Frequently Asked Questions
Hello Everyone. My guess is that this topic had to be created from the very start, but better late than never. It's all in the title.

Q: The game crashes to desktop at the 7th chapter (Otherchurch)
A: From my observation, this often caused by Military Sniper Rifle model mods. I recently released an update that addressed the reason why this happened, which should fix this for at least some of you, I have no way to test this myself, because this never happened to me.
This level is poorly optimized and the optimization work will take a very long time to do, a luxury I do not have these days. Neither me, nor the friends I play this campaign with crash on any of the chapters. Check your mods, before playing this campaign

Q: Whenever I join the game I get "string table differs" error
A: This error means that the version of the map on the server you're trying to join differs from the one you have installed. This may happen after a fresh update, because it will take some time for people and servers to get the relevant version of the campaign.
Also make sure you have no other versions of this campaign installed. There are plenty of outdated long abandoned versions of this campaign hovering on gamemaps and one on the workshop. None of them are compatible with this release, except the one listed in the description

Q: I got the key on the 3rd chapter, but still can't unlock the classroom
A: No, you didn't. There are 2 doors that require keys on the 2nd floor, look for another one. Enable hints in the multiplayer options. You'll be told exactly what you're grabbing and using. Check this map to make sure you got the key for the proper door:

Q: Can I somehow affect the ending I get at the end?
A: Not in a legitimate way. The ending is completely random and cannot be affected by any kind of the action you do throughout the campaign.

Q: How this version is different from all the others?
A: Vastly. Unlike the other versions, this one actually has most of the bugs fixed, while also introducing many of Quality of Life improvements like in-game instructor. There is also a couple of new locations that presented in the original game, but were not included in the original release for L4D1 by Leafo for whatever reason. The full log of the most major changes can be found here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/2927231410/3811783264388447129. Despite having little free time, I still want to completely remake Nowhere chapter. Whether we live to see that is an open question
