ah, ok, I actually have another, smaller request
do you think you could add the gibs?

They’re not actually just gliding—there’s an animation for it that’s being used. Plus, even if they’ve lost their legs, they still have wings to carry themselves toward you.

its just that.. its kinda goofy watching an antlion with no legs glide toward the player and attack them

question, will you add the limping animations when a limb gets damaged?

IG this is a replacment

pettable

Very mature.

shut up

Antlions don’t “avoid” water, only thumpers. If the target’s close or nodes exist, they’ll path straight in—been that way since HL2. Workers only survive if yanked out instantly because CBaseEntity::WaterLevel() resets before NPCThink() applies drown damage; normally CheckWater() just runs a timer then calls TakeDamage(DMG_DROWN). No hidden “worker logic,” just a timing quirk. Forcing water exclusion means extra path cost checks every eval = wasted performance. Short answer: not gonna happen—if you want to tank your own framerate adding it in, go ahead.

also why the fuck can zombies survive water despite headcrabs drowning in hl2

and by both i mean hl2 antlions and antlion workers

so i was wrong
both are guarenteed to die
but guards are completely unable to drown

well no from experience antlion workers stop drowning after a bit outside of water
and i havent seen any antlions walk into water willingly like fast headcrabs do

I can't control whether or not they choose to path into water, half-life's antlions also path to water and actively jump into it if you're nearby. Pulling them out of water does nothing, they have a death trigger in their code that actively kills them after "x" amount of time.

how about making them not walk into water or making them able to survive water if taken out of it like hl2 antlions/ep2 antlion workers

Each armor segment is less than 25hp a part, if you're struggling with that I'm not sure what to tell you.

can you make it so that there is a option for light armor? so they can break? i am looking to do a horde mode game with this but the armor is way too much

The giant sack? You can fire at them from any weak-point and cripple or kill them.

This is a work of art. However I do wish the method of fighting was more accurate as being able to shoot out the giant sack would be awsome. Overall W mod

Correct

They got 3 pairs of wings

K. And I don't know how that would work because I don't make mods ;-;

I could change that by checking your steam library to make sure any addon I upload makes sure you have the game present on your account

HLA runs on an entirely different engine to source. So no.

Do you need Alyx for this to work?

Yeah I'm fixing everything as I'm going. Antlions are the biggest bitch due to how much crap they have.

Can you fix the dismemberment system cuz revamp removed the animation table for it, I'm try to fix it and got only burrow working.

Robert did a really good fucking job with those screenshots god damn

That's not what I said though??

Cool Dude, Hyped On the Bug Bait UPDATE!!11

Though i've been more focused on a replacement lately. Since people wanted that so badly, I made a bunch of alterations to the base game antlions, new animations, events, models, etc. As well as a replacement for the antlion guard (utilizing the RTX version of it)

I thought about making bug-bait compatibility where if the target has it in their possession, the antlions would be friendly to them

is there anyway to make them friendly like in that one section in hl2

nice mod

just realised my comment is stupid and might just be because the lack of ai nodes

@epickpro85 that error tells me you don't have the resource pack present, which is there for extended functions outside of vj base.

[Half-Life Alyx: Antlions] Couldn't include file 'entities\dodgefunc.lua' - File not found or is empty (@lua/entities/npc_vj_hla_antlion/init.lua (line 3))
1. unknown - lua/entities/npc_vj_hla_antlion/init.lua:3

im getting a few errors as of this date and this aint the only one can you look into em

They can only see like 1 cm infront of them + they don't roam, is this a bug or a conflicting addon?

I agree, I like what Valve did with their design and overall behavior with HL:A, curious to see what else they do with them in the future

i think these antlions are cooler than the original hl2 ones

Very good! I'm glad it also has the AI, dismemberment feature and armor from the HL:A antlions! It would be cool to receive a HL2 style version of it, keeping those HL:A features (and probably the animations?) and keeping the HL2 model quality.

Very good addon

Idk? what does that have to do with this addon?

is it just me or eventullay do all the half life alyx npc mods break and loose there textures

v lol

Oh thank God I can finally call it quits.

WARNING! Carry on reading! Or you will die, even if you only looked at the word warning! Once there was a little girl called Clarissa, she was ten-years-old and she lived in a mental hospital, because she killed her mom and her dad. She got so bad she went to kill all the staff in the hospital so the More- government decided that best idea was to get rid of her so they set up a special room to kill her, as humane as possible but it went wrong the machine they were using went wrong. And she sat there in agony for hours until she died. Now every week on the day of her death she returns to the person that reads this letter, on a monday night at 12:00a.m. She creeps into your room and kills you slowly, by cutting you and watching you bleed to death. Now send this to ten other profiles on this one site, and she will haunt someone else who doesn't. This isn't fake. apparently, if u copy and paste this to ten comments in the next ten minutes u will have the best of your life. TIC TOC

Possible to get models, sounds, and textures. Not possible to get animations, so no.

would you consider ever making SNPCs for the tyranids from space marine 2?

dear GOD BRO i js realised drvrej is here hes a LEGEND
