[Particles] L4D1 Fire+

Description
Current Mod Version: b1_0
Replaces: Fire Particles
Namely: burning_fx, fire_01, fire_01l4d, fire_fx, fire_infected_fx.pcf

The following mod replaces a handful of fire particle effects with ports of the fire pfx seen in the first game.

These have been ported as-are for the most part but I have edited them a little bit for this release. Due to Left 4 Dead 2's more sunny nature (both in vanilla and custom maps) the default L4D1 fire looked very dull and lacked color especially in maps like Dead Center, so I gave it a slightly stronger and brighter orange color (specifically on the burning effect on the zombies) so that it'd look similar in both dark and sunny maps. End result looks pretty serviceable and I couldn't find any spots where the different fire particles caused issues.

Of course due to different bloom settings per map (both vanilla and custom) it may look brighter / darker than intended in some areas of some maps, not a whole lot I can do there.

Please report any bugs you find!

at night it looks fine, but in some daytime maps it looks see through. not an issue of brightness or color but opacity.

This mod really makes fire more serious and beautiful like the first game. You did an awesome job :steamthumbsup:

This is amazing but i wish there was a version where it's exactly like L4D1, more yellow, just..straight up the L4D1 fire without any modifications. I say this because the other port of the L4D1 fire on the workshop is broken, the molotov fire is fine but the fire on Infected or the environment (For example the Dead Air Airplane crash fire wall) are broken.

So while this is clearly the better choice i wish there was just a definitive port of the L4D1 fire.

Only issue I have is that the fire you see in campaigns like Dead Center is still the L4D2 fire, which looks weird when it sets zombies on fire with the fire from this mod.
