I have coded in a reminder in the plugin itself, but alas no one reads anything a server tells them to do lol (Type !csm in chat to change your character. If you change to a L4D1 character, drop & then pick back up your main weapon so the model will not glitch.) 3. Bill is available in most L4D1 campaigns as Nick/Bill, the #1 option in the menu. This is for MOST L4D1 campaigns. 4. Bill is available as a model only on the second page of this character select menu in ALL maps - he will have Ellis' or Rochelle's voice - have fun with that, I do. 5. Change the config (l4dcsm.cfg) and I have no idea how it works, what it does, and don't really care 6. The attached file csm.zip, is a really old version of csm I found recently. Maybe this will help one of you other folks out there working on this. 7. The file all_csm.zip is every other csm file I possess. It contains l4dcsm_c.smx, which I spent 6 hours on. It is the L4D2 version of the above csm.zip that I thought was the holy grail - NOT - check it out though, I had a good feeling about it. These files might help someone too.

Doesn't work as intended, cant use l4d2 characters in l4d1 and vice versa, good try.

Your vice versa theory can head right out the window in to the proverbial trash can. Please read my name. Those are the only two pages of my csm plugin i can vouch for. They show up on all maps in COOP. These are CHARACTER changes, in all instances except for Bill, his is a model change. Yet I changed his model on a map the other day and got voice for him too. You cannot change in to an L4D2 character in some L4D1 maps. Precinct 84 for example. Official ports you can, and all those crazy guys maps on l4d2maps dot us. Last picture is L4D2 survivors on Blood Harvest. Poo poo on you.

idk who you are refering to, but this plugin crashed with bill and apart from that, it doesnt allow you to play l4d2 on l4d1 and l4d1 on l4d2 with full vocals. So there for...screenshots dont help you. Videos might.

There is a way to get this plugin to work correctly, and have all 8 survivors in game. Just have to use a set of plugins.

Do you perhaps have those said plugins to make it work correctly?

[Sev]

In all honesty.

Mi's final work on this plugin was perhaps the best version of this available. All it really needed was some tweaking which nobody bothered to do.

Things like...

- Keep the L4D1 survivor model/character on map changes and L4D2 survivors if picked
- Switch Bill to Nick on map change but then change Nick back to Bill on map load
- Keep Bill from being an issue with hordes which was addressed for the most part
- Keep characters when players go IDLE and not switch them back

Now regarding being able to use ALL of the characters with voice on all maps. You need to use a version of Downtown linked earlier in this thread by Mr. Zero. Its the only way to be able to use both sets of survivors on all maps via forcing survivor set to 2.

The only drawback to that is no L4D2 icons/names in L4D1 campaigns but that's only a small drawback to an otherwise great workaround.

I've only seen two server groupings that seemingly allow Bill in full voice and model and that's Simian Cage and the Graveyard ALL 8 survivor server which DOES NOT utilize the downtown version that allows both sets of voices on all campaigns. However that server does keep all survivor models/voice on all campaigns.

Hey Sev, I don't mean to be annoying here, but where on Earth do I put that "l4d_force_survivorset 2" command?

I already installed that version of L4Downtown that Mr. Zero posted, but I don't have a clue on how to use it.

[Sev]

Put it in your server.cg file if you are using that. Same thing if you are using a separate coop.cfg file.

But if you are only using the server.cfg

Use this below

sm_cvar l4d_force_survivorset 2

[XD001]

I'm assuming I need an actual dedicated server for it to work, right?

Because it doesn't seem to work when I host locally.

EDIT:
I have managed to create my own server but I get this error:

[SM] Unable to load extension "left4downtown.ext.ext": The specified module could not be found.

Any help on how to make it work?

EDIT AGAIN:

I have it working now.

I'm using it with the 8 survivors plugin that spawns everyone, but Bill is always Rochelle or Ellis, and then it eventually crashes.

I want it to be setup similar to the Graveyard servers, where it is all streamlined and works perfectly.
