Retexture of the Fireworks Box

Made for a friend.

INSTALLATION

  1. Unzip the folder C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\left 4 dead 2\left4dead2\materials\models\props_junk ( please create directories as they will not exist)

  2. MAKE A BACKUP of C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\left 4 dead 2\left4dead2\pak01_dir.vpk

  3. Open pak01_dir.vpk with a text editor ( back up this file incase you mess up ), I used Notepad ++

  4. There is one edit to make for the skin.

Simply change "explosivebox001.vtf" to "axplosivebox001.vtf"

If you make more changes than that the game may not run so keep differences to a minimum.

  1. That's it, now instead of loading the original textures packed in the game's files, the game will load the ones you copied in the materials folder.

    Replaces the fireworks crate at the Dark Carnival Finale or if any future custom maps involve the crate it will work then too of course.

    Ah noticed now the tags lol. You should write it somewhere else anyway xD
