[M16] Cobalt Kinetics EDGE RNG

Description
PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION BEFORE YOU REPORT A MISMATCHED SKIN BUG

Cele's Cobalt Kinetics EDGE Rifle with RNG textures. There's only two skins, as the new skin is pulled from Cele's Insurgency release of the EDGE. This means on map start, the EDGE will either have a greenish/gunmetal grey finish, or a white finish with blue accents. Everything else is the same as Cele's release.

I also took the liberty of repositioning the worldmodel in the survivor's hands. In the original release, the survivors did not hold the weapon by the pistol grip, with the right hand floating slightly behind the grip. A quick rerig and recompile fixed this, and attachments were naturally adjusted to compensate.

You will also notice that the skin you get in your hands is not always the skin that appears in the world. Unfortunately, I can't really fix this: even though I am using the RNG method that would normally guarantee consistency between world and viewmodel skins, the worldmodel and viewmodel use different textures and models altogether. Therefore, no matter what method I use, there is no way to ensure that the viewmodel and worldmodel skins match. One fix I considered was making the worldmodel use the viewmodel model, but unfortunately that model has some glaring issues when viewed outside of its intended angle, with the right side of the gun having significantly less polish and detail compared to the left side. I currently don't have enough knowledge and experience to fix this, so I hope you are willing to overlook this minor inconsistency. I apologize, and I would fix it I had the skills.

@mortis: you know you should do?, do this model from MP5 slot for yourself and see what you think it's gonna fit for you: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=556052775

is there one without the white and blue skin and just the original one?
I wish Cele would have ported THIS particular animation onto an M16, its one of the better ones I've seen.

If by PM you mean player model, it's the Division Hunters by scream.

Not blaming you, just pointing it out.

Blame Cele, they're his animations. I didn't touch the viewmodel in any way, so it's not anything I did.
