I think I have pretty much maxed out the game through. I agree, it has been a PITA trying to mod this game, but as with any Unreal Engine 3based game, without the proper SDK, modding is very difficult and the only thing we can do is tinker with the. Oh, and yes, you will need a beast of a rig to run this when I'm done with it. You obviously loose a bit of quality in the video, but just to give you a sense of where its going.
Hopefully there are people who are still interested. I'm doing it for every fan of Aliens games who want to experience this game again (of for the first time) with more graphic fidelity. Here's a video of a very early version of the texture mod that I'm working on. Now I know that some of you are thinking there is no point in trying to polish this game, and before some of you scoff, I think there is a lot of potential in making this game more enjoyable by improving some of the textures and by enabling some atmospheric effects in the game's config files. So I set out to attempt the same thing with ACM.
Okay, so I finished playing Watch Dogs the other day and I realized how much more enjoyable it was playing it with the awesome mods that have been released by some of the users on this forum.
