I use it since years and recommend it. I also find it easier seeing explosion of nades better than in some other alien visions.

do people still recommend this?

Here I am wondering how people see me hiding.

yeah man

Its sad that this shit is one of the most downloaded mods...

great mod, use it all the time!

Could you please make it reversed. <3

ah so this is how they see me taking a piss inside a bush, why just why...

why?

This may need an update

Как поставить? Помогите. Я не силен в английском

Last time I used this, it was still impossible to see in the dark. Has this changed at all?

"Starts on but can be toggled off?" -> yes please, that would be perfect

You forgot to add the mod's code in the description!
It's 5E4C7A6

Haha, that's exactly perfect, thank you.

Would everyone be happy if I made it reversed? Starts on but can be toggled off?

Is there a way to make it non-toggleable manually?

Updated to be toggleable again.

duz this make seeing in the dark easier or harder?

Congrats on your mod being officaly added in 261 (maybe with few changes

This is the second oldest NS2 steam workshop mod. Now just turned 1 year old! :)

time to cheat!

yeah theres no on / off toggle with this :/

I can't turn of alien vision now. Help please.

any chance you can release a new AV with everything greyscale and marines/structures highlighted green, I'd do it myself if I knew how

when alien vision if off, can it just show nothing highlighted? I want a clean alien vision again.

Good to see that this finally works xD I hope they don't go around patching it just to be douchebags. I'll definitely use this it's infinitely better than just outlines when a huge group atk happens.

Thanks.

figured id let you know, since you were nice enough to reply and help. i had been running in OpenGL, since the game is too choppy to run currently in either DX mode. on whim i swapped to DX11 and the mod worked fine, so alls well. ^^ once performance is patched back up, definately gonna keep it around for use.

oh, i found that folder. i completely deleted it and all its files within it prior to reinstalling to no avail.

allright. ill give tech support a looksee later after work, then. thanks for the assistance ^^

You literally just paste that into your explorer and it will take you to the folder. It navigates to your AppData folder "C:\Users\NAME\AppData\Roaming\Natural Selection 2"

If the normal alien vision glow isn't showing up either it sounds like a problem with the renderer, not my mod. You may want to try posting over at the tech support forums http://forums.unknownworlds.com/categories/technical-support

i cant find any folder or file with that name anywhere. where is it located? a search of C: found nothing. the only one i know of was in C:/users/<name>/Natural selection 2, which i deleted completely before reinstalling.

also currently in GL, since the game stutters in DX9 or 11 modes after the last patch, if that has any impact. the 'obnoxious orange' vision DOES work with the mod disabled, however the 'constant glow' sposedly in place in normal view was not prior as well as post reinstallation.

I'm assuming AV works with the mod disabled? Also try switching renderers in your options, and if none of that works, give me your log.txt from %appdata%\Natural Selection 2

I doubt it would be consistency checks. Reinstalling the game isn't going to clear out your shader cache. Did you try clearing it out? %appdata%\Natural Selection 2\cache

just uninstalled the game, completely deleted the Natural Selection 2 folder in the users folder of my system, and deleted the old folder in the Steam directory. reinstalled. DLed mods anew, and it still did not work in training practice, even with it listed in the load screen. is the consistancy on by default in the training mode? if so, there a way to turn it off? or any other ideas?

If it's listed as active on the load screen then it should show up. You could try clearing out your shader cache %appdata%\Natural Selection 2\cache

just tried a training match with bots with this active, and it had no effect. no glows, no colorations, nothing. not sure if its the mod *which is active in the menu and listed as active on the load screen* or my settings?

i liked old alien vision. i honestly cant tell marines from the background before im dead without the extreme color contrast x_x;

Updated for 252. It should look almost exactly the same, and will now just be always on. Activating dark vision does nothing at the moment; I'll add something else later.

Thank you! I hated the over-covering alien vision.

This is slightly less useful than the original alien vision built into the game, particularly when a room is unlit or redlit, so it's hardly some kind of cheat.

The reason you'd use this is that the original alien vision makes NS2 look graphically worse than NS1; it's that bad. Lots of shimering along tiny cracks and alpha tested textures, everything looks faceted, polygonal and puke green.

How can people possibly consider this a cheat? Have they never actually played the game? This is already in the original game because aliens can see in the dark. The mod makes it look better, that's all. But mong power, let's burn the author for the gamemaker's choice and then celebrate by firing our guns into the air without stepping outside.

@Ataaron

This is a wallhack for you? you never used the aura sight dont you ... THATS a wallhack (and it only counters the Observatory or ping from marines so THEIR the wallhackers :)

In any competitive game this would be concidered as a cheat.

Is this working for anyone else? My alien vision is still default.

how can i download this mod ?

This needs to be default, or add Batman Arkham Asylum Vision... Seriously.

There is the same alien vision in first Natural Selection. Sometimes I miss it...

seriously this is a hack its not watch some vids aliens already have some night vision abilities which are used for hunting marines when they take out the lights this merely advances on that and makes the vision look better

THIS FUCKING WALLHECK SHOULD BE BANNED!!!
...
Ok now that i have got your attention i wanna tell you that: if you think it is like a hack too, then just press F while being alien and you will see how retarded your statement really is.
i mean srsly why would you compare it to a hack if you knew that allready ?

Shhhsh. Don't tell them.

Outside of parts of Descent, this is just a comestic change for aliens. Alien vision is terrible when there is glass all over.

All the people calling this a wallhack, they realise alien vision is in the game already?
