BEST Rat King Pride Flags — RatKing Flag skins for Deadlock

AI DISCLAIMER: this mod was made with AI assistance. Claude wrote the Python scripts that draw every flag, paint it onto the stock Rat King flag texture and build the files, plus the Blender render scene. No image-generating AI was used: each flag is drawn by code from its public flag design, and the paint texture comes from the game's own Rat King flag. Full credits (flag designers, Valve, Anthropic) are in the Credits section. Replaces the flag on Rat King's banner with a pride flag. Two downloads, same 35 flags: - Torn (rat_king_pride_flags.zip): keeps the stock ripped edges. - Whole (rat_king_pride_flags_whole.zip): the same stock flag model with the rips filled in, so the whole flag shows. Only the flag's color texture changes, painted in the same worn style as the original. 35 flags. Pride (Progress, Intersex-Inclusive). Progress Pride. Rainbow (Classic). Rainbow (Gilbert Baker 1978). Philadelphia Pride. Transgender. Lesbian. Lesbian (5-Stripe). Gay Men (MLM). Bisexual. Pansexual. Non-Binary. Genderfluid. Genderqueer. Agender. Asexual. Aromantic. Aroace. Demisexual. Demiromantic. Graysexual. Intersex. Polyamorous (2022). Polyamorous (Pi, 2010). Omnisexual. Polysexual. Abrosexual. Demigirl. Demiboy. Bigender. Genderflux. Pangender. Bear Brotherhood. Leather Pride. Disability Pride. Install. Mod manager (Grimoire / Deadlock Mod Manager): install the archive and enable ONE f…

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 RatKing Flag 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 BEST Rat King Pride Flags?▾
Two ways. With Deadlock Mod Manager, use the Mod Manager button on this page and it downloads and places the file for you. By hand, put the .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 BEST Rat King Pride Flags safe to install?▾
A .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 275 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 skin?▾
No. Deadlock loads mods client-side, so the file only changes what you render. Everyone else sees the default game, in every mode including ranked.
Can I run it alongside other mods?▾
Yes, as long as they change different things — a skin and a HUD work together fine. Two skins for the same hero do not: only one can be applied, and Deadlock picks the lower-numbered file. With pak01_dir.vpk and pak02_dir.vpk installed, pak01 wins and the other does nothing.
Does it still work after the latest patch?▾
A Deadlock patch can overwrite 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?▾
Directly from the author's GameBanana page. deadlocktrade.gg indexes mods and links back; it never rehosts files, so you always get the release the author published.
How do I remove BEST Rat King Pride Flags?▾
Delete its .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.
