Essential improvements[edit]

Skip intro videos[edit]

Use the -novidcommand line argument[citation needed]

Go to <path-to-game>left4dead2media Delete or rename l4d2_intro.bik and valve.bik.

Low Violence/Censored Versions[edit]

Due to censorship laws in countries such as Australia and Germany, versions of the game sold in these regions have no dismemberment, blood spatter, corpses, burning and more.

For Australia, install the Left 4 Dead 2 - Uncensored DLC as the ban was lifted;^[1] for Germany and other regions, use Left 4 Gore.

Make a convenient shortcut to launch uncensored game[citation needed] You may wish to create a script which executes Left 4 Gore and starts Left 4 Dead 2 afterwards. Open Notepad Paste the following and save the file with .bat extension Notes PATH means you need to provide the actual executables folder tree

Split-screen without bezels[edit]

L4D2 split-screen mode was meant to be played on a single 4:3 or 16:9 screen. If you have a different setup, the image could not entirely fit the monitor(s).

L4D2's file which is going to be edited is packed. Minimal hex editing knowledge is required.

Edit split-screen aspect-ratio[3][4] Go to <path-to-game>/left4dead2/ Open pak01_000.vpk with a hex editor such as HxD Look for 'aspect'....'8 by 3' string (offset 0x1C4CCFB, just under hex 73 20 34 78 33) Change it according to your actual aspect ratio divided by 2 Notes Like any other worthy hex editing, original and final file size must remain the same. Therefore if you add or subtract a digit, you'll need to remove or add a character elsewhere too (commented lines are perfect for this purpose) If you are interested to horizontal split-screen aspect ratio, you should look instead for 'aspect'....'32 by 9' string (value should be your actual aspect ratio multiplied by 2) As long as the Valve pak file is modified, it may be impossible to join pure servers

Disable Motion Blur[edit]

Use the +mat_motion_blur_percent_of_screen_max 0command line argument[citation needed]

Field of view (FOV)[edit]

Works in multiplayer

Bring up console Type in console sv_cheats 1; map curling_stadium After map load, type in console script Convars.SetValue('cl_fov', XX) (where XX is the desired horizontal FOV for 4:3 resolution) Additionally, type sv_cheats 0 to turn off the cheats Exit to the Main menu The FOV value is not stored and these steps should be performed every time the game is running.

Console commands[edit]

Games running on the Source engine can utilize Source Engine Console Commands for various tasks.^[8]

Enabling the console in Source games[citation needed] Launch the game From the main menu select Options Select the Keyboard tab Click the Advanced button Check the box next to Enable developer console (~) Click Apply Notes Press ~ to open the console. Some commands may first require you enabling sv_cheats. You can do so with sv_cheats 1. Many servers will not allow you to play with cheats enabled, or will disable them upon entering the server. Users without a US keyboard could experience some problems.

Creating your own CFG (to run multiple console commands together)[edit]

A CFG is a file that contains a list of commands that when run will attempt to execute them all

Open a text editor such as Notepad and type in all the commands you want separating each with a ;

When done save the file as filename.cfg in <path-to-game>left4dead2cfg. To run the cfg file, open the console during the game and type in exec filename.cfgIf you want the CFG file to run automatically, name it autoexec.cfg

Notable Workshop mods[edit]

The game has a huge variety of mods, however, what may be 'better' is subjective and opinionated (so Shrek Tank won't be listed here, for example). These mods help improve the base game, though use them at your discretion.

Graphics

• Improved Blood textures (alternative is Paintball)
• Left 4 Dead 2 HD Remaster - HD texture pack
• Post process disabler (can also increase FPS. Note: This disables the black and white that lets you know you'll immediately die the next time you go down)

UI

• Team Health Counter - Adds numbered HP for teammates.
• Urik Color Icons - Adds color to the black-and-white icons.
• SFKTeam's custom main menu - Makes splitscreen easier.

Audio

• Resident Evil Weapon Sounds (low mid) - Lowers the volume of loud gunshot sounds, but has a glitch with the combat shotgun where there is a very loud static noise after each shot.
• Shut Up Survivors - Mutes some of the more annoying survivors' quotes. Important quotes are left intact.

Gameplay

• Improved Bots (Advanced) - Makes the bots less stupid. The advanced version of this mod is not compatible with SFKTeam's custom main menu mod, but Improved Bots (Simple) is.

Third person support[edit]

An instant mod is 3PS

Input these 5 commands in the console.

Alternate third person which places the player in the center under the crosshair and raises the camera higher.

Pressing F10 will toggle between first and third person. You will have a greater FOV.

Some warnings:

• Some cutscene intros may be angled incorrectly.
• You may see a weird inaccurate weapon shadow.
• The crosshair may be slightly off-center. You can mess around with the 'cam_idealyaw' function to correct this. This isn't usually a hindrance anyway.
• Flashlight glows may be seen at your character's back.
• When survivors heal you, their animations will look glitchy.
• The camera may occasionally see through walls and objects.
• The shotgun will sound very quiet. Try this, however, it may cause online games to crash.
• The motion blur for the fire axe and possibly other melee weapons may look ridiculous. Here's a mod to remove melee motion blur.
• Switching between first and third person in-game may cause the HUD to disappear.
• Dying and entering new areas may revert it to first person.

Useful split-screen commands[edit]

Since Split-screen mode in Left 4 Dead 2 isn't officially supported, there are multiple important key settings which aren't immediately available.

Command	Description
connect_splitscreen localhost [ip-address] 2	Connect to a LAN or Internet server. Direct connections must be allowed
[cmd/cmd2] jointeam (2/3)	Assign selected player (cmd) to either survivor or infected team
ss_map <map-name> [realism/survival/versus/mutation#	Play the selected map in the desired mode
ss_splitmode (0/1/2)	Toggle horizontal and vertical screen split (0 is auto selection)
z_difficulty (Easy/Normal/Hard/Impossible)	Change game difficulty
setinfo name Max	Change player 1 name
name2 Tony	Change player 2 name

Text chat with keyboard in controller mode[edit]

If you play using a controller and want to use the text chat (press Y) online, you must do this.

Edit .cfg file[citation needed] Open the 360controller.cfg file, which can be found in the cfg folder in the installation folder. Make it '//unbindall' at the top. If it still doesn't work, it's possible the bindings were unbound, so go into the in-game control settings and restore the defaults.

Enabling HBAO+ for Nvidia graphics cards[edit]

Use the Ambient Occlusion flag 0x00000014 with Quality or High Quality.

Using Ambient Occlusion flag 0x00000014[citation needed] Download and run Nvidia Profile Inspector. Under Profiles select Left 4 Dead 2. Under Ambient Occlusion compatibility insert the flag 0x00000014. Under Ambient Occlusion usage select Enabled. Under Ambient Occlusion setting select your quality of preference, but in order to use HBAO+ you must use Quality or High Quality. Click Apply changes.

Remove item/character glows[edit]

Some players may wish to remove the item glows and/or character glows since they are unrealistic and makes knowing where other players/items are too easy.

In the installation folder, in the 'cfg' folder, in the 'autoexec.cfg' file in Notepad, add these lines. If there is no 'autoexe.cfg' file, then copy and paste 'autoexec.360' and rename it.

Copy and paste the following lines:

Command line arguments[edit]

See command line arguments on how to use the following options.

Parameter	Description
-w X -h Y	Sets screen resolution (or window resolution if using -window). Example: -w 1920 -h 1080.
-refresh X	Sets your screen refresh-rate (Hz). Example: -refresh 60.
-noborder -window	Launches the game in a borderless fullscreen window (i.e. very alt-tab friendly). This may result in a minor performance loss. If you experience stuttering, disable Windows Aero.
-novid	Skip intro videos.
-high	Sets the game's priority to High.
-autoconfig	Restores video and performance settings to default for the current hardware detected. Ignores settings inside any .cfg files until this parameter is removed.
+mat_motion_blur_percent_of_screen_max 0	Removes motion blur.
