Meaning... You have a map and need a new model... Or you have a new model but need to learn to apply it? Or... What?

Well, assuming you have some artistic talent (this counts me right out) your best bet might be Milkshape 3D. It needs to be purchased, but it's relatively cheap as far as modeling programs go, not as steep of a learning curve as Blender if I remember correctly, and basically designed with Half-Life (Well, Goldsource and the old Quake 2 engine) in mind.

Alternatively and much more economically, you could use one of the zombie models already present in MS:C and possibly just reskin them to your needs, in which case you'll want to find HL Model Viewer on the same site, which if I remember correctly lets you export a model's skin as a file, where you can edit it to your heart's content and then reimport the freshly edited skin to use on the model.

It's easier just to edit the script to use the new model. If you provide said model, it can be arranged.

You can make your own scripts nao:
viewtopic.php?f=8&t=5930

Or you can just have us do it for you. For the model to function proper in MSC, it'll likely need some editing anyways (we've an odd event system).

If you already altered the model for use with a specific script, tell me which script, and I'll get you the sauce of said to alter - or again, we can do it for ya right quick.

We do not do spoilers here due to the forum rules. You'll have to ask someone in game.
