This might have gotten old, and is a bit outdated as well, but the mod has been updated... The reason I didn't overwrite the original No Special Infected Mutation mod is because this one changes a bit more than just removing Specials... It not only gets rid of them, but it gets rid of any possibility that they can force a spawn, disables mobs, and makes temporary health always be there (it never ticks down). As usual, I will leave the game mode listed below...

"map <MAP> nospeczombs2"

So everyone, I'm working on a BIG project. This project is pretty much going to be the last No Special Infected style mod since I've released every possible version I can (without doing Versus but well, what would be the fun in Versus without Special Infected?). This new mode I won't speak of too much, but it's going to make you only able to carry at maximum, two extra magazines of ammo (or shotgun shells), equals out damage for all difficulties (for stuff like fire to be more damaging), and it will have an infection system. Now hear me out because this is the main thing in the new mode, the infection is going to make the game a lot more challenging. When you get attacked by a zombie, your health instantly becomes "Temporary Health" like you filled up on Pain Pills. Now, your health will tick down sort of like in Bleed Out. The Medkit will still be a thing, and so will Defibrilators, but the Medkit will only increase your health (unless it refuses to work as planned, in which case I will remove it entirely), Pain Pills will raise your health by a smaller amount, and Adrenaline will be what sets your health back to normal, acting as sort of a vaccine... At the moment (as of writing this description), the mod is broken. The mod keeps letting everything work like normal, and not as scripted to, but when I get a version close enough to what I want it to be, TRUST me, I'm going to show off that work as it is the biggest thing I've made so far, and is definitely my prized mod... Everyone, you will forget about normal Co-op mode. You will forget about No Special Infected. You WILL forget about Survival as this... this is going to completely change how the game is played...

Also is it possible to get a solo version of this with no bots?

Some maps are still able to force specials to spawn such as Devil Mountain and Dead County V2

no i meant as an actual shield not a melee, the riot shield is usable but its just a melee weapon and doesnt actually block or reduce any damage, so far i havent seen a mod for that

I am aware of the riot shield's existence, that said, the reason it doesn't appear in the list is the same reason you can't get a tonfa in certain campaigns, each one has an individual list, effectively what those unlockers do is add it to the list, as they did for the CS knife back in the day. That said, Vscript is complicated, like I said, and is a bit hard to find documentation on, but I could've sworn there was a mod already that made the RS usable. I'd check GameBanana if nothing else. That's got a whole new world of L4D2 mods for you to check out. :)

completely unrelated but you did say you were an experienced programmer, is there any chance you could, idk, make the riot shield functional? and by that i kind of mean it block damage while held

the riot shield is a secret melee weapon thats not actually included on the melee list, but is locked unless you get a unlocker mod

idk it probably is a huge stretch but that would be awesome if you could pass it to someone willing to do it or something.. but i understand if its not possible for you to do

In theory? I would totally make more variants of it that feel better, more uh... "realistic?" When I was making the Realism Collection, I included one in a pack known as Real Infection. It was a HEAVILY modified infection versus mode without, well, versus, or specials at all, felt kinda like this mode mixed with the OG NSI (by that I mean, the pain pills still caused your health to go down like the original automatically, but there are no automatic mobs), and needing to scavenge for food and water like Stranded. If there was better documentation, I'd TOTALLY make more varied modes and keep the ones I've got already going and up to date, but, even as an experienced programmer, what little info there really is about making Mutations for Left 4 Dead 2 makes it unbelievably difficult. That and... well... I lack internet at the moment and my SSD is taking a crap (I legit have it held together by duct tape right now) so that's not helping. lol

It still works, guys, lol. Also, Pegasis, would it be possible to get one more version of this mod, but to just make it where the infected can only be killed with headshots? Making it somewhat of a Dawn of the Dead(2004) style game?
