Swamp Fever: Drought

Description
I've spent about a month and a half trying to make swamp fever suck less.
I think i managed, kinda. Takes about half an hour to finish it, now that water slow down is gone.
It uses the original skybox and color corrections. Making those mods still compatible.


Overall changes:
  • All water is replaced with mud, which does not slow you down.
  • The only bits of water that are left behind are more translucent, allowing you to see some fishies. (Stream in C3M1, pond in C3M4 and the water in the escape)
  • Swamp areas do not have any items unless the location was inhabited by humans
  • All items are found on shelves, tables, ect. No more random items on the floor next to a table.
  • Various relatively small visual changes and prop fixes.
  • All Saferoom doors are wooden doors. Seems better fitting for the swamp.
  • No witches spawn in deep mud, because you could not see them when they sit in it.

Plankcountry:
  • Start location is inside the store, as opposed to the traincar.
  • Moved Crashed helicopter, modified model to use the "Dark Carnival" chopper VTF. Is skin compatible with mods that change the VTF of the Concert Chopper.
  • Witches can only spawn on top of the catwalk.
  • One path past the "No Entry" bridge is always closed off, as it would be too easy to just make a B-line for the saferoom.
  • Culvert Pipe saferoom got a new model.
  • Survival location unchanged, next to item spawns.
  • Scavenge location unchanged.

Swamp:
  • Parachutists dangle around.
  • Parachutist Fallen Survivors will spawn carrying a random weapon or a gascan, along with their default items.
  • Plane Emergency Exit has no alarm. Because that just does not exist in real life. (Neither does the explosive removal of the door, but we need a reason for a panic event.)

Shantytown:
  • Some more lamps because they're nice.
  • The GOD AWFUL bridge closes in a second.
  • Spawns two more tanks if you camp after the bridge event for too long. Stop asking about this, it's not a bug.
  • Survival section is moved into Town. Because that's where I would want to play.

Plantation:
  • Plantation house is Vandalized and in greater state of disrepair.
  • Swapped roof decorations to closer resemble concept art.
  • Cut a second hole into the roof to allow CI to enter.
  • Added five new rooms. Two of which are only for the Infected to enter.
  • Changed item Spawn locations. Four of the five locations are inside the plantation house.
  • Removed stationary gun because it was just too easy with it present. Nevermind that a run down wreck of a house would not have military equipment.
  • Navmesh has been modified so infected will spawn all around the Building.
  • Added infected ladders inside the building to allow Infected to move easier.

This is nice, but I had to fight 3 tanks at once

I really like how the map turned out, but... A tank in the plane event, on the plank and the final battle being a little longer are things that I think are unnecessary.
Also, when Virgil arrives and blows up the gate, he can kill you just by being in the way to the door (Not even close)

The car is at the third map, next to the trailer when mud water starts.

Well just to be extra annoying Im gonna say that there's a car without collision and an ammo pile that's upside down but I wont tell you where it is
