📋 About This Mod

Couldn't remove the non-head parts from the actual Hospital Snake model (which has the right eye covered) without them glitching up, so I almost gave up on this, until I found a seperate model of the head, the one I used for this mod.

Update 18. 09. 16 - Added Hook Hand option which replaces the default red bionic arm.

Update 11. 08. 17 - Added the hook hand variation with a model kindly provided by ShiguWorks, refitted to look better on most outfits.

Update 17. 12. 23 - Added Zeta version!

Should work on every outfit for Snake that has his head visible.

Special thanks to all these wonderful people for their generous donations for all these years!
