Dunno why, when i see update i deleted old config to generate new one, after that enabled random and is just work :P

i didnt change anything about the random option

Random option work now, thanks.

yes thats right. I was thinking the crash might be because of low CPU power, but what you've got should be more than enough.

I haven't been getting the same crashes as other people so it's harder for me to test them or find solutions since I can't recreate them.

i do hope thats the right thing i gave ya

Procesor is Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700 CPU @ 3.60GHz 3.60 GHz

really just need the CPU model. EG I have a 13th gen i7-13620H

I am not sure which info about the specs could be dangerous to share, as i am not super smart when it comes to things like this.

Would you be willing to accept a friend request so i can send them to you in private, just in case. Privacy n stuff.

what are your pc specs

The game crashes everytime a tank spawns (ive disabled all rng such as meat wall + merassmus along with reskins) and the game still crashes. Using the Tier 2 shotguns and killing few zombies with specifically them crashes the game.







sorry if my english is lacking i am really tired at the moment

whats the issue

for the perks config thingy

levelcap 50

enable_random 0

reset_xp 0

commonxp 10
specialxp 25
bossxp 100

all the bot stuff is set to 0.

i do not know if its just the config or my pc just sucks.

@lukifer - first you need to start a campaign but after that you can close the game and then go to:

Steam\steamapps\common\Left 4 Dead 2\left4dead2\ems\perks

where do i find the config file?

just wanted to say thanks for the mod. we have so many script mods that we are playing basically an upgraded version of l4d2 xD and your mod just make it even more enjoyable.

Yeah I'm gonna fix instagib, just need time to do it

@Geebanger0

Isn't There A Way Like, To Fix InstaGib Too?
If That's Not I Think I'm Fine With That I Love That Addon Otherways

random will override whatever is in the config

Can I random Perks without put number Perks ID into survivors ?

@Geebanger0 , I'm not sure if 1 will take effects but you can try first. I usually put 5-10 on within, as it's still a very small AOE that won't spread to the zombies nearby.

@Kurochama bullet_impact and do a findbyclassname for infected within 1 unit for instance?

Just a small tips. Using "TakeDamage" on "bullet_impact" is safer than "infected_hurt". "infected_hurt" can trigger unexpected damage loop when using "TakeDamage" on it, especially when there are 2 different scripts using "TakeDamage" triggered at the same time. So if the loop is triggered, there's a chance that it will cause crash. Probably you can fix the crash by moving some "TakeDamage" scripts to "bullet_impact" instead.

It seem the randomized perk doesn't work for me, i do not touch any other setting but the "enable_random" 1, i still get "no perk" message.

@Geebanger0

Hmm, I See I See I Tried It Out Without Instagib+ Addon And I Never Experienced Crashes In Chapter 1 Of No Mercy

Before It Was

Right now my plan is to fix the crashes with this mod, but any additional features will be put into a version 2

I did try implementing a reset after each map but it didn’t work, I’ve thought of a new way of doing it though so I’ll have to try that

Awesome mod. Hopefully the crashing can get sorted out regarding some of the perks. One other thing I don't know if someone asked yet. Is there a possibility for perks to reset each map change? I like the chapter or on game restart options, but am wondering if reset after map change is possible. Thanks!

@Mister Gun do you know how to access the config file?

Also yes the instagib mod is likely causing crashes. I think a lot of crashes are a result of perks that work by dealing damage to infected. If the perk is triggered by dealing damage but also has an effect that deals damage, it can cause itself to run infinitely

@Franshish the random option will randomise the perks for all characters regardless of what the config is set to

how to settings this mod ? i don't understand this description.

Not To Confuse You, Coach Nick Ellis Only Have These Perks Except Other Characters I Didn't Set Their Perk ID Yet

@GeeBanger Like I Said, No Perks Were Used On Louis & Zoey Only XP And Levelups I Had My Perk Randomizer Activated In Config For Other Characters Such As, Coach, Nick, Ellis I Only Had These For Activation

Though, I Played Bill A Days Ago Without Perks Given To Him, And I UnFortunately Crashed
I Don't Know If It's This Addon Or That Your InstaGib+Hit Group Going To Test Without That First If I Can


The Perk IDS Are

EllisPerk1: 33
Ellis Perk2: 24
EllisPerk3: 1
EllisPerk4: 16
EllisPerk5: 7


CoachPerk1: 0
CoachPerk2: 60

CoachPerk4 :9
CoachPerk5: 71


NickPerk1: 10
NickPerk2: 8

NickPerk4: 79
NickPerk5: 102

lmao bro became a god tier mod creator only to learn people cant read properly

cool mods however, these are crazy as fuck

try it with rescue closets instead, might be just one of the triggers isnt working

@Geebanger0 come on do you really think i am that ''smart''? XD

But yeah, of course. Dont know why it does not work- i will try later again but my Friend said he had no items at all.

and youre sure the person getting defib'd is the one with the perk unlocked?

@Geebanger0 weird because that seems to not work for me, after getting defib'd the Person only has a Pistol lol

@Knower hate the player not the mod

the disappointment when you try to join an official server just to be met with some local server with this on it

@EVE Back 4 More triggers when you get revived by a defib or rescued from a rescue closet. It gives you a T2/T3 primary, magnum, grenade, and 2 aid items

@Franshish when you get crashes, which perks are you using?

Way better Then Back 4 Blood

excuse me for asking again but what does Back 4 More do? We tried it out a few times but nothing happened after getting rescued or revived?

@Removed. Once you download the mod start a game in l4d2 then exit l4d2 then it should be there in left4dead2 ems files

i cant find the perks/config.txt file

@GeeBanger0 My Problem With This Is That

When I Play As Louis & Zoey With Perk Randomizer, No Perks. (Only Levelups) My Game Suddenly Crashes With Shotguns (x2) Like Chrome Shotgun. I Was Spawning CI (Common Infected) One By One To See If I'm Experiencing Crashes In The First Place And It Did When I Fired The Shotgun

Another Thing Is That, I'm Getting A Crash While Going For The Campaign Progress Too

just a thought, if youre looking to minize the number of questions coming in "how to run the mod" then you might wanna give them a default path for perks, then let them know they can customize later.

that said, thanks for the codebase. 4757 lines of code and 278 of everything else. Also you might wanna give them a toggle for the notifications just to avoid all the complaints about "immersion" lol
