Apple Grenade Model for CS 1.6: Detailed v_ p_ w_ Files with Inspection Animations

Apple Grenade Model Overview for Counter-Strike 1.6

This custom apple grenade model swaps out the default HE grenade in CS 1.6 for a fruit-themed design packed with detail. The textures are precise and mimic a real apple's skin, with subtle shading that improves visibility in dim areas such as the de_dust2 tunnels or the shadows of cs_office. Made to work with Build 4554, it integrates smoothly without FPS drops, keeping high-fps performance even on older machines.

All the necessary model files come in the package: v_ for the first-person viewmodel with fluid throw animations, p_ for the player-held props during inspections, and w_ for the world drops after detonation. The polycount is kept optimized under 500 tris to prevent lag on multiplayer servers. Inspection animations bring a unique touch-pull the pin on your apple grenade and see it spin smoothly, showing off glossy highlights on the stem and leaf details.

• HD Textures: 512x512 resolution apple skin with bump mapping for depth, keeping clear outlines against dark backgrounds. No blurry edges during fast throws.
• Custom Sounds: Comes with apple-specific bounce and explosion SFX, replacing default grenade noises for immersive audio cues without changing core game balance.
• Hitbox Alignment: Matched perfectly to standard grenade hitboxes, so there are no problems with damage radius or bot pathing. Tested for ESL-style competitive play.

Installation is simple: extract to your cstrike/models folder, add a basic alias in your config.cfg like "alias +applegren "weapon_hegrenade", and you're done. Works with both Steam and Non-Steam versions, including MasterServer protected servers. No .wad file conflicts-it uses clean sprite replacements for the throw trajectory.
