@UNKNOUT thx

@Cute Fanart Here "Neon"version

Hello where is Neon version?

Hud Icon plssssssssssss

How did all the Crossbow R1s get on the search results for CSS Scout skins?

Video updated !

Updated sounds !

I personally use the rescurve, the crossbow, and the grenade laucher bow to have a 3 tier system to the bow class. There are plenty of people who do enjoy vanilla l4d as well though which both the modders and the regs. keep the game alive lol

All someone would need to do to replace the bow would be to switch out the models and make new animations to match, really just like any other weapon replacement. (And maybe edit the script to make it fire instantly).

@ Ferret & Rectus , i see thanks , but for now i don't know how to make these things yet , focusing on making weapons models + textures, if someone know this and want to port it , i could see something shooting slowly but making high damage like in walking dead and maybe with melee bonus damage.

But as i said i play with poeple on custom maps often on local/private server who like the game as it is without mods , so tbh i won't probably do it myself but you guys can try :)

They're probably asking you to make it a fully custom weapon, like m bow (that shoots actual arrows): https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1077649911y

It's just a hack really, making a custom melee weapon that uses a vscript to add new weapon logic. This method is very limited in what you can do though.

For the easiest way, you could just replace my bow with the crossbow model, it should be just like doing any model replacement mod.

To be fair the scripts of the person hosting Takes priority i believe so it shouldnt effect gameplay. Its like the custom maps that have built in melee weapons but with new secondaries

@ vector , sorry but i don't want any script on my weapons, it causes consistency problem to join some local and / or dedicated server + i don't see what this could bring more to the crossbow ? you can already play my crossbow on official server.

custom weapon base

@ captain lag, Maybe in a future.

@ Vector, i have no idea what your are talking about but if it's something about making an other model, so no not yet.

@author
could you make a version of this that uses the CWB?

could there be a military sniper crossbow? and me only complaint is the green on that one.

I love it! Can You guys make in pink ? :3 Plz Plz Plz

@ Ryuji, you can edit sounds in audacity, remove / cut / move and audio part from an existing sound or from an external source , but basicly yes your are making a new sound by editing it, and after you are satisfied of your changes, you export it in .wav and rename/replace the original sound in the folder ( extracted with gfscape). I can still hear your sound and if it's fits well i can upload a new version OR if it doesn't fit ( for my taste ) i can give you a download link of the crossbow with your sound.
But curently my pc is down, ill get a new one soon, so maybe try by yourself first and ask me after for last solution ok ? :)

@Ramm.asmiette The tutorials I found are only for making a brand new sound mod, which would be separate from this mod. perhaps I could show you the sounds I've made and, if you like it, you could make a version of this with the sounds?

@Ryuji, there is , you can look at left 4 dead 2 guides by searching "modify addon sound", you need gfscape + audacity + vpk.exe ( source sdk ) and be sure your sound have the same lenght and depth of the original l4d2 sound ( 44100 ).

Amazing job!

Is there a way to mod this to change the sound? I've got some Crossbow sound effects I've made that I think sound a lot more satisfying then the ones currently in this.

Till then.. But for now, a Sub and +1 ;)

@ The Assange,Ty, it is possible but could bring some other problem if changed, so not at this pointt to be honest, or maybe if an other version is uploaded :)

Looking at the last picture that was uploaded, is there anyway that the crossbow doesnt go through the floor at all? Anyway, this model really looks good!

Pictures updated ! :)

Thks everyone, i'm planning more texture alternative soon.
If you have some idea, you can submit here and i'll think about it :)

Wow, it's cool!

@Ramm.asmiette that is true but what i was thinking was the reload animation to be there after you shoot and not a completely different animation because the reload is perfect for what i was thinking

wow

its awesome! but i think it needs a new texture version, more like Daryl's xbow...

@ TeriyakiSniper, I think for more realism effect , the reload animation would be enterly different.
In real life you need to drop the crossbow on floor or smthg and then use mechanism to reload.
But it's for l4d2 so it needs to be faster :)

Hey, i think it is good but i dislike the fact another arrow appears out of no where and i understand why it is like that, but i think an animation that can be cancelled by shooting should be added for a more realism type effect
