file? It wouldn't need to be anything fancy. Just a slicer from the base of the head or something.

Dunno. Might be in Red Menace and Smug Bastard’s Combine pack. I haven’t played any of the games so I didn’t put enough love and care into my metrocop and I don’t think that will change until I do play them, but Red and Smug have and they may have done that already.

What if someone made a version of this model but it looked like the HL2 leak from 2002
Pretzel  [author] 19 Jul, 2020 @ 12:39am 
The glow on the helmet could be a bit smaller but that ain't too shabby

a dangerous milkman 17 May, 2020 @ 6:33am 
could you port your pink panther model from GMOD to SFM?

Nice stunstick. What was up with the reupload though?

Welcome. Welcome to City 17. You have chosen, or been chosen, to relocate to one of our finest remaining urban centers. I thought so much of City 17 that I elected to establish my Administration here, in the Citadel so thoughtfully provided by Our Benefactors. I have been proud to call City 17 my home. And so, whether you are here to stay, or passing through on your way to parts unknown, welcome to City 17. It's safer here.
Pretzel  [author] 17 Apr, 2020 @ 3:41pm 
I'm not taking model port commissions or requests.

Pretzel  [author] 16 Apr, 2020 @ 5:21pm 
Not sure, try redownloading
Pinwheel Arts 16 Apr, 2020 @ 3:20pm 
Loving this model, but for some reason the textures on the default skin are totally black. Any idea what's wrong?
AwesomeSuperSonic 16 Apr, 2020 @ 12:37pm 
The other skins for this model scares me
TheLemurSoldier 16 Apr, 2020 @ 8:24am 
That CP at the last picture on the left lol
mars-5200  [author] 15 Apr, 2020 @ 4:19pm

Theodore Masters Peterson 15 Apr, 2020 @ 2:16pm 
Nice, can't wait.
Pretzel  [author] 15 Apr, 2020 @ 1:57pm 
Probably
Theodore Masters Peterson 15 Apr, 2020 @ 1:41pm 
Is the Alyx model gonna be uploaded to the workshop?
Pretzel  [author] 15 Apr, 2020 @ 1:33pm 
@JustAP ah just checked, I think you're talking about the one that goes with the combine grunt. Yeah I don't port that one because it doesn't look right with metrocop and I'm pretty sure in game the metrocop don't use that one
Pretzel  [author] 15 Apr, 2020 @ 12:46pm 
Check the last promo
Numbskill 15 Apr, 2020 @ 11:57am 
Can't wait for the model of Alyx to be ported.
Theodore Masters Peterson 15 Apr, 2020 @ 10:02am 
Oh, nice.
Con 15 Apr, 2020 @ 6:29am 
@ rick may it's a far superior port, check out the textures alone: http://prntscr.com/rzufuy
JPBabnil 15 Apr, 2020 @ 5:34am 
they don't use default HL2 stunstick. it's in one of the combine props folders, not the weapons folder.
Theodore Masters Peterson 15 Apr, 2020 @ 5:33am 
we already have 2 ports of this guy, why do we need this
Pretzel  [author] 15 Apr, 2020 @ 1:38am 
with all this anger guilt and sadness coming to haunt me forever
