Old Models in New CM [Downloads + Instructions]
Posted: 10 Nov 2011, 17:25
It seems I'm not the only one who would like to use older models in the new versions of CM so I've created this topic to upload models people would like. Right now, the download for the materials folder is rather large (~600MB) since I don't know EXACTLY which folders are needed so I'm erring on the side of caution, but hopefully soon I'll be able to go through the files so I can exclude the ones that aren't necessary. If someone would like to help me figure out which folders are needed it'd be much appreciated.
NOTE: I'm including instructions for the first model, for any subsequent models, I'll just provide links to the files, just follow the same steps. Also, there's a LOT of models and right now each model is about a 700MB upload in total, so I'll only be uploading models that people request. If you can give a picture or specify a model in a version of CM, then I can probably find it.
In any case, this first model is a sort of hybrid Alyx from CM 10.42, which was later removed for some reason in 10.90 and 10.94:

1. Copy the folder below into your CM installation directory in steamapps/sourcemods. It will ask you to merge the folders, but no files will be overwritten. This will make the hybrid Alyx appear in your Character Pimper, and you can install it from here.

2. If you run the game now, you will likely get purple and black "textures", indicating missing textures. If this happens you will need to copy the files I have included below. Again, copy the 'hl2' folder into your root installation directory, but this time the files will be in 'materials/models'. Merge the folders, but don't overwrite anything, as you just need to copy files that don't exist yet (I haven't spent the time to single out EXACTLY which files are needed, so I just included all the likely suspects). After you have copied the textures over, the model should appear as it does in the picture, if not, let me know.
