Vanilla Gear Expanded [B41 & B42]

New outfits and gear to expand the various law enforcement agencies & special police forces that would likely be in the area. Some vanilla textures have also been altered to improve quality and fix poor font choices.

Items can be found in various police stations around the map, zombies also have a small chance to spawn wearing the uniforms. Will work on current saves though items wont spawn in areas you've already visited.
