Zombie Apocalypse: BRAIIIIIIINS!

[syberspunk]

I still say, we need molotov cocktails!  It would be totally awesome!  Plus, you could set zombies on fire!!  There should be some chance that you could accidentally hit others nearby.  But what's a war without collateral damage!  It should also depend on some sort of skill/ability.  If you're clumsy, you're liable to blow yourself up instead.

Well, there is the firebomb over at Sim Wardrobe -- that has a chance of immolating everything is sight.

[notveryawesome]

SW also has an assault rifle. I place it in my vampire-hunter sim's inventory and then take her to Downtown community lots, where much carnage ensues (this will stop once my cemetery has an adequate number of ghosts). Such a thing could easily be done for zombie disposal, as well.

Yes, I'm definitely planning on giving my sims some sort of protection against the zombie hordes, SimWardrobe has a nice assortment of weaponry.

[KnowitallSim]

This looks awesome!

One thing, does this happen in every neighborhood you have or not? I'd hate to have all of my neighborhoods be zombo-fests, just the one apocalyptic one

Yes, but it's only in effect so long as it's in the game.  So put it in your downloads, play the hood you want to become a zombo-fest, and then quit the game and take it out before you play any other hoods.

[notveryawesome]

Also, you can avoid zombies by simply not creating any.

I have a question, and if it has already been asked and answered, I apologize.  I did read through the thread, but didn't see anything.  My husband wants this mod something fierce, but I just wanted to make sure it's OK to use with Bon Voyage.  If it is, I assume the Fight Club mod is compatible with BV as well.  Thanks and sorry again if it's a stupid question.  Just tattoo Not Awesome on my forehead.  :-P

[cenoura]

Generally if you can find it in http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/ffs/index.php?dir=bv that directory then you're OK to use it for BV.

Mayhaps it would help to post what EPs you're playing with?  My zombie only gets body points from winning fights, and he wants to fight pretty much all the time.  Win or lose.  Residential or comm lot doesn't matter. 

He generally takes a couple of sim hours or less to attack, and prefers it as amusement over all other fun objects.  Inevitably, some poor sim succumbs to ADHD and quits bowling, or whatever.  I find it helps if your lots aren't huge, since zombies take such a looong time in transit.

[Gastfyr]

I understand the Fight Club mod is reqired for this mod to work, but it doesn't appear to be updated for AL.  I do think this mod would make zombies a lot more interesting, but as I have AL I guess I'll have to wait a bit.

[J. M. Pescado]

....you're kidding, right?

[jolrei]

Howls of derisive laughter, Gastfyr.

[kewian]

Well Ive updated my director's cut and so far Ive only seen one fight and my zombies just go about their daily business.  Not one attack.

[uchuujin]

*presses the thanks button repeatedly*  YES!!  I'm so glad I found this.  I'm a lurker and hardly ever register on boards, let alone talk, but this was too awesome to pass up. 

I have a request for you, Pescado... it would be so incredibly awesome to do a Zombie Apocalypse Challenge!  I was planning on making all of my college buddies go crazy in Uni, giving them one advantage over zombies...  but it would be so cool if it was an actual challenge.  Do you mind if I do this?

  It would take me a while to figure out rules and such, though.  I'm horrible with point systems and such, and tend to take shortcuts.  But hey, this would be a hack-based challenge, so why the hell not?

So, with your permission, I would like to try that.

[nekonoai]

Alien - I think there already is a Zombie Apocalypse Challenge. Go searchin' through the board some more.

[Tsarina]

Are you thinking of Pinstar's Apocalypse Challenge?
Zombies don't really play a big role in it. I believe it can be played completely without zombies, although they do add some atmosphere.

[uchuujin]

There's only two pages of challenges, so it isn't too hard to search.  There is, in fact, an apocalypse challenge, but nothing pertaining to this hack.

[Zazazu]

There's one at SCF. Google. Who knew.

Hey, that one's pretty awesome.  Though I was thinking more along the lines of a group of people and one zombie to start off, and the last person to be zombified wins... with points for how long your sims survive and such.

I could always make it into a controlled but improvised story, I guess.  With all the elements I want to add in it would be really difficult to figure out a system.

[thinmonkey]

Would it be possible to make zombie passers-by actually come into one's house (in search of 'mowe bwains' obviously) without ever stopping to ring the bell (kinda like outgoing sims - they just barge in and head stright for the pool...)? That'd be fun. Also, I noticed sims zombified via "Eat Brains" do not have their personality twisted. Is it supposed to be so?

[Simsdreamer]

Can zombies be killed dead by other "normal" means such as fire, electrocution, drowning, flies, satellite, disease, fright, cowplant, or scissors? I assume that zombies are immune to death by hunger or old age.

I'm not sure if zombies age or not, but I'm pretty sure they can die by any other means that would kill a normal sim.  I know the short time I had a zombie living with a sim (Goopy, who's now a zombie townie), he had to eat.

Zombies don't age, only if you have a hack, mod, or cheat

[akatonbo]

Teen zombies will age normally into young adults and then adults if you send them to college, and that doesn't require any mods or cheats. But that's it.
