It was a long time desire of mine to remake the first person arms of the L4D1 crew to fit L4D2 animations better.

After some tinkering I discovered that all L4D2 characters basically use the same arm mesh for all the characters and if you pay close attention to the normal maps, you'll notice they are the same one for Ellis, Nick, Coach and even Rochelle. So I ran with this logic and created meshes for the L4D1 crew out of Ellis's arms with some tweaks. I also improved clothing meshes and added a brand new wrist watch for Louis and got rid of seams where I could. Naturally, this does not work with reskins.
