Toon Ivy (SOUL ORB FIX) — Ivy skins for Deadlock
Remember that tutorial image from "Learn To Play"? Thats actually a photo, Ivy was on duty when that was taken. Now shes back and ready to rumble! "Toon Ivy" has been a passion project for over a month now, through determination we've overcome the quirks of Source tools just to create lots of new models, custom animations, VFX and more... I ask you to play with SILLY in mind. Here is what the mod features: Custom Ivy model Custom Kudzu Bomb Custom Watchers Covenant Custom Stone Form (randomized for extra cartoon silliness!) Custom Air Drop Custom VFX + minor SFX changes Edited voicelines Custom HUD icons Custom Hero select screen 2.5 ADDITIONS/FIXES Minor VFX changes Minor SFX additions Added Critical/Gloat HUD icons Added custom Ability icons Reworked materials for all assets - NO MORE VEIL PROBLEMS! She looks a little different now though, im sorry! It has to be this way for now. Spent too long troubleshooting all broken things... Thanks everyone for reporting vfx issues so i could track down whats broken, and CF3 for the funny video and visualizing the ult so i could find the last missing particle file And special thanks to my partner MindreGlad for assisting with Ivys gun model and all particle effects ♥ If you want to support feel free to donate on my Ko-Fi . You really dont have to as im doing this for fun, but generosity is of course welcomed- should there be any :) Also…
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 Ivy 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 Toon Ivy (SOUL ORB FIX)?▾▴
.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 Toon Ivy (SOUL ORB FIX) 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 163,533 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 Toon Ivy (SOUL ORB FIX)?▾▴
.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.
