Weapon Texture Reworks
This pack touches up a bunch of weapon textures to look better, in my opinion. I look for things like baked-on shading, exaggerated hues, or texture inconsistencies and iron them out. There might be updates in the future.
If you want to remove parts of the mod that you don't like, do not touch the "assets" folder unless you know what you're doing. This folder has .gsma textures in it that I needed to add because the base game doesn't have them. Deleting from "units" should be fine as in contains the bulk of the reworks and also the instructions that tell the game to use the .gsma textures in the first place (which is why deleting parts of "assets" and not "units" will make the game hang or crash).

They've been darkened and made more discreet so they don't clash as much with the weapon. The gadget rail has also been desaturated.
Notes:
Spoiler!
- You need BeardLib for this mod to work properly. Some textures use the .gsma format, which require a new texture to be added to the game on top of the usual ones.- This mod is meant to replace Subtle Weapon Improvements, but if you'd still like to use it, it is right here.
