Now Hosting MrLanky's (aka CUPCAKE) Model ports! PLUS Koska's reskins & conversions!

You might have noticed way more models to download!

This is thanks to me for hosting & CUPCAKE, a L4D2 community modeler, taking on request after request on this very blog!

I'm so proud to have created a place for people to have had a chance to get their Survivor Model requests taken & full-filled, their ideas conveyed and their knowledge upon the subject expanded!

This all couldn't have been made possible without the interest of such a fantastic Left 4 Dead mod community. Clearly you guys rule!

Lastly, be sure to join my Steam Group!!!

  7. And two retuxters extra

    1.Zombies reskin more fresh and burned like

    http://i842.photobucket.com/albums/zz343/kostasishere/dvd/2_NEW_ZOMBIE_SKINS_L4D_2.jpg

    http://rapidshare.com/files/398856057/2_NEW_ZOMBIE_SKINS_L4D_2.vpk.html

    I hate how grey/desaturate zombies & special infected are in l4d2 and i fixed/reskin all the colours of the zombies like dawn of the dead 2004 (more fresh and burned like) not huge difference but looks better!
    2 bugs - 1 sometimes you will shot a zombie and the skin will mess up, the reason is they are alot of pics in 1 vtf image of zombie and i can't figure out how to fix it - and 2 ellis skin is used like ellis zombie hunter by LolzMan1325 who rigged it, clothes by K1CHWA and zombie skin by me so if you use ellis in game you will see him us zombie

    2.Sky and materials

    http://rapidshare.com/files/398864050/3_sky_and_materials.vpk.html

    I also hate how yellow colour is all over the game so i changed a lot of materials colours & sun to blue but steel day, have fun & enjoy!!!

  8. @Kostas I picked out those COD models for da1barker to port :) Thems my baby!!! <3 glad to see some hands coming along, they still look a little weird tho

    ReplyDelete
  9. Can someone upload the zombies fresh and burned because it's too large a file, plus, why do people even use rapidshare? It sucks!

    ReplyDelete
  10. o hey guys I just noticed some guy on l4dmods made replacements for the lobby,names, incapacitated, and icon pics for the whole resident evil gang It's such a great pack, and it totally brought tears to my eyes

  12. Ubtri i know and thank you for that ;) and also this is why i asked you to post them here.
    I know they look little weird, so here is a version with COD MW2 Survivors with the original skins from da1barker & arms with a little better version without too much alpha, so no extreme shining & you can see the camo better.

  13. Thankies! I was just saying you could upload them someone different, like filefront or something...

    ReplyDelete
  14. I managed to get all the kh1 and kh2 models for you in this pack from medrop so you don't have to look all over the place. it would be awesome to see melee weapons come from this and maybe sora,kairi,riku, and roxas as survivors

    http://www.megaupload.com/?d=UWQWMVJR

    ReplyDelete
  15. @Kostas the MW2 surv_arms will work with using the other da1barker vpk's? Just clarifying, if so you are awesome for that! Let me know i will just add the hands into the same download archive as the survivor vpk's & revise the readme to credit you for your work. do you have any kind of site or profile i can link too like mrlanky or a myspace or somethin?

    ReplyDelete
  16. Judging by the size of the file it replaces the for 4 separate vpk's?

    ReplyDelete
  17. BTW I will host your files soon those other sets look great! I just would like to link to you somehow, an email, a website, so people can talk to you about it!

    ReplyDelete
  18. I have a question for MrLanky..

    I love the M3 and Beretta models, the problem is that they don't work online. I know that there are custom models that work fine online (like the M4 model by Idletart(Is that his name?)) Anyway, I wondered if you could fix this. Also, the M3 changes both the ground model(the model when it's laying on the ground, I mean) of the chrome and wooden shotgun. I also wonder if this could be fixed.

    Thanks again for these great models and I hope there are many more to come.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Enjoy Eri and you are right it sucks if you don't have RS with the wait time and all that...

    Sorry mtragnarak but i don't know how to rig stuff only skin, coding, and edit to files.

    Ubtri in the the MW2 surv_arms is the 4 mw players with original skin & the arms not only the hands but ufcourse you can use them in any skinpack with adding them or if you put your new addon skin pack after mw-arm pack so in l4d2 addon menu screen the new pack will be show bellow mw-arm pack. As for a tip i found that you can use use up to 8 custom arms for l4d2 so if you have a pack you like just add the arms who looks ok with the models and just skin them to look ok.
    If you want i can help you with a pack you use & like (no problem with that) or send me your mail because contact doesn't work to my pc without msn & i will send you tutorial how to do it because there is some bugs but it is very easy really!

    Ps thanks a lot & for the credits you said & this a page i have http://zombievirus.12.forumer.com/
    & this is my space http://www.myspace.com/kostasishere

  21. @kostra: isn't this still the forum for cupcakes stuff??? because that was meant for him

    ReplyDelete
  22. @Kostas Your zombies reskin file is too large to download for free from rapidshare, can you try megaupload?

    ReplyDelete
  23. Sorry mtragnarak i didn't understand, post to Cupcake here, this is the forum you want, cheers

    http://ubtri.blogspot.com/2010/06/l4d2-wwwmrlankycom-another-source-for.html

    No problem ubtri, Kostasishere is my steam name but i don't play a lot online, as for the request if i can help in something & i can do it, no problem ;)
    Also if you can i don't want to steal credits for something i didn't do so if you can fix models by kostas but from Cupcake & da1barker, i am fine with that!

    ________________________________

    Here is & some different sound mods i had fixed if anyone want them.

    1st i reinstall l4d2 almost 7 times now with messing up the files so keep your backups because if you don't like them i don't have the original files to post!!! The voice packs is all of the original voice of the game but with different tones, enjoy!

  29. I had the same problem at the past when i try to load the passing, it is because you must to have a map from l4d1 or a map who use the same models from l4d survivors(they have bugs because they override the l4d1 survivor models from the passing) and i just saw i that i forgot inside the pack leon-ellis/zoey-claire (but no biker?) from cupcake, who works fine to me.
    If they are the problem just remove them from vpk or will fix it & they will work right but when i had theis problem i fixed it by removing the maps with the l4d1 surv models. Here is & some pictures i just took with the swat pack and addons stuff to work right in the passing if you have the problem there too.

    charger to tyrant ?
    I love RE D:

    ReplyDelete
  31. Tanks to neme wouldn't be possible, the animations would retard out, maybe to smoker or something (This tentacle instead of tongue)

    ReplyDelete
  32. =/
    smoker is a good idea \o/
    ooooooh
    and change hunter of l4d2 to hunter of RE1 *-*

  33. and licker of RE

    ReplyDelete
  34. @Kostas I am confused easily, and i personally do not know how to edit a vpk.. but yes the first map i tried loading was the passing and it crashed :/ so you are saying it works in the l4d1 maps in l4d2? does it work in the regular l4d2 campaigns or other custom campaigns?

    ReplyDelete
  35. @Kostas judging by the pic you had no problem running The Passing with the swat mod, right? so the error I had, can you edit and reupload?

    ReplyDelete
  36. You guys can just use FILESMELT.COM

    Its easier to upload, free, and its FAST.

    Screw rapidshit, take all the downloads to Filesmelt, its way better.

    Also, Loving all the new replacements kostas!

    ReplyDelete
  37. @ubtri

    I wouldnt mind if you host my mod here :D

    ReplyDelete
  38. Thanks ToxicMadn3ss have fun and enjoy the skins also sorry but rs is more easy & fast for me to upload them by using RS manager, i just drug & drop.

    Ubtri i mean it is not the problem from the swat pack, the mod is ok with any map you want to play but from a custom map you have download, some maps use the materials & models from l4d1 game and they override the survivor models from the passing because they have the same name but they are not compatible with l4d2 game. To fix it uncheck all your addons from the menu and then check 1 or 2 each time and try to load the passing until you see what addons have the problems. It takes time but this is what i did, (even before i add the swat pack to the game) to fix that problem.
    Ex if you have daid air or Death Toll Modified maps they are one reason you have this error & you can't load the passing.
    Here is a pack without louis/leon and zoey/claire skins from Cupcake just incase. Hope i help.

  39. @Klown do you have a website you would like linked too?

    ReplyDelete
  40. @kostas unfortunately for your mod, I am quite involved with the l4d1 campaigns as I am webmaster and run the steam group for the project, so i have to test them from time to time. will this new download fix the issue regarding l4d1 models? why didn't you use l4d2 models?

    ReplyDelete
  41. That's disappointing, the down-loaders like me and others need to wait about either 100 to 35 seconds depending on the size, plus a 6 minute download which could have taken 2 minutes.

    Also a 14 minute result after downloading a rapidshit file, but hey. If you want to host it there, do so.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Ok Ubri try to delete the SWAT mod from your addon file & try to run the passing, if it runs fine the problem of course is my pack and with the new pack i post above you will have no problem because i removed the l4d1 survivors from the vpk so only the 4 survivors will be replace & the guns. If you steel have the problem i only told you what i did to fix it because when i had this problem i had only maps inside the addon file & no models at all and this what i thought and understand as solution to fix it!

    ReplyDelete
  43. Ubri here is a fix i just created so either if the error is from me or from a map

    http://rapidshare.com/files/399792858/fix.vpk.html

    It is the original surv models from the passing, add it to your addons file and just be sure to be checked and to be at the end of you list at the addon menu, i believe it will work fine, cheers!

    ReplyDelete
  44. @Kostas Okay, I'm going to reupload your last updated version + include the fix in the rar, when it is uploaded I will get it back on the site as it was before :)

    It will be a while before I can get it back up as this is a popular time to use the internet for streaming stuff on our media pc :)

    ReplyDelete
  45. @Kostas also I am sorry but due to the size of the file (I'm reaching a limit to how much more I can host) I removed the extra background videos and only include the intro & logo -- I hope you understand!

    ReplyDelete
  46. Ubri no worries, trying to explain something like that in another language from what i speak & write make me feel my head will explode. XD
    Modify it as you like & have a great day!!! Cheers! ;)

    ReplyDelete
  47. @Kostas I got a different error regarding "the server enforces hunter.mdl" or something... I removed all l4d1 campaigns and extra assets, etc.

    ReplyDelete
  48. This error is not from the maps but from 2_NEW_ZOMBIE_SKINS_L4D_2.vpk because there is a new hunter (zombie ellis)model inside but you need to add sv_consistency 0 to your autoexec or your server file and it will work fine, your l4d1 campaigns and extra assets is fine with this don't remove them, i forgot to say that at the info.Here is and a pack without new models for hunter & witch if anyone dont wan't to use the cvar at his server, enjoy!

    Cheers Ubtri ;)

    ReplyDelete
  51. @Kostas Holy shit your SWAT mod is GREAT! I made a video, will post it tonight to get it more attention!

    ReplyDelete
  52. just fyi for anyone else having any problems with the passing, I've noticed that addons in general tend to mess it up. On my server (linux dedicated) if you have any addons installed at all it will crash in campaign mode but work perfectly fine in every other mode. weird, huh?
    so I had to make a choice between addons or campaign mode and I'm sure you can guess what I picked lol! anyways, if you check on the steam forums addons conflicting with the passing is a known issue that has yet to be fixed. Just thought i would throw that in for general info. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  53. Thanks a lot Ubtri, hope you enjoy it :)
    and Like Cupcake said there is a lot of bugs with the passing but i found that some custom maps/campaigns who converted or made for l4d1 use some of the model/script files witch is the same files only from the passing(ex l4d1 survivor models) and they are not compatible with l4d2 and except that every time you run l4d2 it creates some temp files inside the game from the addons you have(what is weird)but this is why the error is only at the passing .
    The only way to fix it is to create a vpk add-on with the original files from the passing(Left 4 Dead 2/left4dead2_dlc1) and at the list it must to be at the bottom of the addon menu, so it will run first and it will override all of the buggy files from the custom maps!
    Hope i help, because my Engish suck...:)

    ReplyDelete
  54. @Kostas you should check out my main blog page once in a while, you are the subject of my latest entry! http://ubtri.blogspot.com/2010/06/l4d2-swat-survivor-mod-by-kostas-with.html

  55. @Cupcake do you have any other cool server stuff like leveling? If so give me your ip :)

    ReplyDelete
  56. BTW Kostas your English is just fine I think... I understand you pretty clear, I just don't know how to edit vpk's so you lose me with the technical jargon :P

    ReplyDelete
  57. Hahaha i just saw that :) thanks a lot Ubtri, you don't need to do something like that & also to edit a vpk it's just like unzip nothing else!

    ReplyDelete
  62. @Kostas I made a custom background vid & intro for the first l4d a year ago or so, unfortunately it has been lost since it was hosted on l4dmods.com then and poof, their download host was no more :/

    Glad for that & good taste in music also your video was edited really good & dead set was a great movie/series also, too bad that lost from their server & you didn't keep a backup :(
    I also try to make some background videos from few movies & stuff but not a lot of free time with the job & others. I will post them here when they will be readdy and hope they will look good & cool like yours, cheers ubtri! ;)

    ReplyDelete
  64. ah thanks for the compliments! maybe someday I will make another. I always hoped someone else might have a backup and even posted on the l4dmods.com forum but never got a response :/

  65. Well here is some good news, i don't have the intro unfortunately but i forgot i have the custom background in my l4d1, here

    ReplyDelete
  66. has anyone running the extra models noticed that if the original 4 chars aren't still there as well closing the safe room door doesn't end the map? I just noticed this tonight on my server. kinda weird....i guess cause they're seperate models and the actual survivors have to finish to end the map it doesn't count the additional models as survivors. odd....

    ReplyDelete
  67. ok, after some testing, it seems more like a map/campaign specific glitch...at least that is the case once the models have been incorporated into the !csm menu. I only got one endless map on dc this time(map 3) whereas before the first 3 all did it. sooooo....i guess it is kinda broke, but just not as bad as i thought. and there is always the possibility that one of my many plugins has some small part in it as well...who knows...sigh...at least it's mostly working...at any rate, if anyone is interested in seeing my modified csm source so they can modify it for their own servers, let me know and I will post mine for you. it's always easier to do these things when you have a working example after all.
