    Lately, I was going to replace the Brenodi Empire GI playermodels with another one. However, something caught my eye. There were several different types of soldier models (e.g. imp_soldier_bohm/ed/sett. Some with 8's placed after them). Now, I was wondering what the difference between all of these were before I went about replacing them. Like, if any of them were animations or some other things.

    They have different faces.
    They're supposed to randomly pick one skin, but I believe it always defaults to bohm

    Thanks. Do you know about the similar skins with 8's placed afterwards? Or are they the same case?

    The _8 prefix means the model is scaled down 8 times, for use in the scaled testing version of empires (it didn't work)

    Ragdolls which are scaled down are glitched.

    Don't use them.

    You've set the models to be CSS models which don' thave the same bone structure.

    Use DoD:S models, they have the same animations.

    It's really easy to get the empires animations over. Like really easy. To any model.

    Someone should make the _8 models player models so ingame your player looks like the image on page 1
