I have searched and searched but i can't find anywhere how to modify the scripts to stop these from spawning. I have looked in the spawning scripts and it doesn't make any sense whats in there. I want to make it so they don't spawn at all ever. And incase i am using the wrong zombie name i mean the ones that come when you fire a gun or blow something up. Would really like some help please.

I finally figured this out now. What you do is in the common_spawn_presets every line you see with viral in it for example :



AIPreset("ViralHumanity_Man_OldTown;ViralHumanity_Woman_OldTown")



change this to



AIPreset("Biter_Man;Biter_Woman")



and delete the lines :



DiffLvlTableName("Viral_Man;Viral_Woman")



and delete the lines



BannedAreaAttribs("NOISE_SPAWN_BLOCKER")

I have searched and searched but i can't find anywhere how to modify the scripts to stop these from spawning. I have looked in the spawning scripts and it doesn't make any sense whats in there. I want to make it so they don't spawn at all ever. And incase i am using the wrong zombie name i mean the ones that come when you fire a gun or blow something up. Would really like some help please.

Hello, I was looking for common_spawn_presets for a while after seeing this post and could not find it could you tell me please were the file is found it would be greatly appreciated, thanks

Is this confirmed???? I hate the virals....

Yes, this works.

 

I am not sure if you have to delete all the lines i did but this worked for me. You do still hear the sounds that happen when they used to spawn though. I don't know how to stop that yet.

I tried to find a way to do this for the past hour and a half, no luck. :(

I did not delete the

BannedAreaAttribs("NOISE_SPAWN_BLOCKER")

Line & it seems to work fine.

I would like to know also how to disable the screamo/metal scream sound effect that comes from making a disturbance. I cannot seem to locate where it's housed. May have looked right at it, but did not recognize it as the culprit.

In a game where you can McGyver a weapon that burns/electrocutes/poisons enemies, craft exploding ninja stars, create freezing grenades, etc, you cannot make a simple ghetto suppressor out of a pop bottle & duct tape. WTF. I would like to know where to silence weapons & not just the audio, as I did find that, kind of fun shooting a double barrel shotgun with no sound other than the projectiles tearing through zombie guts, but the attraction level so that it makes a little audio ring on mini map.

You can change the noise type for each weapon listed in inventory.scr and inventory_gen.scr. It's usually the last line of each weapon script. You can also adjust the noise types themselves (like the loudness as perceived by zombies). I don't have the files in front of me right now, but I believe the noise types are defined in hdr_snd_groups.

Oh, ok. I did find it before, shotgun for example, in the inventory_gen.scr file.

NoiseType HEAVY_SHOT

I tried disabling it with // in front as well as at the end.

Even tried deleting it, but had no change ingame, so I gave up on it. I do see in the inventory.scr file, though, that some items have NoiseType NONE. I will give that a try.

I will look again in the hdr file. Hopefully find a way to disable the "Virals are Coming" sound.

Thanks for the direction!

 

Update:

Replacing with NONE does not, at least alone, seem to do anything & have unable to silence/suppress weapon fire.

Thanks to the direction of leatherneck0297

I believe, for anyone interested, that I have found the viral spawn alert.

In the hdr_snd_groups.scr file.

This file is found in data\scripts\audio

Locate

SoundGroup("infected_upset_alarmed_exterior")

Line 6437

Change the volume to (0.0)

 

Now I do still hear a hint of some other sounds that came with the alert. But it very minimal & I don't mind. I don't hear the screaming & crashing. I'm sure you could look around this area with the "Spawn" wording & see if you can disable it completely.

Thanks to jermeysniperjer123 & leatherneck0297

I now have a viral free gaming experience. Sounds like I just got back from the doctor with good news. :laugh:

Will Update if I find that I am in error.
