Hey, I tried adding you as a friend but you didn't recognize me, and I tried to message back but it says I can't message non-friends for some reason. If you could add me as a friend It'd be much appreciated!

Subbed, downloaded, retextured it to make him look younger with dark hair, took less than a minute

I'd be happy to do that if only someone pointed me in the direction of how to do that, and what tools I should learn in order to do that!
[Olive] Pestilence ☣  [author] 5 Nov, 2024 @ 9:14am 
there could be, if somebody re textured it. Not really my field of expertise though.

Is there a version with black hair?
TCMOREIRA 8 Oct, 2023 @ 12:19pm 
Better than nothing I guess! 😅

Well, perhaps. I'm not really very active in the modding community. Occasionally I post something that is usually an edit of somebody else's things.
TCMOREIRA 7 Oct, 2023 @ 6:26pm 
Is there any way you could attract some attention to your mod in order to get some help from modders who have done similar things in the past?
[Olive] Pestilence ☣  [author] 7 Oct, 2023 @ 5:42pm 
I'm not a texture artist, so I don't think my work would be adequate on any of those suggestions. I suppose I could make his hair less grey in paint dot net ... as for the eyes, I don't think using default Eli eyes would work.
TCMOREIRA 7 Oct, 2023 @ 5:35pm 
Well, I wish you'd improve 2 things:
1) Touch-up his appearence so that he looks 15 years younger (as he should).
2) Give him proper eyes. The current ones feel like he's distant and lifeless.There are plenty of mods that touch-up charater's eyes in boh Black Mesa and Half-Life 2, look for those.

@TCMOREIRA, this was sorta simple to make in the first place, so I'm not really sure what else to do. I'm no expert at making models, I basically just combined 2 different models.
TCMOREIRA 29 Sep, 2023 @ 8:41pm 
Are there any improvements planned for this? Are you working on them?
[Olive] Pestilence ☣  [author] 13 Sep, 2023 @ 11:06am 
@Jesteroo Not sure how he would be the Half-life 2 model, unless you had some other mod overwriting it
Jesteroo 13 Sep, 2023 @ 8:43am 
how do I fix Eli has the same original model like the half life 2 model
TCMOREIRA 9 Sep, 2023 @ 2:52pm 
You could fix his eyes by using this:

TCMOREIRA 9 Sep, 2023 @ 2:46pm 
FINALLY!! Now if only you could de-age him to be 20 years younger...
[Olive] Pestilence ☣  [author] 8 Sep, 2023 @ 5:59pm 
@ModderOfGames He might be, I bet Kleiner gave him something to calm him down. XD
ModderOfGames 8 Sep, 2023 @ 5:55pm 
what's with his eyes?? he looks high off his mind
Loafy 6 Sep, 2023 @ 8:28am 
Finally
someone gave Eli a head
[Olive] Pestilence ☣  [author] 6 Sep, 2023 @ 12:12am 
in this case, just crowbar was needed, as the models were already separated into different .smd's for the head and body, but most of the time you'd need to use blender too. I am terrible at blender myself.
virgil 5 Sep, 2023 @ 8:36pm 
What programm have you used to work with models?
CqmrdeUwU 4 Sep, 2023 @ 5:05pm 
ik, it just feels- disturbing since it was made for source 2 and not source 1
[Olive] Pestilence ☣  [author] 4 Sep, 2023 @ 4:37pm 
All I did was port it, but I can tell you a bit about the background of the face of Eli. He was actually a homeless man that valve hired, and never credited. He is to this day, unidentified. The model done for HL Alyx was based off the original scans from the first ones done for HL2.
CqmrdeUwU 4 Sep, 2023 @ 4:11pm 
i just cant think nor belive that this is something a real human made. its not its- it feels like a liminal space but a human?
[Olive] Pestilence ☣  [author] 4 Sep, 2023 @ 4:09pm 
How so?
CqmrdeUwU 4 Sep, 2023 @ 3:57pm 
no.
this is not real.
MR.SUPERIOR 4 Sep, 2023 @ 1:13am 
If his hair could only be black
Because in Black Mesa He Is Younger
LarrySBM 3 Sep, 2023 @ 6:25pm 
I also appreciate this mod but it kinda feels off in comparison to the other humans, also those eyes stare at my soul
