Description

The News Chopper (No Mercy Chapter 3 "The Sewers") in the skybox by default looks extremely bright, why?
The vmt file for the chopper body is set to "UnlitGeneric" instead of the usual "VertexlitGeneric"
The helicopter texture is totally different compared to the one from the skybox, so I just borrowed the texture from here https://www.gamemaps.com/details/25591 made by TheRealModSpace2018.

The fix is actually controversial, because I think the helicopter is more noticeable in it's original form than the corrected one.

I think it was done this way intentionally.

But thanks for the fix; the modders' contribution is invaluable.

I'm guessing the idea behind the shader being UnlitGeneric is that the bottom of the helicopter is reflecting the floodlights from the roof of the hospital? Still looks awful when it flies away from it though.
