[ARCHIVED] Helm's Deep Fix

This add-on is now no longer useful, as SeriouS_Samurai's upload of Helm's Deep -Reborn- is set to private, and therefore cannot be found on the workshop anymore.
I have re-uploaded a cleaned and safe version of the map for you to play instead, you can find it here.

This add-on will not be deleted, due to it being relevant to the whole ordeal surrounding the map, but it no longer serves any function, so you can unsubscribe from it without any problems.

For archival purposes, the remainder of the this description, starting from below the line, is the old description.



Please refer to this discussion for an optimal download order to fix your game!

If you'd like to unlock the paid weapons, check out this mod.

Keep in mind, that this restores the vanilla main menu by valve, so it will conflict with various other UI mods. If you want a mod to take priority over the fix, while retaining the fix's functionality, simply subscribe to that other mod before subscribing to the fix.

A simple mod that fixes the issues that occur when subscribed to Helm's Deep -Reborn- on the workshop, for users who want to keep using the map without the unecessary UI changes.
This fix adds back options that were removed, for example singleplayer, quick-match, and more.

The relevant files were given to me by a source which requested to remain anonymous.
All content has been tested and verified by me personally and any future changes to Helm's Deep will be patched in this fix file asap, so it will always be up-to-date.

The following information comes from a source who wishes to remain anonymous, but who has first-hand knowledge regarding the situation surrounding Helm’s Deep hidden menu changes.
The author of Helm's Deep Reborn, SeriouS_Samurai, was a member of the L4D2 scripting and Workshop Beta team, largely responsible for testing the game and providing feedback, bug-testing, and suggestions for improvement. In a thread he created on the game's forum on Steam, he suggested many changes that he wanted Valve to make before the game shipped. Since all but one of the changes that he requested were ignored, he eventually decided to use his platform as the author of the most highly subscribed add-on to force his suggested changes on the largest number of people's games. If you read the thread, which he later posted to the Left 4 Dead 2 Workshop Beta group, you can see that a number of his suggestions correlate to the UI changes that he implemented into his workhop add-on, Helm's Deep Reborn. Despite warnings that it was immoral to make changes against user's consent or knowledge, he went through with it anyway.

A recent update to Helm’s Deep added many altered resource files with the sole purpose of changing L4D2’s interface to his vision of how it should appear. Removing them from the add-on shows that they are completely unnecessary to the map and serve only to change the menu to his liking. His update corresponded to the increasing reports on the Steam forums that pieces of the menu had mysteriously vanished. Time and time again it was shown that the source of this stress was Helm’s Deep Reborn. This culminated in a Steam thread that explicitly (and perhaps a little misleadingly) stated that Helm’s Deep Reborn contained malicious code. This was the impetus behind our add-on. While we hold nothing against the map or its author, it is our opinion that this behaviour should not be tolerated by the L4D2 community, who deserve to know exactly what they’re getting when they subscribe to a Workshop item.

This add-on was created with the intention of restoring the vanilla look of Left 4 Dead 2 from the unnecessary UI changes included in Helm’s Deep Reborn, and will be updated accordingly if and when Helm’s Deep receives any other update. We believe that L4D2 community members deserve to have control over how their game looks, that they deserve to be able to play Helm’s Deep without sacrificing their menu. Lastly, we hold no enmity to SeriouS_Samurai and we hope that eventually this may influence him to remove his UI changes from his add-on entirely. Thank you for reading.
