📋 About This Mod

Replaces most of the Bot's audio (voices, weapons) with the Combine from Half-Life. More planned to be added. ALSO – Updated for the Python Commandos.

THIS IS AN AUDIO MOD, NOT A MODEL REPLACEMENT

(Although if some one DID make one... That'd be pretty damn cool.)

PREVIEW GENEROUSLY RECORDED AND POSTED BY ThetdmZack

You can find it in the videos section!

Replaces the Automaton faction's sounds with Half-Life 2 & Alyx Combine sounds.

Includes BONUS mods for Doctor Breen being the Jammer tower, and a meme version where he's PISSED at Gordon Freeman for those who want a chuckle.

The War Strider sounds are in a separate file because I made another War Strider mod for a friend, and I wanna give him the option of using that one instead.

(Half-Life 2 Overwatch Soldiers)

- Devastators

(Half-Life Alyx Suppressors)

- Berserkers

(Half-Life 2 Zombine)

(Half-Life Alyx Chargers)

- Scout Striders

(Half-Life 2 Hunter Gun)

- Factory Striders

(Half-Life 2 Strider)

- War Striders

(Half-Life Alyx Strider)

(You'll never guess... Half-Life 2 Dropship.)

(Half-Life 2... Wait for it... GUNSHIP.)

- Detector Towers

(Half-Life 2 City Overwatch)

- Jammer Towers

(Doctor Breen, Rest in Peace)

(Half-Life 2 Hopper Mines)

- Mortar Emplacements

(Half-Life 2 Combine Roof Mortar)

And most of their weaponry has been replaced with HL2 and Alyx stuff.

TO DO LIST:

- Footstep Noises? (Very low priority)

FAQ

Why?

I really like Half-Life, and my friends like Half-Life — so I made this mod (and a few more) for our enjoyment. All of my mods are personal ones I decided to share.

Will this overwrite/conflict with other Automaton sound mods?

Sadly yes. It changes a lot of things, so you might have to pick one or the other.

Why did you replace the rocket sounds with the energy balls?

It's more distinctive for knowing certain explosions are 'rocket' fire.

In HL2, Combine's troops don't field RPG's, it's a presumably rebel weapon (even though they probably manufacture it.)

So what do the soldiers use in HL2? The AR2's alternate fire. So I replaced them.

The biggest reason was it sounded way cooler (to me and my buds at least).

I will NOT be providing a version with the HL2 RPG noises instead, sorry! :/

The OG HL2 explosions are still present for grenades.

Why not Chargers for Devastators? Why are they Hulks?

Most of the BS you'll deal with from them are the dudes with the MG's, and of course – the dreaded ROCKET variant.

So they'll be the ones that keep your head down the most out of
