This is AWESOME. But you will need new skins for zombies etc. It would be cool if you added the Bloodstone (from The Nether) in a room as a torture room. :tongue.gif:
Bloodstone is how I plan on making buildings seem to be on fire.
So my question: if I made a custom texture pack, would you use it?
ZOMBIETOWN
The name is subject to change.
The Idea: You wake up in small city that has been totally ravaged. Stepping outside you see that the streets are utterly crawling with zombies and other nasty creatures. Armed with nothing but your wits and bare hands, you must find a way to survive for as long as possible.
The Environment: The city was at one time a modern metropolis. Walking down the streets you see incredibly high skyscrapers, train systems, highways, bridges, everything a city needed to flourish. Everything is in disarray however, and most things no longer work. The buildings stand dark and empty, the trains are derailed, the bridges in partial collapse. Oh, and theres lots of zombies.
Supplies: While you will start off with nothing, there will be many tools and materials available in almost every building. Food, weapons, lighting, everything will be plentiful. At first. Be warned: resources are finite in the city. When you use them up, they're gone.
You: You start of in an area that, fortunately, still has power. Zombies hate the light, and you are relatively safe. However, there isnt much available in the area to sustain you. will you brave the dark heart of the city?
PROGRESS
As of now, I have created a 300x300x75 adminium cube (with an open top for light). while the cube is sort of an eyesore, it was the only way I could think of to keep players INSIDE the city. (Yes it reaches sky limit. Dont try building up and out)
I have filled the bottom 25 layers of the cube with smooth stone (which will later feature subway tunnels and such)
The building where you will start and respawn is completed. (Screenshot below)
The next closest building is complete. It is heavily damaged.
ETA
At the current rate I am building, I could foresee this being done in a month or less.
Of course, me being a college student means that something could quickly change and I wont be able to build on this for two weeks or more.
So the ETA for now is very broad. Sometime between Thanksgiving and Christmas is when I hope to release this. Sound good? No? Good!
i would use a texture pack for this, as long as it worked well with the scenarios D:
if it looked like.. too cartoony, then it wouldn't feel right for the Zombie game, so i'd just use my own pack.
but if ya can make on that looks sweet, i'll use it :biggrin.gif:
Not cartoony at all. evil. very very evil. Like shitting pants scary evil.
Sounds like a neat idea, my only problem with it is that surviving in minecraft means, going inside, underground, or ontop of something, not really a difficult thing to achieve. Maybe you have ideas to get around this, though im having a hard time coming up with any. Also, the goal seems to be to survive as long as you can, is there any way that could be recorded or something?? Once again, i love the idea, but I am having a hard time visualizing it.

Anywhere dark is going to be crawling with zombies. Inside, on top of hings, ESPECIALLY underground. Im hacking in spawners and hiding them all over the place. (Yes, you could be a cheap ******* and destroy them, but thatd ruin the whole point.
Plus building yourself a good shelter will be almost impossible because tool crafting is impossible. (No wood is present on the map. At all.)
As for recording time alive...I dont have any way to do do that so im going to just trust that you're being honest.
hmm i really want to play zombietown now lol, have you gotten spawners to work at all? im just assuming they are really broke or something, i put them on a multiplayer server, then played it on single, they have fire and everything but nothing spawns. also, how do you determine what spawner, spawns what? maybe this isnt the place to be asking m but i guess its relevant : D p.s. if you ever needed help building or anything id be willing to

LolEditor can make spawn blocks spawn specific mobs.
I'm not sure what the point really is. One can survive indefinitely by finding a corner and placing a few blocks..
Oh sure, if you want to take the chickenshit way out

yeah i figured it out : D Will we be able to build??
Well seeing as the city is made out of stone mostly...which cant be harvested without picks...and there is no wood available to craft said picks...or even make a table...You wont be able to build without getting VERY creative.
It'd be kind of interesting to have some form of escape possible. But I'd understand if you just wanted it to be a "survive as long as possible kind of thing." Especially if stuff like hunger becomes possible. This could be especially cool in SMP, in small numbers.

Im debating having a sort of "you win" thing. Maybe escape, or reaching the source of the outbreak, or something.
Once the polls get fixed Ill throw one up about a victory scenario.

The poll is broken and keep reposting my old question or choices. How do I fix it?
I'd much rather not use a texture pack

Subways wil be inoperable, but just LOADED with valuable things. Oh and zombies. LOTS of zombies.
BTW added a 3rd screenshot.

Besides, escaping to the country side should be an option... you STILL may have to enter the city to find supplies though... ^-^
