So after long development of In Lucy's Eyes and releasing it, the Red Line Games team are moving on to Unreal Engine 4, which means that we won't work with HPL2 anymore. Even though you can use our monsters by downloading our mod, I decided to contribute to the forum, as a last thing, by sharing all of my monster that were used in ILE, aswell as a new one that I made during this weekend for tutorial purposes. As a pack.
This pack includes 4 completely new high quality animated monsters in which I have put in about 80 hours of hard work. Feel free to use them in your projects
as long as you give me (or Red Line Games) a proper credit.
Let me introduce the monsters:
Monster Chubby - Bigger than any of the other three monsters, this guy uses his giant knife arms to slice his victims. This monster has 6 animations - Idle, Walk, Run, Attack, Run Attack and Notice. All you need for a monster that can chase and kill the player. Grunt sounds applied.
Misc Feature: Animated Tentacle
Monster Skinny - After losing his eyes his vision has been greatly reduced making him being better at using his hearing senses to track down his victims. This monster is fully animated with 13 animations, the same amount as the grunt or the brute. Custom sounds applied.
Misc Feature: Animated Chain
Monster Buffy - Another big monster, and he has lost his arm. He's fast, and he's dangerous. Fully animated, just like the grunt and the brute. Custom sounds applied.
Misc Feature: Animated Chain And Jaw
Monster Ghost - A creepy monster pefectly suited for tensing the player and creeping him out. Only has 2 animations as it was used for cinematic purposes - Idle and Walk. However you can use the maya files that I'll include and make more animations for this monster yourself. No sounds applied.
Misc Feature: Animated Hair
Remember, if you want to change the stats or sounds of these monsters you can do so by editing the .ent file

But I want to know how I can make my own monster??!!
Well you're in luck! As I made the chubby monster during this weekned I recorded all the footage of the process. I'm working on 5 hour long tutorial serie/course where I'll be showing and explaining how to make a fully working monster for HPL2.
I'll be covering everything from
designing your monster,
sculpting,
polypaiting,
making a game model, to UV unwrapping, making your
texture maps,
rigging,
animating,
exporting, and
setting your monster up in HPL2.
This course will be aimed mostly towards beginners and for those who are a bit more expierenced but don't quite know how to approach the pipeline of a character, or a monster production, specifically for HPL2, or other game engine. Of course, how good your own monster will turn out will depend alot on your anatomy, sculpting, and modeling skills. I'm just going to show my personal workflow and hopefully I'll be able to teach something.
Basic knowledge of Photoshop, Zbrush (or any other sculpting program), Blender and Maya will be required.

Happy modding!
