CAR-15 “Blood Diamond” – Black Edition Retexture V1.0

DISCLAIMER: THIS IS A RETEXTURE, THIS IS NOT MY MODEL NOR IT SHOULD IT BE ADDRESSED AS SUCH, ALL CREDIT TO NWI, KATKA, TRIPWIRE & EQUINOX

I’ve been keeping this mod to myself for a few months now, but I decided now was a good time to release it to the public.

I could be alone here, but anyone else wished that Katka’s XM4 on the Steam Workshop was in the game? Just a solid M16A2 Carbine/XM4, not a CAR-15 or M16A2… But both. Well, I did some peeking around myself and realized; Isn’t the Blood Diamond just an M16A2 Carbine spray painted? So I downloaded the Blood Diamond CAR-15 (XM4/A2 Carbine) and looked at it’s texture files. As it turns out, it’s just the M16A2’s textures and the CAR-15’s textures slapped together! So I downloaded Equinox’s M16A2 & Equinox’s CAR-15 as well, and merged some textures along with my Gulf Rifle and got what I’ve always wanted.

I’ve made it available in 2 variants:
– My “Lore-Friendly” variant which is the Blood Diamond, but black and with the Gulf Rifle’s receiver.
– And the “Real Life” variant, which doesn’t have any Vom Feuer markings and is just the base model.

Features:
– Replaces the Carbine Rifle
– High Resolution Textures (Mid-high end PC recommended)
– Lore friendly optional “Vom Feuer” markings
Bugs:
– There might still be some markings on the gun that are not lore-friendly but if there are I doubt they are easy to notice so you should be alright.
(If there are any other bugs, put it in the comments please.)

– Download Equinox407’s CAR-15 “Blood Diamond”
