Code. Done using EModelBase LateUpdate LookAtUpdate, which modifies the head rotation after animation.
Now all we need is for the following sequence to occur:

Player steps on pile of trash. A Marlene, who is in the same room ahead of them and slumped over the floor, slowly turns her head around a full 180 degrees to face the player. ;)

 
This was a fun feature to do and took less than a day:
Added AI head tracking to movement or target positions.

This is the coolest news in recent times !!! =)

Now the zombies will cease to be just dolls or robots again, they will again become half-dead enemies who are watching you and are eager to eat your brain !!! =)

People need very little to be happy! )

Big Bertha in the new concept art on Twitter looks awfully like the (woman? zombie?) from Dawn of the Dead. Just voicing my concern, but maybe you should be afraid of copyright issues and consider changing her design.

I dont think the look itself is copyrighted...?

Now if she had the same name as the character....

 
If its true, nothing wrong paying homage. Good catch either way. Seen that movie a ton, but been while. Haven't haven't had time to enjoy old movies like I used to. Damn 7D2D. :loyal:

 
Still should make a shirt that says "I was there when it was square!" that shows the old A7 and early gameplay...Would be "retro-cool" for all us old time players...lol

I'm sure TFP will find time to make a "Legacy Skins" option you can activate in game to have zombies look like the old times... :wink-new:

Thanks, you rock for working these features in that will greatly add to the game's immersion.

 
Will the cheerleader and football zombie be remodeled or will they be removed from the game like it has been discussed in the past? (If it's the latter, I assume the stadium will go as well?)

 
Really excited about the upcoming changes.

The Zombies looking at you with the new models is going to be super creepy.

@faatal will the roads be getting any painted lines on them in random gen?

People are going way to worked up about drones, none of us have played it yet so we have no idea how its going to play, so relax.

If you dont like them, dont build them/ scrap them if you find them simple.
