H3ZM LaserMine
Standalone H3VR laser mine inspired by classic CS 1.6 Zombie Mod. Swappable batteries, Damages sosigs and players (configurable).H3ZM LaserMine
A battery-powered laser mine for H3VR, inspired by classic Counter-Strike 1.6 Zombie Mod and the Half-Life tripmine.
Part of the H3ZM mod family. This is a standalone item mod: the H3ZM gamemode is not required.
Features
Plant a mine, insert an LM-B1 battery and select ARM. Its cyan beam damages crossing targets, then briefly recharges.
- Each mine spawns with one separate, single-use LM-B1 battery.
- Swap batteries while planted.
- Spawnlockable batteries; the mine itself cannot spawnlock.
- Battery charge bar and status light.
- Incoming damage drains battery energy. Moving or invalid surfaces release the mine.
- Configurable energy, damage, recharge delay and resilience.
The beam damages players by default, including you. Plan a safe route, or disable DamagePlayer in the configuration.
Getting started
Item spawner: H3ZM LaserMine → Support / Remote Explosives. Extra LM-B1 Battery packs: related items or Misc / Utility.
- Insert the battery underneath, contacts upward. Either label direction works; it snaps into place.
- Release the mine with its rear sticky surface against a valid wall.
- Hover a free hand over the top switch and press the trigger for ARM/SAFE, before or after placement.
- Wait for cyan: the mine is ready. It briefly recharges after each hit.
Pull the battery out to swap it. An armed mine resumes after charging. Grab the mine body to remove it from the wall. Requires a Large inventory slot.

| Flashing amber | Disrupted; beam temporarily disabled. |
| Red | Too little energy for another charge. |
