Realistic Army Zombies (Updated for B42)

The infection is widespread in the Zone, and how it spreads is unknown.
We have seen soldiers in HazMat suits, however.
The US Army is taking absolutely no chances.

Military zombies have better and more "realistic" looking gear along with correct grooming standards. This mod gives the appearance of most zombified soldiers being in some elements of MOPP (mission oriented protective posture), as well as making helmets and other protective gear standard, as opposed to them being somewhat uncommon or absent in vanilla. Equipment is based off of PZ's lore and equipment from the early-mid 90s.

The majority of soldiers deployed in and around the Exclusion Zone, especially those operating with a risk of contact with infected, would likely be in MOPP 3/4. Several radio transcripts also explicitly point to the usage of camouflage hazard suits by the military. Currently, with vanilla assets, most zombified soldiers are depicted as being in the 'Mask Only' posture. This is not the case with the awesome SMUI assets, which I very much suggest downloading and using.

This may also make the game easier in that vests and helmets are easier to find when military zombies are encountered, though zombified soldiers do receive the benefit of wearing bulletproof armor.

All military zombies have a small chance of spawning with normal zombies after 2 weeks into the game otherwise they can be found on military installations, such as the

There are currently two alternate versions you can use (removed as of B42, will likely come back in the near future):

The compatibility mod for Shark's Military Uniform Improvements, that changes the spawns for different types of zombified soldiers to fit the lore in as a realistic fashion as applicable, instead of balance being in mind. See the change notes (May 10th 2022/Feb 14th 2023) for more details. You may need to restart your game after enabling this version, and remember that SMUI requires Night Vision Chucked, and that also requires eris_nightvision_goggles. SMUI can be found here: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails?id=2530389024SMUI reupload can be found here, everything should (mostly) work: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2982807308

The compatibility mod for Red's Bloused Boots, which simply gives the zombified soldiers bloused pants, along with the other changes Realistic Army Zombies brings. RBB can be found here: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2524979277

If you decide to use any of the compatibility versions, make sure only one version of Realistic Army Zombies is downloaded AND enabled, alongside the mods (RBB and SMUI) themselves which ALSO must be enabled, otherwise military zombies will spawn in missing parts of equipment/clothing. To further clarify with an example, if you want to use the SMUI version, out of the 3 versions (Realistic Army Zombies, RAZ Red's Bloused Boots Compatibility, RAZ SMUI Compatibility) only the RAZ SMUI Compatibility version would be enabled, and the SMUI mod itself would be enabled as well. In multiplayer the compatibility mod will have to be loaded after the actual mod themselves in the mods tab, with the other versions of RAZ not being used removed from the mods tab.

This should not conflict with any clothing mods unless they adjust the army zombies themselves, and even then it is unlikely to cause game-breaking issues.
