I haven't heard any crying or whimpering sounds, the closest are dying light's virals. but most of their sounds are of aggression, maybe you could search some sound libraries, make them yourself or hire voice actors. (if you can of course)

Ight bud, good luck @Eliasas

Im doing exacly that, thank you!!!

Oh yeah, there are a surprising amount of textures.
Remember to take advantage of brushes and opacity to make blood.

Gimp has a brush that looks like a splatter, and I reduce the opacity, to create a sort of gradient for the blood.
Without gradient blood can look too cartoony.

Krita should have a similar thing.

Im using Krita (maybe Ill change to GIMP later) and using your humanized zomboids mod as base, im making them mad and full of blood depending on the stage of infection. when Im done, Ill let you know and Ill show you, this is going to take some time tho I didnt know there was that much textures. I guess that its time to enjoy the process. Thank you for letting other people create their own things with your creations, thats awesome.

You could give it a shot.
I have a tutorial in one of my collections.

It would likely be easier to start from scratch with a photoediting software.

ok I was checking the files and they are not rage virus lore friendly for me to work on them but they still look cool af

hey man, I think Im going to make it myself, Ill use your textures but Ill keep it to me like a personal mod if that doesnt bother you, if you give me your permission I could post it obviously giving you credit

oh thats cool, im waiting for the b42 update. if you use exactly this textures to make a Rage virus retexture with angry faces that would be dope

Making them not angry was actually an intentional design choice.

The Rage infected have a form of Rabies, they are disoriented, and hyper aggressive.

Pine Maddness infected, are scared, and confused. Crying, and whimpering is something I want to add as the sounds they make.
Their aggression comes from the fact they aren't the one at the wheel anymore, something is puppeting them while they feel all the pain.

I tried to make them have a worried expression in the earlier stages, then mute their expression in the later stages to make them appear blank.

could you make them have angry faces? like the 28 days later ones? I think that moving their brows in an angle should do enough

this mod is truly horrifying, thank you for making this.

There's another version someone made for b42.
I'm still waiting for a few more patches.

b42?

I may eventually, but I don't want to promise anything because my motivation to do things is very unreliable.

I do want to get a Dying Light retexture done first, once I'm able to play the game again.
I've been putting it off since it's gonna be very difficult, but I want to give it my best shot.

can you make a the last of us style retexture? something more in line with that where its still human looking but obviously overtaken by a fungus

Thank you

that's terrifying

horrifying man. this is what i call a good work

okk thanks for the answer !

When Build42 is in a stable enough state. I can't even play it. It just freezes and crashes.

hey when are you going to update to b42 ?

this guy wondering why a mod won't work in a completely updated version of an engine, Born of birch, kill this guy now

You using build 42?

Can't get to work. I have no other zombie texture mods downloaded. Where should it be on the load order?

god can you imagine you start limping and your vision suddenly goes blurry? horrifying

Not a bad idea.
I'll look into it to see if it can be done.

you could make infection symptoms mods sometime! pine madness paired with the new vision mechanics of build 42 could make turning an even scarier experience

oh Born of Birch, why do your addons go so hard?

Alr got it

In just a second, i'm having PC trouble. Don't worry it's really easy to do luckily

Will this be updated for Build 42?

I had heavy inspiration from Cabin Fever.
I also used medical images of the hemorrhagic rashes caused by Ebola to get a good idea of the colors, and symptoms to use.

I'm not squeamish so I can use the disease itself as reference.
I also learned alot about Ebola's history while making this. So it was a petty good learning experience as well.

huh. this based on anything specific? Shit's hardcore

This retexture is a favourite of mine, I like the detail of blood streaks from the eyes and wounds, it makes the Zombies seem more modern, more like something relatable to the L4D'S green flu rather than the classic Romero zombies.

i really hope you make a dying light retexture one day

ok

I really hope to, but I currently only know how to swap existing textures.
I'd need a new zombie and new textures.
I'll need to do this when I finally figure out blender and Lua.
Once I do that there's alot I plan to do, once I'm no longer limited to 2d.

you should make your own volatile mod one day

yeah you did :D

Well done, Birch. Killed it again.

ill wait until you make dying light themed retexture

I don't quite understand your question mark but alright

um ok thx?

Since my mods work on textures they shouldn't need compatibility patches.

I'm glad someone added volatiles, it gives me even more motivation to do a Dying Light themed retexture.

there is also a mod that adds the volatile into the game if you want to add a compatibility patch https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3328429524

I plan to have them start out looking like virals then transition into biters.
Speed should be able to be adjusted through a mod.
I'll need to find one to use.

i hope you add the textures of the common zombies in dying light biters and virals

thx

I plan to, my drawing software is on the fritz right now.
As soon as I get it back up and running its one of the projects I want to get started.
