A simple, yet carefully selected mod list that allows for a refreshed experience without breaking the game.
I tried to avoid scripted mods, so this list should be compatible with various game modes, but more testing is needed.
No performance lost on my end (RTX 3080 / 5800X3D).
Mod listed in order (HUD-->Effects-->Textures-->Audio-->Weapons and related audio-->Misc).

GRAPHICS:
-All textures are covered with the best mods available (environment, props, survivors and infected).
-Visual FX like muzzle flashes, tracers, smoke, impacts, blood and decals have been overhauled, combat looks and feels better.
-Water reflections are also improved.
-Simple HUD mod included.
-Lighting mod not included (in my opinion they look worse, after testing them).

AUDIO:
-Complete audio overhaul with environment, gore and weapon SFX.
-All guns have great quality sounds, in a similar style and much more enjoyable than vanilla sounds (no more headaches).

WEAPONS:
-All weapons have been replaced with the best models and animations I could find after extensive scrutiny (you won’t find an ugly model)
