Included with the pack is:
- Updated version of Hammer, the source level editor
- Updated suite of command line compiling utilities
- Updated Particle editor
- Updated Faceposer
- Example maps, common infected, props, and explosives
The "matchmaking" system will be updated to fully support custom maps. This looks like great news for the L4D community, as custom maps are already all over the place. Killing zombies just got better (again).
