Purpose:

This allows you to open downloaded .mdl files in model viewer (hlmv) by just double-clicking on them.

Compatibility:
- Windows
- L4D1 / L4D2 / Maybe, other games too if you correct all paths

Installation:
1. Download archive attached, unpack appropriate folder (l4d1 or l4d2).
2. Move unpacked folder to safe place on PC where you'll not touch/not delete it.
3. Right click on hlmv_loader.vbs => Edit => Change this line:
Code:
L4d = "D:\Steam2\steamapps\common\left 4 dead"
to the full path of your game. Then, File => Save.

4a. For Windows 7 only:
- Run As Admin (RMB -> Run as Administrator) the file Assoc_Installer_Win7.bat

4b. For Windows 8/10+ only:
- Run any .mdl file
- in "Open with..." window => (scroll to bottom) => More Apps => (scroll to bottom) => Look for another App => Browse to unpacked folder and select launcher_Win10.bat
- Run any .mdl file again, mark checkbox "Always use this app", select launcher_Win10.bat from the list => OK.
- If checkbox "Always use this app" doesn't exist, you shall go a long way:

Dependency:
