Sledgehammer (all-in-one Riot Shield replacement)

Description
Replaces the unused Riot Shield melee weapon with Lt. Rocky's Sledgehammer.

Includes HUD icon by CCPD, as well as script files to enable the sledgehammer to spawn in all of the following campaigns:

Dead Center
The Passing
Dark Carnival
Hard Rain

No Mercy
Crash Course
Dead Air
The Sacrifice

An alternate .vpk is provided within the mod archive, which enables all melee weapons in all campaigns for those so inclined.

Special thanks to Arilou Lalee'lay, whose Y.A.W.U. mod I essentially Frankensteined to create this - restoring the original skin from Lt. Rocky's release, and making adjustments to the weapon's script file to better fit vanilla conventions.

A video demonstration of the Sledgehammer in action can be found here.[streamable.com]

This mod will only work on official campaigns, and only when playing in Single Player or on a local server.

Have fun!

Can you make a version which only changes it to a sledgehammer? Not map spawning, as it conflicts with any melee spawn mods.

Would it be possible to change the swing trail from red to black?

I can't speak for the quality of the model itself - I don't have the Hammer know-how to fix or fuck up those things in the first place, lol.

oh yeah, and the bloodmap is fucked up

Also, ideally this should have a black swing trail and I feel like a different hit sound would work better but that’s just me

This but for the pipe axe would be legendary
