First off thank you for choosing to download my skin pack.

Remember to always back up originals.

To install the skins just simply drop the pak01_dir and materials folder in your
Steam - Steamapps - Common - Left 4 Dead - left4dead folder.
It will ask you if you want to replace. Just Click yes to all, don't worry it won't replace anything important it will only add the custom files.

The pak01_dir however will replace the original so make sure to back that up incase you ever want to go back to defaults.

The skin is ready to use as is, so long as there hasnt been an update between 07/22/09 and the day you downloaded the skin. Information below tells you how to fix a broken skin due to update.

VERY IMPORTANT PLEASE READ INCASE OF AN UPDATE.

I have included the pak01_dir file as of July 22 2009. If there is any updates the skin will not work. I have also included hex editing program, so should there be an update and the skin stops working. Take your pak01_dir file and open hex program, drag the file into hex. 

When in hex press Ctrl+F find bill_color "bumpmap". Replace the B with T. So it should now read till_color.

You will need to edit 2 lines for Bill;
       bill_color "bumpmap"
       bill_color "bumpmap"

Go back to the top of the hex and press Ctrl+F again. This time find bill_head. Replace B with T. It should now read, till_head.

You will need to edit 2 lines for Bill
       bill_head   $ compress
       bill_head_compress   $stretch


This should get your skin working again. Thanks again for chosing to use my skin. Knowing there's others out there that are enjoying it as much as me makes me happy :D
