Way to remove grunt gas masks through character_manifest.txt?

Black Mesa Archive Help!
#1

Is there a code for the character_manifest.txt to have H.E.C.U grunts to spawn without gas masks attached to their helmets?

#2

There is a mod on the workshop which uses modified/unused character_manifest stuff to add that sort of things.

#3

I have that mod, but the chances of a grunt spawning like that is actually pretty low. I’d say probably 1 out of every 10 spawns with just a helmet. I went through the file and I’m not sure which code changes that.

#4

The only thing I see that seems possibly related to it in the “npc_human_grunt” codes is “head” under “bodygroup_data”

#5

Though I’m still not sure about that considering that there are parts pertaining to the helmet under the “npc_human_medic” section (helmet_medic). I don’t see anything else like that for grunts.

#6

Well if you find anything that you think might help I’ll check back in later today. Thanks
