What about a mod where we can play as Zombie?

Hi,

I saw a movie on youtube, called Half-Life: Zombie Edition.

What about a mod based on Black Mesa where we start as a Headcrab on Xen and we are teleported to the Black Mesa Facility, then we need to find a doctor, guard, or anybody else to become a zombie and the goal is too reach a Portal to get back to Xen?

Maybe even the possibility to infect Gordon…

Just an idea, what do u think guys/girls?

This could happen when Xen is done since the starting levels are in Xen. Could be great, I haven’t played that mod before.

Don’t you need the SourceCode to do something like this?

It’s a bit like AVP 2

where you had to face hugger some poor guy in a toilet…

The source code is already available AFAIK. JamesKane said in a thread that you have to send him an e-mail if you want it.

I know, but that thread is removed IIRC.
Atleast I couldn’t find it when I needed the the BMS code.
But if you need to send an e-mail, I guess I’ll just try.

As AvP indeed, more stealthy approach is needed cause u have no weapons u can use, so close counter combat…

Well I played AvP2 in the past, very nice game, but I did prefer using the Predator (finished the game as those character)

Maybe this can help you, is a Mod than is making a friend, he was furious when he posted a “demo” and he said is temporaly dead, but is not dead, he is working on it, is modeling and is making animations. Headcrab Mod

For you see examples:

Headcrab to zombie alpha

He means a mod for Black Mesa, not a total conversion mod.

Oh okay, is see :slight_smile: anyway is easiest, you don’t need anycode, if you want i can ask him for make it some maps like you say.

Would be great indeed!

Looking at the comments for the alpha of that mod, I think I just wait till Valve unfucked it.

It’s a good concept, and I’d LOVE to see a multiplayer mode like that; to play as an alien on an enemy force (something like Natural Selection 1/2’s).

For some inexplicable reason I can’t fathom no one’s done that yet with their games. I’d wager it’d get real popular real quick.
