Well, okay. Saw the Demo was still hanging around, knew it had "expired" from someone saying so on here, tried it, didn't run, so fuck it! Remove local content, please!
Then I wanted to extract some sounds for Windows events and kicks. I wanted the horn cues (hated foe!), and I wanted the Tank theme. So I launch GCFScape and head for L4D's .gcf files. Error writing C:\DOCUME~1\Fail\LOCALS~1\Temp\Taank.wav (Error: NCF files are indexes and do not contain any file data.) If it's an index, it must be pointing to locations in the VPK files in \SteamApps\common\left 4 dead\left4dead, and I can't figure out what VPK files are. So, unlike Team Fortress 2, Left 4 Dead ain't keeping shit in a GCF file. Goddammit, Valve. I search Google for the error and I find a Facepunch Studios response to it: http://forums.facepunchstudios.com/showt...?t=640563 , which says, "People are getting the files from their steam/steamapps/common/left4deaddemo folder." And I just deleted mine. SON OF A-- Dunno if this would fall under Token NOT's jurisdiction, but I don't suppose someone could see if there are easily identifiable sounds in their not-yet-deleted L4D demo folder and host what I was after, could they? |

If you own the game, all the sound files are in the directory steam/steamapps/common/left 4 dead/left4dead/sound
No need for GCFscape |
