they throw molotovs in the original gyftvs! oh my goodness me

[Gorpson Florpius]

so the molotov models in 2000 and earlier were way different from the ones we see in the megabuild
they had an entire sheet instead of using one texture to make it just a curved cylinder (including a normal texture and a mask texture, the mask showing it's definitely old as things like gasmask citizens and other very old textures have the same thing
the textures of the older molotov are in both V_molotov and w_molotov, showing the viewmodel had a mask and the worldmodel didn't
i originally thought in the free tvs demo citizens just didnt throw molotovs and instead played animations showing them throwing it which had the effects of the molotov occur as soon as the animation finished but apparently the molotovs just blended in with everything!
just a neat little finding
here's my awesome sheet of molotov lore showing the pieces of evidence that the citizens actually throw molotovs AND the molotov models they use

Good catch Gorpson!
