♂ Van Darkholme - Dungeon Master ♂ as LASH — Lash skins for Deadlock
Van Darkholme — Lash Replacement. CITY NEVER SLEEPS is Supported. Available in two versions: Version with ♂ Gachi SFX & Voiceover. Voice lines and custom sound additions for abilities, hero selection, combat and death. RECOMMENDED - Van_Darkholme_WITH_Sounds.zip. Version WITHOUT custom sounds & SFX, just Dungeon Master and Icons - Van_Darkholme_NoSounds.zip. Manual Install Instructions : 1) Download the archive and unpzip the .VPK file into "Deadlock\game\citadel\addons" (Create Addons folder if it doesn't exist). 2) If you are having a file name conflict, then just change the numbers on the .vpk (any number from 01 to 99). 3) ((Only if you haven't done it previously)). Open deadlock/game/citadel/gameinfo.gi in txt editor (DON'T FORGET TO BACKUP IT). Find "SearchPaths" in the file and find lines: {. Game citadel. Game core. }. Add new lines: Mod citadel. Write citadel. Game citadel/addons. So it should look something like this: {. Mod citadel. Write citadel. Game citadel/addons. Game citadel. Game core. }. *Instruction taken from Bikinidicta mod
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 Lash 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 ♂ Van Darkholme - Dungeon Master ♂ as LASH?▾▴
.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 ♂ Van Darkholme - Dungeon Master ♂ as LASH 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 283 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 ♂ Van Darkholme - Dungeon Master ♂ as LASH?▾▴
.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.
