Description

"BrInG mE a BeEr, h'I nEeD a BeEeEeR!!!" (c) Hank Kowalski

This is a very first version of this campaign ever released before even Left 4 Dead 2 came out.
It has cut from further versions tasks, randomizations, voicelines, overall maps layout differs.
Now it's fully playable, with No More Room In Hell atmosphere & custom weapons by Rectus.
Few things were changed for a bit more convenience and some of the Input/Output stuff fixed.
Finale map is from L4D1 version but is slightly redesinged to fit the flow of the previous level.
However I don't guarantee that this will work with tons of heavy mods, so keep that in mind.

The "Too" version has outdated vscripts, so don't complain here, choose either this or that.
The official DC version and this Uncut version shares the same up-to-date balanced vscripts.

Known bug: on maps 2,3,5 after team wipe, map flow will break, google doesn't have a solution.

Original day one non-recompiled maps
Slightest touch to cover up some imperfections
Fully refurbished triggers with working in/outputs
A couple of new buttons added instead of triggers
Custom weapons by Rectus to spice up the game
Annoying Hank Kowalski with his unskippable quests
Dumb game engine who can't refresh flow after fail
Free copy papers

It's OK

This version of Dead Before Dawn provides you with more events and higer difficulty. The layout of some areas is completely different from the DC version, giving me a fresh feeling. You can't say its design and detail level isn't stunning (unless you dislike unorthodox gameplay - that's the biggest feature of this version), although there're many nav issues and the search events are not all that fun. Bots get stuck and teleported very often, and it's easy to find a jesus spot in the finale.
In a word, it's not as perfect as the DC version (in my mind), but it's quite worth a try, as long as you're not who hates the voice actor. Of course, the premise is that you can find somebody to play with - from my experience of playing this on Expert Realism, I have to say this version is particularly brutal for bots. You may not even be able to complete the fourth map if you are the only human player..
