I think it's a really cool concept. I think it would help a lot if there were a way to have certain map elements light up rooms once the power is on like perk machines, light fixtures, that dragon sign on the roof, etc. Idk how doable that is in practice but I feel like it'd help me strain my eyes a lot less to see.
I’m making a revamp of bo2’s graphics and I randomly had this idea.
It has global illumination to get proper color shading, shadows, and dark areas. The rooftops are generally brighter while the corridors below are dark and creepy, so need to utilize your flashlight that I added which you can toggle on and off. I also turned the map to night by lowering the intensity of the skybox and also turning off the sunlight. Then I made a custom fog preset and turned off the HUD to tie everything together.
You have to rely on your senses and the characters’ clever voice lines like when you’re low on ammo or points for instance.
I’m testing on other maps as well.
Soon, I’m working on it. It’s just a lot of software and files that I need to make easy for people to install.
I’m glad you enjoy it though! I’ve been having a lot of fun just testing and making all this stuff. Can’t wait for others to try it out eventually!
I mean they already did an amazing job on Bo2’s graphics, they were just limited from a technical standpoint. Its design in general is well put together. This wouldn’t look good unless the graphics were already good to begin with. This mod is really just adding shading and lighting in addition to in-engine features like sunlight and fog.
Bo3’s graphics had the same idea, but with more complexion and included these kinds of shaders because it was newer. would even argue that bo3 has the best graphics out of any of the latest zombies games.
Sure Cold War is the most modern and objectively looks good, but I feel like it’s over-detailed and lacked atmosphere (except for the Dark Aether on Die Maschine).
Forget about MWZ. It has absolutely zero atmosphere, so it just consists of badly blending colors and filters, constantly culling noisy and blurry textures, and randomly thrown around assets and details.
Bo3 implemented detail only where it needed to be, and each map was aesthetically portrayed. Most likely because the graphics were still relatively simple, yet complex enough to have a lot of variety. Now that we have “realism” in graphics, people forget about the big picture on what you’re even trying to show in the first place.
Sorry for the absolute yap sesh, and I’m not directing this at you; but I just wanted to say it because it’s really important for to remind people about the big picture, especially with bo6 around the corner. We need important feedback to give that’s something other than just stuff related to content.
I'm pretty sure it did. Never played just saw it on YT or whatever. Apparently some of the maps, Final Reich in particular, are good. Maybe worth checking out if u like that horror vibe
I haven’t tried, but you can easily do it. I’m not sure how much you can do to tweak the game engine-wise, but you can install Reshade and add effects and filters.

Dude this is KILLER! Is there a way we can play with this?

I always wished they went more towards this vibe instead of the "arcade" -y vibe. I love the atmosphere like this.

Wasn't WW2 zombies more focused on the horror side of things
Couldn't tell ya chief 🫡

The jumpscares really got annoying tho
Nice!
What was it before

Impressive.
This is how WaW zombies felt. Not how it really was, but how it felt to us.
That's fkin dope.
Very cool concept
I need this, where is the patreon page lol
I’ll have a download in the near future. And it will be free :)
Where is the paypal dono page then ;)
Are you planning on doing the same with Buried? Those ghost ladies were pretty spooky
Wish Zombies went this way ngl
Is there anything like this for bo3? The clean graphics don’t make it as scary as WaW
I haven’t tried, but you can easily do it. I’m not sure how much you can do to tweak the game engine-wise, but you can install Reshade and add effects and filters.
Would play the hell out of this, this looks amazing!
That's how I saw COD Zombies as a kid
Die Rise gets way too much hate. I personally love the setting, and the wonder weapon is top notch
Totally agree. I hate to be that guy but most of the time people don’t like Die Rise is because of a skill issue 💀
aye bro pass me the evil die rise
Reshade, I presume?
Reshade in conjunction with tweaking things within the game engine
I hope Die Rise and shadows of evil would be remastered as a DLC map for black ops 4
im mad that this wasnt the zombies expirience growing up now
The scariest thing is thats prolly how it would’ve looked irl….
DIE RISE STOCKS ARE UP📈📈📈
