This game uses modified geometry and original texture images from this model.
NOVA modifications: restored material links; reoriented and rescaled the model;
welded split vertices and repaired normals; removed shoulder insignia planes;
reshaped arms into the existing gun pose; added normalized skin weights and
NOVA's authored eighteen-bone articulated rig and fourteen animation clips; applied olive and sand
cloth material tints while leaving face, forearms, boots and equipment untinted.
Additional motion changes: one-knee kneeling, intermediate stance poses,
heel/toe roll and swing, low movement, support-hand reload and joint-based recoil.
The original downloaded files are preserved separately in the source repository.
The original creator does not endorse these modifications or this game.

Nine weapon-specific wrist positions/orientations use existing arm bones; source fingers and textures are retained.
