How to install: At the moment of release GO doesn't support modding directly, so installation can be a bit tricky and you'll need to edit pak01_dir.vpk every time Valve/HPE releases a patch that updates that file. This'll hopefully change at some point after launch. 1) unarchive the models folder into steamapps/common/Counter-Strike Global Offensive/csgo/ 2) BACK UP PAK01\_DIR.VPK IN CASE YOU SCREW SOMETHING UP! 3) open up pak01\_dir.vpk in Notepad++ or some other proper editor (Regular notepad will probably break your pak01\_dir.vpk, so don't use that) 4) Use find & replace to find all instances of v\_rif\_aug and replace those with anything else, say, v\_rif\_au2 for ease. What this does is basically it points the VPK to a file that doesn't exist, and forces it to load loose files - ie. BrainCollector's M16. 5) Go in game and enjoy! How to uninstall: Restore backed-up pak01\_dir.vpk. You can delete models/weapons/v\_rif\_aug, if you so wish. Not necessary, tho.

Only one note for now, w_models MAY not work at all, I had some issues with them, but as you can see from the video/screenshots, they appear to be working (only tested offline)
for his epic tutorial because noone could write one as clear as this!
