2142 ZMod - Game Night 8-24-08!

[Fingulfin]

Thats right everyone, the 2142 ZMod is back! Now that I am finished with "Busy July" (which, BTW, was more of a HELL than a Zombie Apocalypse) I am getting back to work on the mod

In order to get the server back into popularity, me and my admins are hosting a "game night" on 8-24-08! The night will begin at 8:00 PM EST and end when the server empties :p I would REALLY apreciate it if when you get on you got onto the official ZMod TeamSpeak, its much more fun that way :p

Anyway, you can download the mod here:

http://zmod.freezoka.com/downloads/

(Download Z1.7, then Z1.7b)

If you would like to hop in on some Zombie action, the server IP is 72.232.124.67:17567
If you would like to hear the cries of frantic survivors, or the ghastly moans of the Zombie Overminds my Teamspeak IP is 72.232.167.123:3032

If you ever get onto the server and see that the teams aren't stacked properly (60 v 1), my XFire is "nodfingulfin". Feel free to send me a message :)

See you on the Battlefield :salute:

About time. :salute:

Let's get this mod rolling again!

btw wasn't there supposed to be 75 zombies in the latest release?

Re: 2142 ZMod - Game Night 8-24-08!

The hotfix actually REVERSED that change - apparently it was too much for the server to handle

But yeah, what he said, LETS GET THIS MOD ROLLING!

Any and all ideas are welcome for the next and (possibly) final version of the mod. Speak up, now is your chance!

Change the snipers to one fast, SVD-like one, and one that fires explosive shells, instead of having a explosive and powerful one.

Edit: Why use the Wiki on your own site, you could just link to Encyclanpedia, even if it doesn't get much traffic, you still won't have to host it yourself. :)

Edit 2: Sticky bomb launcher. Think RDX shotgun, but you choose when to detonate by right clicking. It's possible afaik, Timsad had his SMG shoot RDX packs and could manually detonate them. Just adjust the damage and model to fit the cheeseballs I guess.

Snipers: Actually, a 1 hit kill Zeller was the most demanded thing by my original batch of beta testers xD I HAVE, however, gotten a hold of a completely NEW sniper model. Exported and ready to be put in game (thanks DTneter!). That one could be yer SVD :p

Wiki: Its actually a free hosted wiki by Wetpaint, I encompass it in an Iframe. Costs me nothing but an e-mail address (which I have plenty of)!

Sticky Bomb: EASILY possible and sounds cool too! Maybe a reskinned RDX Shotty... This will definately go under consideration!

Re: 2142 ZMod - Game Night 8-24-08!

C'mon, the ECP staff have been pushing the TGN wiki for ages now. Least you could do is copy/paste it onto there. :) So much potential, a shame it appears dead now.

As for the sticky bomb launcher, I assume it'll be for support replacing the cheeseballs? And any thoughts for sentries for the engineer while I'm still ripping off ideas off of TF2? :p

Re: 2142 ZMod - Game Night 8-24-08!

lol xD We had ideas for making a limited ammo sentry available to the engineer WAAAAAAAYYY back when but we decided against it (I can't remember why).

As for the Fried Cheeseball Launcher... I am planning on getting a reskinned version to be used as a "Grenade Launcher" for support (replacing the grenades), then replacing the existing RDX-Shotty with the Remote-Detonate RDX-Shotty. I'll start working on it soon :)

Get a modeller to stick a chain gun from an eu air transport on the back of an fav (and remove the normal turret or change it so it shoots zombie deterants) so a person can go to 3rd position in the fav and mow down zombies with a chain gun

Also I've thrown this idea around a few times but incendiary grenades? Just like I suppose throwing the flamethrower around, you throw a grenade and it explodes into damaging flames that stick around and burn for a while.

I would consider joining in on the fun but I think it'd be like 8am on a Monday morning for us Aussies.

Or have a downed EU air transport and let us use one of the chainguns, like that one mission in CoD4!

I installed the mod and then the hotfix and the mod won't start, it shows the splash screen, the screen goes black then back to my beautiful desktop.

You should link to the Game Monitor page on that banner, it would save me a lot of typing. :p http://www.game-monitor.com/bf2142_G...ombie_Mod.html

Looks the the bots are imbalanced again. How do you switch the bots over, do you use an external program like 2142cc or do you just type in the console?
