Dark Carnival: Remix (Left 4 Dead 2)

Dark Carnival: Remix is a remake of Dark Carnival that restores beta and cut content and adds new areas of Whispering Oaks for you to explore! See the Tunnel of Love with flowing water, the towering Ferris Wheel spinning around, and the explosive Concert finale as it was originally intended. In addition, new mechanics have been added for versus mode that provide for a more competitively balanced experience. There's also a secret ending cutscene that bridges the gap between Dark Carnival and Swamp Fever if you can find all five secret coins (one on each map! Special thanks to the original designers of Dark Carnival at Valve for providing me with information about its beta development.

I'm aware of the glitch where sometimes the finale doesn't continue when the Tank dies, but it seems to occur rarely and I'm unsure of how to replicate it. In my personal testing, it happened perhaps 1 in 30 times, for no discernible reason. I changed the logic that detects if a Tank dies, and it stopped happening for me, but if it's still occurring for you, then that fix must not have sufficed. If anyone can figure out how to replicate this bug consistently every time then I'll definitely fix it. For now, however, I recommend disabling all addons (just in case) and restarting the map. Sorry about that!

Yeah, everything and nothing happens.

Sorry, but the finale can't be completed for me. What's the problem I had? Well, after killing the first tank, nothing happens and no zombies spawned, stuck like this, can't do anything.

Some tools need to be activated in order to continue the finale. Try to look around. Maybe there are some highlighted buttons that you haven't pushed yet? The finale is rather different from the original Dark Carnival. You need to activate few switches to proceed.

Why did you put version 1.5 if you did not change anything? seems confused. Still one of the best l4d cams I've ever seen.

MattNF March 2019

There were changes. Not sure what you mean.

Still one of the best l4d campaign I've ever seen.

He meant your page said (v1.5 Complete) but the file name was "l4d2_dark-carnival_-remix_20723_v1_4". Did you update your files from v1.4 to v1.5 within a day?

Now this, is how Dark Carnival should've been. Well done. Repurposed wasted dialogue, and overhauled Dark Carnival to being a unique campaign instead of a classic L4D style campaign. No issues encountered, seriously, go play this, 10/10.

How Dark Carnival should have been

By LilG February 2019

This is version is more in depth than the official campaign,I don't get why Valve didn't use more elements from this. The part with the monorail,ferris wheel were a nice touch to the carnival along with the tunnel of love. The park looks much grittier & looks pretty different. I liked the finale,it was a challenge even on normal/realism with the instructions given from collecting the can,turning up the volume to 11. The original finale felt pretty simple in comparison.

Excellent...!

By kurochama February 2019

When I read the title for the first time, I thought "Maybe it's just a remake version with few changes". During the play till the finale, my expression was "Wow...!! This looks like a completely different map!". This one is really beyond my expectation, in good ways. The amusement park is changed to be mostly different from the original. The finale has two parts, & the last part is interesting because there are several instructions to do during defense until the rescue time, not just doing one-two things & then waiting till done. There are secret coins to give more fun (unfortunately, I only found one coin on the finale on my first try on this campaign). . There are no bot navigation error & no crash. The environments are cool, along with the secret coins. You really did a great work on this campaign. I'll play this map again later because I'm still curious of the secret cutscene for collecting all the coins. Nice...!! :D .

a hard but fun twist

By SerenityRose February 2019

this was a fun but also a very hard map I do love the different things this map have you do and the final was very fun to booth. there was no cheap deaths and I always knew where to go you have to try very hard to get lost or not pay attention to your Surroundings the bots never got stuck. no bugs or glitches. I gave this a 4 out of 5 the map was challenging but also fair and the final was a lot of fun. Recommended difficulty Easy/Normal. (the maps is fun but if you're not paying attention to yourself or others it can be hard to deal with the horde.) play it at least once

By jaku January 2019
