More Zombie Death Animations (B41)

Have you ever felt like cutting down a horde of zombies felt a little underwhelming? Perhaps seeing the same death animation repeat over and over again took away some of the fun and enjoyment that you would have otherwise gotten. Thanks to this mod, cutting down hordes of zombies will be as exciting as ever, featuring both quick and dramatic death animations to enhance your zombie slaying experience.

Features:
-Changes and adds various zombie death animations utilizing unused developer assets. (five in total)
-The animations are tied to a zombie's walk animation, allowing for more animation variety than in vanilla.
-Works with melee, ranged, and even throwable weapons
-Works with zombies who die to fire and explosives
-Compatible with popular animation mods such as Authentic Animations, True Actions, and
Fancy Handwork
-Should be fully compatible with any mod that doesn't make changes to the zombie death animations or the zombie falldown and walktoward folders

Important: This mod works best when zombie speed is set to fast shamblers (default) or sprinters. Zombies set to shambler speed will only have three out of the five death animations.

Works with multiplayer. Server-sided.
Safe to add or remove from an existing save game.

Information Regarding Build 42:

Hello everyone,

First of all, I just wanted to thank all of you for the support and kind words in the comment section. I'm glad my mod was able to bring enjoyment to your various Zomboid playthroughs. As I have stated previously, I was originally planning to update this mod to build 42 as long as the developers didn't make any major changes to the animation system.

However, during my brief testing of build 42's unstable build, it seems that the developers have completely overhauled the part of the animation system that I made modifications to. Their new system seems to take both the weapon type and swing direction into account when a zombie is killed, making my mod inferior to their new system. Additionally, the animation rework that the developers introduced in build 42 was actually my original goal when making this mod. 

It is for these reasons that I have decided to not update this mod to build 42. It will stay on the Steam page for those of you who prefer to play on build 41, but it will not receive any further updates.

Thanks again for the support, and have fun in build 42!
