Nice find :)
sometimes I get stuck opsessing on something that none will ever see.
Like with Faceplanted Fredrik, I thougt it was silly that the spear would simply emerge outoff is back.
So I spend time making holes in the armor, then I found out that when looking at it ingame from a wierd angle you could see the floor through the hole in the armor (backside of the faces doesn't render ingame), that made my nuts so I went back and modeled ribcage beneath the armor :P

I like the quality and ingenuity, but I personally find them a bit too gruesome whereas the original game is pretty clean and tame which, for me, is preferred :)

Believe it or not, thats something I thought about, and I even tried looking up the rating of LoG and didn't find it (reviews and such list it as N/A)
Hence the humor regarding the names and how the pack was presented.
When we have modding tools like these and soon animations also, it opens up a frightning possibility that something obscene will find its way into the modding community, I think I know where the line is,but people have different threshold for the macabre.
Thats why I think how you present something matters, when you read "Skeletons Impaled pack", you know what it is, and if you should stay clear or not.
People should not release something called "Farm and Farmning Tools pack" and have one asset thats a burning body in a shallow grave with a fork.

As for myself, I like Horror, I even have a dream of recreating Elvira Mistress of the Dark from the Amiga someday, and I started that with a group of guys using Valves source engine some years ago, but we where shutdown because its not abandonware (we thought so !!) (got a fancy email from lawyers and all :) )

In retrospect, there is one thing that I should have done, but didn't. And thats to have the images in a spoiler tag (and I will from now on if its something in this catagory, people have kids (I have kids) that can be looking over your shoulder when you are browsing the forums)

Good talk, this stuff matters.

Great assets Skuggasveinn, as always.
My activity here decreased recently (life happens ;-) but I hope it's temporary), but I sneak in every now and then and I'm always amazed how many new cool stuff popped up.
I somewhat share Komag's concerns (at least partially), and that's probably why Charly and Harry are my types (like if death from starvation was less macabre then impalement).
