RAGDOLL 2.0 - Extreme
How to increase body limit?
Is there a config, command, only dev can do it by adding custom options? Just curious, for a school project.

Apologies for the late response, I am sure it possible but i have no idea where to even start on that my mod is super basic really nothing special. The settings you are refereeing to for increasing the body limit are simply console variables (convars) that control basic script functionalities built into the Left 4 Dead 2 game engine. If you'd like to modify them to increase the ragdoll limit, you can locate my VPK file on your Windows PC by going through your Steam directory. Follow the folder path outlined below:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Left 4 Dead 2\left4dead2\addons\workshop

Once you're in the "workshop" folder, look for a file associated with my "RAGDOLL 2.0 - Extreme" mod. It will likely appear as an icon or thumbnail with a long numerical name (e.g., something like "123456789.vpk"). To find it quickly, you can copy and paste that number into the search bar of the workshop folder. After locating the VPK file, open it using a tool like VPKedit or GCFScape. Inside the VPK, navigate to the "scripts" folder, then proceed to the "vscripts" folder. There, you'll find a configuration file director base addon text.


("cl_ragdoll_limit", "200") // Sets the overall ragdoll limit
("cl_ragdoll_maxcount", "190") // Maximum number of ragdolls allowed on-screen
("cl_ragdoll_maxcount_generic", "180 // Limit for common infected ragdolls
("cl_ragdoll_maxcount_special", "4") // Limit for special infected ragdolls (e.g., Hunter, Smoker)
("cl_ragdoll_maxcount_survivor", "4") // Limit for survivor ragdolls
("cl_ragdoll_maxcount_boss", "4") // Limit for boss infected ragdolls (e.g., Tank, Witch)


You can adjust these values to your preference by editing the numbers within the quotation marks. For example, increasing "cl_ragdoll_maxcount" to "300" then save the file and you are done :)
