S.T.A.L.K.E.R COP Zombie apocalypse mod Thread

Hey I noticed the game S.T.A.L.K.E.R Call of Pripyat is open world survival similar to fallout but less future based, and I thought a good idea could be taking out all the npc's and missions and have gear, weapons, and camps/outposts with npc guards which would be faction based and here is my mod idea:

So you would start at a random point but within a selected region, guns scattered throughout the map and there would just be zombies out and about.
The zombies wouldn't be fast like dawn of the dead but not slow like land of the dead they're fastest movement would be a bit faster then your jogging in game now stalker already has a sprint bar and detection system so it would work in my opinion.

Guns that are scattered would have half a clip in them and a chance that the gun has a ammo box next to it. Also guns would be spawned where you would expect to find them example: sniper rifle in a tower, or machine gun in the field. (you could still find ammo for weapons on its own but only in buildings ect)

Now i don't know if this would be possible but this game doesn't have a prone feature and the crouch is a push and hold, so i was thinking of possible changing it to just a 'push' motion and adding a prone feature in, but I don't know if that'd be possible to add/change.

The HUD would be taken out, all you would see is your ammo and hunger, thirst, radiation ect icons + the noise/vision detection. if you have a map or anything you would be able to check your map but nothing else.

Now a good feature in my opinion would be a stats text box on the side of the screen, it would feature your temperature, hunger, thirst ect also a 'tab' to player screen which shows players, and how long they have survived for in days/hrs/mins. (for temperature it'd have to have heat-pack objects or something.)

I would also like to take out the mini map in the mod and have a map, if found by player it will allow you to check your map. If you find the right artifact the map will detect heat like players, zombies, fire ect. now as I mentioned before you would have a temperature stat so keeping in low but not to low as to freeze you would make you harder to detect.

Now i don't think a 3rd person view could be added because the game doesn't have a 3rd person view in it to start with.

It would be nice to change the map size and make it bigger although that would require modeling skills to add more stuff in. (buildings ect)

This mod would also feature a texture increase..making the game's graphics allot better. (weather, terrain, objects ect.)

A more realistic gun sound and weather sounds ect would be looked at as well.

I know its similar to dayz but i still think it'd be quite good, I am also getting a mod which puts the other stalker's in this game so it has 37 new area's/maps and approx 200 extra guns...so having that mod run with this one would be really good. (S.M.R.T.E.R 0.45 is the next mod giving the 200 guns and 37 areas)

Please tell me what you guys think of this... thanks for reading

I may not be a modder, but I like your idea. I wish there was a prone feature and zombies sounds really fun. I hope someone does this mod! I love S.T.A.L.K.E.R call of Pripyat.

Thanks, im hoping to get enough likes for it, if it becomes popular enough I might beable to get a team and make this mod although itd take a while because i have the S.M.R.T.E.R Pripyat 0.41 mod and it has a heap more new areas areas but there not all connected..my mod would give you the whole map... allowing to run anywhere on the map not teleport between areas... which would take the longest haha

This is actually do-able man. You should go to the GSC forums, google it. Get an account and post this there, a man named insanelazarez could be able to help you

YES! Finally someone is thinking about a possible good zombie game! I was just thinking the other day about how STALKER could be changed in to a zombie thing. I'm no modder in anyway shape or form, but I could definitely come up with plenty of ideas to throw into this! Just try & keep it realistic as possible, cause if this project pulls through it could be the closet thing there is to an actual zombie apocalypse simulation.

Oh & for the graphics, I'd talk to the guys who did the MISERY mod.. That mod added so much more atmosphere & a hopeless feeling to it that it was amazing!

Actually making a stalker overhaul mod so that the game plays like dayZ is a pretty good idea. Soz I can't help you much as I've only been occasionally modding for about a year. The only problem is that stealth would be a major factor, and with this engine it wouldn't work also prone would be very difficult to implement, but everything else like the stashes and 3rd person is easily do-able

Look on GSC for advise: Gsc-game.com
