Description
Welcome to The Official Left 4 Dead 2 Beta Restoration ProjectSummary The Left 4 Dead 2 Beta Restoration Project gives the Valve gaming community a faithful remake of the Left 4 Dead 2 E3 Demo, a pre-release build of Left 4 Dead 2 that showcases many unused designs, features, and concepts. Using this mod pack, players can relive the unique Left 4 Dead 2 experience brought to players at E3 2009! Important Notes Users MUST understand that there are limiting functions within this addon that will directly impact gameplay. These changes have been incorporated to give users the most accurate representation possible, while also maintaining faithfulness to the original product. This means you acknowledge the following: - The mod's scripts will adjust and replace some core game functions. - You will be limited to Single Player and Friends-only Campaign. - The (E3) Parish Campaign will be your only campaign selection. - Local Servers (for script activation) will be your only selectable server setting. If you wish to have access to the rest of the game's directory or combine with other addons, please download the Online Edition. Installation Simply take the VPK file and place it in your Left 4 Dead 2 addons directory located at C:\Program Files(x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Left 4 Dead 2\left4dead2\addons. Ensure that all other mods are disabled prior to this addon's activation. If you wish to install bonus media files, such as the main menu background and E3 trailer introduction, view the Enhanced Folder section below. Enhanced Folder The Enhanced folder consists of more E3-related content that cannot be activated by a simple VPK replacement. It can be opened using the external program GCFScape. Please see the readme for these installation instructions. Credits Crediting all collaborator assets is extremely important, and we will do our best to ensure all work is properly recognized. To view all assets used in this project, see here. Legal Sourcerer requires that if another content creator wishes to re-upload exclusive content, Gigan, or Sourcerer, must be credited and notified with a valid reason. This is not only for the protection of our assets, but also for the rightful protection of donated content and official Valve assets. If Sourcerer finds any unofficial rereleases without permission, Sourcerer will file for copyright. Not removing the item will result in a report.
