Custom BO3 zombies maps confirmed?

The mod section has a "zm_" option so I would say it is likely yes.

i honestly cant believe people are still asking this question....

Personally, I'm still leery about weapon support. I mean, will we not have custom weapons now? If we do, would it be too far to say we might even get paintshop access (that's a dream floating on a prayer, but one can hope)? We have a lot of info about radiant, but nothing else really. Also, I hope they make it a simple switch so we can use The Giant characters so we're not stuck with default SOE crew. I kind of like them, but nothing beats the OG crew.

I am the only one slightly concerned that the alpha testing team apparently consists of only about 5-6 people, most of whom don't do zombies at all and I presume haven't done any modding/mapping for about half a decade?

They obviously know their way around the tools, I'm not questioning their abilities, but it seems like a woefully inadequate number to be testing a product that potentially 1000s of people are going to use. ZCT Chaos is pretty much the only zombie guy that has them AFAIK, seems like a lot of responsibility to give to one man, seeing as, you know, a whole community is waiting on these tools.

Illuminate confirmed.

just noticed that its cod4 mappers who got it mostly not waw, even though bo3 is by 3arc, what the fuck?

"cp" stands for campaign? If so, modders could create their own WWII mod for Black Ops 3 8)

There was probably a more complicated process involved than we might think. The testers are bound by non-disclosure agreements so we likely won't find out how they were selected.

Also, don't forget - this is the closed alpha, I'm willing to bet there will be an open beta soon.

Edit: I think I'm wrong. Almost all of the current testers are MappersUnited staff.

Aha! Excellent sleuth work Koan, so that's how they were chosen. Was that site even active before BO3 mod tools were announced? Thought it was pretty much dead?

According to the site they've been around since 2010, but became less active as newer CoD installments were released with no tools. Their new site has been up since late last year.

You guys worry too much. We are testing everything we are given and more. Interaction with Treyarch is great, we have access to many top devs daily. There is a more than 5-6 of us, a dozen at least and many staff from other Activision Studios. As soon as we know more on Zombie Modding we will let you know, same with weapon modding!

Awesome. Please do keep us updated on alpha progress, we're all dying to know as much as we can
