Male Test Subject

NEW ANIMATIONS RELEASED

Almost one year exactly from the initial release of this model, I have finally released the new, finished animations. After having my old computer entirely destroyed, and having no backup of the original animation sources, I was forced to start over entirely. The new animations include a new jumping animation, but other than that, it's mostly the same.

The new release includes female animations, so you can now compile female player models without producing a stretchy-shouldered monster.

IMPORTANT UPDATE

I have made changes important to anyone who plans to make use of this. I have made fixes to the animations again, there was an error in the idle animation, and I have fixed the attachments on the portal gun world model. The lights no longer trail behind the player model. I have also made some changes to the normal mapping, and added a bone merge to the player model, but those changes are less important. The latter merely eliminates a console error message, but has no real affect.

EDIT: Oh crap, I made an error with the muzzle attachment, and one person downloaded it. Sorry to whoever that is.

This isn't the first male test subject released, but it is special. It's the first one to use ValveBiped animations. The included male_anims.mdl file contains animations using the ValveBiped bone rig set to work with Portal. What this means is that, using these animations, any player model for games like Garry's Mod, Half-Life 2 Deathmatch, Obsidian Conflict, or the like could potentially be a Portal player model using this file. I also managed to get the portal gun world model to work with the bone rig while still working properly in maps.

This was a few days work, a lot of trial and error, and the longest amount of time spent was working on the hi-res skin for the citizen model.

Feel free to use this, so long as you credit me. I really hope to see some models pop up using this setup.
