Ultraman Agul over Apollo — Apollo skins for Deadlock

The Blue Giant has arrived at the Cursed Apple, but to preserve his strength from the everlasting night he has taken on a smaller form. Includes custom icons, background and hero selection text, differently colored particles, voice lines for all abilties and unique ability sfx. I didn't change the ability text colors since they're located in the always volatile localization files, meaning constant maintenance if I do that. Until I'm confident I can frequently pull it off then I will add it. I will add more voices from his human host in the future, and adjust certain effort sounds to not make it too repetitive. I might revisit the weight paints on his model as well, it's just that everytime I change something another issue pops up and it's taken a toll on me so that won't come soon. Considering custom ability icons but am unsure what to do. I also wanna make Ultraman Gaia as Lash but I want to take a break from model swapping. Sword model taken from Ryoce , and the Agul model is taken from chaosFerEBIRTH on Sketchfab, which originated from the game Ultraman Fighting Evolution Rebirth. Music and sounds from Tsuburaya Productions.

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 Apollo 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 Ultraman Agul over Apollo?▾
Two ways. With Deadlock Mod Manager, use the Mod Manager button on this page and it downloads and places the file for you. By hand, put the .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 Ultraman Agul over Apollo safe to install?▾
A .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 93 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?▾
No. Deadlock loads mods client-side, so the file only changes what you render. Everyone else sees the default game, in every mode including ranked.
Can I run it alongside other mods?▾
Yes, as long as they change different things — a skin and a HUD work together fine. Two skins for the same hero do not: only one can be applied, and Deadlock picks the lower-numbered file. With pak01_dir.vpk and pak02_dir.vpk installed, pak01 wins and the other does nothing.
Does it still work after the latest patch?▾
A Deadlock patch can overwrite 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?▾
Directly from the author's GameBanana page. deadlocktrade.gg indexes mods and links back; it never rehosts files, so you always get the release the author published.
How do I remove Ultraman Agul over Apollo?▾
Delete its .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.
