Re: [L4D2] Nightmarish Common (Updated: 4/28/14)
 

when i got into a next map im frozen and cant move and everyone eles is too is there something wrong with this

Re: [L4D2] Nightmarish Common (Updated: 4/28/14)
 

This plugin basically modifies the common infected so that they're harder to deal with. I've been running this for a week on my server (with ReadyUp) and haven't seen any problems with being frozen after a map change. What other plugins are you running?

Edit: If you downloaded this plugin I didn't takeoff the Debug mode before posting. I posted one without the debug to prevent spam.

oh roger

Re: [L4D2] Nightmarish Common (Updated: 4/28/14)
 

Not sure if it's an option already but looking at the cvars it doesn't look like the modded common zombies from your mod are rare/unique/frequent, but rather they affect every single common zombie with either of the choices correct? Will there be any probabilities made to whether the commons would be changed to each of your types in the future?

Re: [L4D2] Nightmarish Common (Updated: 4/28/14)
 

Added in a cvar to control the chance of getting a nightmarish common. Also added in extra cvars for each type to control their size.

I just noticed the update after taking a break, thanks for the cvar additions, they make your mod a lot more convenient. The whole idea behind it is great, I can't wait to use this and the Mutants mod together.

Awesome mod, but is there a way to make the Special Infected Bigger and smaller?? Such as a Bigger/ smaller tank :D?

Re: [L4D2] Nightmarish Common (Updated: 5/5/14)
 

• l4d_ncm_type?speedmin: Minimum speed multiplier for the zombie type.
• l4d_ncm_type?speedmax: Maximum speed multiplier for the zombie type.

No effect, it's not working.
