📋 About This Mod

I quite like Improved Heavy Weapon Textures, however I'm not a fan of the minigun having a more brown hue compared to its original counterpart.

This is a simple retexture of IHWT's minigun to be black/gray.

Requires the original IHWT.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you have the original Improved Heavy Weapon Textures installed first, or this retexture won't work.

  • Check the mod's file tab for any optional versions or compatibility notes before installing.
