Description

This was a HUGE pain to make look good, I think it turned out alright in the end.

This replaces the texture for the M79 Grenade Launcher with a darker, more grimey appearance with a dark oak wood stock, courtesy of the L4D1 Shotgun’s wood, and utilizing the original PSDs for both textures. I've also added normals (& exponents now that I relearned how to make them), and edited the .vmts to make it shine a bit more. In addition to this, I’ve retextured the worldmodel for the 40mm shell to match the viewmodel (even though you’d basically never see it unless you have a keen eye), and I patched up the weird carvings on the sight portion of the texture, so it shouldn’t look too weird when using an unfolded model.

I got inspired to remake this addon due to it using the in-game, compressed version of the wood body, this version instead utilizes the original PSDs for a higher-quality finish, so credits to him for the idea. Also the original addon got deleted, so I linked a reupload instead.

Please do NOT redistribute or modify this addon for your own purposes without explicit permission onto the Workshop, GameMaps or any other third-party website.

@Cmdr. Ryko Green ♕
...you do know there are more proper places to self-promote lmao
I can think of like, 2, Dead4Mods and Left 4 Nation on discord.
Not trying to promote those two, but if you look into the modding scene, there are better places to showcases your addons man.
It is a cool addon tho, but still, this is an odd place to promote your work.

Hope this is ok, but I just made my first mod and have no idea how to get it out there.
It took me 3 weeks, it's a full Bill voice-over.
Please enjoy!!!

The single best retexture for the vanilla Grenade Launcher, no contest. I will watch your modding career with great interest. Thanks for this work art!
