Unified zombie pack release imminent

Recommended Posts

Hi, i love you guys mod. But im wondering if there is a download so the zombies just doesnt attack instanly. I mean so i can give them waypoints and such. Because if i put myself and the zombie on two different sides of the island, the zombie will start running immideatly against me.

Can this be fixed?

1. Sethon, you can indeed script the zombies yourself.

Just make sure there is:

a) No GblTargets array

b) No game logic called SERVER.

Then you can program them yourself.

PS:

Today is the last day of the zombie mod POLL!

If you want to shape the next release of the zombie mod, get yo ass over to:

SCRIPT UPGRADE BETA 4 IMMINENT!

New features:

1) Zombies that don't know where you are, exactly, but can "smell" you.. the closer they get, the better the smell.. this means you can hide, but for how long?

2) Zombies that wander set areas, and only chase you if they see you.

3) "Spawner" game logics which spawn random zombies when player(s) get within a certain distance. Of course, the amount of zombies they spawn and how often is up to you.

4) Optimised code, uses more functions.

In addition, some more new animations will be taken from maccollo's work, and implemented into the zombie mod for a later revision of beta 4.

If you are interested in participating in the beta programme, then please email me at zombie.mod@ntlworld.com with the subject line "BETA TEST" - I will contact you in due course. It may be a week or 2 so be patient.

Script update RC4 PRE-RELEASE VERSION

This is not the final version of script update RC4. You mail me about RC4 and I'll block your ass so fast crazy_o.gif I just want to demonstrate spawners to you, and also the fast, sleek functions the new mod uses. THESE ZOMBIES ARE KILLERS!!!

Get it from:

http://www.unifiedzombiemod.wz.cz/scriptupdaterc4.rar

Please send feedback to zombie.mod@ntlworld.com, or post here. Do NOT ask scripting questions about RC4 as this is not an official release.

WHAT IS A SPAWNER

A spawner game logic automatically creates zombies when they are N metres away or less from any target in gblAllTargets array. For example, a 50m spawner game logic will create zombies when a target comes within 50m of where the invisible game logic has been positioned.

Make sure you place a spawner difficulty setting game logic too, this affects how many and how often zombies are created. Yes, all zombies are created within the groups referenced in gblGroupList, so make sure you have plenty of groups!!!

It is not recommended you use game logics <500m as the zombies tend to "pop out" in front of you. Also, you can setpos game logics, so one game logic can be your sole spawner.

Sorry to reply to my own post, but Munk and any other web hosts: can you please remove script update RC1 from your web sites, and replace it with RC3, available from my site (see sig) .

People are downloading the zombie mod, then getting the old script update and bugging me biggrin_o.gif

Thats the point. I thought most horror movies never have happy endings.  wink_o.gif

Great stuff, before about 8-10 Guerillas with H-D, and IDF units could handle a friggin mob of +60 zombies and vampires as they ran up a hill towards them. Now...not so sure.  biggrin_o.gif

You know, would it be possible, if it isnt now, for zombies to perhaps die after X amount of 'deaths'?

You know, like I shoot one in the head once on Hard Difficulty. He falls, gets back up and heads towards me, kills me.

With this, I shoot him in the head once, he gets up, I shoot him again, and he falls and gets back up, I shoot him once more and he dies.

A median between 'immortal' zombies and 'perma-death' zombies.

Also I think it be a good idea to put an example mission up on the site so you dont get so many questions and people having proplems smile_o.gif just a simple desert island, 2 groups of soldiers,few groups zombies and all the game logics needed.

Also what dose the diffculty setting "romeo univers" do? seems the same as easy or medium.

And i cant get the spawn working crazy_o.gif but i supose thas a question for mission and editing topic.

Romero universe is just as George Romero has it. If you want "realism" (if such a thing is possible with zombies lol) then that's what you should use.

The zombies are weak, not indestructable, they cant damage tanks or APCs. When they bite humans, the human always dies and resurrects as a zombie.

Mig and I are working on new zombie types. You wanna see the one I am currently texturing?

Oops, duplicate post - I blame Firefox crazy_o.gif

PS: Firefox browser rules! better than IE in every way. Apart from the fact it doesn't load the BIS scripting documentation biggrin_o.gif

No sir, it does not. But I will be releasing a new animation pack shortly after RC4, as a patch upgrade. Don't worry, I've seen the anims, and they rock.

In fact, in http://farmland.ofpcentral.com forums you can download some of them for viewing.
