Essential Info
Doing these is not cheating, there is no danger. Simply any file with vpk extension is counted as an addon. The game's textures, models etc. It covers things like this, rest assured.


Do not trust methods other than these methods. Only these methods are approved.


Let's talk about the safe methods approved by 2 different games.




First Method (Enabled in Every Mode)
First, subscribe to the mode you want to use and enter the game.

After entering the game, find Left 4 Dead 2 in the Steam library, right click, properties and select browse from installed files.


Click on the folder named left4dead2>addons>workshop


Go to file left4dead2>addons>workshop,
copy the vpk extension of the mod you subscribed to here


Go back to left4dead2 and create a file name


Then go into it and right click and paste the file.
If you are going to use many mods in one file, create one more file.


change your name do this "pak01_dir"


Go back again "left4dead2" and find "gameinfo.txt" After open


We write the location and name of the file we created here like this:
Game left4dead2\cs2\menu

Second Method (For Local Play)
Go to file left4dead2>addons>workshop,
copy the vpk extension of the mod you subscribed to here


left4dead2>go back to addons section and paste and name it

TY:boomer:

P.s: ts method is 100 times better than L4DAM bc it doesn't break the gameinfo.txt file

I have automated this method, now it can be done with 1 button using L4DAllowMods

Yes, you need to set it so that there is only one pak01_dir in each file you create, then write the file name in gameinfo.txt
