Nelson's Enemy (and gore) Overhaul

Description

adds a shitton more enemy variations.  nothing more nothing less. over 300 new enemy variants to ogle at and.. well kill and enjoy:) includes pretty much every special except spitters and chargers (for now). 

for those using my enemy overhaul and gibbing mod, remove em! they can be disabled. this mod serves as an extended updated version of this, this is like. 8 months of work

oh yeah, this mod also enables specials to spawn in the game world (rarely!) outside of encounters. They have a small chance of replacing biters and common enemies.

read the main features list for like, a weird ass more comprehensive list of changes the mod makes. while this is mainly a cosmetic mod, i made a few gameplay changes out of pure "i thought this would be cool" energy. if y'all hate em, let me know, if not, great!

Installation instructions

as you would anything else. place the common_prefabs_pc and assets_2_pc folder into ph_ft/work.

place the mod's data.pak into ph_ft_/source

Shout outs

Kozmeker - compiling the original which i based the rpack on

NotCoolGuyXD - better looking military zombies (i based some of the variants off that)

Ashfold - Castor Woods Rangers (original mod where the ranger zombies came from)

Main features

- a fuckton of enemy variations!

there is ALOT and I mean alot of enemy variations added by this mod. you'll see more unique appearances for goons, biters (including special variants ;), virals, bandits, the baron's soldiers, volatiles, banshees, demolishers etc. there's like, 700 unique models for these fuckers. Hell. Yes. things will be significantly less bland to stare at

- toxic biters now have unique models and textures

- baron sniper soldiers no longer reuse the riflemen models. instead, they have a unique model with a cap and significantly less armor.

- chimeras (that spawn outside of missions now in encounters and convoys) :) have unique variations. lab behemoth included! it's not alot but, yeah. it's enough man.

- HELMET POPPING. yes, i added helmet popping. i thought it was fucking awesome. it only happens on death though. whenever an enemy dies by headshot, their helmet will go flying off. it looks cool and it's super satisfying, so fuck it!

- updated version of my gore overhaul! this mod has an updated version of my gore overhaul mod. i'll see about seperating this, but yeah. i properly added chest wounds for demolishers and goons, and proper bisections for them aswell. they happen rarely, but again it's fucking awesome when it does.

- demolishers have been slightly redesigned to resemble their dl2 look, i didn't remove the volatile design the demolishers have however ;). default demolisher designs have been moved to a new subvariant of the demolisher that was previously disabled, the demolisher "gorilla".

gameplay changing shit:

- fat biters now function as "bruiser" zombies from the ORIGINAL dying light. (This basically means they have knockdown). while you might find this annoying, it just serves as an extra incentive to stay away from em. also makes them more of a unique encounter. oh yeah, they also might show up as buff as fuck tall biters instead of fatasses cause i thought it was awesome

- chimeras may spawn in convoys at higher levels. it's super rare when it does happen, but it makes for cool ass encounters.

- once again, certain aspects of this mod were ai generated. coding stuff mostly, and alot of "alt" textures.  i touched up all of them by hand, and still, a shitton of effort was put into making this mod happen. every model, every included .model/variant aswell, was almost 100% fixed and made by me.  this mod was in development for over 8 months on my own, and was a passion project of mine. hopefully you enjoy what i put out. expect some bugs!
