Left 4 Dead Map Idea - Minecraft Zombies

Garry's Mod mapping
#1

Now, those of you who’ve played Minecraft know that as night falls, zombies show up. There are zombies in Left 4 Dead.

There are minecraft maps in Source. Now I’m not saying “hurr let’s add zombies to those maps and make them night yay”

I’m saying that someone could potentially make a great Left 4 Dead map, (or campaign, but that’d be a bit much unless you plan it out, or go like, day caves > night > night caves > night/dusk/dawn mountain and breakable house finale or something), all using a minecraft-esque landscape.

This isn’t a request, just an idea for anyone who doesn’t know what to do.

I also figured I’d write it down somewhere before I forgot about it.

I say you try it and see how it goes.

um…

Edit: Excuse myself for misunderstanding the thread. Seems like a good idead for a level, especially if someone knows how to script. Being able to make and arrange blocks would be a cool feature, but not sure if that can be done.

I should. I’m really lazy, but I could do it.

I said it was an idea for a campaign, and that is just one map that’s not even finished.

#5

Sounds good to me. Would this be for L4D2 or L4D?

#6

axe, pickaxe and sword need to be melee weapons
crossbow and flint and steel for ranged weapons

#7

Left 4 Dead 2, just because of melee weapons. However, I’m not about to go scripting anything into the game.

#8

No shit?

#9

As in to say, “Well, there are zombies here, and zombies here…”

I know I was being obvious, I was making a point.

#10

Sounds more like a gamemode to me.

#11

How so? He’s talking about a perfectly normal survival map or campaign with Minecraft based maps.

#12

I think it sounds sweet. Would be very interesting, especially since source looks better than minecraft.
I just hope its done right.

I’m…well, from experience, VERY bad at generating Navs. I know it’s stupid. But, the last time I tried it it broke my map. Even after compiling again. ):

So I have to wait until I can figure things out first…

If anyone wants to try it the idea is up for grabs, as long as you mention me somewhere.

I guess.
