Is there any plan to make SourceMod compatible with Left4Dead? An RPG SourceMod plugin for Left4Dead would be awesome, especially with all of the NPCs!

We only plan for compatibility with games that are built off and compatible with the Source SDK. To date there are only two commercial games built off Source matching that condition, "The Ship" and "Garry's Mod 10." I believe neither was boxed. In comparison, there was a boxed game called "Dark Messiah: Might and Magic" based off Source but they chose it to be incompatible with the SDK.

This is a very old post... but yes, do we have to wait for valve to release the sdk?

We will certainly start looking into it. Metamod has to be ported first.

If SM and MM will end up not working with L4D, I will be mightily peeved.

CoOp games need the MOST admining than any other...

Valve ultimately has to release an SDK. I tried asking about this but I got a terse shunning, as is their communication style.

We will reverse engineer pre-emptively (DamagedSoul and pRED have already started) to see if there's potential. Based on demand we'll see where to go from there.

Metamod needs doing first as it won't load on L4D as I tried today.

Its sounds like to me Valve doesnt want L4D to become a customizable game, they want every server to be the same like single player but with internet players. They probably saw TF2's customization and said I dont want that to happen with L4D.
