This mod has so many features that I wish we're there own separate addons.

I Really enjoyed using this, it was like a first person version of project zomboid, and I think that it does better than every other collection mod pack, or mutation in general in enhancing the scary factor of the game.

This really immersed me in the world, every bullet counted, I had to strategically maneuver the map in ways I hadn't done before just so I didn't get myself killed.

and I think the funniest part is, I hadn't even completed a single campaign with this enabled, I got to the finale on each one, but in the end I got overwhelmed, or I died by shooting a propane tank..

a great mod overall, can be rough around the edges sometimes..

yeah c: contact me on steam or discord so I can send

Hey man, I really like this mod, but is there any way you could make separate version just for the slot edits?

Try restarting L4D2 after enabling Dark Days or after you disable other mods it makes sure certain mod files fully enable/disable

I don't know why but my game kept crashing whenever I try to play Dark days mutation...any tips??

I have been unable to work on Dark Days due to severe debilitating health issues :c
I've been working towards recovery for a long time but when I make it there one day I will continue the work on this mod
It hasn't been abandoned and I will always be here for it's community in the meantime c:

In the event I'm no longer around, I have added someone as a co-creator to inherit this mod and its Discord who will care for its community and hire developers for its continuance

no intention of stopping

i like it could u do just a hud remover?

Dark Days has this feature built in type !specials off in the chat to disable specials
you can also type !help to view other settings Dark Days has

Anybody know a special infected remover that works with this?

me and my friend had really fun time with Dark Days, looking forward to seeing the development

hey i've uploaded some videos with all favorite mods combine with Dark Days!

thanks

when I first tested I had only Dark Days, XDR base and the walker mod enabled then restarted the game before playing

If nothing you've tried will work you could try deleting the "Infected" folder located at
dark days.vpk > Root > Models it contains stuff for better ragdolling and more precise combat hitboxes it might cause a load order conflict with XDR base

i've tried, maybe it was other mods i had, thanks for letting me know, i'll try one by one

I've been testing Dark Days with the walker animation mod but they are working fine together I'm not sure what could be wrong :c

Have you tried restarting your game after enabling all the mods you want to play with? Sometimes things with mods can fix by restarting the game after enabling or disabling mods

good to know, might as well make it compatible with Cuba's walkers mod? or at least make a small patch to the current one. I've tested Dark days with Walker CI mod and the animation didnt play at all but the zombie's speed was greatly reduced

I've been away from the mod for a long time due to severe health complications but I've actually been planning to work on it again since yesterday c:

I might re-make the mod from scratch because I didn't even know how to mod for L4D2 or the coding language when I first started this mod

is this mod still in progress?

@Cap'N Snuggles
What is the console command name for this mutation mod?

mod was disabled and issue fixed, little weird but it works, thanks.

some changes from mutations can only revert if the game is restarted with the addon disabled
this might be the issue

theres a weird issue where even outside of the mutation (which all of the features should only take place in) it disables my hud completely besides my healthbar, pills, throwable at the bottom.

can you please make some of the changes seperate add ons like ledgegrab and less ammo and stuff like that

What happen if i got Connection Problem 10 times ?
Please HELP!

the knife sucks lmao

ngl everything feels like shit, i got screwed over because i couldn't fucking pick up the ammo i just placed down, wtf

to the person below me. I actually quite like the crosshairs it adds some challenge and skill to the game, it wouldn't really be a hardcore mod if you had perfect aim.

not sure why everybody talks about the crosshairs so much

i understand the need to not have a crosshair, but maybe allow it like a command? For example "!crosshair" to activate it, also adding a command to turn off random hordes in the infected gamemode would be good, since i like killing the zombies in any place instead of the head but hate the random hordes for example.

My friend and I played the shit out of this mod when we found it. Very challenging and scary, I enjoy how it turns the game into more of a survival horror with the limited resources and tougher infected. I did experience a few bugs like; weapons disappearing (happened only twice), stuck crouching at start (can be fixed if downed and revived again), and some other more minor stuff- but overall I think it was def worth the play

Its a good mod however i would like it if you could make it so i dont have to unsubcribe so my game goes back to normal and isnt in a constant state of realism while im playing offline even when i dont have it active

For new players who stumble upon this mod, it changes the whole L4D2 experience into a whole different game, instead of it being arcadey, it's more of a horrific apocalyptic survival.

if the shotguns are silent it's because the mod's scripts aren't activated which usually happens from people playing on campaign instead of mutation

"From the main menu click "Mutations" then "Change mutation" then select "Dark Days" -- (if playing with friends set "server type" to "local server")"

sorry for such a long wait everyone :c but internet is back and updates will finally resume

the shotguns does not come out of the shots

I hope everything works out for you,
this mod has potential

I'm sorry you didn't enjoy it :c the mod is in a very broken condition right now especially with movement speed bugs but I haven't been able to do anything to fix it because I've been without internet for months and still am (I'm posting this through a phone)
I will work to fix the mod mod as soon as I get internet the color scheme is also being changed as apart of the next update

I don’t know why everyone likes it so much, it’s such a stupid mode for me
Justified: the color scheme is set up terribly, everything is gray and as if in a fog, zombies run without heads, all actions are slow, running from zombies will not work. Why can't you run when your life is at stake?
The worst thing is when you fall and you can't shoot
I like mods like this but not this (( sad

my only guess as to how biles could be on the floor would be the bots dropping them from the mod kicking them at the start of the game but the biles should be getting deleted

biles were repurposed into a makeshift "holster state" for the player to use but bots have it to this state was required for a lot of the scripts I was creating and to prevent vanilla bugs
I was going to use the defibrillator instead but animations didn't look right I am currently trying to work with an animator to fix temporary banaids like this

thanks for leaving feedback I haven't gotten around to re-balancing the weapons yet especially the new csgo ones so all the weapon stats are default except ammo and slots
I will push working on an overhaul for the weapon stats higher up in the priority list

Does anyone else having problems whenever you spawn there are biles on the floor and I can't throw my bile? Or is it just me.

would be nice if you buff their damage up, to compensate for the disadvantages i posted above.

i finally got my hands on the sniper rifle aka the Scout versus the AWP ,and my biggest complain is that they have puny damage compare to what i was expecting. Really, even now they are still a sht show in vanilla, and i thought you would give these guns some advantages over their long reload time and slow fire rate, but nah, these are still worse than a hunting rifle. heck, its even worse than the Magnum if i dare say so myself

easily the most realistic l4d2 i've ever played.

everytime i try to play this mutation my FPS drop to 10 idk why

sounds like you have the addon enabled but aren't activating the mod properly
from the main menu click "Mutations" then "Change mutation" then select "Dark Days" instead of selecting campaign

the shotguns are silent

hey if you want to discuss any modding stuff you can find me on discord through the dark days discord [discord.gg] :D

(if you hold down 'tab' you can actually view the health/items of you and your team but currently I'm still adding a way to check ammo
to help keep track all weapons currently have enough ammo to reload 6 times)

Thanks 'Old america' for bringing their mod to my attention.

After some rounds done, I can say I like 'Dark Days' very much.
I really enjoy such challenging designs with cool ideas. Maybe I can say I didn't love the forced HUD removal, as not knowing the HP/items/ammo makes it harder to start. But it is a design choice that many people love, of course.

As the creator of the 'True Dead' mutation, I am happy to see a similar mod that seems to share most ideas I had when I was creating my mod. I see many awesome concepts you added in your features list, some of which I too wanted to add in my mod. But I ended up scrapping them because of my lack of time, or knowing they would be too much for the community at the time. Although many users may not read it, you solved this with a detailed post to explain the new features.
You also handled the removal of features, like specials or AI interactions very well. Your fixes feel very natural, which, I know, isn't easy.
