WARNING: USEING L4D MAPS IN L4D2 WILL TRIGGER A STATS RESET. FURTHERMORE IT WILL BUG YOUR STATS ASWELL, BY MAKING YOUR WEAPON STATS WEIRD AND REMEMBERING HOW MANY GAMES YOU PLAYED, BUT SAYING YOU SURVIVE NO TIMES AT ALL.

Do you have to have the preordered version to get the baseball bat in these maps?

Yes you have to have the DLC for L4D2 from preordering if you want the bat to spawn.

Made a batch script which uses the symlink feature of Vista and 7 so you don't have to have duplicate copies of the VPK files (once in Left 4 Dead 1 and once in Left 4 Dead 2).

Just extract zip in left 4 dead 2\left4dead2 folder and run.

Yea better uninstall and reinstall then...it looks long and complicated as is atm. I'll wait till there's an easier method...and the bugs have been mostly ironed out. A bit off topic...but could original left 4 dead sound mods be used for this game?
