📋 About This Mod
March 2 2025 - MMV Super 4070

8. 0 going up (MedsModVisual2025 Super 4070 v1)
If too much smoke from missiles, download the lowered smoke version.

- flash added to missiles to simulate when propulsion from missile ignites.

Sep17 - 1. 5 going up (IDGAF 5)
- I've Added missile trails to the missiles that look damn good to me. Natural smoke characteristics. They are similar to the ones in my 2020 version but don't hit the performance so hard.
- Tuned critical to emit an initial quick explosion before the mushroom clouds. but it may be too quick too notice. Will change next update
What MedsMod Adds/Changes:
[]Lighting added to everything necessary. Like explosions and weapon hits and weapons. You will not need to use night vision because everything lights up nice.
[]Lasers now emit light which reflects in the cockpit and beyond.
[]Lasers tuned to look more bright and solid.
[]Dynamic explosions. For a more natural look, different explosions are never exactly the same.
[]Added and tuned explosions to be more irl-like all around the board (some last longer, some last less long). And their colors tuned to be more slightly red.
[]Missile smoke that looks like silly streamers from vanilla taken away. Will probably add my own smoke to them soon (from 2020 medsmod).
[]Lighting added to missile exhaust, and tuned to be a lil more red.
[] Added new critical that emits light with particles and extra layer of smoke (will probably make it more intense next update)
[]Mech Damage explosions/sparks added. When a mech takes damage where armor gets compromised or a part gets blown off, blue sparks with lighting will show/flash on the mech. You will even see it in the cockpit when your mech gets a part blown off.
[]Lighting added to weather lightning that now reflects off the land and your mech like irl.
[*]Performance increases: Tuned alot of explosions and effects to althou
