Official MOD MANUAL - Please read
This mod was created 3 days after the release of the game and continues to bring updates 24-48 hours after every major official update. It's completely compatible with the story-line of the main game, is meant to be lore friendly, and supports 4 difficulties: Casual Survivor, Survivor, Ultimate Survivor, and Insanity. You can start a new game or use one you already have. NG+ has a greater number of infected spawns and difficulty - I'd recommend trying the mod with the regular game first to learn the new features before going to NG+.
This mod contains a Mod Config setting file that allows you to pick and choose your world and define a lot of things you'd normally require other mods for. Make sure to check out this feature, as it contains hundreds of options for gameplay. The mod is multiplayer compatible and was built for playing with friends. The host and clients should remove all mods, run file verification, install IALR on both systems using the installer and everyone MUST have the same settings selected. The host should set all Mod Config settings in the Data2.pak and test everything is running as expected, then send the Data2.pak and Data3.pak to all clients.
This mod breaks with each official update to the game and has to be updated every time as it's an overhaul to every game system. Please always check VERSION COMPATIBILITY on the file downloads section and use the custom mod banner when running the game to ensure compatibility. You can join the Discord Community to get all the latest updates from the IALR Release Channel where I'll mention whether an update is safe to play until I get an update out.
Please protect your savegame by backing it up before playing with this mod and utilize the Discord release channel for the update schedule and current bug-list as updates roll out from Techland. The updates used to be safer with mods but since official updates around 1. 15+, there are inventory bugs that cause crashes if you have custo

⚠️ Cons
