The Watcher — Rem skins for Deadlock
Lets have a watch... The Watcher features: Custom model + helpers Custom HUD icons Altered VFX Toy squeak sound on Pillow Throw TOASTED ICON ADDON: CLICK HERE Friendly stranger made a Toasted-styled hud icon addon for Watcher! If youd like to use it, you can find it there! Thank you again!! Known issues: Rogue flower VFX when in Tag-Along This mod is a bit smaller than my usual projects, i hope you guys enjoy it anyway! It was born from popular demand so.. I didnt want to drag on for too long♥ As Rem is still fairly new, there may be bugs. I did my best to recreate the model from the files, but i wouldnt be surprised if ive missed something! As always- let me know if you find bugs♥
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 The Watcher?▾▴
.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 The Watcher 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 40,183 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 The Watcher?▾▴
.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.
