No, it’s not a joke, and no, we don’t really hate mountains. “I Hate Mountains” is the name of a Left 4 Dead 1 & 2 campaign made by three French friends. Be aware that this campaign is built the Valve way, we are not trying to revolutionize anything, we just want to provide more content to this awesome game. The campaign is divided into five different maps, just like Valve did with their own campaigns in Left 4 Dead 1. The difference is that ours is entirely nature-oriented, there’s only a few building and most of the action takes place in outdoor environments, which is a challenge to build in itself. We also focused our development on offering a better re-playability by providing several long alternate paths in the levels that can totally change the way you play it.
After more than one year in the making, here's the first full version of the I Hate Mountains Left 4 Dead campaign. This version only works with Left 4 Dead 1. See the README.txt file for more informations.
# I HATE MOUNTAINS
# LEFT 4 DEAD 1 CAMPAIGN
# VERSION 1.1
Any computer that can run Left 4 Dead campaigns should be able to run I Hate Mountains decently. We'd recommend that your computer specifications slightly exceed what's recommended for Left 4 Dead since our campaign is a bit greedier in some places.
Recommended configuration :
How do I install this campaign?
Before you install, please make sure you have the Steam Client installed along with Left 4 Dead 1. Also make sure the game has been launched at least once through Steam. Then, all you need to do is to extract and/or move the ihatemountains.vpk here:
...\Steam\steamapps\common\left 4 dead\left4dead\addons\
To successfully see our custom visual effects:
Temporary disable any custom campaign you may have installed except I Hate Mountains because they can overwrite themselves pretty bad due to engine limitations. To do this, go to Menu > Extra > Add-ons and uncheck the checkboxes near each content. This only include waterfalls, rotor wind, sprinklers rain and such, but plays a huge role in immersion.
To successfully hear our custom sound effects:
Type snd_rebuildaudiocache in the game console in order to rebuild the game sound cache and include our sounds into it. This only include ambient sound, but plays a huge role in immersion. To learn how to activate the game console, follow the following link:

To successfully see our hints:
Because it can be quite intimidating to survive the first tries, enable the game instructor in Options > Multiplayer > Game Instructor and then, type gameinstructor_reset_counts in the game console to reactivate all the help messages.

How do I uninstall this campaign?
Simply delete the ihatemountains.vpk located here:

During the development, there's a few things we had to accept and among these is the fact that not everything is possible in a Left 4 Dead campaign. Because of this, there's a few problems we are aware of but can't fix or didn't had the time to fix before release. Here's a little list just so you guys know what's going on.
