Reze over Calico — Calico skins for Deadlock
IMPORTANT NOTES : Installation : Download either Human or Bomb file, do not install both. Human Reze transforms during ultimate only. Do not download archived "Ability3_Mouse" file if you intend to play as Reze, do not download archived "Reze" file if you intend to play Deadlock. If you're having issues, it is most likely you have unnecessary/outdated files still installed. Any bugs to report or any help needed? Send screenshots and/or details about it in the comments here below, on Discord (Deadlock Modding Discord, Reze's Thread) or in DMs. A.I has ONLY been used to clear Reze's voice from the background noises, it didn't generate anything or helped me in any other way. Other Notes: If you want to remove something specific about this mod but keep other modifications, isolating files can be done easily on your end using Source2Viewer: - "maps" are the Select/Shop/Endgame screens. -"Materials" & "particles" are skills visual effects. -"models" are models. -"panorama" are pictures such as skill/hero icons & skills/typo colors. -"scripts" & "soundevents" are voicelines behavior/volume etc. -"sounds" are voices and abilities sounds. Every voicelines are replaced, but a lot were added as well. I didn't add everything in the new "Dialogue Player" yet, so you'll have to experience some of them in game. I do not plan to add english voices, sorry.
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 Calico 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 Reze over Calico?▾▴
.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 Reze over Calico 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 686,123 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 Reze over Calico?▾▴
.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.
