📋 About This Mod

Yeah, so i\'ve always been a super big fan of walking zombies and even though the ghouls in fallout arnt zombies, i like to imagine that they are. So in that light, i grabbed a bunch of mods and slapped them together to make a WIP zombie mod. Now they walk and groan instead of run, scream, and murder. Im still kind of starting off modding, so any feed back would be helpful. If you got a way to make this better, leave me a comment and lemme know. Install/Uninstall: In the readme.txt Credits: reogenaga for the sounds And i dont know the author of the animations, but great job man, here\'s to ya!
