I'm not sure about how phonemes work in SFM but I know that HL2 style automatic lipsync is still possible and already setup for HLA models. It's the same steps as adding custom lipsync to HL2 with faceposer and then just using that .wav file for Source 2 (you might have to record the game through SFM to be able to use it)

Export phenomene will work on this model for automatic lipsync using audio like in S1FM? In S2FM it seems every model requires manual rigging no so quick workaround like in S1FM HL2 FACS.

It's "enhanced" only because of the hair mesh fix. Mostly, this is meant for having the complete content files so you can edit anything from the materials to the model itself.

The biggest use you'll find out of it is disabling shadows on the hair mesh if it isn't looking good (and if it doesn't completely disable the shadows on the entire model because Source 2 likes to be fun like that.) Also useful for changing the glasses material because it can still occasionally sort transparency incorrectly.

What's the difference between the enhanced gordon model and the original?
THG  [author] Oct 6, 2022 @ 3:16pm 
It does but you won't really notice the difference

Does this affect the game itself? I know we only see these models for a split second but it would still be cool.

Again, I never bothered recreating the content files for Alyx's model because it didn't need any small model edits (it would be difficult for me to fix all of her character face flexes.)
This addon only includes texture and material fixes for her which you should be able to decompile using SourceIO and VRF if you need to do any material edits.
If you really do actually need my source textures or really need Alyx's model recreated then feel free to add me.

any chance you could put the Alyx model in the google drive?

Very cool thanks for that :steamthumbsup:
Also great for making cut-scenes within an addon
Just made a short howto video to make a simple animations/bonemerge using your improved model https://youtu.be/8oVu8nBpCkE
