Modern Style Military Crates

Description
This mod aims for a more modernized style to replace the WW2 era K-ration and howitzer ammunition crates reused from Day of Defeat: Source. Although the US Army doesn't use wooden crates of these type anymore, I've done my best to make them look modern whilst staying consistent to L4D2's fictional world.

The most common, the ration crate, has been retextured to resemble a modern ration supply crate, although these come in individual cardboard boxes in reality. The lesser common ones are a fragmentation grenade crate based off antique grenade crates of similar type, and a rifle crate which references the Desert Rifle (aka Combat Rifle) in L4D2 lore being shipped home from the Middle East to hastily arm troops combating the Infected.

This doesn't conflict with military crate 4k from gray or whoever it was right?

THANK YOU, NO MORE WW2 CRATE

I'm pretty sure the rifle crate would say 5.56MM instead of 5.56.

@GIANTHURTBALLJR Honestly I have no idea, I tend to just impulsively start projects occasionally and sometimes I actually finish one. I actually made this several years ago but only recently uploaded it. I did want to make a Sacrifice style military zombie for the Riot Infected (their armor is similarly ribbed) but I would likely have to learn how the zombie skin system works, it is much more complex than simple object textures.

What other modern retextures do you plan for L4D2?

Idk if that works like that?

@言夜 I'm not quite sure what you mean. You want that crate to replace the rations crate? I cannot do that because it is not my model, and because I do not have modelling skills; only retexture.

@The blue shell I can do that if I figure out how the Gmod workshop works. I may look into it later. It should also be possible to just copy the from your L4D2 addons folder over to your Gmod addons folder.

Would love to see these in gmod.
