He might just wait for stable update to come out, which could take a while ( maybe 5 to 10 months)

Is there any plans for updating this mod to B42?

cool story bro
FenFenScreeScree 14 Aug, 2023 @ 10:30pm 
(forgive my spam, BUT, everything below is my recommendation on how to play with this mod, based off my expertise on 28 days/weeks later)q
FenFenScreeScree 14 Aug, 2023 @ 10:29pm 
the advanced options, well, they shouldn't travel, because when infected are idle they tend to just chill out until they hear a noise or see a clean person. have them only follow sound up to like 200 units, since, again, they're easily distracted.

Now, as for loot, vehicles, etc, that's up to you. Just remember that even before the virus started spreading, there were riots. The infected just made it worse.
FenFenScreeScree 14 Aug, 2023 @ 10:29pm 
So, yeah. Turn that population down.

4. obviously they're sprinters, make them strong, but make them fragile as well. Make their hearing pinpoint, because they do hear EVERYTHING. Make their sight poor. Make their memory short, since again, easily distracted. Have them all climb under cars, trigger house alarms, drag you down, lunge over fences, but not pretend to be dead; the Infected don't do that. they're active at all times, since the Worsley House attack happened at night of course.
FenFenScreeScree 14 Aug, 2023 @ 10:29pm 
Jim woke up in Saint Thomas Hospital, across Westminster bridge, clear past Parliament, up through Whitehall, to the Duke of York's Steps, RIGHT THROUGH F-ING PICCADILLY CIRCUS, ONE OF THE BUSIEST PLACES IN LONDON, passes Scotland Yard, goes through trafalgar square, leicester square, into Soho, before FINALLY seeing his first group of Infected in St Anne's Church. He walked 1.5 miles, taking 30 minutes roughly, and the entire time he was screaming HELLO at the top of his lungs, and not one infected came running after him until he woke up a small group that was just chilling among some dead bodies in a church a mile and a half from where he woke up.
FenFenScreeScree 14 Aug, 2023 @ 10:29pm 
Why turn population down? Well, think about it: The virus takes so little time to spread, but at the same time, the infected are also incredibly violent, and the military often takes up a scorched earth tactic to contain them. They're easier to kill, and often times will accidentally kill their victims through brute force or biting them in the throat or tearing through other vital veins/arteries; it's a hemorrhagic fever so bleeding out doesn't take much time. Also consider that in the movie, when Jim left the hospital, the streets of central London were **EMPTY.**
FenFenScreeScree 14 Aug, 2023 @ 10:29pm 
Here's my recommendation for making things as close to the movie as possible:
1: turn off respawns. Remember, they starve.
2: Turn decaying up to the max. Again, they starve, meaning they get weaker and weaker; in PZ the zombies won't starve to death but you can simulate them becoming emaciated.
3: Turn the population setting WAY down. I'm talking 0.1, to even as low as 0.05. No migration, because they tend to stay in the same place unless triggered by a noise, for example, gunshots or helicopters. no peak days either since it spreads so fast.
FenFenScreeScree 14 Aug, 2023 @ 10:29pm 
Lastly, the infected may not have any regard for their own well being, but they're not completely unstoppable. They WILL die from being shot in the vital organs, it just might take longer than a typical human. A heart shot would kill them within 5-10 seconds, as normal, but a lung shot may take them half an hour to die, as they'll be drowning on their own blood, while in the mean time still trying to kill or infect you. A gutshot could take a day or more. A headshot is still an instant kill. So, generally, aiming center mass and putting a few rounds through them is more than enough to stop them.
FenFenScreeScree 14 Aug, 2023 @ 10:28pm 
The infected are relentless, as I stated before, but they are also easily distracted, so a random noise or seeing another uninfected will likely draw their attention away, unless you're the one that's closer/easier to get to; they always take the path of least resistance. They might have good hearing, but their eyesight is debatable, as their eyes are noticeably bloodshot. They bleed from all orifices constantly, including their eyes.

They also scream quite a bit when they run. This mod will give you what you want, just follow the instructions: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3009986824
FenFenScreeScree 14 Aug, 2023 @ 10:27pm 
So a few things to note about the infected in 28 Days Later: they starve. The average infected died of starvation after five weeks, because as a general rule, they do not actively seek self nourishment, they only seek to spread the virus, and to lash out. They HATE the uninfected with a dying passion. They will stop at nothing to infect you.

The virus only takes up to 30 seconds to fully infect you and turn you into one of them. It's horrifically fast. Per Selena, you have to be willing to kill your friends in a heartbeat if they become infected; you don't have time to wait.

@Mr Beans Hey, I'm sorry to sk this but I'm curious. Is this another Challenge mode like Facility 7, an will you be updating this at all if it is not like Facility 7??
BreakUrSelf 14 Feb, 2023 @ 1:51pm 
Hey mate. Love the mod, but getting this every time>

function: CharacterCreate -- file: HospitalSpawn.lua line # 24 | MOD: Bean's 28 days Challenge (Rosewood) Spawn
function: OnStart -- file: HospitalSpawn.lua line # 10 | MOD: Bean's 28 days Challenge (Rosewood) Spawn

something to worry about?
Mr Beans  [author] 27 Jan, 2023 @ 10:31am 
@lunarc I think you now start with the gown on but I have not messed with this in a long time.
Lunarc 26 Jan, 2023 @ 9:58pm 
whats funny is that you say equip the hospital gown but really, i think we should start naked as your just gonna find one anyway if you wanted to stay true to the source material but i doubt that
Grimsonite 7 Jan, 2023 @ 12:19pm 
Enabled this mod mid game and my new characters (the ones I create after death in the same save game) don't seem to have the spawns from this mod. Not a game-breaking bug but something I had to mention.
Krarus 18 Dec, 2022 @ 9:48am 
this works perfectly with the Burn Ward Patient start from the more traits mod
BargainSale 13 Dec, 2022 @ 4:41pm 
I dont know if its intended or not, but with this mod active, every character of mine om every location starts with the hospital gown
Mr Beans  [author] 5 Jun, 2022 @ 1:00pm 
@easYplaY I wish I know how to do it.
sammyfourtwenty 3 Jun, 2022 @ 5:28pm 
wolf costum starting condition can help u also to spawn with zombies inside the spawn objekt, and i recommend it also for more realism together with this mod
sammyfourtwenty 3 Jun, 2022 @ 5:23pm 
i think spawning on the roof then u have zombies inside, i know it from the ohio mall spawn mod if u spawn on the roof the mall has zombies.
sammyfourtwenty 3 Jun, 2022 @ 5:18pm 
hey there, is the louisvlle hospital spawn only in the same hospital or rng hospitals all over louisville?

Rosewood Starts you in March Ridge for some reason.
Mr Beans  [author] 31 Jan, 2022 @ 11:49am 
Delete the clothing file ;)
PandaGuyRead 28 Jan, 2022 @ 8:55pm 
Is there a way to make the hospital gown optional again? Would rather spawn with my chosen clothing..
Mr Beans  [author] 17 Jan, 2022 @ 3:09pm 
I'm close to working out how to get zeds to spawn in the hospital
Mr Beans  [author] 15 Jan, 2022 @ 11:59am 
@porksoda113 I was hoping for the same thing. But I'm not a skilled moder. :(
porksoda113 14 Jan, 2022 @ 7:23pm 
Great job, just what I was looking for to re-create the opening of the Walking Dead or 28 Days Later. I know the game removes the zombies from the building you spawn in, but it would be cool if at least a few zombies spawned in some of the other hospital rooms.
LEGEND OF ALL 8 Jan, 2022 @ 2:46pm 
Oh my thanks for the super fast update. 10/10
Mr Beans  [author] 8 Jan, 2022 @ 2:42pm 
@LEGEND OF ALL Love the idea, Just updated the mode. now you can spawn in one of two Hospitals in Louisville and others around the map.
LEGEND OF ALL 8 Jan, 2022 @ 12:34pm 
Great mod. wish it was all hospitals though not just luisville
Mr Beans  [author] 8 Jan, 2022 @ 1:17am 
Cool. Did ya do the proper start in the hospital gown?
RaRaRazuri 7 Jan, 2022 @ 7:01pm 
my friends and i just played this scenario and tried to escape Louiseville, it was a lot of fun, thanks!
