Official support for community created campaigns has just been added to Left 4 Dead, thanks to the most recent update to the game. Valve has also updated the Left 4 Dead authoring tools—so get crackin' map makers!
Valve announced the long-awaited PC version update via the official Left 4 Dead blog last week, highlighting the changes that will enable support for add-on campaigns. In effect, it means more widespread access to and proper matchmaking for custom campaigns beyond the original four—No Mercy, Death Toll, Dead Air and Blood Harvest—thanks to the Left 4 Dead SDK.
Soon, we'll all be playing Dead Before Dawn—set in the Crossroads Mall from George Romero's Dawn of the Dead—and a thousand Resident Evil-inspired maps, with the obligatory nude Zoey mod installed. Hopefully a full recreation of 28 Days Later is currently brewing somewhere.

Awesome! always good to see an Aussie Server.
I have been testing some of the new .VPK maps, the initial designs are good... Cant wait to see crossroads complete. Although somehow i feel it is too little too late.
They're adding cricket bats to L4D2, whee!! :D
Australia needs more Australian Melee weapons.
Cricket bat ftw.
It was a joke for the ashes.

About time, but really the only custom map ive been looking forward to is Crossroads mall. The guy making it is putting some serious dedication into it.
