Blackmore Academy Vindicta — Vindicta skins for Deadlock
Vindicta in a Blackmore Academy uniform! Original concept by @EdibleGinger !! I made sure to get their permission before making this mod and they were even kind enough to do UI portraits for it! they're extremely kind and talented and I'm very grateful, please support them! :D I'm not 100% happy with how I did.. it's missing stuff like the soul container chain on the skirt and the rigging is a lil messy but it's 95% of the way there so here it is! ((im horrible at finishing projects, so its better to post it than having me procrastinate forever...)) ill update it if i get around to tweaking it :] My Discord: Yearlu My Tiktok: @sillyfunnymonkeygif (if you're curious about commissions OR just have a general modding question! im always happy to help!)
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 Vindicta 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 Blackmore Academy Vindicta?▾▴
.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 Blackmore Academy Vindicta 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 7,006 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 Blackmore Academy Vindicta?▾▴
.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.
