Vista fix thanks to Vizx

Vista 32 bit
1. You need to download 3 files, or if you still have XP copy them across to your Vista installation. Those 3 files are:

dx7vb.dll
dx8vb.dll
d3drm.dll

You can find them on your XP installation under the Windows\System32 directory.


2. Now that you have those 3 files, you need to put them in the Vista system32 directory, this is usually C:\Windows\System32 - best way to do this is to move them using Windows Explorer.

3. Go to the Start Button, choose All Programs -> Accessories -> Command Prompt. You should get a black window titled "Administrator: Command Prompt" - if not, right click Command Prompt in the start menu and choose "Run as administrator".

4. In the command window, type in the following (note that <enter> means press the enter key):

cd c:\windows\system32 <enter> (assuming windows is on your C: drive, if not put the correct letter in.)

regsvr32 dx7vb.dll <enter> Click OK on the window that comes up saying dllregserver succeeded

regsvr32 dx8vb.dll <enter> Click OK on the window that comes up saying dllregserver succeeded

exit <enter>

__________________________________________________ ______________________________

Some of you probably remember the last thread of SCZ, you had to buy it, but they offered a demo. Well, now it's free. My friend decided to download it again and noticed it wasn't under the buy section. I downloaded it and checked the menu. It didn't say "Demo version"!
Now, I usually don't make threads unless I have time to make it mega, which I don't. I want to play this, so I'll give some information on it.

Survival Crisis Z is a zombie survival game. I don't know the story because I didn't read anything. You can make your guy (or girl) by choosing a class and a skin color. If you play arcade mode and get a high score, you can edit everything in your character (clothes, masks, hair, etc). You can choose to join sides with the Rebels, SWAT, or just be neutral.
So it sounds pretty good so far. Usually zombie games I play aren't really fun, but this one is challenging. In this town you can search all the buildings (or most). You can also go in the sewers, which is infested with zombies. You start with a few items, depending on what class you chose, so you have to use items wisely, don't wast ammo.

There is a story. If you do enough missions, you'll be taken to another city by a chopper. There's tons of weapons and items, you can even combine to make new weapons, and you also have resources. Resources are for using skills, like building a Tesla generator, you need 1 piece of hardware and 2 electronic pieces. Very helpful for taking out huge groups of zombies, or for taking over buildings.

You can even form a party. Sometimes you get a new person in a mission, and sometimes they just start following you when you see them in a building. When you take over a building, you can rest there for free, and you get money from it every day. To take over a building, talk to the leader and select "Hostile Takeover". It'll tell you the difficulty, which is how many rebels/zombies/SWAT there are going to be, and for how long.

Dual's guide to surviving the masses!
I'm just going to jump straight into this i have got fairly far in the story mode and here is my guide:
Making the moneys yay
In case you haven't geussed you are going to need money to survive well you don't need money to survive but it makes it a shit load easier!

Best ways to make money:
1: get a skimask , duck tape and a car battery. Put on your skimask and go to a neutural store guy who you talk to open invetory and select duck tape then select car battery. Now your man has the guy tied up and hooked up tothe VOLTERAGEZ!
just press fire like 3 times and then wait for his health bar to go back to full, now do this 3X again and repeat until he shows you his secret stash!
Take all the stuff from his stash and run out shop/building now your wanted just remove the skimask and your alliance level is normal (what it was before you put skimask on)
2: scavenge. Simply put: Go into building and loot EVERYTHING keep ammo/car batterys and stuff but take the red/blue/yellow vials and mix randomly whatever they make it's worth $20 :P Sell to people after your done looting
3: missions. Best way to make money all you do is either escort someone or a package and get like $50 - $500 + moneys
4: (Thanks to Pixelnator)First, find a place that sells a commodity in a low price. For example one food for 9$. Buy as much of it as you can.

Next find a place that buys food in a high price. Sell your stock there.

Taking over stores:
look for a store that has protection from zombies but you can still shoot them.
bars are great because you can just run behind the bar and ghetto blast every zombie that comes in. Once every zombie is killed you are the "owner" to an extent.

potion mixtures:
It's just a colour wheel
Like in real life if you mix blue and yellow you get green that makes you run fast you'll figure them out
I'll post more later if anyone would like more help :)

My team was good i had 2 people both armed with SMG's and we went ghetto blasting

Sort of a cheat but good for ammo/items
When your in a hospital (has 4 room with doors to each) just go in a room loot go to next loot leave repeat and the rooms you have just been in respawn again immediately... That is how i got ammo and useful items
Good luck on defeating the zombie whores
Download site:
http://skasoftware.com/files/scz.exe
It's only 10 mb.

Time for pics and clicks:





To unlock all cheats, download this file:
http://files.filefront.com//;6717671;;/

Unrar and place the file into the "saves" folder. Replace the older file. Type "Cheats" in the main menu, all cheats are now unlocked.

Download it! It's fun!

I've seen posts saying that the site is too slow to download from.

There's the game, I uploaded it.

There are alot of zombies. Zombie dogs are fast, and people zombies can run almost as fast as you.
I haven't tried blocking walls yet, I dunno if you can or not.

That's how I got killed last time :(.
I was running from zombies on the street, I was out of ammo. I ran into this building and went through it into the center. So many of them came through the doors.

I don't think it's multiplayer. But you can get allies and people to fight with you. I read about some guy on the other thread who had a friend. They both killed the zombies and he was always owning them, he died later though.

Those are only two pictures. Only 3 zombies. I'm pretty sure there's alot of gore. I remember playing the survival mode, there was plenty of gore.

This just in; there are explosives in this game. Exploding zombies = gore.

'Kay, time to play. I'll check back once I get a save.

Judging by the simplicity of the gfx folder, I'm sure some of Facepunch's great artists might possibly have the ability to either:

A. Make the graphics slightly better

or

B. Total MFin' conversion

or

C. Change it to be more Facepunchian.

Save that and replace the one in your GFX folder, just a basic test. I covered up all of the explicit frames of the legs out that I could find, if this game is still discriminating, tell me what to add.

No modding required.

Step one: Go to GFX folder
Step two: Find the files named "intro"
Step three: Edit them with paint, save them. Back up if necissary.
Step five: edit all the rest to your liking once you realize the full poteintal of these easily moddable files.

I usually do that for games like this, but I never release it. Usually when my friend sleeps over we do this. It becomes so annoying, but it's hard not to laugh at it.

You can also edit text and quests: Look in the other folders, and edit with Notepad(++, preferably)

Tis the missions folder. When it asks you to how to open one of those odd files, choose notepad.

In the main Survival Crisis Z folder, you should see 'Data; GFX; Missions; Saves; SFX; ReadMe.txt; SCZ.exe"

Click on Missions, and open them up in Notepad++
Click on Data, and open up zmledit.exe

I got the source code lying around on my computer, tried learning VB but it is just... Wow. Oh well, I love Jim's talent (some guy tried making it co-op but just died one day).
