A mod for arachnophobiacs that deletes all spiders from the game, and replaces them with worms. NoSpiders_Uni is the latest version of the mod, the original zip is only kept for archivation purposes (and oldDark compatibility, for those few that may need it). Once the mod is loaded, starting a new game is highly recommended/required.

Quote by Uni Readme:

this mod, once activated, will slaughter ALL spiders EVERYWHERE, vanilla, SCP, fan missions, it just won't care. a worm will be spawned at their place. pre-placed spider corpses will also be removed.

note: if the level does something scripted with a spider, this mod will break it (no change there, the previously available mods that were removing spiders are not any different) - a good example would be the Eng2 Many sequence, while the spiders will be converted into worms properly, they will not patrol around like the spiders did (as that part is scripted on the spiders, and will die with them).

Quote by Jocke Readme:

I have now set the spiders to be destroyed as soon as they are created. As a safeguard I've also set them to be invisible, completly silent, slower then your avarge dead slug, have one (1) hitpoint, have weapons that make no damage AND they are on the Good team so any other AI's around will slay them! That enough for ya?

Is it possible to use this mod with others that modify the .GAM file also?

664a271d9e20d

No, that's not possible. You could of course add the few changes Jocke made to another shock2.gam using shocked.

664a271d9e2f3

Is...there a tutorial on how to do this? Or a way to find what modifications he made?

664a271d9e421

I can't tell you exactly how to do it (Jocke said what he did.), but here is a beginners tutorial.
And you can always ask in the SS2 mission design forum on ttlg.com.

I've played the entire game with this mod on...
there is one problem... when you reach sim unit 3
a lot of Spiders come out Malick's audio log said that
people will feel "sorrow" and when I reached sim unit 3
the two doors opened up and nothing happends

that will save a lot of bullets...

664a271d9e641

What exactly is the problem then?

664a271d9e75f

the audio log said the it was going to be hard
I thought it was too easy is it possible that
you can delete the audio log or the replace it with
two rumblers or something

664a271d9e899

I personally think this goes well beyond the scope of this odd mod. But if someone wants to add rumblers, who am I to stop them. I like spiders. In games.

*hiss hisssssssss*

664a271d9e9a1

i HATE spiders in games, so this is great news to me

my only question is that when i downloaded the MOD, it featured a game file simply called 'shock2.gam' not 'shock2_nospiders.gam as he suggested - i'm assuming though he's simply made a change and renamed it in advance?

664a271d9ea92

Well, personally I would delete all spiders EXCEPT the ones surrounding Sim Unit 3; provide a nice few moments of terror for people who aren't expecting it.

664a271d9eba9

ss2user: correct, it's been renamed in advance, probably by myself, so it will work flawlessly with the modmanager.

Accoch63: This mod isn't for pussies who don't like spiders. They should just get over it. This mod is for people who have an abnormal fear of spiders and therefor cannot play the game. Leaving a few spiders in would miss the point, as people with a severe arachnophobia couldn't continue the game at this point.

664a271d9ec87

Right, I know, that was just me being the evil bastard I am.

664a271d9eda4

I fear spiders

this is why this mod is correct for me

If you ask why i fear spiders...

When i was kid my friend did drop a lot of spiders on top of my head :p

664a271d9ee95

I'm an arachnophobe too. Though I tend to waste ammo on them and miss alot of the time T_T

664a271d9ef7b

An arachnophobe named Scorpion. Only just noticed.

That's not a bad idea, actually. It really doesn't make sense for the doors to open up without anything there, especially after the aforementioned log.

Yeah, that's...strange.

664a271d9f6e0

I took the liberty of making a small addition to the Sim unit trap so Malick's log will make sense even with this mod installed. Let me know what you think.

Be advised that this new version replaces ops4.mis in addition to shock2.gam, so be sure to back up both files before installing.

664a271d9f813

Its very possible to do the "Sorrow" Sim unit 3 thing with only your melee weapon.
But I guess thats just me playing the game too much. =p

664a271d9f91f

Yes. In fact, it's possible to complete the entire game with only melee weapons.

664a271d9f9f8

Aw, how could you guys hate the adorable little bastards?

664a271d9fb44

Stop making me want to punch you.

664a271d9fc30

It was a joke. Don't burst a vein. I'm aware that people take the spiders out due to arachnophobia or just a plain dislike of them.

664a271d9fd5f

Apparently you're not aware that the last post to this thread was almost a year ago. How about if in the future you don't amuse yourself by thinking up stupid things to post to threads that are perfectly well off without your dazzling wit.
