Sahrani Virus: A New Beginning (MP)

Recommended Posts

After playing Blake's "They Came from the Desert", I decided to create the Sahrani sequel to Nogova Virus.  I made 5 of them for OFP, which might have been 5 too many.  biggrin_o.gif

Actually, the first Nogova Virus was a heavy edit of the original one by Howard Johnson, which in turn was inspired by Skye Virus by D. Murphy Man.  Then I created 4 more.

I think I've gotten JIP working smoothly with it, although there are still some issues, of course.

Anyway, here's the link: Sahrani Virus I

And thanks to Blake and Lolsav for some nice sounds for this mission.

@IceBreakr: Bashing

Dang, Ziggy, I thought Little Orphan Annie was the perfect way to end that one mission.

(Any chance on making the zombies as a standalone addon? Your scripts confused me tounge2.gif )

Well, when you die, I forgot to mention that you transform into a zombie.  So if you have teammates, you can attack them.

I've found some decent animations for zombie attacks, but unfortunately none as good as the old ones from OFP.  I've been digging thru the list of anims for more.

I've got another version of this in the works.  I added some TTS voice "acting", which sounds about as good as the voice acting in most B movies.

I've also got the next chapter in the works.  I hope someone releases farm animals for ArmA.  In chapter 5 of Nogova Virus, I had zombie animals attack.  It was fun running from crazy chickens.

@ofpforum: someone did make zombie addons for OFP. Maybe they'll do it for this. I've discovered some ways to improve my old zombie scripts with new ArmA commands as well, so I'll experiment with those soon to cut down on some of the trigonometry with the new createUnit <array> command.

And we do play this on my server. See my sig for details.

Man I just loved you Zombie leaps !

Do you plan on releasing the script for that ? When the modelling tools are out that could be hell of a Jetpack.

One question though : How do you actually win this thing ? You shoot them and they keep coming and coming... there seems to be no end to it ? Or is there a chopper somewhere for extraction ?

Anyway, quite unusual, but loads of fun !!...

Heh, the zombie leaps are very simple. Just a setVelocity with some trigonometry to get direction, etc.

There are objectives in the mission. Just watch the radio chatter prompts and look at the map. I'll probably insert some dynamic waypoints for it as well.

Thanks for the mention biggrin_o.gif a lot of people often forget/dont know that the first 'virus' mission was infact skye virus. The first mission i ever released and what got me into mission making in the first place! Glad to see the zombie missions carrying on in Arma, you can expect some more zombie missions from me when i get my greasy mits on Arma in the UK soon!

Im also looking forward to trying this mission out when i get Arma, keep up the great work!

These kind of missions have always been my second passion, kinda, so I will be checking this one out as soon as I get a copy of arma (hopefully in a few days). smile_o.gif

same here, link is dead. The world is so, so cruel to me.

Someone get that link up FAST!

I still have all the "old" missions on DVD. Skye Virus, Nogovas, all the Z addons, etc etc etc. Was halfway done with my own first REAL mission when my hardrive crashed, taking all my scripts and work with it, kinda drive me off, I had put a ton of work into it.

I see from looking in the OFP forums that the love for Z's hasn't died, but I doubt I have time to concentrate on 2 games......

We tried out this mission on our squadnight to get some relaxation. We used "hard" settings, weather was really bad but our squad of 7 managed to get to end, we lost one guy.

One shot from the event - SBP team advanced over a bridge to reach the extraction point:

Heh, good job. Try it on Very Hard though. Main difference is that it's night and a few more zombies.

BTW, I updated my FTP link with the latest version of Virus. This version has the voices in it that add extra flavor. ;P Just use the link in the first post.
