    Thanks whoppa :P


    Also I fixed the annotations, they now link to the part on the timeline it should link to. For those interested, what I did was simply add the #t=XmYs to the link in the Annotation Editor, instead of using the little time "Start linked video at:" box, the X|Y are min|sec

    you can thank lauschin for that as seen in this topic <a href="http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/youtube/mndZECXsvC0" target="_blank">http://productforums.google.com/forum/#...ube/mndZECXsvC0</a>

    Asking this here since it seems appropriate

    Is there currently any easy way to override default models/sounds etc without replacing the actual game files?

    I.e how Source does it where all the game files are kept in archives and you can drop custom files into the game folders which will be used unless the server is set to pure.

    Would be a nice thing if they could add it later if it's not already in, would work nicely with consistency checking too.

    The modding system is already similar to that. You drop them into the folder, run the mod, but the gameplay is the same as normal. Unfortunately client-side consistency checking will rule out this abililty at Version 1.0 release, to prevent people from substituting models to cheat with.

    Yep, it's too bad this mod will probably go bye bye as well. Maybe weapon models could still be modable . I'm actually running around with black armored hands and also black weapons :P

    This x1000, please.

    We already have a model similar to the classic NS1 marine with deluxe model, aliens need some love in the cosmetic department.

    I'll inquire about it, if it is at all possible to keep a mod like this active once it goes v1.0. I can understand for competitive play these are a nono, as they are a fraction more visible I guess than the purple aliens.

    I just don't want to go back the the purple creatures :P

    >_>


    I actually have one of those as well (<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qoR3ffRnsco" target="_blank">unreleased NS2Pixel</a>) as an attempt to stop the hitching of materials streaming in and out of memory. It did help to some extent, but the game code load and the lack of "Level of Detail" models, kinda made it a moot point in terms of FPS++

    Updated the mod, the Fade, Lerk and Onos (tentacle) viemodels now are similar to the world models. And the now has redish-dark-grey spike shooters on the world model. Download link is the same, just a new file in the first post :)

    Some screenshots of the changes:

    Wow, nice job! The lerk screenshot instantly throughs me back in time.
    Would be very cool to have those classic models as option.. or maybe integrated in the Classic mod?

    <strike>I've added a comment to the workshop. Currently it shows as active (liar :P) and will also update or say it is up to date in the mod menu, however build 220 doesn't support "Cosmetic" mods like this one yet.</strike>

    It does work now in Build 221
