Teammate Item Icons — hud for Deadlock
Teammate Item Icons. In the shop, items that a teammate's item makes partly or fully redundant show that teammate's hero portrait, so you don't buy a second copy of a debuff that doesn't stack. - Red ring: fully blocked. Everything the item does to enemies is already being done by your teammate's item (e.g. a second Bullet Resist Shredder). - Amber ring with a ½ badge: partly blocked. One effect overlaps, the rest of the item still works (e.g. Escalating Exposure: the spirit resist shred doesn't stack, the spirit amp does). - Up to three portraits per card, then +N. Tracked items. Red when a teammate owns the same item (or the linked one): Bullet Resist Shredder (also Hollow Point), Mystic Vulnerability (also Escalating Exposure), Spirit Shredder (also Spirit Rend), Weakening Headshot (also Crippling Headshot), Spirit Sap (also Focus Lens), Crippling Headshot, Hunter's Aura, Healbane, Decay, Inhibitor. Amber ½ when a teammate owns the same item (or the linked one): Hollow Point, Escalating Exposure, Spirit Rend, Focus Lens, Crippling Headshot (vs Weakening Headshot), Disarming Hex, Spirit Strike, Spirit Snatch, Alchemical Fire, Crushing Fists, Stalker, Toxic Bullets, Spirit Burn. Each item was checked against its wiki page and its debuffs in the game data. Items whose debuff stacks per player (e.g. Rusted Barrel) aren't marked. How it works.

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 Teammate Item Icons?▾▴
.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 Teammate Item Icons 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 269 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 Teammate Item Icons?▾▴
.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.
