Dead Flag Blues 2 - Reborn V2.0

VERSION 2.0

A complete remake of Dead Flag Blues, a five chapter custom campaign back from the original Left 4 Dead! Created by Juxtapox and then later ported to Left 4 Dead 2 by Gemini Saga, I've blended elements from both the original and the port to make this modern rendition. Every map has been reconstructed from the ground up, and I've made a few level design and gameplay changes to the campaign to give it more of a vanilla "Valve" feel. Some of the major changes are listed below:

- ALL guns and most melee weapons have a chance of spawning in any map (Including CSS weapons!)
- Authentic lighting and ambience in all levels taken from official Valve campaigns
- New soundscapes and proper cubemaps (For world sounds and reflections)
- Unique survivor dialogue added throughout the campaign
- New and improved breakable infected walls in all maps
- Left 4 Dead 1 common and special infected models
- New dynamic paths in the first 4 chapters

Major level specific changes:

Chapter 1:
- The ending saferoom is now in the basement of the building, fixing an inconsistency between maps 1 and 2
- A new crescendo event replaces the makeshift bridge between the buildings leading to the saferoom

Chapter 2:
- A fence near the start of the level that survivors must climb over, preventing backtracking to the saferoom
- The storm effects from Hard Rain have been replaced with No Mercy's rain, thunder and lightning effects
- The alarm door gauntlet crescendo has been replaced with alarm cars that now fill the parking garage
- The car crash event near the library has been overhauled and turned into a mini-crescendo!
- New explore-able areas in places that were extremely linear before

Chapter 3:
- The entire level has been mirrored to make map 4's location make sense in-world (The map plays out the same)
- The buggy van pushing crescendo on the field has been replaced with the Howitzer from Crash Course
- The Tank event in the stadium makes more sense now, and no longer triggers a horde
- No Mercy's storm effects from the previous chapter have been added to the map

Chapter 4:
- The survivors now exit the starting saferoom on the ground level, fixing an inconsistency between maps 3 and 4
- The giant cliff near the ending safehouse has been replaced by a deadly electrified river (Be careful!)
- The large hill near the bridge is now a one way drop, preventing backtracking to the saferoom

Chapter 5:
- The finale begins by starting a generator now, which turns the station's lights on and alerts the horde
- Removed the speeding train that could kill survivors unfairly after calling the actual rescue vehicle
- Added a building across from the station and many item spawn locations to encourage exploring
- Added the sun entity from the final level of Swamp Fever to the existing skybox
