!Very important Note! After a new game patch you have to uninstall all mods and click re-read game archives in mod manager. Otherwise many mods will be broken...
Endorsed! Played runaway and is now the hardest ghost story in the extras mode. Finished Kath Warren in 16 mins as I needed to kill some lickers on the way. The forgotten soldier is fun and you could still die in replays. No time for mourning becomes the easiest but still hard to finish and the fourth survivor is still survivable. Great replay value, I do hope you can figure out how to randomize enemy replacement as I have played this remake hundreds of times and my wife thinks Im crazy. :)))
Great mod. With your mod I got a lot of great sensations from the game. During the first pass with your mod on hardcore difficulty, at some moments the humidity of the chair under my booty slightly increased ... Like for the mod, you can watch the video here (video quality is not very good - I don't know how to correctly set up OBS Studio for broadcasts): https://youtu.be/LyCy4XeSEuw
If you get the resident evil 3 remake could you please make this mod it has lickers aswell! Maybe you could do a mod like this with the hunter gammas and betas in that game! This mod drastically changes the game and would be great to replay the new campaign with!
ENDORRRRRRSED! I haven't had this much fun playing the remake since it came out on day one! NOW it feels like survival! No more running through the police station anymore! You have to sneak around and LISTEN! I ran this playing Leon A with a mod that gives you all weapons, and Claire's Grenade Launcher and Spark Shot were a life saver! Usually, I would try to sneak past Lickers and save my health and ammo, but with this mod that's not always an option. It was great to figure out that a full power blast from the Spark Shot will down a Licker in one shot - plus, you can hit them from far enough away so that they never see it coming! Too much fun stealth killing Lickers!
I saw on another comment that the Dogs and Lickers at the beginning of the 2nd Run are "Invincible" because they're not supposed to actually activate until you receive the Bolt Cutters. Have you thought about updating the mod to simply put a Flash Bang (or two) in the player's starting inventory? At least to give them a fighting chance. Otherwise, great mod!
Played Leon B tonight and I was able to pull it off. The red and blue herbs at the beginning at least give you a shield that lets you deal with the early damage. You kind of just have to take the hits until you get the Bolt Cutters, and bum rush your way into the Police Station, but it's possible.
Also, I think I see how the mod works. All of the male zombies have been replaced with Lickers, whereas all of the female zombies are now dogs. On the off chance that you're still working on this mod, would there be a way to release a version that's exclusively Lickers without the dogs? This may sound kind of silly, but playing with V-ACT Nightmare makes me feel like I'm in the world from the movie "A Quiet Place", that came out last year, where you have to live in silence and move slowly to stay alive.
In fact, instead of having dogs at all, why not just go ALL Lickers! If you've ever seen A Quiet Place, you'll get where I'm coming from!
V-ACT Nightmare (LiTE): will give you Lickers only, it won't replace all zombies but it has minimal bugs.
You can install "V-ACT Nightmare (LiTE)" on top of (after) "V-ACT Nightmare" and it'll replace dogs with more lickers, This means you install "V-ACT Nightmare" first, then install "V-ACT Nightmare (LiTE)" which will override the dogs.
Ooohhh...this is interesting. Do you actually mean that all the zombies you've changed into Lickers ARE actually Lickers, AI and all and not just reskins? Yeesh. Consider me interested. Download pending confirmation.
Thanks for sharing this great mod! However, after I used Fluffy manager 5000 to install this mod, I can not enter the game (stay on a black screen and CAPCOM loggo never shows up). I tried uninstalled all mods, re-validated the path and re-install only this mod (tried both normal and light version). Issue is still the same. Can you pls let me know what could be the problem?

I haven't actually thought of the flashbang idea, but no matter, I don't know how to edit the starting inventory anyway.
