Corrected Common Infected

Description
Even being in a war doesn't prepare you for this. They never stop, they come at ya and come at ya and they never ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ stop!

Since the TLS update, the L4D1 CI have been added into the game with new textures, new models, and the gore system. However, with the limitations of L4D2's shader system, the variety of the Common Infected is small and will often see the same face. This applies to the head variety, as well, having 2 to 3 heads per model.
This mod aims to not only improve the Common Infected variety but also improves the quality of textures introduded in the update, and then some!

Changes:
- No need for wound vmts, this was done by adding "$wound" and "$burning" in the "common_infected_shared" vmt.
- Lots of face variety between Common Infected
- New model and texture additions.
- Redone beta textures to have the retail look.

Note:
- (Kind of) Reskin compatiable
- This may or may not work online

If there are any bugs or issues that you may have, please let me know in the comments.

Special thanks to Sergi338 for discovering the gore method or else this mod wouldn't be possible.

@Pengu im over a month late, but i made a quick vscript to precache all the L4D1 commons and i saw no improvements with the initial lag spike. the lag spike is also more pronounced when using this mod, but less so with the retail addon to this

"reverted old suit head recreation"?

Is there a chance that there will be a lfd2 version?
Great 3 May @ 6:34am 
Will there be a time you can possibly match the suit colors?

Yeah, it's possible.

Get rid of the blood, pale skin, etc and make them look like normal people

Over a decade ago I was dumb and wanting to make an open world game in the source engine and part of it was taking L4D2 infected and cleaning them up to use as regular pedestrians. Nothing ever came of it and I never got around to trying that out, but I'm curious if it wouldve been possible to begin with

What do you mean by that?

I know this is an infuriatingly stupid question, but how hard would it be to "fix" the textures for the infected to make them look like regular people? Or would it be easier just to remake it from scratch?

@Pingu @Lemmestrokeyoshit25 Guys, you should also contact the support system with this, because they answer me according to the same template, "These are problems with your PC", "Unsubscribe from mods to fix the problem". Maybe if there are more requests, they will start to solve something. Because my arguments that everything is fine on L4D2 maps with the same number of mods do not satisfy them.
