Aside from tinkering with the game code in the SDK, is there a way to increase the number of gibs when an enemy is killed? I stumbled across a "cl_gibcount" command but the game doesn't recognize it.

cl_gibcount was added to Sven Co-op, it doesn't exist in the vanilla game.

The number of gibs spawned is hardcoded: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/halflife/blob/master/dlls/combat.cpp#L303

The second value passed to SpawnRandomGibs defines how many are spawned.

Sad that it used to be adjustable in the console. Not sure why they removed it in the Steam version.
