📋 About This Mod
Replaces Vanilla meshes (contain_crate_01/ 02 ) with a more detailed model. Detail mapping and vertex shading have been added also. Meshes use vanilla textures.
If you like these then please let me know and I'll replace the barrels to with similarly updated meshes.
Thanks.

💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it uses vanilla textures, it's safe to use with texture overhaul mods—just load this after them.
- If you're on PC, you can manually drop the files into your Data folder, but using a mod manager like Vortex or NMM is simpler.
- Check if you have any other mods that modify the same crate meshes to avoid conflicts.
