Are you trying to load that mod into a19.5? If so there are too many reasons to list why that wont work. The good news is that mods author is working on a 19.5 version of it.

By default, the icon shown is name matched to the block name. So if there is no icon property for a block name Ralph, the game looks for an icon named Ralph. The vanilla electricalfensepost is that way. But your copy has a new name, and no default matching icon, so you would need to either reference the default icon in a customicon property or make a new icon and refer to that in your mods icon folder.

Updated the 2-effectspack to 19.5.1 to fix vanilla zombies not having sounds.

yes, increase the probability values in the entitygroups.xml files in whichever packs you want to increase the spawning

The NPCs are overhauled for A20, with a new human AI used rather than the zombie AI used in A19. All 3 concerns should be fixed in A20. I will check on item 1, as that sounds like it broke in 19.5 which I havent tested. Well, just tested and it seems even unhired ones no longer attack zombies, so the faction based targeting might have broke in 19.5. Will look into that.

Could just be randomness, could be the mod isnt loading., could be another mod is editing the entity groups. Hard to say without more information or logs.

Spiders are in the 0-creaturepackAnimals mod. Is that loaded? If so, spiders should spawn at any level in the desert, forest, or wasteland.

Not impossible.

The NPC pack characters are recruitable. Coins for humans, meat for animals.

in the creaturepacks, animals are just vanilla animals, and behave like vanilla animals. Are you asking about the NPC animals?

If I recall you needed the exoskeleton ( power armor ) for that zone. There are videos for that suit, and you can upgrade it.

CreaturePack zombies replicate the TFP zombies in feature almost exactly. Only thing they dont do is make footstep sounds reliably, which is fixed in the NPC version and will be fixed in the A20 version. Snufkin type zombies are TFP vanilla zombies with additional prefabs attached, so should work the same as vanilla zombies they are based on. UMA zombies like the ones in this pack, wont have several newer features added to the TFP zombies, like the vehicle colliders and normal ragdolling. They may also not have the stumble when falling behavior, but in general they function well enough for good gameplay.

The update was just pushed.

Make sure you dont pick one of these zombie archtypes as your player character.

I heard in passing that loot would be referenced by name not ID number, so this shouldn't be an issue in the future.

Really well done! Not sure the install instructions would work, as I converted my copy to a standard mod format., but let me know if thats an issue.

Welcome back to modding Three08, you were missed.

Look at the creaturepackzombie xml for how to setup the xpath. You need to target the zombie AND the probabilities. For example: <insertAfter xpath="/entitygroups/entitygroup[ starts-with(@name, 'zombieHospitalGroupGS')]/entity[@name='zombieBoeFeral' and @prob='0.1']"> <entity name="zombieGuppyDoctor01Feral" prob=".01" /> <entity name="zombieGuppyDoctor02Feral" prob=".01"/> <entity name="zombieGuppyDoctor03Feral" prob=".01"/> <entity name="zombieGuppyDoctor04BlackFeral" prob=".01"/> <entity name="zombieGuppyDoctorFemale01Feral" prob=".01" /> <entity name="zombieGuppyDoctorFemale02Feral" prob=".01" /> </insertAfter> <insertAfter xpath="/entitygroups/entitygroup[ starts-with(@name, 'zombieHospitalGroupGS')]/entity[@name='zombieBoeFeral' and @prob='0.2']"> <entity name="zombieGuppyDoctor01Feral" prob=".02" /> <entity name="zombieGuppyDoctor02Feral" prob=".02"/> <entity name="zombieGuppyDoctor03Feral" prob=".02"/> <entity name="zombieGuppyDoctor04BlackFeral" prob=".02"/> <entity name="zombieGuppyDoctorFemale01Feral" prob=".02" /> <entity name="zombieGuppyDoctorFemale02Feral" prob=".02" /> </insertAfter> Just 2 sample entries of many, but you can see that in the hospitalgroup, it looks for a zombie named zombieBoeFeral, and a specific probability, and if found it appends one or more new zombies with a specific spawn probability.

warnings are nothing to worry about. Thats because the effects pack is designed to work on the creature pack with or without the NPCpacks

do both groups have exactly the same probability of spawning zombieJoe? - yes does myGroup1, myGroup2 and myGroup3 all have the exact same probability to spawn zombieJoe? - yes

You cant change the volume of individual sounds in xml.

I think that would be very difficult to write. There are so many ways to change a property using xpath.

Its still 1000 coins for human npcs, but you can change that in xml. Its meat for animals.

Jumping is hard coded and the devil to work around. We struggle to get our NPC characters not to act like jumping beans.

Why would you want to adjust mass? Mass is a ragdoll property.
