Best L4D2 Mod

Could you add a feature that enables the usage of folders? So by using this, I'd be able to make folders for addons (like vanilla/goofy ones), and enable/disable them in groups? That'd be cool

The reason I updated the add-on list in the first place is because the previous one will cause huge overlapping issues of the add-ons themselves once you reach a certain limit. It will look like either of the following images without this update:

I am not, as it seems that it's only a problem on 16:10 resolutions, not 16:9, which is what most people use. What you can do is unsubscribe from this add-on, then subscribe to this:
https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=940974914
Finally subscribe back to this current add-on for the other changes if you want. That way the add-on list will load the one that works for your resolution before this one.

Well it's not overlapping, but are you going to fix the issue?

You can try setting the resolution to a 16:9 aspect ratio (1600x900 should work).

That's okay, it's not just this mod, other mods that expand the addon-list like that also have the same problem

It can't be a hard fix

I see. I recently updated the add-ons menu and it must not scale well to resolutions that aren't 16:9. However, I will send you a friend request and I can send you the build before I added the new add-ons menu so you can still use the old version.

Screen resolution is 1680x1050, it just happened all of a sudden I hadn't gotten a new monitor or anything

Can you take a screenshot of it and tell me your screen resolution? The add-ons browser should look like the second picture up above.

Don't know why but the addon browser is broken with this one, the addon thumbnail is going over the addon list and I can't use the scroll bar until I've scrolled past enough with the mouse wheel

It is functional, give it a try.

Even though there's no updates, is it functional? I'd like to give it a try.

Update this mod. Please remove the OK and Cancel dialogue because it's buggy and most dialogues in Left 4 Dead 2 only have OK as an option. Can you release a version with everything but the custom addon browser? I like the vanilla browser better.

@M!dn1ght Checkout Nucleuscoop. It'll even let you use separate monitors for each players.

In split-screen, is there a way to have player 1 use mouse and keyboard, while player 2 uses a controller?

Oh yes, it finally fixed the button location, thanks for the fix!

Thanks, I will check and let you know if that update fixed it

Just put out an update that should fix the bug you reported.

@Roon: Thank you for the report. I am not actively working on this anymore but I will try to fix any bugs such as the one you posted when I have time. I did have some additional ideas about formatting that I may include when I have the time to work on it.

Is this addon dead? There is no updates since April... It's almost 7 months since last update...

By the way @Olde if you are alive, can you fix the View workshop button misalign issue?

Also this bug seems to apply on all variants of Menu UI Update

Yes, message me on Discord and I'll send it over.

could you give me a link to the previous version with the older addon menu? I have a font mod that keeps cutting off alot with this new one.

Oop, forgot to say in the last comment, thank you for the addon and thank you for reading. Hope you have a good one.

The game mode list when changing the game type of an already created game needs updating. L4D1 Survival(and maybe more mutations) don't appear on the list.

not working

Just booted up and saw the fix! Appreciate you getting to it so fast!

@T-POSE: This has been updated to include Versus Survival. Scroll past Survival to see it. I just tested it and it shows up for me, so check to see if you don't have conflicting add-ons or re-subscribe to this add-on to see it. As for the Single-Player box, I probably won't be removing it. I may remove the single-player option under the Campaign drop-down menu eventually though.

Yep. It's missing vs Survival and the single player box needs to be removed.

I think this needs updating for the Last Stand Update...

Can you make it compatible with Urik Game Menu Xmas/Winter Version?

Sorry about that dude, but thanks for letting me know that 4:3 users aren't seeing it optimally.

Makes sense. I really want to get myself a widescreen one, it is very convenient for just about every activity.

I only have a 16:9 monitor and I figure that most gamers do, too. As such, this mod is optimized to work for that. I don't have a 4:3 monitor to test this on so I can't see how to adjust this to work on 4:3.

Is it not exactly 4:3 friendly? The addon manager looks great, but the addon campaign select screen chops a couple of letters off. At least on 1280x960.

Managed to fix it...I think. The material that calls that texture is vgui/searching_animation.vmt
The texture it calls for is 1/1.vtf, which is the blank replacement texture for the heartbeat. Moving it from 1 to vgui and updating the path in the VMT seems to have fixed it. Guess the game doesn't like looking for textures in that folder since it can interfere with certain boolean cvars. Or maybe it's just a fluke, I dunno.

Keep reminding me; I'll look into it when I have some time. In the meantime, let me know what other mods you're using for your menus.

Update to my issue: the missing texture is actually supposed to be the heartbeat monitor loading texture that is for some reason being replaced by the addon's addonimage.jpg.
The actual slot for the non-existent image is showing up blank as it should, but something is overriding that heartbeat monitor texture.

I'm having an issue with this particular implementation: on the addons menu, the image used as the addon preview shows up as a block of missing texture fallback if the addon doesn't have addonimage.jpg in the root of the VPK, whereas previously it would just show nothing. Workshop mods are unaffected, but mods not from the workshop don't always have this image and are a bit more susceptible.
