Shambler HD Remake Released!
Its time to upgrade the old shambler with a new model that it always deserved! I always felt that for such a fearsome an imposing beast the vanilla version was a little lacking. So with no further delay I give you the new and improved Shambler HD remake!

It comes with a brand new mesh and animations, plus an additional head gib replacement for consistency.

I hope you like it and take it for a spin! If you take any snazzy screenshots of him in action please post it in this thread.

Cheers!

Correction 
That frame is ... $walk1??????

Obviously if there was a "stand1 then all the question marks would be gratuitous. 
Shambler Vid 
I created a vid of my own map that shows off the shambler. There's 4 shambler fights in this map...

Shalrath With Idle Animation 
Holy Shit That Shambler Looks So Good 
that now all the stock monsters look out of place ;-) 
Weapons And Items Remakes When? 
 
IMO, The Ogre Should Be Top Priority Now 
And after meeting this shambler, the vanilla fiend looks outdated.

The walk cycle on that model is really bad. The idle animation works nicely though, shame. 
This New Shambler Model's 
looking awesome

but his idle(breathing) animation is sorta jello-ish
similar to kingpin's model animation
or is it just me?

anyway it's a HUGE upgrade over the regular shambler 
Blame MDL Sadly. 
Cant be helped. THAT is MDL format limitations. I'm going to try out an MD3 version in darkplaces later. But this is why I would love MD3 support for Fritz and Quakespasm too!.... 
Spy 
Yeah the polygon density has gone up a lot, which makes the jello effect a lot more pronounced unfortunately, as there are just a lot more verts to be wibblin' and a wobblin' all in different directions :(

md3 would be nice. 
Skiffy 
i'm not supposed to sound such harsh, sorry
i love your shambler model, thank you! 
 
I didn't notice any significant wobbling, not more than in the regular models. 
No Worries! 
No worries Spy.
Mankrip indeed it just wobbles as much as the default. About the only fix would be to do a much less subtle idle :P 
The Vore Of Skiffy 
Please, no boobs !

I suggest two small red spikes as puffy tits, and a bloody slut mouth with teeth in place of a vulva, between the front legs ("her" periods are ON).

That way, the Vore would be a very horrible and terrfying Quake monster !

I would like to see a sex scene between that new Vore and the new Shambler. 
Holy Shit 
 
A+ 
 
 
well that didn't take long...

anyway, if the vore is gonna have tits, clearly it should have 3. 
It Wont Have Any...

The torso section minus the exposed guts is what I am aiming for. 
That Would Make A Nice Zombie. 
 
Yes That Is Good Zombie Ref. 
When I get to remaking the zombie this is my quality target hehe. 
 
It would be nice to make a useful Shub-niggurath. 
First Make A Proper Boss Out Of Her.... 
One that does more then just sit on her butt? Because right now its a glorified prop.... If I redo that one then I want to work with a programmer to also turn it into a proper boss fight. Have it multi stage with tentacles coming out of the lava attacking you and even have her detach from the ground and fly around or something. 
Animated Giblets... 
I just realized I can use the frame groups hack to make animated giblets.... twitching limbs and pulsing beating hearts and goop anyone?? :) 
One More Picture 
Here's the Shambler, about to shoot Quake Guy with lightning. Fortunately, he picked up Quad Damage just moments ago. The place is very familiar to Quake players.
