Sackboy | Rem Skin — Rem skins for Deadlock
Sackboy Arrives in The Cursed Apple! This mod includes: Replaces Rem with Sackboy from LittleBigPlanet Replaces Rem's gun with the Paintinator Replaces Rem's helpers with Sackbots Custom Panorama UI files for Rem Custom MVP and Hero Select vmap files Custom sound effects to replace gun SFX, Helper SFX and 'Tag Along' SFX Credits Sackboy model by u/s10TI (Reddit) Other models by Sony Huge thanks to basilisken, Hoxdulum, NeutralDrift, and Yearlu from the Deadlock Modding Discord for their help troubleshooting , Goldbrella for making the custom Sackboy logo used in the hero select screen and Ahze for help with the cloth chains for the zipper! I highly recommend installing MaxDaBrd's LBP sound replacement addon to go alongside this one, you can find it here: https://gamebanana.com/sounds/80204
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 Rem 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 Sackboy | Rem Skin?▾▴
.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 Sackboy | Rem Skin 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 78,082 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 Sackboy | Rem Skin?▾▴
.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.
