Zombie Variant Troubleshooting
Across 3 computers now, rather than texture errors or the models simply showing up with the regular headcrab, when I use Braindead's classic headcrab with BMCE on, the variant zombies show up as scientist zombies with no headcrab on top. Even with a compatibility mod updated as recently as last August, this has been the case: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2725083844

Is this normal? Other people I've heard complain about the zombies have talked of simple texture issues. I don't know if the update on New Year's Eve could've made the compatibility mod outdated, (the 'posssibly outdated' was quite literally added today after I made inquiries with the mod author) but the changelog didn't make it sound like the zombies were touched. I just want to be able to enjoy BMCE to the fullest without giving up on the classic headcrab--the hl2 one is just too ubiquitous to feel at home in BM to me. Is there anything I could do to try and update the mod myself or identify where the conflict is happening? Could it be a load order issue?

What are your thoughts?
