Zombie Plague Mod 3.5
Description:
Zombie Plague is a Counter-Strike plugin developed under AMX Mod X, in where humans and zombies are confronted. It is based on the original infection mod, but it takes the concept to a new level by introducing:
- New Gameplay Modes: Nemesis, Survivor, Multiple Infection, Swarm Mode
- Zombie Classes: a total of six, each with his own strengths
- Ammo Packs: awarded to skilled players, can be used to purchase goods
- Custom Grenades: Fire, Frost, Flare, and Infection Bomb
- Deathmatch Mode: players may respawn as zombies, humans, or randomly
- Admin commands: can be performed through an easy ingame menu
- Special GFX Effects: from the HL Engine
- Customizable Models and Sounds
It also brings many customization through CVARS:
- Change nightvision/flashlight colors and size
- Adjust in-game lightning (thunderclaps available on pitch black mode)
- Set zombies/humans health, speed, gravity, ammo pack rewards, and more
- Enable unlimited ammo or knockback for weapons
- Enable random spawning (CSDM-spawns friendly)
- Separately enable and customize the new gameplay modes to your liking
History:
As only few people may know, I started this project back on December 2007, when the free infection mods around were quite buggy. When I first decided to remake one of those, I came across many problems and realized I had little to no experience at AMXX scripting, and therefore, agreed that the best way to get it done would be starting from scratch.
Not after spending over a week looking at many plugins (mainly Zombie Swarm) and scarce tutorials, I managed to have all the basic stuff working quite well (even though the code itself was really messy). The following months were spent polishing things up and trying to fulfill new original ideas.
In the meantime I had the chance to try the plugin out on a 32 man server. This meant a huge progress on development, we ran into lots of testing and fixing server crashes, but finally this turned out to be more than the simple infection mod I had originally planned it to be.
The reason this project was kept private for such a long time was not only for its uniqueness, but because I felt like it wasn't ready to take the next step yet. However, the plugin has come a long way now. I've spent the last days improving and commenting the source code, adding as many customization as I could, and I'm glad to say I'm finally making it freely available.
The only thing I ask for return is to keep my name in the plugin.
-Enjoy!
