Description
I found the Crawler zombie to be rather useless and not much of a threat; it's mainly just annoying due to its goofy animations. This mod transforms the Crawler into a 'screamer' that, upon spotting you, lures zombies within a certain radius.

Sprinter zombies now emit a subtle sound while idling, making it easier to distinguish them if they haven't yet spotted you. Once they do, they produce a distinctive noise. Additionally, there is an option to enable 'Relentless' sprinters, which will continuously emit sound while pursuing you. By default, these sounds do not attract other zombies, but the sandbox option is available for customization.

While it's not mandatory, I designed this mod with the intention of using it alongside the random zombies mod, keeping the sprinter and crawler population relatively low.

I drew inspiration from Zenith's 'The Last of Us' sound mod for the sprinter's idle and chasing sounds. My goal was to create something similar, specifically tailored for sprinters. This mod is written in Lua, so manual installation is not required.

Known issue: Occasionally, when playing with high sprinter population settings, upon loading the game, the idling sound clips may play once. At my current level of knowledge of lua, I don't know why this happens.

Love the idea, but JEEEZE the volume is loud! The screamer Z was not the somewhat subtle cry in the video, but instead a teenaged girl standing there screaming in a horror movie watching her bff get repeatedly st*bbed. Same with the sprinters but not as jump scarish, just loud and like another comment stated "sexual" lol.
I encountered the bug on start of a lot of sprinter idle noises and I was playing at only 3 or 5% sprinters. But everything seemed to work just fine, just don't play this in the middle of the night with all the lights off wearing headphones and volume at 100. This is how you died!

why do they got that goofy jumpscare sound for when they notice you?

Is there a way you can change the volume of the screams? They are SUPER loud for some reason.

Great mod, but man those sprinter idle sounds are pretty sexual sounding lmao. I had to turn those off immediately.

@tr1ck thank you. this mod has been exactly what im looking for. however, could you perhaps add a option to disable the initial "Spotted scream" while still having them emit noise while being idle, and chasing you?
