Zombie Master Beta 1.2.1 - Linux dedicated server
Jan 04, 2009 Server 1 commentServer-only version of ZM 1.2.0 for Linux servers.
Zombie Master In Short
Zombie Master is a multiplayer Half-Life 2 modification, centred around a zombie-apocalypse, which throws all but one player in the shoes of human survivors. Pitched against a relentless tide of rotting flesh, they must scavenge for weaponry and equipment just to stay alive. But that one player, chosen randomly at the beginning of the round, is not bound by mortal restraints.
To speak his name is to invite the wrath of hell - but most call him the 'Zombie Master'. He is nigh omnipotent. His invisible hand controls the legions of undead like puppets on strings; slowly closing the net on the humans while they run to and fro like rats in a maze.
Features
Human team:
* A wide range of weapons to scavenge such as shotguns, molotov cocktails, rifles and more
* A number of challenging objectives that encourage players to team up and work together
* The ability to interact with the environment to build barricades and carry objects
Zombie Master:
* Real Time Strategy gameplay; create and command your own undead horde
* A wide variation of zombie units encourages the ZM to adopt complex tactics
* Environmental "manipulates" allow the ZM to interact with the world in devilish ways
* Mysterious powers let the ZM manifest his power in a more direct fashion... for a price

Zombie Master 1.2.1 has been released, fixing many of the more pressing bugs present in version 1.2.0 and tweaking game balance.
Summary of the changes in 1.2.1:
The new version is only available as a full installer download. You do not need any previous versions of the mod installed. If you're new to ZM, do make sure you own a Steam game that includes the Source SDK Base. Most Valve games like HL2, TF2 and L4D do include this, so if you own one you are ready to play.

And i agree with Datastream on those issuse that is all i want if you ever update again so its easier to get rid of spamshees :\
BTW 1337Peen servers rule :)
I have a suggestment to my great makers of Zombie Master: Could you please add some more automatic weapons or military weapons (example - M4, AK47, Benelli M3 Super 90, Scar, Desert Eagle yea I said it :D, dual pistols maybe, and maybe a P90 just some more automatics you know a little variety) also please make it so the Mac10 can carry more spare ammo instead of just 3 clips (1 in gun 2 as spare). It would make me both a bigger fan and play it A LOT more than I do. That is if you ever update this game again.
Sincerly, Your #1 Fan Pkfrohman
You spend too much time spectating than fighting zombies or controlling them. And frankly, I tried being zombie master, and it was difficult to know what to do.
Line battle sucks. COMPLEELY OFFTOPIC
i hope they recover the files to make 2.0 :( great game none the less
Someone should totally make a map based on Saw. It would be awesome to go around the house with some friends while the Zombie Master player plays as Jigsaw, activating traps and challenges that the survivors must acomplish in order to escape from the house. Man that would be great..
One of my favourite HL2 mods. Definitely recommend the 1337peen servers for reliablity and awesome admin :D
This mod is awesome. But it has a lot of flaws regarding the hitboxes and zombies that need to be nerfed. Drifters attack effect needs to be nerfed. If you're surrounded you can't go anywhere and you're dead. Even by 1 drifter because you can't kill it if its hitting you.
Also the hitboxes I mentioned before. Someone needs to fix those. Really, you can only kill banshees if they're following you and you're walking away in a straight line. There is almost no way you can kill them if they're moving except for that way.
Other than that good game.
Ok, first of all, Zombie Master Black Edition has nothing to do with these developers. Second, these developers aren't going to update ZM any more, 1.2.1 is the final release. Third, this mod isn't dead. Well, people are playing it but obviously the zombies are fairly dead :P
And finally - IT'S AWESOME!!!
