I really like the idea of this mod, with hundreds of zombies clustered together and moving throughout the map, but holy crap, every time even one of them appears near me, my computer(which runs games pretty well) begins to die.

@everyone Does any know if I could somehow set a start day for the hordes to start appearing? I love this mod but for start game It's a lot. I was hoping that someone could paste a code down for me for them to not spawn in until day 10. I'd appreciate it.

@DGZYT I'm sure he wouldn't mind as long as he is credited. But I understand asking for permission. I think this is a great mod that is way long overdue for an update. Definitely needs to rework the whole keeping track of them system. too much work on the game if it is constantly tracking them at all times. Maybe make them a random event if possible. If anyone with modding experience was to work on an update for this pls link it here. I'd be the first to subscribe. FR
DGZYT 25 Sep, 2023 @ 7:18am 
@derLoko I would love to update the mod since no updates have been made in the last few years. Would you be okay with this?

@hiryu Great mod suggestion, hopefully mod man or someone of modding experience tries that!

@BaseyTM
Uhhh... You do know this doesn't actually use your GPU for any meaningful calculations outside of literally just sending video signal? 99% of this game runa on CPU.

I feel like this mod is overcomplicated. Just make one in 2000 zombies a great leader, who can group up to 200 zombies, instead of regular 20. The hordes will group eventually and it will be much more natural
jabberjay 24 Feb, 2023 @ 6:37pm 
Me when.. a large amount of CPU intensive entities on an already poorly optimized GAME give me issues with lag??? cry some more basey.
Whitefang 2 Jan, 2023 @ 7:11am 
can i alter the size of the hordes?
rigor mortis 9 Nov, 2022 @ 7:30pm 
for the love of fucking god optimize this mod. i have a 3070 and it still lags

how does hordes alpha work around zombie migration rules in and out of the cell
Orange Elite 2 Oct, 2022 @ 12:44pm 
i wish you could edit the hordes. like size and how often they respawn

если хочешь анус в огне мод для тебя,спойлер зомби респавняться около тебя от 100шт

mod does not really work for co-op/multiplayer because its client side or something and the zombies will not be shared for all players unfortunately
Acid Green 17 Apr, 2022 @ 2:48am 
does this work in co-op?
Kafkatrap 13 Feb, 2022 @ 6:50am 
@derLoko hello? Does this work for 41.65 MP?
Rick Grimes 4 Feb, 2022 @ 5:33am 
really wish this mod worked
Dislodged 25 Jan, 2022 @ 11:01pm 
Would love to see someone update this!
BJDware 11 Jan, 2022 @ 9:49pm 
Anyone got this working as intended on MP?
agio2070 10 Jan, 2022 @ 9:00am 
this is such a cool mod. in single player with respawn turned off, its so boring when you spend most of the time around your base. no zombie ever touches the walls of your base after a few weeks of building it
Dr.Macari 8 Jan, 2022 @ 12:07am 
This mod was great. I wish for a good soul to bring it back to life.

Anyone tried this in MP? I can see the horde but they all just disappear.
Also the ability to control the number of hordes would be good, as it seems they overrun the cities.

Ninefinger 2 Jan, 2022 @ 3:08am 
Just an idea for this type of mod, I dont know if its possible but I was thinking instead of having to worry about zombie stuff spawning and controlling them, maybe you could simulate hordes using a silent helicopter event that the zombies can hear but the player cant and the modded helicopter is basically a loud slow traveling zombie attractor that picks a random path to travel strait across the map causing the zombies to follow it.

hey can you update this when possible? I think it is a cool mod just needs some updating and patching or could you like hand it over to someone who has time to work on it? just asking.

was searching a gas station and wondered why my game was a little laggy. went outside and i saw god
SteelCityCaesar 22 Sep, 2021 @ 6:57am 
Was really excited to see my first horde shortly after installing. Walked round a corner, there's another and another and oh look that one has crashed in to one going the other way and of look there's another behind me now. Its just too much. There were hundreds of zeds in all directions within 15 minutes of starting.

We need this mechanic in the original game
tr1ck 11 Jun, 2021 @ 10:11am 
This mod probably renders every single zombie that it spawns, regardless if it even near to the player which causes the game to become absolutely unplayable.
Necart 10 Jun, 2021 @ 9:38am 
Dont install this mod if u dont want fck up your game, hordes will spawn almost near you and drop your FRS close to zero.
Chief Whoopa of the Kickazs Clan 8 Jun, 2021 @ 1:09am 
Does this horde track you down? just wanna know how it works.
Shot of Depresso 7 Jun, 2021 @ 9:26pm 
This is less of a wandering horde and more of "horde that stays around you and constantly swings by.:"
Creator 20 May, 2021 @ 9:45pm 
Hi author! Thank you for this awesome mod! Will it be updated in the future?
Jackey 14 May, 2021 @ 3:20pm 
Holy shit. When I literally just attached the yacht with the truck that I used. Somehow a huge horde just magically appeared and made huge fps dropped to like 10. It made quite unplayable for me. I would love if there were some an horde size or something like that.
Nehax 7 May, 2021 @ 4:12am 
Am I the only one experiencing HUGE frame drop when a hordes is nearby ? I have good specs, 144 fps all the time, but when the hordes spawn, it drops to 17 fps or lower, basically making the game a slideshow.
Vaeringjar 3 May, 2021 @ 8:01am 
"Hordes ignore player-built structures when the player isn't in the area"

how the hell is that even an issue? This "zombies magically know what is a players and attack it" is honestly just unimmersive nonsense
TrashCabbage 6 Apr, 2021 @ 7:20pm 
Would be really cool if we could choose from a few different options of horde size. I have a pretty decent pc which runs PZ with max zombies just fine normally, and still experience pretty big fps drops in some areas due to the size of the hordes in addition to the zombies who are spawned naturally. Or maybe it is the path finding that causes the fps drops instead of the size of the hordes.

My other suggestion is to make their movements more random as opposed to set patrol paths.

It's a really cool mod though and exactly what this game needs, especially in late game. Thanks
It'sPaperBagMan 3 Apr, 2021 @ 1:05pm 
awesome mod unfortunately with my mod list it cause massive frame rate drop even when horde arent in sight or straight up crashes
samthekashman 31 Mar, 2021 @ 2:44pm 
Awesome mod!
gonomonakak 16 Mar, 2021 @ 1:01pm
