It's a shame that only the HL1 engine supports this directly.

I've seen a recent mod from Facepunch that allows players to fly any of the Source birds.
They're enlarged, like the inflator tool can.

Would it be possible to use Lua to inflate an NPC slightly larger than the player, remove physics, attach (parent?) to the player, then apply textures and color alpha that make them seem to glow?

This is far beyond what I know, but, just an idea.

That might work. Anyone want to code it? :P
