VHM-Zombies

If you’ve ever felt that zombies lack the challenge they should bring, VHM-Zombies is here to change that - this mod transforms ordinary zombies into relentless, dangerous foes that make survival truly challenging

Key Features

-- Increased Health & Speed: Zombies are faster, tougher, and can jump 2 blocks while pursuing you -- movement speed can also increase further through mutation. They can also dash towards you to shorten the distance.

-- Extended Tracking & Pathing: Zombies now follow players and villagers more efficiently from greater distances, ensuring you can’t easily escape

-- Fleshspire Empowerment: A rare effect called Fleshspire can empower zombies, drastically boosting their health, speed, and aggression.

-- Hivemind Effect: Certain zombies can become even tougher and call additional zombies to their aid, creating more challenging encounters

-- Randomized Potion Effects: Zombies can spawn with effects such as Health Boost, Resistance, Speed, Strength, Jump Boost, and the powerful Fleshspire effect, making each encounter unpredictable

-- Cave Emergence: Zombies lurking deep underground (Y ≤ 40) rise to the surface at night, increasing nocturnal danger -- zombies unable to reach the surface are despawned

-- Progressive Mutation: Over time, zombies mutate, gaining additional health, potion effects, and movement speed - mutations are influenced by your actions: killing zombies slows progression, while Iron Golems can also stall mutation.

-- Dynamic Entity Interactions: Zombies may attack nearby entities like illagers, animals, and even other monsters (configurable via gamerules)

-- Customization & Gamerules: Numerous new gamerules allow fine-tuning of zombie behavior, health, speed, tracking, aggression, and other settings, giving you full control over the challenge

-- Commands: Use /vhmzsetmutationstage to adjust the current mutation stage and reset its timer

Gameplay Notes

-- The mod works with most other mods, but caution is advised with mods affecting base movement speed, as this can make zombies disproportionately fast.
