Description
This is the exact same mod as my old MW2 Emergency Broadcast, minus the VMT file for the off variant of the TV. So now it only replaces the static and colortest TV skins, along with the static sound.

Has 22 mb of animated frames and a proper TV border. Cubemaps included. Includes a replacement for the TV static sound.

I kind of felt finding TVs that are just, on, especially on maps with power outages like Hard Rain was a little bit stretchy for realism. It was the cost of being able to see this mod in action on L4D2 campaigns since all of the TVs are found off. This doesn't help though when many custom maps have TV props that break and turn off when shot or take damage.

So this variant makes it so when you do find a TV that is on, its a bit more spook. And its, logically on I suppose.

If you like the TVs to always blast the broadcast regardless, click on the link for the old mod embedded in the text above.

OOh wow, thank you so much! I was actually looking at that color correction a few days ago and wondering if I should use it. Thanks for telling me!

This is a great mod as well, that sound always scares me in real life.

Sure thing. I use;

"A random color correction pack"
"NeunGUI"
And my own "Geared Anonymous Civilian Survivors."

If you go into my subscribed addons collection, you can find all of these mods there, and more that I use. Since I know the in's and outs of this game I like to balance simple GUI, drab glows, and beautiful, realistic color corrections which tone the lighting to more of what is real.

I had a feeling re-uploading the old mod would put it in the recent section, giving people who've never seen it a chance to discover it. Personally I think its a one of a kind mod. I've yet to see any "emergency broadcast" TV replacements out there that talk to you or address you, or try to invoke a sense of dread without directly telling the player of what exactly is going on.

There are others out there but they're the classic white text "zombzzzz!" type of broadcast. This one I like so much, because its intentionally vague in its description to prevent mass panic which IMO is much nicer and realistic. Also, the "be aware of your surroundings. Remain alert." give me goosebumps everytime I read it, since L4D2 requires you to listen all the time for music cues.

Might I ask what mods you used in the second screenshot for it to look so good? Like any color corrections or anything? And what survivor model?
