Left 4 Dead 1/2 Tanks Nextbots [Beta]
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Did you like the add-on? Show support by giving it a thumbs up!
This addon adds the Tanks from Left 4 Dead 1/2 with behavior that closely mimics their original counterparts. Based on the original work by Jennifer / Jamie, all core code credit belongs to her. This version features huge bug fixes, performance tweaks, and has been separated into its own standalone addon.
• It includes multiple versions (L4D1, L4D2, The Sacrifice DLC variant, and Versus Mode variants with 6000 HP instead of 4000).
• They can climb props of various sizes.
• They can throw rocks and deliver powerful punches that launch you backwards.
• The screen will shake if they get too close to you.
• They can use taunts just like the campaign variants from L4D; Versus variants will not taunt.
• Dynamic original Tank music is included.
• If they get stuck, just like in the original games, they will instantly die.
• Uses original animations, sounds, models, and materials.
• Faithfully recreated AI behavior and logic, closely resembling the original Left 4 Dead tank.
• Partial compatibility with other NPCs/NextBots.
• Knockback behavior when taking DMG_BLAST damage.
• They can break doors.
• Different attack animations depending on the enemy size (incapacitated attack animations)
• They are very vulnerable to fire.
• Rarely, there may be minor animation transitions error (such as walking while taunting), but this happens infrequently.
• If you’re experiencing a crash or Lua error, please post the full error message in the bug report discussion thread. If it’s a crash, describe the steps required to reproduce it so I can look into it.
• There are a couple of reasons: First, porting all the models, animations, materials, and sounds would take a very long time due to the number of animations involved. Second and more importantly, distributing Valve assets through Workshop addons is against the Steam Workshop Terms of Service. You must own and mount Left 4 Dead 2 in Garry’s Mod to use this addon.
Opinions are very important to me, if you have any positive or negative reviews I would love to read them, remember to be polite above all.
Enjoy.
