Hey all,

Found these hosted on Valve's l4d blog page.

They are the ones recommended by Valve so they are a good standard and finished unlike alot of addons.

Playing through them gradually with Faust/Al99/Chaos/Kake.

If you fancy joining in download them and give me a poke whenever you feel like playing!

Unsure how to install the below? Try this guide:

How do I install add-on content?

I came into this world with nothing,
through careful management I\'ve got most of it left.

New version of Back to School v 1.05 Released:

Download here: http://bts-l4d.com/eng/htm_bts/download.php

QuoteСhanges in v1.05
- “Non-stop hordes” issue fixed. Difficulty now is more or less the same as in official Valve campaigns.
- All weapon mods were removed from vpk (They conflict with other weapon modes).
- Some crashes were fixed (But not all).
-  A conflict was detected with "Better Blood and wound textures" add-on  (improved blood textures.vpk). Conflict causes game crash. We’ll try to  eliminate the cause of conflict, but until then we recommend you to  disable this add-on.
- Bots behavior in the finale was fixed (They chose the wrong rescue vehicle sometimes).
- Extra way pointer was added in chapter four in case of jet bombing event.
- Smoke on heli landing spot is removed in case of bus finale.
-  Adrenaline was removed from the boat on the first map (It attracted  survivors and they jumped down into the deadly water. We’ll delete  deadly water in future updates).
- Pistols amount was reduced in chapters two, three and four.
Please, read this!
Campaign  is still in development for Left 4 Dead 2. Probably there are some  issues and bugs in this version, but do not despair, all of them will be  fixed in the future.
You can discuss the campaign and leave your feedback on our forum!  You can help  fix bugs faster, if you contact us there and describe  them in details!  Also you can suggest any of your ideas and improvement  for campaign! We’ll implement the most useful and interesting ideas!
Campaign  is available in two modes: coop and versus. Unfortunately “Marauder”  mode is unavailable for now, because of the problems we have with it.  This mode will be available in future releases.
Installation
Before  you install, please make sure you have the Steam Client installed along  with Left 4 Dead 2. Also make sure the game has been launched at least  once through Steam.
First extract zip archive. Then, all you need to  do is to copy the campaign (vpk file)  here:  ...\Steam\steamapps\common\left 4 dead 2\left4dead2\addons\
Turn Game Instructor ON! Please!!!
For  easy navigation and useful advices during the events we recommend  turning on Game Instructor feature during the first few playthroughs.
To  do that, go to Menu>Options>Multiplayer>Game Instructor and  turn it on. Now Game Instructor is on (but you can turn it off anytime  at the options).
Known issues and bugs
- Minor problem with bots’ navigation.
- Performance issues in some locations.
- Long loading time of campaign chapters (due to large and detail environments).
Knowing conflicts with other custom campaigns
- Conflict with “Silent Hill L4D2” and “Vienna Calling 2”.  Both of them contain file “soundscapes_manifest.txt” in vpk archive.  This file causes wrong ambient sounds errors in many campaigns,  including Back To School.
- Conflict with “Warcelona” campaign. The teddy bear may use wrong collision model.

We recommend you to turn off campaigns that cause conflicts (Menu>Extras>Add-ons).
In case of game crash
Very  rarely, during playing Back To School campaign, Left 4 Dead 2 could  crash (usually because of memory problems). This can occur for the  following reasons:
- “Paged Pool Memory Available” in video options  set on “High” while your graphic card has less than 512 Mb of memory.  Set this option on “Low”.
- “Multicore Rendering” is turn on. This can cause crashes on the old systems. Turn this option off.
- Some other custom campaigns or add-ons may conflict with Back To School. Turn them off.
- Large amount of installed add-ons can also cause crashes. Turn them off.
