Early 2000's HECU

Description
Oh look, another HECU model, I don't remember anybody asking for yet another one, but here we are!

So yeah, here's my own take on the HECU.

Please read the Q&A before asking questions!

NOTE: Though it is not required, I'd suggest Firebrand - Mercs & Militia for its hair models which can be bonemerged onto these models.

Content
  • HECU Marine (earlyhecu)
  • HECU Marine equipment (earlyhecu_gear)
Added with The Kitbash Update
  • HECU Marine clothes (earlyhecu_clothes)
  • HECU Marine head + hands (earlyhecu_head)
NOTE: The equipment must be bonemerged onto the ragdoll, you will need the Easy Bonemerge Tool for this.

Q&A
Q: Is this a playermodel/NPC?
A: No, just a model meant for posing.

Q: Why is the gear a separate model?
A: The gear was made into a separate model due to bodygroup limits, there was no solution other than either separating the models or reducing the bodygroup count.

Q: What is the purpose of the "MOPP" versions of the helmet and helmet gear?
A: They're adjusted for the MOPP hood, the only difference is that they're raised a little bit to reduce clipping with the gas mask.

Q: What is the purpose of the models added in The Kitbash Update?
A: They're intended to be used for, as the name implies, kitbashing, they have no purpose when used with the base model but they can be merged onto other models, like Kuge's PMCs.

Q: Will you make it a playermodel/NPC?
A: No.

Q: Why won't you make it a playermodel/NPC?
A: Read the answer to question #2, you'd either get Marines with no gear or Marines with much stricter customization.

@sk8BOaredERRR 2015 Uhh.. yeah, that's why the mod is called what it is and why I place the Black Mesa Incident at that time.

K but that's still early 2000s
The Bullsquid Enthusiast  [author] May 4 @ 9:13pm 
@sk8BOaredERRR 2015 Either late 2003 or early 2004. I've not really set an exact date since I've not yet ever needed one. Though in one of the pictures I set it as December 2003.

so when in ur head cannon does the black mesa incident occure?
The Bullsquid Enthusiast  [author] May 4 @ 12:28pm 
@sk8BOaredERRR 2015 Depends on your interpretation. My own headcanon places it in the early 2000's, hence the addon name and in-universe timestamps.

(black mesa event 2000-05) shouldnt this be 90s or 80s
