Half-Life: Zombie Mod X



☉ Description

Zombie Mod X is a server-side modification for Half-Life. The game-play is a classic zombie outbreak scenario. Each round, a player is infected with a virus and he must infect the others in order to multiply. Round is won by exterminating the opposing force.

☉ Infection mode

• Humans spawns in different locations, the virus is released after a while and someone turns out into a zombie.

☉ Preview



☰ Requirements

• AMX Mod X 1.9 or newer.

⚙ Installation

• Download files resources.zip and zx_plugin_* and extract their content inside of the folder valve (e.g. "C:\Half-Life\valve").
• Compile the file zx.sma and paste it (zx.amxx) in plugins folder ("valve/addons/amxmodx/plugins").
• Go to configs folder ("valve/addons/amxmodx/configs"), open plugins.cfg and add a line at the end that says zx.amxx debug and save it.
• In the folder valve, open the file server.cfg and add those commands at the end, separated line by line.

PHP Code:

mp_teamplay 1
mp_teamlist "hgrunt;zm_cso_host"
mp_defaultteam 1 // blocks change team
sv_maxspeed 400 // increase it to allow zombies to use custom speed. 


⛏ To do

• ☑ Add night-vision for zombies.
• ☐ Add zombie classes (use HL Player Models API).
• ☐ Add more modes (Nemesis, Survivor, etc.).
• ☐ Create an API to increase plugin extensibility.

☉ Notes

• The mod has multi-language support. You can translate the plugin into any language editing zx.txt and zx_help.txt in lang's folder.
• Ambience music is not included but you can add one by yourself. Just name a MP3 file to "ambience1.mp3" and save it in "valve/sound/zx/".

⚛ Additional plugins

• Double Jump for zombies (you can find it on attachments).

☆ Thanks to:

• Anggara_Nothing, when I started, his HLZM help me to understand better about how to create plugins for HL, etc.
• Koshak - Port to HL of zombie model from CSO.

Most of resources are from CSO.

Hello

Your function PrecacheTeamList() is not working as intended. I had to precache the models manually. (using defines)

// precache models from mp_teamlist
new model[128];
formatex(model, charsmax(model), "models/player/%s/%s.mdl", HUMAN_MODEL, HUMAN_MODEL);
precache_model(model);
formatex(model, charsmax(model), "models/player/%s/%s.mdl", INFECTED_MODEL, INFECTED_MODEL);
precache_model(model);

Additional bugs I found:

• I don't know if the mod was intended to be played with bots, but once an infected spawned one of the bots accidentally killed himself with the RPG, this caused a round end (No one has won message).
  
• Apparently the infected can still pickup items.

This was tested with HL Bugfixed using AMX 1.9

Thanks, I will check those later, but I need more information on some points. The mod is intented to be played with bots, as I do most of my test with them.

• In what circustances is this happening? How many players were playing in that round? There were spectators?
• Which items have pickup the infected?

I was testing with 3 bots. Once any survivor died the round would end.

The infected could pickup any item.

As an additional note, I'm using a different Infected model, I don't know if that's the cause. A quick look at the code revealed that the infected model is not defined anywhere so I doubt that's the cause.

I upgraded to the latest 1.9 build just in case but the error persisted.

UPDATE: Turns out the problem was on my end. The multimod plugin I was using wasn't executing the mod's required cvars in-time so the teamlist was defined on base of the previous mod's mp_teamplay cvar.

[rtxa]

I was doing some tests and this are my conclusions

• I didn't found any issue with PrecacheTeamList().
  
• About player models, the game code depends of your teamindex more than your model (check ChangePlayerTeam()), so that is the reason there aren't defines for that. there shouldn't be any problem with it.

Well, I'm glad you found the reason, tell me if you still experience those issues (infected picking up items, round end, etc.). I didn't found anything strange, I have test this mod a lot in my sv with real players and no one has experience this issue.

You have some mistakes in your [en] translation. Here are the fixed lines:

zx.txt:

ROUND_MINPLAYERS = %i alive players are needed to start the round. ROUND_HUMANSWIN = The infection has been contained! ROUND_DRAW = No one has won...

zx_help.txt - the last two lines here don't really make sense in their current English translation, so here:

PHP Code:

HELP_SETHUMAN = [name or #userid] - turns you or the specified player into a zombie
HELP_SETZOMBIE = [name or #userid] - turns you or the specified player into a human
