Material Hack

I was wondering where Garry's Mod gets its Half-Life 2 models from (Such as the combine, rebels, ect.) I know it most likely rips it out of HL2 or HL2-DM but I can't quite find the directory the models are based in, so if someone could tell me the directory that would be great. I'm looking on how to make a non-inject wall hack even though it is pointless because there is no VAC, I'm just curious on learning how Material hacks work and seeing if I could make one myself seeing how sv_pure hardly exists in Garry's Mod.

I'm also interested on finding certain map materials and where they feed from, so lets say I download a map from joining a server and it has custom materials, where do those go? I'm looking for just direct directories.

~And if anyone has any Material Hacks/Exploits they've made on Garry's Mod of their own could I please use it or at minimum inspect it?~

Thanks

Yes, I know this but where do I find the models/map materials.

Checked not there.

In most cases, materials and models will be stored in the bsp map archive.
For game textures, they are stored in .vpk files located in .\GarrysMod\sourceengine\ (not sure, never worked with textures)

i'd love to help you but all i see is the autism spectrum
