I can't believe you shot the pilot!
He was a ZOMBIE, Francis!

Updates the No Mercy / Dark Carnival Pilot texture.

So the Pilot and his corpse have x512 textures. The Pilot's textures look really grungy, noisy and compressed, like really bad.
Looking around it turns out the corpse, although also x512, was much cleaner and sharper, as if it was redone from scratch.
I then found a folder containing the original x2048 corpse texture, before it was compressed down to match the x512 size of the living Pilot and got busy making him human again.

Oh and the Corpse's clothing was desaturated by 30%. I undid that so it matched the color of the vanilla living pilot.

Features

- Original unused x2048 corpse texture by Valve, replacing dark noisy vanilla x512 textures
- Addition of bite / bullet wounds and white eyes to the corpse by me
- Modified corpse texture with fixed skin tone and body / face cleaned of blood (that was a doozy to do...)
- Bite wound on living Pilot's hand

Credits

- Valve / Turtlerock Studios: Model and original textures
- Myself: Cleaning and editing the unused 2k zombified textures up for living pilot

Also for the people who are all "remove the bite mark the survivors infected him cause they are carriers"

That seems to be a continuity error on Valves part,as the Sacrifice comic came out later, but the chopper pilot has some lines of dialogue that makes it very clear he was bitten.

@TheLazilyInspiredOne They work together just fine in my experience, no conflicts or anything.

I would believe the mod you've posted would override mine instead. Mine replaces only the pilot's original texture. Their mod replaces the pilot's physical model, and then has its own textures applied to that. Mine would not be visible, most likely. Except the corpse, that would probably still be mine.
