📢 Attention about malware in mods

If you had installed the following mods:

"Auto Save on Exit" by Subaiy | MD5 hash - 6246fa47c492250128cbb4a463d2161a "Kill Counter" by Daniel | MD5 hash - bcee56cc847489a2a328189ba882d95e (if you downloaded this one: https://modworkshop.net/mod/56156 you are fine.) "Enemies Drop Better Loot" by Krunker | MD5 hash - ba9e7d88f1079c0324d53bde5786e4da (If you downloaded this one: https://modworkshop.net/mod/56230 you are fine). "Item Esp" by captainushi55. | MD5 hash - c663af8446d2a71747456cea36d0dfd9

Your PC is likely infected with malware. Do a proper reset to your computer.

What are we gonna do next? We are going to look for moderators to look at new mods for RTV. We'll be looking into ways to improve the site itself to better protect against these bad actors and also to let users know if a mod was infected - https://modworkshop.net/thread/13229. What can you do? Again if you are infected, factory reset your computer. Search for suspicious things in the mods you download (like "powershell")
These attacks all follow the same pattern, they execute a powershell script using some encoded URL:

Any mod containing powershell script without a good reason should be reported to moderators. Any mod that isn't open-source should be reported.
[Mod Request] Enemies use flashlights at night
Avatar

At the moment, enemies shuffle around in a high ready stance in darkness, which feels a little unnatural. Would love to see bandits and perhaps higher level AI using a light source after dark. You see this in STALKER and it helps a lot with immersion. It would encourage night raids a bit more too as you have the option of leaning into the stealth aspect of the game even more by keeping your light off.

Not sure if higher tier enemies in the later areas have NVGs but if so they would of course use them instead of a light source.
