Deadlock Vietnamese Translation (Việt Hóa) — hud for Deadlock
Deadlock, in Vietnamese. A complete Vietnamese translation of Deadlock's interface, written to read like a real Vietnamese game rather than a word-for-word machine job. Item and ability names are given proper Vietnamese names in the style of League of Legends Vietnam, while the meaning stays faithful to the original. What's translated: - Menus, lobby, match flow, shop and Settings (including the keybind and options screens). - All items, with their descriptions and stat labels. - All hero abilities and upgrades. - Accolades and patch notes. - Search boxes work in Vietnamese, with or without accents (typing "bang dan" finds "Băng Đạn"). What stays in English: - Hero names (the same way League of Legends keeps champion names). - Voice-line subtitles. Fonts included. I saw the other mod didn't have the proper font and there were box marks or missing characters all over everywhere so I just wanna make a mod that translate into Vietnamese.
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 Deadlock Vietnamese Translation (Việt Hóa)?▾▴
.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 Deadlock Vietnamese Translation (Việt Hóa) 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 10 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 Deadlock Vietnamese Translation (Việt Hóa)?▾▴
.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.
