Composite Viscous — gameplay modifications for Deadlock
WARNING: THIS MOD WILL BREAK QUEUEING UNTIL YOU REMOVE IT Changes Viscous's abilities to be a composite of all of their best versions (to the best of my abilities) For example Splatter has 1.9 Spirit Scaling Base and an additional 1.3 Spirit Scaling on T3 AP How to host a private match with your friends: 1. Make sure everyone has the mod properly installed 2. Open the console with F7 3. run 'map dl_midtown' 4. Wait for you to load in and when you do pause the match 5. Select a team and a hero 6. Open your console again and enter 'status' 7. Look for a line that looks something like [A:1:xxxxxxxxx:xxxxx], copy that 8. Other players will open their console and run 'connect [A:1:xxxxxxxxx:xxxxx]' 9. Have them select a team and a hero 10. Unpause and witness the power of the goo
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 Composite Viscous?▾▴
.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 Composite Viscous 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 33 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 Composite Viscous?▾▴
.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.
