Unused Xen aliens I've never seen

[Loke]

I were looking around in the Opposing Force wiki page yesterday and saw that you could download a small file named Opposing Force Aliens Addon, it basically adds the unused Xen aliens from Half-Life into the Hydrofauna and Biodome levels in Opposing Force. You can download it from Fileplanet (!) here.

While playing I noticed that there were actually a few aliens I've never seen before, I took some screens to show you.

His eyes are similar to the Vortigaunts.

Some of those are odd, especially the big mushroom-similar plant (?).

Of course there are also the other, well known, aliens like Kingpin and Mr. Friendly in there but I bet you all seen them already.
Anyway, if you want to see them yourself just download the file I linked to, open up the Zip-file and put the models into the Gearbox model folder and the maps into the map folder, then launch Opposing Force, open up the console and type in either of these maps, "of3a4", "of4a1" or "of4a2".

The first two is of a Stukabat. Horrid flying thing.
The second thing is a Gasbag. I'd assume they explode.
The third, I can't remember its name. It floats around as a sphere, open up, and shoots you.
The final pictures show a "Charger". The carapace around its head would close up before it, strangely enough, charged headfirst into you.

I love you too, Samon.

Ahh, thanks for the info Laywer.

It was pretty funny to see when a Kingpin charged a Voltigore, ending in a pile of gibs. :E

Where did you get that info?

Lots of research, reading, decompiling the models and looking at the naming of the seperated parts/animations, and just general fart-assery.

Chumtoads were the best.

I believe the first monster was used in HL1 mod Point of View and possibly in Azure Sheep as well. IIRC it is used as throwable weapon in PoV. Otherwise I think it's also an enemy.

ya, the stukabat is in pov

I'd never seen models of some of these things, the charger is pretty cool

I've seen the chumtoad in a area in Blue Shift called *drumroll* "chumtoad's lair".

The Kingpin would've been interesting.
