Description:
"Mmmm, smells like chicken."

Yet another backlog addon I forgot I made, quite literally as this has been done for almost half a year now.

This alters both the "burned" and "ci_burning" textures to a more gorey and charred apparence. This means that both the L4D1 and L4D2 versions of the textures have been altered, so there’s no need for .vmt changes for the Infected to use one texture over the other.

I just overlayed and tweaked several different charred textures together, I’ll list them here for the sake of convenience:

  • The default burning textures (L4D1 & L4D2). I upscaled and refined the original “burned” texture to 1024x.
  • Valve’s “detail_noise01” overlay.
  • HL2’s “Charple3” without the teeth and limb stump.
  • Postal 2 and 4’s flesh burn texture.
  • J3X’s “Burnification” texture from his FNV mod. [www.nexusmods.com]
