Dynamo
Black/Gold or Silver Dynamo w/ Icons 8/18 — Dynamo skins for Deadlock
Recolors Dynamo's jacket, pants, shoes, and bag to a light shade of black. Recolors the metal parts of his body (belly, head, hands, wrist and ankle joints, gun, and any other metal to either a darkish shade of gold or silver, whichever one you chose to download. Includes recolored icons These dont look as good as they could, all i did beside change colors was modifying the metal map so all his metal parts actually have some reflectivity. i would need to make a custom rough map within his textures to get the exact shininess that id want which im not familiar with currently Depending on where you are at in the map, the lighting either makes it look real good or it looks like dogshit (mainly the gold one) (All screenshots were taken on the highest settings)
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 Dynamo 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 Black/Gold or Silver Dynamo w/ Icons 8/18?▾▴
.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 Black/Gold or Silver Dynamo w/ Icons 8/18 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 423 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?▾▴
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 Black/Gold or Silver Dynamo w/ Icons 8/18?▾▴
.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.
