[Characters] Soldiers of Killing Floor - Replacement Pack

[Half-Dead]

The backstory of killing floor is that you and your ragtag military squad are protecting the citizens and wiping out zeds...So shouldn't they be military? Not civilians, steampunks, TF2 characters and a chicken? Well i made this replacement too match up with the backstory a bit more. All of the characters will be replaced by unique soldiers.

The dude on the last photo looks like Malashenko from World in Conflict soooooo bad!!! O.O

[halbridious]

Not a bad idea. I happen to love the KF skins, but this is cool. different uni's would be nice -aren't there like, 4 stock soldiers? the guy with the beret at least, using his body as another base point would be nice.

[Half-Dead]

I'm planning on adding different gear and head wear in the future

[halbridious]

what would be REALLY, REAAAALLLY epic, is if you found a way to mix and match via user input - aka, we could pick "i want X hat, X face, X uni"
twould be epic, no?

[mooarchanox]

nice characters! just a little change in their gears (equipments, camo) would be epic!

[Gregs2k2]

That's some great work. Will deffo use.

But only works for you.

Other than that bit harmless fun. Did you look at the thread I linked you in your previous thread? About implementing custom characters?

[Half-Dead]

Updated the heads to use Red Orchestra 2 heads to give it that Tripwire feel and added a beret

Also yes i did look at that i may make some standalone players in the future

[FluX]

I must admit, theheads look so fake in the first picture and then I look at the second and they look really good. I love how you kept the TWI feel mate so now it does also feel like we have an "army" team on a mission instead of mainly random survivors.

[Half-Dead]

Yeah i'm going to get more ingame pics because they look awful in the menu

EDIT:
There got a new pic up with more ingame pictures.

Nice job! These guys will be replacing the steampunk peeps on my server for good!

Also, could you make a version of the soldier body but with Briar's head placed in? It'd do just right, I think, with a suitable color scheme.

It only replaces chars for the client, not the server, adding this to a server will achieve nothing unless Half-Dead makes them a unique char instead of a replacement.

Of course, if you are fed up of seeing a commando chicken and steam punks you can replace just those on your machine and you'll never see them again. (sorta)

[thefirewarriors]

Yes, that's what I thought so instead of just replacing all the .upls, I renamed them,edited their innards and put them up as custom characters using Serverperks.

Also, I had a bit of fun with their textures.



Good ol' nostalgia. Mmmm...

Skin was made for personal use. Thanks again, Half-Dead for the bi*ching models!

[Half-Dead]

Nice skin. I love how well the rolled up sleeves turned out.

[thefirewarriors]

Thanks ye very much. Still needs a lot of polish though, especially on the arms. I just made this for my mates during our game a little while ago so it's pretty quick and dirty.

[Half-Dead]

Added V3. HQ body textures by yours truly and new heads (The old ones looked kinda fake.)

[halbridious]

OOh, i like the changes. faces look much nicer

[thefirewarriors]

Very nice pack, though the faces still look kind of out of place in KF. What if you used the heads from the other KF characters like Clive Jenkins, Kerry Fitzpatrick, Harold Hunt, etc?

Anyway, woolen caps are awesome. I feel so warry with them.
