S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl NPC Flashlight Visibility Enhanced Mod v1.1.1

                    
Die NPC Flashlight Visibility Enhanced mod addresses a significant visual shortcoming in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 by making enemy flashlights much more realistic and easier to spot. In the vanilla game, NPC headlamps often appear as tiny, unlit white dots, making it frustratingly difficult to track enemies during night raids. This mod adds a proper glare effect to the lamp itself and strengthens the visible light beam. Consequently, nighttime firefights become more readable, immersive, and tense, as you can now clearly identify threats in the darkness.
Wesentliche Merkmale

Realistic Glare: Adds a visible glow/lens flare to NPC headlamps. This removes the “unlit dot” look and makes enemies easier to spot from a distance.
Dynamic Scaling: The glare effect scales with distance. It is prominent at long range to help you track movement but fades up close so you can still see NPC faces during dialogue.
Stronger Beams: The light beam traveling through the air is now more consistent and visible, preventing it from disappearing at medium range like in the base game.
Enhanced Immersion: By making light sources behave more naturally, the mod improves the atmosphere of night encounters without ruining the game’s stealth mechanics.
