Description
This mod is a modified version of "Homemade Sentry Turret" ( https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1742953520 ) by Rectus. I modified it so that it now replaces baseball bat. So, in other words, as long as a campaign has baseball bat, no matter if it's an official campaign or custom campaign, it will spawn.

Animated image preview:


Some changes:
  • Replaces Baseball Bat Baseball bat is replaced by this one (but actually it's still a baseball bat).
  • Laser Shot: Now it shoots laser that burns zombies.
  • Infinite Ammo: It has infinite laser ammo.
  • 360 degrees of horizontal & vertical rotations: As it has a floating turret, now it can shoot zombies from any directions
  • Deployable on any kinds of ground: Now it doesn't require flat grounds to deploy.
  • Longer range to deploy: Now you can deploy it slightly farther.
  • Impact Resistance: It won't be thrown away easily when there's explosion or impact nearby.
  • A cfg file to configure zombie aggro range on the sentry turret.


As this mod is now a standalone mod, it no longer requires "Custom Weapon Base" to make it work properly. So, just enable this mod, & sentry turret will be ready to use. To spawn it, just type "give baseball_bat" on console, & this one will spawn instead.

Have fun.

@Sultan Abu Al Pepsi , unfortunately, unlike the gnome turret that uses L4D2 models (so other players can see it without problem), this one uses custom models. So, other players need to have this mod enabled so they won't see the error model.

is there any way to make random players to not see the "ERROR" model ? like maybe force them to automatically download the mod or something?

hmm i never try nor found that mod like that

weel gonna try search it for test

@L_M , if you use a mod that spawns pitchfork in all campaigns, you may try to change the mod position in Addon Menu. Make pitchfork mod load earlier than sentry floating turret.

im using admin system mod and yeah it can

but looks like its incompitable with update melee like pitchfork and css one

idk maybe the admin system is bad cant call it because its work fine when i test it at tumtara map but when i try play normally it didnt spawn the turret

maybe must use sv_cheat to spawn it
kurochama  [author] 20 May @ 4:54pm 
@L_M , did you also try to spawn manually via "give itemname" on console. For example if you replace crowbar with sentry: give crowbar.
In fact I never encountered this spawn rate problem when using this mod, & even with "give baseball_bat" console command, I got sentry anytime I typed that.

im just rename that txt file to what melee i want to convert it, didnt change anything contain of it


well gonna try again maybe im just suck didnt find it :/
kurochama  [author] 20 May @ 4:01pm 
@L_M , the spawn rate should be 100% though, as it replaces any baseball bats. & if you change the baseball bat to other melee, the spawn rate is still 100%. Probably there's a mistake during your process in changing the melee, like for example, you might forget to change the melee model to sentry (if you open "baseball_bat.txt" in the "melee" folder, the model name is not baseball bat but sentry).

hmm why the spawn rate of this turret kinda low like i almost never see it

if i want to edit the rate spawn of it, which code that focus of that?
