FAQ. If you’re having questions, read and you can say them here more⬇️
IMPORTANT NOTE: THIS ADDON NOW DEPRECATED AND OUT-OF-DATE! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK! Planning in not so far future rework from scratch this addon. Models will remain, just adding same adapted weapons, tweaked codebase and new sounds. Also this addon will be divided into shared content (not so necessary, because it’s are lot by other), PMs and SNPCs (subdivided into for VJBase and ZBase).

I read all the comments, reviews and look at the statistics, and I made conclusions. I try to be responsive, responsible and fair. I opened here FAQ.

Q: Textures are missing.
A: INSTALL WITH DEPENDENCIES CORRECTLY PLEASE!

Q: When I spawning some NPCs, oftentimes appears error “lua/derma/derma_gwen…”?
A: Just ignore it, this error not critical enough. But if it frazzles out you, can hide this messages, which also spams console.

Q: Why weapon holding animations so junky and inaccurate?
A: This is not my problem. Because exactly in all BMS weapons, attachment bones in slightly different place. I’ll recreate specific ones for females, which will show properly, but they don’t usable for players. They’ll just been recoded for SNPCs.

Q: Can you port them all to Black Mesa: Source?
A: If there were unique sounds, I’ll have ported them immediately. But as you can see, sounds are lacking. Although, if voice availability doesn’t matter, other devs can ask me for implementation this models in their mods, such as in BMCE:R HECU:RE. They will be permitted to use it, of course with credit.

Q: The exposed belly in HECU RR variant is distracting and arrogant.
A: I’m know and understanding your complaints. This is meant to be a well-known “fantasy” outfit. But I’m also acknowledging, it’s somehow strange. Although, I’ve tweak – those SNPC’s will appear randomly both with closed (modest, 90%) and exposed (fantasy, 10%) bellies (midriffs). And in PM’s you can select these two. The right to choose is given, so I will not delete anything. As I like state: because everyone has their own taste. In future update they’ll been deleted due to hardship and I changed my mind about it.

Q: What the hell women takes too many equipment and packs?
A: Takes place as an opinion, but: even in real life woman can take 20lbs (~10kg), even more! And lets all be honest, in this fictional universe, can be happen anything. Also I’m not talking about the fact that according to the official canon and lore there were no female Marines in HL.

Q: Can you make in ZBase?
A: Not now, and probably especially not in these weeks; because there are other things that need to be done (most likely after that when I’ll made all possibly types of females).

Q: More (SNPC) addons?
A: Despite it also needs some time, yes, I also have more ideas in my mind. Describe one of them here, join.


Q: You’ll abandon or no longer maintain your projects at some day?
A: Depends. This addon - yes, now considered as a legacy and out of date. But this's stored for archival purposes. And at future will be uploaded new version, with all new things but with just ragdolls, I won't code NPC parts (though if you can, I'll appreciate your work).

Hopefully, I given many arguments as I can.
At final, nothing is absolutely and purely better in the world. But together we can do better and cooler when you give your feedback, questions, advice, suggestions and even complaints (ya, they also help more improving). You’re welcome, place it! :bms_crowbar:

@Milky Way, Tbh, idea become for me when I thought: 1. About Adrian Shephard in female version, which could be named “Adrianna Shephard”). 2. And why are female scientists and even female guards exists, but female marines doesn’t) And then goes… why not to do it. Yes, at first it’s been hard, even slightly helped my skill in 3D. But when I surfed in Valve Developer Community and saw some guides on YT, how and what do, it’s been easier. So yes, I spent ~3-4 months to embody it.
