- Interneted - GreenYoshi - Witch - Manacat - SkySky199 - Yoru - Nescius - Geebanger0 - And many many, many more incredibly talented modders across the workshop

___________________________________

A core mod for my rendition of Nightmare. This covers the many scripts and balance changes that make the mod what it is.

This is the mod includes:

- All the balance changes for weapons and special infected health and reaction times - Tank damage buffs - Common damage changes - Population balancing for playercount - Struggle to escape specials in solo mode - Starting with the flashlight (tonfa) instead of the pistols - No random hordes - Incendiary and Explosive ammos being replaced with Laser Sights and Ammo - Weapon Dropping - Gun Recoil - Incap Crawling - Realism style glows - Specials knocking your gun out of your hands - Damage taking temp health before perma health - Tanks busting down saferoom doors - Weapon weight - Boomers explosions dealing damage - Defib ragdolls - Limited ammo piles - Slow Motion upon getting headshots / killing special infected - Pipe bombs acting like they did in L4D1 beta (i.e regular grenades) - and More.

Nightmare: Redux is designed as an all in one package, so a lot of this stuff is grouped together on purpose. Unsub at your own risk.
