📋 About This Mod

This is a complete overhaul of ammunition types, damages, dismemberment, and penetration to complement the armor rework, major changes to suspect armor, and a minor overhaul of UI to remove the death icon and "Press F to {Action} text”

Installation instructions

MUST HAVE ALL AVAILABLE DLCs

Typical installation: download and place in your PAK folder. The AIO should overwrite most files as it's a major overhaul. Make sure Judge Is Not a Doctor overrides the minimal UI dependency as it replaces a file in that mod completely.

If using the provided difficulty.ini paks (SoE pak), it will not be compatible with other AI mods, as it overrides the same .ini file, no way to reliably get around that. However, this mod is designed to remain compatible with most popular mods.

If you don't have all DLCs use the archived 1. 02 file.

  • []The Ammo Overhaul / Suspect Armor / Judge Is Not A Doctor modules are mostly compatible with other AI mods such as:

    [] No Crack for AI [/]

    []Ready or Realism (SWAT AI version only)[/]

[/]

[]Just might have slightly overpowered ammo in game due to lower health pools. [/]

This mod is balanced for 210 HP, closer to vanilla hard values.

This is also partially compatible with Gunfighter (all modules except ballistics).

Description

This mod is a realism overhaul

In reality, 4–8 operators don’t clear buildings against 20–30 armed suspects. You’d be looking at 30–40 personnel, perimeter containment, negotiation, and a whole lot of time.

This mod assumes widespread civil unrest has saturated law enforcement (LE) capabilities. So, you’re understaffed. You’re outnumbered. You’re going in anyway and you'll probably have to drive a few tacks into baddies to bring order to chaos.

Instead of fixing the scale, this mod focuses on making everything inside the engagement behave realistically:

  • []armor works like armor [/]

    []ammo behaves like ammo [/]

    []people don’t instantly drop[/]

    Judge Is Not A Doctor

    This removes the “Press F to ” text and modifies the death icon while preserving world interaction icons.

    Spoiler alert: F does everything.

    The death icon is replaced with the incapacitated icon because Judge is not a physician and more importantly, in vanilla the death icon is a tell for a sus faking it.

    If someone goes down in RoN, they’re usually “dead” because you hit them with another bullet after they were incapped

    That’s not how reality works.

    Every suspect, downed or not, is a potential threat until secured.

    VO line still plays suspect killed lines, I don't work with the new FMOD .bank files but if someone wants to fix this be my guest.
