I had some feedback today that reminded me I hadn't actually pointed out to users that they would need to install any custom maps they wanted to play into the AlienSwarmSp directory.
AS:SP is smart, but it's not smart enough to go looking in the offical game directory Addons folder for any custom maps you might have downloaded.
So in order to play custom maps you're going to have to create a folder called "Addons" in the AlienSwarmSP folder, then move your custom map .vpk's in there in order for them to show up in the mission selection screen.
I will be updating the current version of AS:SP tonight so that the standard package comes with the "Addons" folder included and instructions in the Readme.txt file.
Until then use this post as direction...
The problem with Alien Swarm is that its multiplayer by default. As the community gets bored with the official campaign they move on and pretty soon theres no one to play with anymore. Take away the multiplayer and you have a great top down shooter. I give you Alien Swarm: Single Player... enjoy!
