you can play single player with this map by going to survival -> local server -> choose this map in addon select -> start game in lobby, without needing any other player but yourself, hence not needing the internet at all(except for downloading this map and workshop server).

Not for singleplayer

It has Sympathy For The Devil playing which is just as epic, since it's also a Vietnam war music. Sure less iconic than Fortunate Son, since it was introduced in so many pop culture the more recent years, like Forrest Gump. But the song I was using have the same value and delivers just the same feels without being redundant.

im very dissapointed that the vid did not have fortunate son playing

Yeah, the Spitter do that shit when I played the map, didn't know smoker would too, lol. This probably because of invisible brush I'm using instead of of a "proper" collision model(which is impossible for a model that size. I will work on it when i have the time

I know the missing skybox is due to my shader setting on my end. And yes, smoker shoot tounge through wall like sniper.

Thank you for the video feedback, appreciate it. The skybox texture supposed to use Left 4 Dead 2 default skybox texture, so it's not a missing texture on my end. And wall hack smoker like it shoots its tongue through wall ? There's case where even spitter shoot through wall, it must have been wall material issues, I'm gonna have to find a way to fix it. And of course various map design flaws, like invisible walls bordering map.

nice job man

I've tried everything, but it doesn't seem to work. Before it was in the vpk, when the files in my game directory, this didn't happen, my custom textures and their bumpmap all worked, no screwed up "brightness".

New update, missing texture fixed.

Thanks, Bill. Another usefull tool I'm gonna be using.

i've never used it myself but vive is another tool to load textures directly into your bsp.

also make sure the vmt file for your custom textures is pointing to the correct directory.

i.e.

LightmappedGeneric
{
"$basetexture""mycustom/borgqueen"
"$Translucent""0"
"$decal" "1"
"$decalscale""0.25"
}

Just updated, fixed some issue and added more items. Although, I don't know how to fix the missing texture, because all the custom texture content required is already uploaded and there isn't any texture problem when I run the map on my system, I have to look further into this problem.

when you compile the map the custom textures need to be in your L4D2 directories

Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Left 4 Dead 2\left4dead2\materials
for example
then when you compile the those same textures need to be in the vpk materials directory.

to test you would take out the custom textures from your L4D2 directory and then run the map from your vpk

i usually make a "my custom" folder and put it within the L4D2 materials folder
Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Left 4 Dead 2\left4dead2\materials\mycustom
that way it's easy to take out-everything as it's in one place.

yep it runs fine. i know it's in alpha but i just wanted to point out a few things.
cheers

Weird, I'm using a custom texture, but all those texture file should be part of the .vpk content that I uploaded. How could this be.

Thanks for testing it out, Bill. I think I know how to fix most of the issue. It's good to know that map runs find and dandy on your system.

lots of walls not solid, a lot of missing textures.
