Project ARES Rake5000 Edits
ARES Rake5000 Edition
A personal tweak to Project ARES, adding individual unit upgrades, equipment changes, and quality-of-life improvements.
=====================
Changes & Adjustments
=====================
== Unit Upgrades ==
– Delta Force now has individual unit upgrades (like vanilla Rangers) unlocked that cost Battle Honors.
== Mobility Adjustments ==
– All helmets now have the same mobility as Airframes, allowing visual distinction without forcing Airframes use to avoid mobility penalties.
== Equipment & Gear ==
– **Healing Items**
– First Aid Kit available to Assaulters (extra gear panel, alternative to glowsticks).
– First Aid Kit heals 50 HP instead of 35, often allowing recovery from yellow to green after a single hit.
– Medical Bag heals 100 HP instead of 50, allowing full recovery from critical (red) wounds.
– Fixed a bug where First Aif Kits often wouldn’t heal and increased radius to ease use.
– **Weapons**
– HK417 available to all Operators.
– Ultimax-100 LMG and MK48 MOD 1 LMG available to Assaulters and Enablers 3 & 4.
– **Optics**
– Operators now have access to the Holosight XPS3, like Enablers, instead of just the XPS2/551.
– Aimpoint T2 Red Dot available to Operators on the 416 Custom, like Enablers.
– **Breachers’ Gear**
– 3x slaps available.
– 2x and 3x torches available.
== 9 Bang Adjustments ==
– Same as my ‘Realistic Grenades and Explosives’ mod
– No fire effect, no smoke effect.
– Reduced sound effect loudness, but noise range remains unchanged.
== Cosmetic & Visual Tweaks ==
– All clothing cosmetics unlocked.
– New black Airframe design for Team Leader.
– Some helmet designs swapped (e.g., MICH Gunfighter for Breachers & Assaulters).
– Ballcaps swapped for Operator 1 and 6.
