Zombie version is included in MaxPack C1 (execs with "g" at the end), but working in boring mode ("g" as German - nice and fluffy all the time), to switch it to main mode (as was in UK version) it need a file swap. I made a few fixes to do this automatically. UCP is one of them, but it include much more changes and fixes (based on original CD versions). It is also possible to bring zombies to SP, but it need some more work. There are less zombies than pedestrians (count is the same, but some pedestrians doesn't have their equivalent [from new SP pedestrians we have only a sheep from zombie demo, I don't know is there is full zombie version of SP], so they are replaced with duplicates). BTW robot (German - android) mode work by default in boring mode and have only ten repeated androids. With UCP you can also play android mode in main mode instead of boring (androids are not in use in MaxPack C1 by default).

And how , once installed, can I switch to zombies in main mode?

After installation game run as set in UCP setup.

If you have installed UCP with pedestrians (default), you need to change setup by running UCP again. To set zombies you need to set "Text language" to zombies -> "English (zombies)" and "Main mode (no limits)" to "Zombies".

I haven't created execs for UCP. UCP replace files as in original game, so it change game version.

However I have made different patch whitch add execs for each mode, which allow to run each gore version directly, but only in Win95 version. Here willbe much more execs... 6 - for peds, zombies, robots in full and boring modes. And this should be made of each exec wich is present in game and for HD Test, so... I think as is is ok.

The other solution is to make a setup which will add all gore version files and then will just patching existing execs to run desired mode.

The best would be an exec with more commandline parameters to set any gore mode in full or boring mode.
