BioMod is an extension of Y|yukichigai's excellent Shifter mod for Deus Ex.  While I still think Shifter is a definite improvement over the original game,  I sometimes felt while playing it that it was too conservative for my tastes.  Eventually I decided to make my own mod which would contain some radical changes that might give some people pause, but would hopefully breathe new life into the game for everyone else.

As the name suggests, BioMod is primarily concerned with Deus Ex's augmentations, with the aim of making them more balanced, but also a lot easier to manage.  Most augs are now automated, using energy only when they're actually doing their jobs.  Some augs that were less useful or that would be a pain to manage have been made free or given extra abilities, while those that I thought were un-salvageable have been replaced with entirely new augs. 

In addition to the augmentation system, BioMod also makes some general gameplay changes, such as the addition of pickpocketing, an autosave feature, achievement-like challenges, and a Thief style ledge grabbing system.

Ok first thing you should do is bring back the Shifter skill point awarding system. It makes the game better.

Second, there is a weird thing that at some NPCs feet you could found soda cans and candy bars. That makes the game sometimes look weird.

And the last thing that you should make more challenges for shoot-a-lot players like me (head shot all enemies in the map, kill a bunch of enemies with a LAM).

Thanks for reading!

For some odd reason some of the new features (mainly the ledge grab button and achievement button) don't work for me,I installed it the same advanced way used for shifter (since typing the steps would make this post tl:dr I'll just say to look at the steps provided in shifter's advanced.txt file.)I even tried installing BioMod the original way (replacing the original deus ex files provided) and still didn't help.Does my Deus Ex just not like Biomod?

You have to remap the space bar from jump to jump/ledge grab.

I've been trying to do a non lethal challenge, however whenever i try to it I always fail at a point where you need to kill agent navarre, because you NEED to kill her either way. Any tips?

They had a video on Youtube showing that if you use a gas grenade she runs out the door and is temporarily non-combative so you can escape. Hope this helps!

Sometimes if you throw a grenade at her, she runs away and open the door.

THAT is a tough one! You can avoid killing her until you meet her blocking your exit from UNATCO HQ.

Only thing I can think of is try to run downstairs toward Manderley's office, go by it, run upstairs again and out the door.

Not sure if that, 'roundy-roundy' thing would work but that's the best I can think of. If you try this please post the results here.

How about a second, 'hoarde' location: That closet in Paul's Hell's Kitchen apartment. Would be a good spot given how often the player revisits that area.

Maybe make the key in the middle of Castle Clinton (on the way to Lebadev's 747) actually unlock something? Be nice to have that Easter egg actually DO something.
