Unpredictable Prey v1.0 by Dafama (27-11-2008)
Description...:
This is a mod specially aimed at playability for Prey, also, this mod fixes some Prey bugs and trys to enhance the Prey expirience with adding more creepy elements, bettering weapons, adding smarter A.I., changing some most used in the game sounds.
Specially this mod give Prey a much more Id software feel, more creepy, better action and remove many bad playability bugs made by Human Head software.
VERY IMPORTANT !!!...:
I carefully recommend to remove any OLD pre v1.x, before installing this NEW v1.x mod because there can be incompatibilities if not doing it, ok !
Also, note that i have included a file named z_parallax_extreme_prey_nv.pk4.zip that
contains an NVidia ONLY versions of the Parallax featured NEW shaders combo, to ACTIVATE this shaders you need to rename that file to z_parallax_extreme_prey_nv.pk4 (without the ending .ZIP extension, this should be removed from the name of the file).
Ok, now you have ACTIVATED the NVidia shaders but you still need to DEACTIVATE the Parallax Generic/ATI version to be able to use the NVidia only shaders, this can be done reaming the z_parallax_extreme_prey.pk4 file that contains the Generic/ATI version of the shaders to z_parallax_extreme_prey.pk4.zip (with the ending .ZIP extension added).
Finally, of course an NVidia GFX card with at least 100% DX v9.0c or higher compatibility is required to see anything with this great shaders !
...YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED !!!
