Recommended quality of life mods?

Recommended Posts

I'm sure many people are using the ShackTac UI, but I'm wondering what other quality of life mods there are out there. I've seen some things to that effect in other, bigger mods, e.g. the action menu (which IMO looks like a vast improvement on the vanilla action menu) or the visible grenade arc, but I'm wondering if there are standalone, client-side mods along those lines. Any suggestions?

Enhanced Movement is one of my favourites, and I never turn it off if I can help it. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=333310405

 

Bullet Casings on ground mod, http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=606289254

 

Tactical Reload/ Bullet in the Chamber mod, http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=27125

 

Possibly Blastcore? http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=767380317

it depends if you like the effects or not- while it does have a performance impact I've found Blastcore + 'Low/standard' particle effects quality will give you much nicer explosions without the frame rate loss of higher particle effects.

 

Ares Achilles and 3DEN editor for mission making http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=723217262 and http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=623475643 

 

Bloodlust Lite? It removes the gore from the mod, which is good for performance reasons, but if you would rather have the gore you can get the normal version- http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=753617266

 

I would also put soundmods in this category, but that's more of a personal preference thing. 

 

As far as missions go- http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=169770205 and http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=705986840 should give you plenty of replayability. 

 

If there is any particular type of gameplay you like, I can try and get a more specific list for you. 

The Visible Grenade Arc is part of ACE3 currently- there are multiple mods that remove or change the scrollwheel menu around, and usually they alter how vehicle get-in works.

Thanks, that's some good stuff there. I've heard of some of these, but others are entirely new to me.

 

Edit: I would definitely be a big fan of a non-ACE3 visible grenade arc mod. Most of the time I'm a danger to the people around me when I use grenades - except half the time I forget to switch to actual grenades, so I even suck at being an involuntary risk to my squad mates. :-D
