Nice job getting Chet's email address. Where did you find it?

Anyways, Swamp Fever is almost done. I'll finish up with Zoey after I write the email.

EDIT: Alright, here it is. Swamp Fever is done.

Updated.
Now we just need to get in communication with Uriel and see if he'll make this the new front page (though keeping all the pics)

Fox, by default, the .vpk include the previous lines, unless I say otherwise.

Hey guys, i wrote a small solution for The passing stucking problems. Just test it and tell me if it works...

You also need AtomicStrykre's signature for it to work... (the .txt file goes on gamedata folder)

[drunkenfox1]

Stucking problems? Does this have to do with the original survivors in l4d2?

Portalboat, so basically I don't need to include the Dark Carnival .vpk anymore, correct?

[Portalboat]

Right, Fox.

There's a problem with in the Passing, since the actors are actually bots, they teleport whoever has the same ID, such as TeenGirl, Biker, or Manager. So, whoever gets teleported can't move, and thus can't get on the elevator.

What do you mean by that, Honorcode?

Yep, that plugin is suposed to fix that issue.

By the way, i've been researching about the HUD icons (survivor, lobby, etc) and the defaults in left 4 dead 1 are included on the left 4 dead 2 .vpk files. I looked into the resources folder, and found that some of the .res files "guide" the system to use the icons, which are in the .VTF file format. You can open this format with adobe photoshop, using this photoshop plugin: http://nemesis.thewavelength.net/index.php?p=39

Opening .res files with notepad will show the following structure (For example):

"Resource/UI/HUD/BoomerHealth.res"
{
	// HudLayout has size/position of HudZombieHealth panel this is part of

	"Health"
	{
		"ControlName"	"HealthPanel"
		"fieldName"		"Health"
		"xpos"			"322"
		"ypos"			"69"
		"wide"			"64"
		"tall"			"13"
		"visible"		"1"
		"enabled"		"1"
		"zpos"			"1"
	}

	"HealthNumber"
	{
		"ControlName"	"Label"
		"fieldName"		"HealthNumber"
		"xpos"			"335"
		"ypos"			"49"
		"wide"			"50"
		"tall"			"20"
		"visible"		"1"
		"enabled"		"1"
		"labelText"		"%HealthNumber%"
		"textAlignment"	"south-east"
		"font"			"MenuTitle"
		"zpos"			"2"
	}

	"BackgroundImage"
	{
		"ControlName"	"ImagePanel"
		"fieldName"		"BackgroundImage"
		"xpos"			"320"
		"ypos"			"0"
		"wide"			"100"
		"tall"			"100"
		"visible"		"1"
		"enabled"		"1"
		"scaleImage"	"1"	
		"image"			"HUD/PZ_healthbar_50"
		"zpos"			"-2"
	}
	
	"DuckingIcon"
	{
		"ControlName"	"ImagePanel"
		"fieldName"		"DuckingIcon"
		"xpos"			"320"
		"ypos"			"42"
		"wide"			"25"
		"tall"			"25"
		"zpos"			"2"
		"visible"		"1"
		"enabled"		"1"
		"scaleImage"	"1"
		"image"			"hud/crouch_infected"
	}
}

Where the keyvalue "image" will path us to the .vmt file being used. But now comes out a problem. I searched overall the .VPK files (pak01_dir and pak02_dir on left4dead2 folder) and i couldn't find any script, text or .res file that could have the previous structure with the survivors icons.

Where can them be? I have no idea. Just sharing my knownledge.

Nice, honorcode, convenient that that's exactly what we need

Will update with these changes

Ignore the attachment, it's just me doing something to make something else easier.
