📄 Description

Three field notes from one project: porting Half-Life 1 and Left 4 Dead content into a Minecraft Fabric mod (Java 1.21.1), all tested in the running game.

New notes

techniques/reading-source-engine-models-and-animations: reading Source MDL v44-49 with VVD/VTX/VTF in plain Python, a numeric bind/skinning self-check, .ani animation blocks, the two animation storage styles (bone-by-frame and frame-by-bone), and layer, delta and empty-stub clips. Nothing on Source animations existed in the knowledge base before.
games/left-4-dead/left-4-dead-infected-and-tank-in-minecraft: the common infected (19 looks via shared animations) and the Tank as animated Minecraft mobs.
games/half-life/half-life-1-weapons-and-monsters-in-minecraft: the GoldSrc model converter (external sequence groups, texture companion files, aim blends) and eight weapons plus seven monsters.

Checks

um kb check passes on all three; um kb index regenerated (additions only: three entries and counts).
No game files, extracted assets or code dumps; no local paths or personal details. Generated resource packs are described as private build outputs and are not included.
Single-player only, with the original games never launched or modified.
