I’ve modified and updated the installers for both the Counter-Strike: Source No Blood and Team Fortress: 2 No Blood patches. Now one can choose whether they want to remove the blood that splashes onto walls, the blood that splashes out of one’s body when one is being shot at, or both. The installer also makes the default installation directory %PROGRAM FILES%\Steam\steamapps, so all the user is left to do is navigate into their username folder and then into the materials folder of the corresponding game (And this is outlined in the installer, in the license agreement step). If no materials folder exists, create one.
The nice thing is that now people can easily uninstall this since it will appear in Add/Remove Programs. If you have any questions or problems, please ask in the respective patch’s page, not here.
NSIS and HM NIS Editor were used to create these installers.
After much demand, I have finally created a Team Fortress 2: No Blood ‘patch’. I just took the German Blood Patch version 2.0, provided by DJ, which restores blood for German players, and reversed it (Haha, how ironic) in the same manner as I did with the CS:S No Blood Patch. This page is called TF2: No Blood, but as of version 1.3 it is a collection of low violence patches including no blood decals, no blood splashes, and funny gibs.
UPDATE: Version 1.3 now allows you to remove blood decals (The blood on the walls and stuff like that, textures basically), the blood splashes (The particle effects like when you’re shooting at someone and blood splashes off), and a new option to install funny gibs which replaces the bloody gibs with an explosion of funny models such as rubber duckies, springs, cogs, etc. (More fitting to the game if you ask me).
Download the installer version 1.3 here.
Install to your account folder inside the steamapps folder.
If you get blood or gibs again, you will have to re-install the patch. Some servers have custom blood or gib content that overrides this patch.
Looking for CS:S No Blood? It’s here.

There’s always a few people that are wondering how to turn off blood in Counter Strike Source, for various reasons. I skinned the blood splats/decals and erased them so now there are no longer blood splats. I didn’t do this intentionally though, I was just messing around with the VTF format and what not, and I figured I’d do something small like that. Continue Reading
