This post is to announce the beta release of my Left 4 Dead 2 XBOX 360 addon converter following my previous post about getting Left 4 Mario working on console. I would like to introduce the console modding community to my OPEN SOURCE project: Leave 2 Converter!
This converter can convert campaigns, texture and model replacements, sound replacements, and simple vscript replacements. It is quite capable, but again it's a beta so there's a lot it cannot do. But I wanted it out there to further the community. Not only can it convert though, it can also patch your DLC content directly into your game! No more internet before loading DLCs!
But what if you have a converted mod that you don't want to use all of the time? Don't worry, this converter can patch your game with its sister development: Leave 2 Loader! Leave 2 Loader is a custom addon package loader system for the game that implements the addon menu system from PC! So now you can toggle which addons you do and don't want to load, which can help save on that precious 512mb of RAM.
If you'd like to try out Leave 2 Converter, then please find the link to the github post HERE
Now for the bad news. This converter does require Dino D-Day and it's SDK package. That can run you about $10. But that won't be forever! This release is the Vanilla flavor, but I'm currently developing the Chocolate flavor which will be completely self contained. It will be free and open source as well, so no money required. That will likely be out at the end of November. And by February of next year, I plan to release a Neapolitan flavor which will patch The Last Stand and it's updated engine into the game!
This converter is my project and mine alone. I have no connection with anyone who's released their own tools for modding the game.
Future iterations of this converter and other flavors of it will not be announced on here, so keep an eye on the Github project if you want the latest features!!
