Rainy Menu Backgrounds

Description
This mod replaces the video that plays in the background of the menu with a relaxing rainy forest, with darkened colors that fit the tone of the game.

It features 5 loops, each 30 seconds long, standard 720p resolution, guaranteed to avoid any display issues. Minor enhancements have been made to the original material.

███ IT HAS TO BE INSTALLED MANUALLY, I'M JUST HOSTING IT ON THE STEAM WORKSHOP ███

Steps
1- Subscribe to this addon, then open and close the game.
2- Go to (L4D2 folder)\left4dead2\addons\workshop. You can easily find the game's folder by right clicking the game on your library, then going on Properties > Local Files > Browse.
3- Find the mod, identifiable by its thumbnail (the file's name should be "1974609568.vpk") and extract the video files. You'll need GCFScape[nemstools.github.io] or a similar program to open it.
4- Go to (L4D2 folder)\left4dead2\media.
5- Replace the video files with the ones from this mod.
6- Unsubscribe, or you'll be wasting 200MB and preferably rate it before doing so.

If you forget to back up the original backgrounds, they can be easily re-downloaded by right-clicking the game on your Steam library, then going on Properties > Local Files > Verify integrity of game files.

who the hell wants rain sounds

Could you make one the same but without sounds? the sounds are a bit annoying when you are looking at something in the background

btw this works well for people backing down thinking its sketchy but its really does work, just why did you add rain sfx it sounds annoying
Bert from Acounting 30 Aug, 2022 @ 6:42pm

you should just put the converted BIK videos on a google drive instead of making people download and extract shit.

nvm, for anyone wondering what to do, you have to go into the addons folder and actually DRAG the addon file over the vpk.exe file, it should say "open with vpk". if you dont have a vpk.exe you can just download it from the internet or someone else and move it to /Left 4 Dead 2/bin
