About...
__________________________________________________
This is a simple mod which changes the default blood
puff into a more gory, wine-red colored variant and
adds some chunks of gore among the blood vapor. It
also changes the bloody marks on walls as per Hades’
Real Gore Mod, which is now merged into this one,
and simulates NPCs’ bodies being ripped apart by
explosives. I have also included a Particle
Enhancement 2.0 -compatible version of this mod,
which will only work as intended if you have
installed PE 2.0.
__________________________________________________
Notes...
__________________________________________________
This mod does not require you to start a new game
and should be compatible with any other mod which
doesn’t include the same files as this one (although
it can be made compatible by following the
installation instructions). This mod was created
using the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 1.0006 Worldwide version
patch, but should also be compatible with all other
patches, as long as the value of
current_server_entity_version is changed from 7 to 6
in the system.ltx file in the case of patches prior
to 1.0005.
