Chapter Overhaul: Surface Tension

Description
This mod REQUIRES Black Mesa Character Expansion AND one of its non-default HECU modules (BMCE HECU or Romka's Classic HECU). Otherwise, it won't work properly! Please make sure they're properly installed first!

A series of quality-of-life fixes and improvments to Surface Tension, using maps from BMS Classic Surface Tension as a base (you DO NOT need to subscribe to BMS Classic in addition to this add-on, though).

    FEATURES:
      New Staff Types - Full intergration with Black Mesa Character Expansion in order to add variety to the Black Mesa staff - living, dead, or otherwise. Various corpses in the chapter which lacked in unique appearances or accessories have been fixed.
      New HECU Soldier Scenes - As a touch of environmental storytelling, docile soldiers have been added towards the end of the chapter.

Special thanks to KyuuGryphon for providing some map source files and allowing redistribution of BMS Classic with this mod!

When I find this and other Chapter Overhaul addons in the folders, there's stuff like 'STOverhaul_001', do I have to do something with these or should they work fine without me doing something with them?

Alr I fixed it, idk what addon caused it but unistalling all of my addons and reinstalling em seemed to fix it

do I need to get the bms classic ver to fix this?
Notorious2020 Mar 10 @ 1:51pm 
Yeah, the mod is completely broken, I unistalled and reinstalled multiple times and none of the overhaul features are present.

and also the Manta Ray fight at the cliff side no longer shows up. After uninstalling and reinstalling the mod I found out the chapter overhaul no longer works any idea how I can fix this?

Hey uhh new scenes have been playing in this overhaul like a knockback houndeye spawning in the river below the dam fighting a bullsquid and the tank and it's marine patrols going a different direction, and only noticing you when you approach the gate, is this a new update that won't show on it's recently updated patch or am I just stupid and this was always here but I never encountered it?
