[Solved] Zombie Drops apparently ignores drop configuration
The issue was another Add-on (the sample mods by the same author) also providing the files that I was trying to edit, thus overriding my changes.

-- Original message below --
Location:
left4dead2\ems\left4fun\cfg\host_zombiedrops_def.txt
My file's contents that was ignored (already renamed files & folders; "data" folder was not even recreated)

- Directory is created but is always empty.

/left4dead2/ems/left4fun/cfg/host_zombiedrops_def.txt
- File is created but even if edited, it is ignored.

/left4dead2/ems/left4fun/data/
- Directory was not created (I recall it being created even when not using the money system before this update)

Are you playing the zombiedrops mod from Left 4 Fun sample mods addon?

That could explain why it is acting up.

Zombiedrops files are used only when l4f_zombiedrops fake cvar is true.

Seems to be the case of the "Left 4 Fun Sample Mods" taking over parts of the configuration.

Might want to put that as a note in that as well as the main "Left 4 Fun" Add-on.
