pyrothijs Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Hi and to the forums. Actually you found two seperate events. Those are easter eggs that only happen on one day in the year. The zombie thing only happens on the 31st of october and the fire works only happen on the 31st of december. There is however a trick you can use to play with these events on any day of the year. You can change the number in the <IgnoreDate value="0" /> line to 1 and save the file. That way the event can take place on any day. Or if you just want to try and see what it looks like, simply change the date on your PC to the 31st of october or december and start the game. (Don't forget to change the date back afterwards). You can try this with all mods, it's not specific for the Los Angeles mod, it's something the original game producers put in. Topic moved to EM4 general section.

Ami89E1234 Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 no its because some events were specifically made for Deluxe, as well as 3 missions, a new freeplay map, and some other stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest turnofftape Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 How do you actually enable the zombies? They're not spawning at the church. I went into Freeplayparameters.xml and changed <Enabled value = "0" /> and <IgnoreDate value = "0" /> to 1. is there something i'm missing? I can't wait to try it.

I can't wait to try it.It's a random event, It can happen at any time, you just need to wait a bit until the event shows up, maybe you could try to increase the event frequency a little higher? So it can happen a little more often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfoundking Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 It is programmed to happen if the system date is 10/31 AKA Hallowe'en Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ami89E1234 Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 you can change whether or not it does only occur on Halloween. although how come whenever I edit my freeplay files they almost never take effect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

festival Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 i found a way to have the zombie mod instead of having the deluxe version.Go into the editor,place some pedestrian and go into their properite ,then edit their traits and then tick the zombie box.Here you are you ve got zombvie in the normal freeplay!!i tried that and it took the zombie a while to make a kill, but it worked.For those experienced in the modding side, is it possible to mod police so they open fire automatically, like overwatch? So maybe you setup a barricade and if a zombie approached it, they opened fire? Been a while since i fiddled with the editor and dont remember much that i learnt, which wasnt alot to start with lol.
