Romero Mod - A game mode/suite of zombie tweaks

Troll mode enabled? Lol. I would probably laugh hard if that happened to me. I guess you guys had some fun that night with the increased wandering hordes AND bloodmoon hordes... :p

 
Nah, just the game derping out.

I need to see if there's a way I can edit the enum to make walk and off the default.

 
Okay, so good news and bad news.

I managed to make "always walk" the default.

But I can't set bloodmoon to off. You have to set it to 0 days.

 
I don't think I turned that setting on. If I did, then it's a setting in 0-Sphereii-Core that can be turned on/off as the player wishes.

 
We are trying to get this mod onto a server.  Both the server owner and I are getting the same two Error's on loading and we get stuck on creating character. One is "end of stream exception" an done is hard to read but it looks like "NCSimple deserializer" I have never seen either of those error's before. I am guessing that since we both got the error it has to be an issue on the server not on our end.


 
Highly likely.

ALWAYS test a mod in single player first. If it works as intended, then the server is the issue.

 
Hey Khaine.. loving the mod. I have hordes set as standard every 6 hours but only seeing one or 2 a day. Is that expected because they spawn in various parts of map or should they appear near me every time?

 
They spawn out of sight and path towards your last known location.

So that does sound like it's working correctly. :)  They don't GPS to you like bloodmoon does.

 
Loving this mod, just what I was looking for all these years so thank you for this.

I was wondering if there is an issue with the HP bar modlet not working? I have this installed on 19 stable and doesn't show the HP bars. Any idea?

I actually don't know. I saw it not work for someone else too, but it was working for me.

I'll look into it for when 19.2 comes out.

 
Having an issue with sleeper spawns - sometimes I will go a few POIs without seeing any sleepers. Then suddenly, I'll be in a POI and all the sleepers inside spawn at the same time, out of thin air and in rooms I've already passed.

It happened a couple times starting around day 12, and it wasn't that bad just seemed like a glitch. Having no sleepers randomly felt pretty awesome. But I was holding down a POI overnight on day 14, no sleepers had spawned there. I put down a bedroll, started setting up some boxes, cooking food, living the good life... Then out of nowhere, the entire building erupts with the screams of aggro spawns and they're everywhere: closets, corners, appearing right in front of me.

If I had to guess, wandering hordes max out the zombies allowed at once, which prevents sleepers from spawning. The horde runs off into the distance and despawn causing sleepers to spawn in late. A19.1 stable, installed Romero from mod launcher.

 
Yeah, it's likely hitting max zombies. That's a configurable option on the main menu, so you can increase it if you like. I think I set the max to 200, but I was testing with 100.

 
Hey Khaine.. loving your mod. On the 2 pipe weapons you added have crafted both. The pistol is fine but the rifle is little difficult to use ADS (i disable crosshairs btw) as characters hand slightly obscurs the sight at end of the rifle. Any way to alter that slightly so have clear ADS?

 
Sorry to post again but had situation with several zombies walking over mines which exploded but didn't affect any of them. No blowing up in air or dismemberment. They just appeared to walk through them. Know you were looking at that (which is doubtless caused by headshots only) and just wondered if that could be improved? Unless governed by Spherii core mod which is outside your control. Just miss blowing them Z's up lol

 
Well .. KhaineGB .. I finally found the correct place to ask my silly question:

1) .. Bloodmoon is Disabled in the menu .. But on day 7 .. I got the thunder and all the good stuff that goes with it .. INCLUDING the horde and killed more than 600 z's .. thank goodness for the cm (3000 rounds of ammo) .. totally not expecting it.

2) .. Ok .. on Unprotected Traders as Darkness Falls .. But I was getting z's spawning on the inside of trader walls .. not expected that either.

       (Good thing I upgraded Jen's Trailer to reinforce concrete)

3) .. Is there a way to change the Headshot only .. Or .. turn it down some .. I know I was hitting many with headshot, but they were not dying per say.

4) .. I did make one change in the XML to _ 12hrs and not the 6hrs as it was, but still at 30 z's .. And .. added your 96 slot backpack mod w/food and water.

       and a couple others _ remove trash/pick flowers .. some minor stuff like that.

But .. I do like not having to have wastelands and burnt forest to play the mod .. It's Alot of Fun.

Take Care and as always Be Safe, ... the Old Gamer .. 😌

PS: AND Yes .. I'm building Jen's Build from Darkness Falls, if you remember from earlier post on DF .. She has a perfect location just outside 3 city's

I shall see if I can do anything with land mines. No promises, but i'll try. It's definitely related to headshot only.

I changed grenades/explosive bolts/rocket launcher to have higher dismemberment chance.

1) I know I answered this in the DF thread, but for anyone else... set Bloodmoon to 0 days, not disabled. I don't know WHY, but disabled doesn't work. 0 Day does. I've been trying to make that the default, but the game doesn't want to know. :D

2) I believe you can disable this in sphereii-core if you so wish.

3) Nope. It's either on or off. There IS a modlet on the forums somewhere that makes headshots lethal... so pretty much guaranteed kill. That'd work well with this mod, but I didn't include it as default as I had concerns it would be too easy.

 
Good day KhaineGB

I have 1 more question ..

How do I go about and turn on Random Chat with the Traders .. What, I mean is .. in DF _ Jen and others will talk all the time when you are near her or them  as in greeting you (even Vanilla they greet you) .. Glad you stop by she gets lonely .. coffee pot broken .. just random stuff ........... But in this version she will only talk _ when you have completed your business or picked a quest and she tell you to be safe _ etc.

Yel, I know .. kinda of silly .. but it make the game more fun and for being an Old Fart .. gives the game a bit of that personal touch.

So .. I was wondering if there is a Random chat "True" somewhere that I could reset ... Or is that something in DF you did?? .... Because, I have no clue to where to even start to look.

Thank You and as Always Take Care and Be Safe ... the Old Gamer .. 😌 ................ Having a Blast with this version and I might even turn Bloodmoon back on.
