Pick a preset: Passive Only (pak04), Passive + Actives (pak03) or Passive + Actives (No Behavior) (pak05). The preset ticks the same items as the matching filter download. 4. Add or remove items from the shop tabs. The Selected tab shows everything you picked. 5. Click Build & Download . You get a .7z containing one VPK. 6. Extract that VPK into citadel/addons/ , remove the matching filter VPK if you had it installed, and restart Deadlock. Everything is built in your browser. Your files are never uploaded. Only the Popular tab contacts deadlock-api.com. Layouts (pick one): • Standalone : Classic centered HUD. • Standalone + Ammo Buff Notifier : Classic centered HUD with the ammo notifier. Download standalone_ammo_notifier . • Redesign Standalone : Circular, debuff-style passive icons above the health bar. Inspired by Soma . • Redesign Standalone + Ammo Buff Notifier : Circular redesign with the ammo notifier.…
Compatibility
Model replacements are the first thing to break when Valve edits a skeleton, so re-check after each patch. It conflicts with any other mod replacing the same asset — two in the addons folder means whichever loads last wins, and the other one silently does nothing.
Is it safe
It is client-side: the file lives on your machine and other players see the default game. Cosmetic addons have not produced bans, but Deadlock is in active development and nothing about mods is officially supported. Keep a copy of the folder before a patch and remove it if the game stops launching.

Frequently asked questions
How do I install Always Show Passive Items and Actives Icons?▾▴
.vpk into game/citadel/addons and name it pak01_dir.vpk. That folder only loads once gameinfo.gi lists it, which is a one-time edit — check the install guide.Is Always Show Passive Items and Actives Icons safe to install?▾▴
.vpk is a data archive, not a program, so it cannot execute code the way an installer can. The risk is provenance. This one has 1,107,900 installs, so a problem would have surfaced on its GameBanana thread. Mods with almost no downloads from accounts with no history have had none of that scrutiny.Will other players see this mod?▾▴
Can I run it alongside other mods?▾▴
pak01_dir.vpk and pak02_dir.vpk installed, pak01 wins and the other does nothing.Does it still work after the latest patch?▾▴
gameinfo.gi and remove your search paths, which stops every manually installed mod at once — redo that edit and they come back. Separately, model replacements break first when Valve edits a skeleton; recolours and HUD mods usually survive. The author posts updates on the GameBanana page.Where does the download come from?▾▴
How do I remove Always Show Passive Items and Actives Icons?▾▴
.vpk from game/citadel/addons, or toggle it off in the Deadlock Mod Manager library. Mods never overwrite game files, so nothing needs repairing afterwards.
