Here are some client only mods that I've found helpful and you may as well. None of these are really required to play. I've tried to limit them to things that are useful but not "cheats", while some may not be fully immersive they aren't game-breaking either. As always I highly recommend using ArmaSync as your mod manager and game launcher. Many mods also require CBA A3 to work so I recommend getting that one and just always keeping it on. AUDIO/VISUAL Blastcore A3 - enhanced visual FX especially for explosions Mr Burns Voice Stop - eliminates in-game radio callouts Speed of Sound - enhanced sound FX Full Screen Night Vision - just what it says (I haven't tried this one yet) EQUIPMENT Unlocked Uniforms - allows players to equip any factions uniforms/gear Outlaw Mag Repack - allows combining partial magazines into full ones INFORMATION ShackTack Stamina Bar - adds a small fatigue meter on the bottom left - actually downloads the entire ShackTack HUD pack, you can use just the stamina bar or all the rest as well Status HUD - displays heading (cardinal direction, not number bearing), health, stamina and FPS CONTROL/MOVEMENT VTS Weapon Resting - allows weapon resting for steadier aiming on walls/objects - default control is CRTL+SPACE Switching Weapons While Moving - just what it says - under the config/controls/custom controls menu, use Custom 17 to bind a control for the handgun and/or Custom 18 to bind a control for your launcher. I used TAB+1 for the launcher so that I could easily reach it with my left hand while still using WASD. Does not work with mouse wheel scroll weapon switching, HAS to use custom keybindings. Any that I haven't tried will be updated or removed as I or others get to test them out. If anybody has some more to recommend please post them up.
Audio/visual Adjustable Full screen night vision lsd_nvg is related to the other fullscreen nvg, the author of the full screen credits the author of lsd_nvg for his. lsd_nvg has the ability to be auto adjusting or manually adjusted. It only works on the base arma nvg's, so any mods that have special ones will not be modified. I've used this one in about every mod pack we have ever had and never found a conflict. Information Gear / Load Out Weight bw_loadcalc is a modification that allows you to see your loadout weight in kg in the inventory screen. We have used this in the past, or I may have just tested it with one of our mod packs in the past, either way its a way to have a bit more accurate way to state the weight of your load than "the bar is half way through the silencer." (I want to say this feature was also integrated into agm or one of the other larger modifications we used to use as well but I might be wrong)
Some updates, changed in OP as well - I could not get the digital compass bearing mod to work. May need more work that just installing and running but I didn't feel like diving deeper into it. The Status HUD and ShackTack HUD options are both good, the Status HUD is a little more traditional video game with numbers indicating health and fatigue where the ShackTack version is a bit more discreet. I was a bit disappointed the Status HUD didn't use bearing numbers for the heading indicator but something is better than nothing, especially if you don't have a GPS equipped. The gear / loadout weight indicator can be handy. More just for the sake of being informative if nothing else. Still haven't tried the night vision mods yet but the one MH posted looks better based on description. The Switching Weapons While Moving mod will be a blessing, on firing drill courses if nothing else. Not working with the mouse wheel is a bit annoying but if you find a keybinding that you can reach with your left hand while still moving it won't be a big deal (I used TAB+1 for my launcher).
Pressing K will bring up the compass while looking at the map. Otherwise I haven't noticed anything, you can try browsing on Armaholic which is where I find almost all my mods.
These aren't an official mod pack, just helpful ones. While some are out of date they are still helpful for finding the latest versions so I'm leaving it up.
