Ive done some stupid shit awhile back so every time i try to verify my files, it will always be 34 files failed to verify so my half life 2 might have been broken too lol

I'm not sure if my HL2 installation is bugged or there is a problem with a random ass mod causing the crashing.

Was it like that before

ughhh I'm trying to figure out whats causing these unpredictable crashes. Like it sometimes it happens when loading maps or in very specific spots in d1_town_05 and d3_c17_13 when killing a certain combine solider.

nvm

damn it I realized I somehow accidentally removed some of these thx

Ok thx for adding

done, I didn't include the vortigaunt because imo it doesn't really fit the HLA kinda theme and the alyx model won't be compatible

and add these over antlion ik mod https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3547121065 , https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3378868039

how about this https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3529939229 for dog and https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3370021468 for the vortigaunts (bit of wrinkly to add some texture to normal vort)
also i have used this alyx mod in the past idk if it would fit in with others hla clothes change https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3371525804

@LoopyDeceny yeah some of the model replacements don't have correct animations, crash the game, or there is just no good one available. Like for the HLA Dog, it crashes the game and for the Vortigaunts, they t-pose in the beginning of Episode 1

May i have a question why dont you replace all the missing npcs? Is it of the crashes or you havent found anything good?

Aight happy to help. Looking foward to the showcase vid

thx

surprised I missed a lot of these

For touch-up and QOL improvements, this guy's collection https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3370179196 should provide more than enough

Nice. A few more to add are the rest of the hd rugs, upscale eyes and magnusson

@LoopyDeceny added

There is a new hla strider mod that can be used in all hl2 and episodes that i think you should check out https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3540324516
The only left are the zombies and headcrabs

@LoopyDeceny damn nice find 🔥 added

I think this one looks great https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3559251244

@LoopyDeceny I had to exclude them from the list and have a link to manually download from Gamebanana in the description because for some dumb reason when you have ANY mod that replaces citizens in Episode 2, there's ALWAYS missing textures. Also for the HLA Gman I couldn't really find a good one that doesn't look ugly as hell but I'll try to find one.

I recommend you to add citizen's and gman's mods too since you left them untouched.

nvm subtitles are still broken

even the subtitles work now

hold up I just finally figured out that the Immersive First Person Death and Serverside Ragdolls are causing 99% of these problems 🤦‍♂️

It's good that you're making some good effort. Especially making sure that the mods wont bloat the vram to crash even at 1080p lol

gotta love the workshop quirks

@LoopyDeceny yeah I noticed the workshop tends to be very sensitive when it comes to model full on model replacements like from HLA Assets, Remade Assets, and HLA Styled Citizens especially in the episodes. I am trying to figure out what is causing the weird CTD's from time to time when loading directly into maps but I might just be hitting a hard limit with the workshop loading so many mods.

I would much prefer something that add graphical changes wo crashing like other hla collections. So thank you for making this collection. It works great(so far).
