Arrival - tells story of how all survivals were destine to meet base on Cause & Effect, L4D1 arrived at River City first aka DC1. DC 2 gives idea, how they get to River City, L4D2 were seeking solution about how all this took place.

Extinction is what you see in this world we are living (playing) out via fluoride and other deadly chemicals in the water we drink. HINT FLUORIDE ---> FLORIDA

DEAD CITY ---> DADE CITY, FLORIDA

The content is not to confuse but to extend the hidden story being told.

Dead City (DC) 1 & 2 - is introduction after breakout, based on a true story about reusable water.

Betrayal (Cause) - gives hint about military ports & underground bases shipping out chemicals, bricks being seen are the red dye chemicals (CoolAid) that is mixed with toxic solution.

Left Behind - this chapter ended with L4D1 survivors, which really was them going to River City, hint bridge on DayAfter you see military vehicle they had traveled.

DayAfter (Effect) - takes place when those barrels was shipped in water containers via Water Works.

8/10. Overall, it's a pretty good campaign. For a 5 chapter campaign, each chapters feels quite short though. It's not the end of the world, but it's kinda feels off i guess. Other than that, it's a pretty well balanced, neat looking campaign. (As a GFL player i approve the fire playlist my man)

@Sergeant Panda,

I take nothing personal, these haters are like zombies that attack trying to infect players with nonsense.

Thanks for your support.
Sergeant Panda 27 Jul @ 10:52am 
Great map, but you gotta share some of that kush you've been smoking its clearly good based on your most recent comment.
ilcannibal  [author] 26 Jul @ 12:05pm 
Like I said, "I will block & delete BS comments..." No time to play with any liars. How you going to try and correct me when in fact you hate correction you dang self. Those who know me I am real not fake (AI) talkers.

To resolve this, you need to ensure that a stringtable_dictionary.dct file is properly generated and embedded in the map's BSP file. String tables cannot be generated for VPK-packed maps without unpacking them first. Check if the stringtable_dictionary.dct file exists in the BSP’s root. If it’s missing, you need to generate it.

Load the map in console
Type stringtabledictionary in console to generate the string table

This command rebuilds the stringtable_dictionary.dct and embeds it into a new .bsp file for the loaded map. The updated .bsp file will be saved in Left 4 Dead 2\left4dead2\maps\

Repeat for Multi-Map Campaigns

Move these updated .bsp files to your campaign’s folder

Repack the Campaign

In Left 4 Dead (L4D) and Left 4 Dead 2 (L4D2) map development, the "string table" issue arises when a map lacks a properly embedded stringtable_dictionary.dct file in the BSP (Binary Space Partitioning) file. This can cause crashes or errors like "Map does not match the version on the server (string table differs)" when players try to join a server or play online. This issue is particularly common with custom maps or campaigns and can disrupt multiplayer functionality.

String tables (stringtable_dictionary.dct) are embedded in the BSP file to manage internal game strings, reducing network bandwidth in multiplayer games. Without a proper string table, L4D/L4D2 may attempt to generate one when loading the map, which can lead to crashes or desync issues, especially on dedicated servers.

Everyone has their own opinion that is fine, you can attempt to explain away any custom map, but the facts is so many want to complain that is the game they play.

Let me block these foolish trolls - LMFAO

Map 1 - If you cant explore, youre going to have hard time to navigate. A bit lengthy Map.
Map 2 - HARDEST. Once you open the Gate, fight 2 Tanks WITH HORDE. Good news is, this is a joke IF you have Molotov and lure them in land instead fighting them all in the Bridge LOL XD
Map 3 - Nothing special, keep moving.
Map 4 - A mix of Hold The Line then Scavenge, once generator is activated hold the line until you kill 2 Tanks. Once you killed 2, Scavenge starts and gather 8 Gas Cans, cans are far to generator BUT items are laying around the Map, USE THEM WELL! After the Scavenge, Hold The Line again and kill 2 TANKS AGAIN, AFTER THAT BOAT ARRIVES TO RESCUE YOU.

I like NIKKE and GFL2 EXILIUM unfortunately music needs to play when: In Saferoom Start, Horde Incoming Attack, Tank appears and Reached Saferoom Victory instead playing it on entire Map, it adds suspense similar to official campaigns.

ITEMS ARE GENEROUS and no crash with MODS so 8/10
Vivlos 21 Jul @ 5:16pm 
To me, the map isn’t hard in fact, it’s rather easy, but still good

The difficulty is a bit too high, especially too much witches

tanks with big ass hordes in finale
momasosjuan 16 Jul @ 11:36pm 
deserves a sequel
Leon 16 Jul @ 7:44am 
A high difficulty campaign that keep playing custom BGMs in the background just like the old school FPS games. Don't expect for any direction arrows because 3 maps except finale it's free to explore. I suggest explore for supplies beforehand in first map because after unlocking the alarm door the game will keep throwing hordes at you with no brake. Thus, getting a melee are recommended to clear the path. Second and third map is a lot easier than the first but you still need to know where to go. You can camp on a big rock near the generator in finale but those gas cans is a pain in the pants because they are far away. All saferoom doors on map start can be interact once only so if you have installed L4B mod, don't go back in after came out, otherwise...

the finale was enjoyable, but I feel like the timer between inserting the final gas can and the two tanks spawning could be a bit shorter :steamhappy:

Still adjusting finale script, thanks for the input...
anny 14 Jul @ 9:12am 
I legit cant tell im just bad or the finale on Expert spams so much CI that it's unbearable 😭

anyway theres a godspot in the finale to the left side on one of the truck so this map basically hard from the gascan part, the rest are fine
Nitrous 14 Jul @ 9:11am 
Good campain. Just the finale, can you decrease the number of CI spawned? Also the second tank spawn with the horde is not the good idea I think. Thanks for the campaign!
