Important Installation Notes

I’m never particularly happy when mods come with exe files unless they absolutely have to. This one installed perfectly but it also added a readme.txt file in the maps folder that contains the following:

“IMPORTANT NOTE:

For this mod to work correctly, altered model files for the NPC Dog must be included in the following directory:
C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\\half-life 2 episode one\episodic\models

Be advised that THIS WILL AFFECT THE DOG MODEL IN ALL OF HALF LIFE 2 EPISODE ONE, so please remember to remove these files before playing any other level or mod. A list of the altered Dog files are as follows:”

  • dog.dx80.vtx
  • dog.dx90.vtx
  • dog.mdl
  • dog.phy
  • dog.sw.vtx
  • dog.vvd
  • dog.xbox.vtx
  • dog_animations.ani
  • dog_animations.mdl
  • dog_gestures.ani
  • dog_gestures.mdl
  • dog_postures.ani
  • dog_postures.mdl

I believe that the player should be advised BEFORE any installation begins. How often do people read the readme.txt file?
It should also be noted the there is an automatic uninstaller, which is nice.
