📋 About This Mod
- Description -
A complete remodel and retexture of the 12. 7 SMG and the GRA version within the game.
Breathing life into a fairly underrated weapon. Updating it to modern graphical standards.
The amazing asset was created by Victor Tomioka, I tried to stay as close to his vision as possible.
- Installation -
Just install it with your Mod Manager of choice , then activate the ESP. The (optional)
4k uncompressed textures can be use to override the base mod (you would still need to install the base mod).
- Compatibility -
This mod will conflict with any other mod that changes the 12. 7 SMG (both the regular and GRA version) records, and its weapon mods. You move this mod's plugin below any thing that modify the weapon record and that should work.
