Kyle's Rebalance Mod - All Weapons Patched

Description
This is an unofficial patch for Left 4 Dead 2 that rebalances the weapons with a mixture of buffs and nerfs so everything is viable, unique, and fun to use. The overall difficulty is about the same as vanilla, but this mod provides a more even, varied experience because there aren't any bad weapons now.

You're welcome to upload it if you want! I always encourage mods of my mods. Happy to help :praisesun:

Thanks, Kyle, you're the man. This is my first mod ever, and I am happy about it! Since I altered your files, I won't be releasing them to the public in respect of your hard work; instead, I will spread the word to other people.

It is a straightforward instruction; however, I came across one small problem: my Left 4 Dead 2/bin has no vpk.exe. I was quite panicked, but this thread saved me—someone uploaded their own vpk.exe for others to download (https://steamcommunity.com/app/550/discussions/3/1681441347882945979/) . After I dragged "My Edit' to it, a new "My Edit.vpk" popped up next to the "My Edit" folder, which I created in "Downloads." I dragged it into Addons, and it works flawlessly.

It's possible, but I'm horribly busy right now. Fortunately, it's pretty easy for you to do it yourself. Here's a complete guide from start to finish:

1. Download a program called GCF Scape
2. Open the folder C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/SteamApps/common/Left 4 Dead 2/left4dead2/addons/workshop
3. Drag the file 3338704949.vpk onto the GCF Scape icon to open it
4. Copy all files/folders and paste them into a new folder called "My Edit"
5. Open each .txt file inside "My Edit" and change the numbers next to "clip_size" to whatever you want, then save
6. When done, open the folder C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/SteamApps/common/Left 4 Dead 2/bin and find a program called vpk.exe
7. Drag "My Edit" onto vpk.exe, then find your new file called myedit.vpk
8. Place myedit.vpk inside your left4dead2/addons folder and you're done!

helo Kyle, is it possible for you to make a rebalance mod with accurate to real life clip size?
i am using this clip size mod https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3260608752&searchtext=real+mag and it really adds realism experiences.

Weapon spawns are not affected by this mod. You're experiencing an issue with another mod -- most likely you're playing on a custom modded server without realizing it, or maybe there's a mod you forgot you subscribed to that's causing the issue.

hello @Kyle H. McCloud, excuse my name but I just noticed some flaws on this mod. I think this mod changes the spawner of css guns, except the mp5. The other css guns never at any map at all. The sgg rifle and awp never spawned even the scout never spawned as tier 1 nor with tier 2 weapons in the maps.

@Kyle H. McCloud Wow! That's a really helpful website. I thought you hand-made them. Thanks for this. It will come in handy in the future.

@gloom

Thank you! I figured TF2 stat blocks were the quickest way to get people up to speed on the changes, they were fun to make.

Same here, I was gonna make mine similar to like this. Also, I love the TF2 aesthetic for your balance changes.

Nice stuff! Funny enough I was in the middle of making my own gun rebalance mod for my collection, but I think this will do well
