Serious Sam Kamikazes (Common Infected)

A wise man once told me, and I believe it went something like this:

“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA”

These were the words he uttered to me shortly before he expired via self-detonated explosion. The wise man is no longer with us, but he'll forever be in my heart, and all over the walls and ceilings. Artistic stuff.

After a little more than a month, I've finally completed this. With Serious Sam brought into the world of the Dead 4 Gtfo, his long-standing arch-nemisii have followed suite full-throttle, tagging in for the common infected as the worldly bystander pummeler. Unfortunately in their transition from the shiny, high-contrast world of the Serious Engine, to the old school, phong-addled, where-in-the-flying-F*CK-is-Half-Life world of the Source Engine, the Kamikazes had a slight malfunction in the explosive nature of their main method of attack. So rather than charging in screaming at the top of their lungs to ultimately blast off into a spectacular show of combustion and dust, they instead charge in screaming at the top of their lungs to club you over the head repeatively with dudley explosive devices. They try to stay true to form at least.

The Kamikazes from Serious Sam HD: The First Encounter stand in for the regular ol' common infected, while the slick, high-def Kamikazes from Serious Sam 3 make occasional appearances as the uncommon infected. The old school Serious Sam Classic Kamikaze fills in for the Left 4 Dead 1 common infected seen throughout the L4d1-ported campaigns. They all come included with, in addition to others, that one iconic sound we all know and love these lovable psychos for.

So strap in, grab your favourite minigun (like this one!) and be the hero, that'll come and save us all.

AS WE CAAAALL,
THE WORLDS WE LEFT BELLOOOOW,
WE ALL DREAM OF,
THE DAY WE RISE ABOOOOOOOOOOOOVE

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR!!
(I love saying that.)

Known bugs:
-The gibbing is not perfect. On occasion the cutout gibs will not align with the cutout on the Kamikaze's mesh, leaving an empty, transparent gap.
-Tiny pieces of their limbs will remain when they were meant to be removed.
-When gibbed, the kamikazes will experience a slight discoloration. The Infected shader is complicated and not easy to work with. Still reseraching it..
-The models for the bloodied hazmat faceplate and riotgear faceplate have not been replaced as of now. I have not found the models for them yet.
