Initial release: alpha version 1.0
To install, extract the file, named thedarkparish_av1.vpk, from the .zip archive to:
C:/Program Files/Steam/steamapps/common/left 4 dead 2/left4dead2/addons
Some things should be noted ahead of time about this first alpha version:
- The optimization will undoubtedly be worse than the official campaign, because of the lengths I've gone to open rooftops and other areas for Infected to attack from.
- The weapon spawns in maps 2 and 3 are somewhat broken. For now, expect to find less weapon caches and throwables. This will be addressed in a future update.
- Survival Mode on the bridge in The Parish 5 is broken as well, but can still be played through the console. I intended to open the playable area to the whole bridge, but this has affected Infected spawn rates.
- The Survivors don't speak much outside of the intros in maps 1 and 5. This will be addressed in a future update.
- The placement of weapons and gascans in Scavenge Mode on maps 1 and 3 are subject to change based on player feedback.
- There are some missing ambient sounds, notably for fires.
Revisit Left 4 Dead 2's final campaign with a new, darkened atmosphere. Features reduced invisible walls, altered item spawns, and new dynamic elements. Includes maps for Campaign, Versus, Survival, and Scavenge!

In my opinoin, (sorry dont know how to spell that word) some areas that have light, whould look beter dark, like the bus station. but in the end, this is The Parish done right :)
• A nice and fitting idea for an campaign edit. (+5.0)
• New objects and small areas. (+2.5)
• A new waypoint on map 4. (+2.5)
• original loading poster from the parish (-0 , Doesn't breaks down environment and gameplay)
Conclusion:This is a very interesting campaign edit. Would recommend to everyone who likes playing the original parish.
The cons and pros are based on what's edited and not on what's from the original parish.
I think it's strange someone makes a review about an edit of an official map , and uses the con "I dislike official maps"
This campaign edit looks awesome , i'll go and try it out soon and give a review!
• Eerie Atmosphere
• Interesting Layout Change
• Extra Content is Fairly Good
• Good "Dark" Lighting
• Improvement to the Original Parish
• Still Tedious
Conclusion:The night theme for 'The Parish' suits it very well and is somehow a little a bit more fun, even if it still boring at some parts.
