Mod Ideas

I want you the L4D2 community to help give me ideas on what you guys would like to see.


I will consider every submission and would love to connect and share some fun with you guys. Thank you for your attention and thank you for your ideas and thanks for posting!

Left 4 Dead 2 modding.

I'll introduce myself first off, my nickname is Hey Koolaid but Koolaid for short. I am a server administrator for Marvelous Gaming. I have spent 1660 hours in left 4 dead 2 *all of the hours are playing matches they are not idle hours* and I started to become bored with it so I looked at left4deadmaps.com for some new mods to liven things up again. It worked for awhile but I realized I still wasn't quite happy with just playing with other peoples mods.

I looked into how to decompile files and recompile them and I made a few mods just for myself. I made the Dark Carnival concert play Linkin Park, Johnny Cash, Power man 5000 and allot of others. I then decided to move onto making tank music mods and I took the jukebox song *All we want to do is eat your brains* and made it for the tank whenever he would appear. I loved it greatly but decided I wanted to do more.

Left 4 dead 2 workshop came out and it was a easy way fro modders and players to connect with one another and have a simpler avenue  to showcase their projects. I had someone request a music pack for the tank wanting only the song from the seconded tank at dark carnival and so I made the mod and uploaded it and instantly got other people interested in the mod. I had pms from random l4d2 players asking me if i could make more mods and so I began working on more and more.


I won't bore you guys with a life story of how I got my first video game or any other ridiculous nonsense. I would like if anyone has an idea to go ahead and post it for me and that way I can keep a central knowledge base where i can look and see oh they would like to see this in a mod. Anyways thanks guys I will continue to make mods until i run out of ideas.
