I have an Example:

Central Dark: http://www.l4dmaps.com/details.php?file=861

VPK files only please for ease of use.

Look like the direct download ingame doesn't actually work. Makes me see little point in the latest update tbh.

I thought that earlier when you were using a map call "dam? or dammed? on your server and was unable to download anything :(

Had a quick skim through that site you link, but as before most of the campaign are in beta or Alpha, found one thats complete

where as the other files said that type they were, this one does not :(
 
first things first,

Left 4 Dead OCUK names thread
http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=17977788

Add your name etc to the end of there and start adding people on it.

There are a few servers and pretty much nightly games however they do fill up really fast. Basically try adding lots of people on that list, also if you look through the later pages of this thread you can work out who tends to play a lot by how often they post so try to add them to maximise your chance of invites to games

I just got into L4D and I'd love to have a game. I'm assuming from the last posts that there's an OCUK server? Can someone clue me in?

There are four ocuk servers currently. Fragm ones are run by Aekeron, OcUK 3 is run by me.

OcUK 1 - Fragm - 217.168.150.203:27016
OcUK 2 - Fragm - 217.168.150.203:27017
OcUK 3 - Link to Insanity's Server - 85.234.148.240:27145
OcUK 4 - Fragm - 217.168.150.203:27018 - 16 man server. Direct Connect Only.

The Ocuk 1-3 servers can be specificly connected to with the search key ocuk (type sv_search_key ocuk in console when in lobby) or with ms_force_dedicated_server <IP Address> instead of the search key (more reliable, as long as the specific server is empty). To connect to the 16 man Versus server, you have to directly connect with connect 217.168.150.203:27018 in the console from ingame. All servers have custom configs that can change the rules slightly (or more than slightly ;)) when they are run.

A new mod is Installed on OcUK3 which lengthens BH4 and takes away some exploitative camping spots. Map load times can reportedly be slightly longer, but I haven't really noticed.

The dead air finale is supposed to be edited as well but I've removed the editing on that as it removes most of the map.

These changes aren't done in the same way as yours. They edit a cfg file to add these in, making downloading of different maps unnecessary.

Currently sourcing them from elsewhere. So not under my control when/if they get updated although if they cause problems I shall take them off again.

In other news the search key (ocuk) now works on my server again (ocuk3. It has only been tested in survival and coop, but should work for 4v4 versus aswell). It also now shows up on the steam group. Aekeron is working on his (when he has time) as I've had reports of the search key failing for most people for all three 8 man servers. Hopefully it should be working soon.

EDIT: OcUK3 updated. Hopefully it won't rebreak the search key lol.
