Feedback

Please give me every honest comment you can make as this is my second skin. If you would like some skin requests you may contact me. If you run into any problems in contact Soapy through private message on FPSBanana.com. Do the same if you have trouble installing the skin.

Installation

1. Download the ZIP file containing the skin.
2. Extract the VTF file from within the ZIP file to C:/Program Files/Steam/steamapps/common/left 4 dead/left4dead/materials/models/survivors/manager/
3. Back up "pak01_dir.vpk" (Location: ...Steam/steamapps/common/left 4 dead/left4dead/
4. Open "pak01_dir.vpk" (preferably Notepad++)
5. Find the line containing the information of the files used to texture Louis.
   • This means hit Ctrl+F and type "louis_color" or and click next twice
   • You should find the following: $baseTexture "models\survivors\manager\louis_color" $bumpmap "models\survivors\Manager/louis_normal"

and

$baseTexture "models\survivors\manager\louis_heax" $compress "models\survivors\manager\louis_head_compress" $stretch "models\survivors\manager\louis_head_compress" $bumpmap "models\survivors\Manager/louis_head_normal"

5. Change it to $baseTexture "models\survivors\manager\louis_colox" $bumpmap "models\survivors\Manager/louis_normal"

and

$baseTexture "models\survivors\manager\louis_heax" $compress "models\survivors\manager\louis_head_compress" $stretch "models\survivors\manager\louis_head_compress" $bumpmap "models\survivors\Manager/louis_head_normal"

• Only the "r" at the end of "louis_color" and "louis_head" are changed to "x", resulting in "louis_colox" and "louis_heax"

• There are two sets of lines that begin with "$baseTexture". Edit both the first/top and second/bottom set of lines.

  6. Save "pak01_dir.vpk"
  7. Close "pak01_dir.vpk" The skin should now show up on Louis in Left 4 Dead.
