How to Play in Defence Alliance 2
By Li Deatus and 1 collaborators
With gradually-leaving time, many things change or remain unchanged, and so, the breakthrough in the game Killing Floor (and the game itself) have significantly gone forward, starting their way from the eerily raw game into a full-scale project and the soon released the second part. But speech now not about that. What about the Defense Alliance 2, then he almost did not change and the last update dates back to 2011. In this regard, DA2 is no longer suitable and can not be started (which is quite clear). Which is the reason for the creation of this guide.

0. Introduction
In this manual, you will find all the ways to run this beautiful mod. Precisely follow all the steps in these points and comprehend you happiness and well-being in your life. Look, but read carefully!
1. Moving Files
The easiest way, but not very reliable, bugs are possible, errors appear and besides, the bots do not work here the point is simply to move all the files from the folder DA2 (this folder will not be if you did not install the mod Defense Alliance 2) in the folder with Killing Floor installed (by the default path must be: D:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\killingfloor), then you need to go to Steam and run Killing Floor through the Games Library. Next, we can simply choose the mod Defense Alliance 2 (in the game itself, when creating a match) and play on the preset cards, see what it is. In this case, all servers created on earlier versions of Killing Floor (with mod/mod Defense Alliance 2) will not be displayed and available for the game.
Note: All the played hours of Defense Alliance 2 will go to Killing Floor, since we actually made a substitution of files.
2. Early Versions KF
Yes, yes, you are not mistaken, for the next item you will need to roll back the game Killing Floor starting with the versions of the game 1017 (approximately so). The difference from the previous point is that you will have access to all the created servers (on the game version of the game) and the access to the perks is blocked, as in KF this was introduced "very recently". Downloading the old version of Killing Floor is via Steam using the console and one good site SteamDB[steamdb.info]. How to do this in detail is written in this manual. The command shown in the screenshot is just an example. In the Steam console you need to enter: download_depot 35420 1252 3980808606197137275 and more download_depot 35420 1251 4383494488526927662. The console is called via the key WIN (icon Windows on the keyboard) + R, and in the appeared window write: steam://nav/console. After downloading the old version of KF, move all downloaded files (which will be: D:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\content\app_35420\depot_1252 and in D:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\content\app_35420\depot_1251) to the folder with KF (path: D:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\KillingFloor), do not forget to make a backup.

I'm checking out the files to make sure everything runs correctly. I will update everyone soon.

Sorry everyone. I believe the older versions for Killing Floor, which is necessary to run DA2 for KF correctly, is no longer available through Steam.
I'm recommending the Killing-Floor.ru site at this time for downloading updates as far back as update 1017 at this time. If anyone isn't familiar with Russian, try using a web site translator.
I also recommend that anyone save the updates in case the updates become unavailable for some reason. That way someone will be able to share them.
Here's the update link for convenience

Is this how to get past the weird GTA-style loading screen thing? I don't understand why it would download a mess of files alongside an actual game if it isn't even formatted correctly.

I was able to download the depots. However, after installing and running the program, the files turned out to be the latest version. Therefore, I believe the older versions of Killing Floor are no longer available through Steam.

I think this is what the commands should be now
download_depot 1250 1252 8847646994748097416
download_depot 1250 1251 9033622738747915238
I will try it.
