I've never really seen anyone attempt to put GE models into Source, mostly because of the vertex shading. While it seems like it would be hard to do within that engine, I've actually found a way to bake vertex shading with textures onto a new UV map. It's not entirely accurate, but it works enough that it could be used for a GE:S skin or something.



I had the idea to make GE, and GF64 sweps (basically, custom in game weapons) for Gmod, but that'll take awhile.

Why would you want to?
Source has real-time lighting meaning you can have the gun change shade as you walk up to different light sources. (N64 has this too but its disabled in GE)

Vertex shading in GE was to simulate real lighting without the additional calculations required to use real lighting every frame.

Your either handi-capping a more capable engine OR your will end up with wrong lighting (areas too dark or too light).

Some models in GE use the vertex shading to colour sections of the model, which becomes somewhat of an issue when your export them without it.

I've also ported the Klobb over as a Gmod Swep based off the GE:S ports for Gmod. The sounds, models, and scripts are pretty accurate, I just edited the stats a bit.

I actually did try this long ago, though not with much success in the characters because I suck at rigging for Source, the guns came out well. I also didn't add the smoothing groups to the hands but that was an easy fix.

I wanted to work on this for GE:S to go along my sound mod but my interest went down a bit when I got busy. If you're interested on porting all the guns, I could have them on GE:S in a pack with the sounds and perhaps characters in the future.

Would definitely be cool to get GE guards and other characters as playermodels and NPC's, no one else has publicly done it yet. Would be very cool!

I attempted to port the RC-P90 to GE:S, but my rigging skills for source are crap, so it didn't come out well. I'll try to find the screenshot.

Oh right, I completely forgot about my RC-P90 lol.

The position wasn't very good but it worked.

Honestly from a vintage/ keep it authentic perspective this actually looks really stunning. I had started extracting and porting perfect dark's deep sea rooms into models and creating custom invisible brushwork to simulate clipping and bullet collisions for an exact port of each level from PD and GE. I ran out of free time to do so but was considering getting back into it or sharing my methods with anyone interested in doing it.
