Thank You for 1,000 Downloads!
Seriously, thank you so much for the 1,000+ downloads. I'm really happy that people have been enjoying this stupid Neco Arc project as much as I have enjoyed making it.
What started as a small Neco Arc sound mod has somehow turned into a complete audiovisual takeover of Deadlock, and this update is by far the biggest one yet.
If you want to keep supporting the project, my PayPal donation option is available on the page. I'm currently unemployed and starving harder than Neco Arc looking for Pilk, so any support is genuinely appreciated. ?
This release is divided into three separate ZIP files, so you can install only the parts you want:
• Neco Arc Skin — transforms Rem/Familiar into playable Neco Arc.
• Neco Arc Environment — replaces models, props, artwork, menus and environmental elements.
• Neco Arc Sounds — replaces music, voices, UI sounds, objectives, combat sounds and many other audio events.
All three packs are designed to work together, but they can also be installed separately.

Installation / Compatibility
The three packs are distributed separately:
• Neco Arc Skin
• Neco Arc Environment
• Neco Arc Sounds
You can install one, two, or all three depending on what you want to replace.
Mods that replace the same Rem/Familiar assets, models, materials, UI files, localization, sounds, music or environmental resources may conflict.
Deadlock updates can change or invalidate Source 2 resources, so future game updates may require another update to this mod.
Known Notes
• The Skin is audiovisual only and does not change gameplay balance.
• A1 keeps the feather effects; the optional smoke effect was not added.
• Special MVP and respawn audio for the Skin currently do not have their own dedicated trigger.
• Soul Urn damage/drop events are included, although their exact triggering behavior can vary.
• Sinner's Sacrifice destruction audio worked during testing, but its behavior in normal matches has not been consistently confirmed.
Feedback
If you find missing sounds, broken models, animation problems, incorrect effects, localization issues, conflicts or anything else strange, please report it.
And if you have ideas for even more ridiculous Neco Arc replacements, send them too. Apparently I haven't suffered enough yet.
Thanks again for 1,000+ downloads and for giving this project a chance.
