Half-Life 2: Amalgam Zenith hopes to be many things. The main goal is the complete replacement of the entire HL2 asset library with newer, higher quality overhauls or alternatives. To ensure we are making the best experience one can reasonably obtain, we've been rounding up some of the best HL2 mod makers from around the world and utilizing parts of their popular pre-existing standalone mods where we can. In doing so, we are removing the need for players to manually install tens and even sometimes hundreds of mods themselves to get a more modern HD look. This has the added bonus of removing the headache of troubleshooting personal mod packs and going more in depth than any one player ever could.
A new arm texture is being worked on using the best parts of 3 different texture mods. Current version includes lighter black parts to look closer to the regular hands as well as a flashlight effect that can believably look on or off due to its dimness. Used texture parts are the Mark V orange section, a blend of the Mark V and the themanclaw arm texture is used for the dark sections of the arms, and the HEV Redux gloves and parts of its flashlight are used. We have plans to make dirtier versions for the episodes.
