in the end there was no way to pass the hardest level I had to put it on the easy one and even so it was luck gameplayer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qh2WIWjWstM&ab_channel=L96A1ArcticWolf

You should be able to play custom maps with the mutation.

can you make the mutation work with custom maps?

Hordes can spawn pretty often if you are playing on a high difficulty. You will know for sure if the mod is disabled if zombies are running at normal speed again
AlphaJonk 16 Dec, 2022 @ 12:13am 
mod is fcked i disable it yet why i see bunch of hordes
RoyDJ 24 Sep, 2021 @ 12:00pm 
actually found the problem, conflicting another mutation.
thank you for making this cool mutation. :steamhappy:
Zombie Hugger  [author] 23 Sep, 2021 @ 11:34pm 
Do you have any other mods installed? Also, what gamemode were you playing on?
RoyDJ 22 Sep, 2021 @ 5:47pm

Thanks a lot, appreciate it! I tried to do it the old fashioned way. This was much more convenient. Once again, thanks a lot, I'mma go and enjoy some L4D2 now! :D

I put together a short 30 second video to show how to start up a game with this specific mutation. It sounds like you're trying to run it like an old fashioned mod from back in L4D days-- L4D2 is much more convenient with Workshop mods.
Ejb 2 Apr, 2021 @ 2:38am 
Thanks a lot man! :3
Ehm, nothing special happens. The mod is installed and I've tried starting it through the consolecommand map mapname zombierealism thingy. The most important part for me is to know if the mod still works for you, so I can continue to test things out! I kinda gave up after trying for a couple of hours yesterday. I might be missing something obvious, since I'm new to modding/using addons for Left 4 dead in general, but it feels like the mod doesnt work atm since I have it downloaded, installed and have tried playing different gamemodes with the mod as an active addon.
Zombie Hugger  [author] 1 Apr, 2021 @ 1:31pm 
I'll give it a look once I'm home tonight and see if I'm having any issues.
What happens when you try?
Ejb 1 Apr, 2021 @ 5:05am 
The mod doesn't seem to work. I've tried uninstalling the game, played in a private online lobby, played solo-singleplayer. Am I missing something? :Man1:
ThatOneGuy 15 Jul, 2019 @ 1:28pm 
Then again,I dont wanna join 500 to see if ONE is realism,test it out.
Zombie Hugger  [author] 15 Jul, 2019 @ 12:11pm 
I don't think you can get that achievement using a mutation. You need to either select Single Player or find/create a multiplayer lobby and play normally.
ThatOneGuy 15 Jul, 2019 @ 6:43am 
I wanted to get an acheivment that has all campaigns on expert,and on realism.
Zombie Hugger  [author] 14 Jul, 2019 @ 8:03pm 
At the main menu
>Mutation
>Change Mutation
>Zombie Realism (or Zombie Realism Normal if you don't want it on Realism mode)
>Select Mutation
>Play With Friends
>Create New Zombie Realism Lobby
>change Server Type to Local Server
>Create Lobby
ThatOneGuy 14 Jul, 2019 @ 7:55pm 
How do you do that?
Zombie Hugger  [author] 14 Jul, 2019 @ 7:52pm 
Not specifically in single player, no, but you can create a private multiplayer lobby.
ThatOneGuy 14 Jul, 2019 @ 7:09pm 
Is this in singleplayer?
Zombie Hugger  [author] 29 Jun, 2019 @ 4:14pm 
None that I'm aware of, but I did notice when playing last week that I needed to unsubscribe and resubscribe, otherewise it wasn't showing up on my list of mutations
Djokaire 29 Jun, 2019 @ 8:42am 
It doesn't work for me, but when I installed this addon before any other one on another computer it worked, does this addon have any conflict with others?
Zombie Hugger  [author] 8 Nov, 2018 @ 6:19pm 
It should work in Single Player as well, but if not, you can always host a private co-op game where nobody is able to join.
Bugget_Noxes 8 Nov, 2018 @ 1:12pm 
Will this mod work on Single Player mode or only co op, survival, and realism?

Ellis is not worthy!
Average Club Penguin Enjoyer 10 Mar, 2018 @ 8:03pm 
I like how ellis is dead is your picture. Sometimes I refuse to have mod pictures of ellis alive.

Looking for people up to the task to play with.
Buster_B 17 Jul, 2017 @ 5:45am 
I really like this. However in some maps there are construction workers and riots. Hence they are immune to headshots, in large numbers dealing with them is like a boss battle. Only explosives or fire can kill them.
Zombie Hugger  [author] 5 Jul, 2017 @ 8:39pm 
Thanks for the compliments, friend. It has been a while since I've even thought about this mutation, but I definitely remember having fun times with the slower paced game play.

As for a stamina on melee, sadly, my brain is incapable of thinking of how to get that a thing.
Goro 5 Jul, 2017 @ 6:27am 
My future suggestion: Would you be able to make a separate addon what'd bring stamina into Left 4 Dead? So people wouldn't just endlessy swing their meele weapons, and they'd have to plan their strategy.
You've done impressive work, and I mean - you really did. It's been a long time since I fully enjoyed a zombie game. The last one was Dying Light, but everything after that... - just huge nope.
My horror set collection that you can use (for extra freaks out):https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=964079246

Also, don't forget to turn down the brightness to minimum! :D
Goro 5 Jul, 2017 @ 6:27am 
Wow! Let me throw up some feedback here, hopefully you still read comments! :)
I'm a great, great post-apo fan, and all I gotta say - this mutation is the best mutation outta entire workshop!
It highly encourages teamwork, and good aim. Everytime I hear the zombies coming at me it freaks the living fuck out of me. I'm trying to get to some closed building asap, lock myself down and barricade the doors, then hold them off. Guess how fucked we are when we are in the open... People think slow zombies are dull, dumb, and uncool. Not in this mutation!
Try to tap headshots when you see about 50 zombies coming STRAIGHT onto you, with countless ammount of them behind.
I kinda like how the meele were nerfed. In vanila game, one slice would put down about 5 zombies. In here, you could only flip them, but you need 2-3 more hits to kill them.
Big Chungy 11 Jun, 2017 @ 1:46pm 
never seen it in regular game but in this one yet, i noticed if i melee a zombie and at the last second the melee comes in contact with its head it counts as taking its head off but does register the damage, i noticed this in regular games with their limbs, a melee in regular game is a 1 hit kill yet I cut off limbs without them dieing. It is in fact an engine bug, my only problem with melee is the contact, I'll swing head level right up against a zombie and the weapon goes right through their head with no contact which irritates me cause I go for the head all the time to smash their head off. Wish there was a mod to help fix the contact of melees.
Zombie Hugger  [author] 11 Jun, 2017 @ 1:34pm 
Yeah, a bug with the engine, Shirley. You'll sometimes see that in a regular game too. Zombies without heads trying to beat you, lol.
Big Chungy 9 Jun, 2017 @ 3:16pm 
cool mod, but idk if it was a bug (i actually thought it was cool) but one of the zombies was missing her head and left arm yet was still walking around....kinda creepy but cool lol
Dingle Dorff 17 Nov, 2016 @ 11:22am 
ok thanks.
Zombie Hugger  [author] 17 Nov, 2016 @ 11:06am 
Might be a bug. I will look into it later today.
Dingle Dorff 17 Nov, 2016 @ 11:05am 
I have been blasting them at point blank, headshot using both mag and shotguns yet they still live... the only thing to kill them is fire for me.
Zombie Hugger  [author] 17 Nov, 2016 @ 9:58am 
You need to shoot them in the head to kill them, Grease Monkey.
Dingle Dorff 16 Nov, 2016 @ 6:40pm 
This and Realistic Realism both have the same problems that they are not killable, even with Realistic Realism having magnums and blasting the full clip on one zombie.
Dusk Holloway 24 Oct, 2016 @ 1:28am 
Can you upload something just with the recoil please? i'd love it if you don't mind, it's ok if you don't tho.
Dusk Holloway 23 Oct, 2016 @ 7:49pm 
Ahem, I f*cking love the recoil. it's a challaneing mutation for sure but the recoil is the top of my list of the thin gs i love about this.
