Description
Just a medium-sized collection that improves on the overall look of the game and some QoL features, although it doesn't add a drastic change to the game.

UPDATE (16/07/2020): Removed some add-ons from the collection because they were deemed as annoying and/or unnecessary.
UPDATE (07/05/2023): Removed most add-ons that are either deprecated, don't serve enough of a purpose and causes too many errors / changes description to correct contents of the collection.

NOTE: some add-ons might require some source games.

Some notes:
If you want nicer and higher quality shadows that are hardcoded in the engine, copy and paste the following into your launch options for Gmod:
"+mat_depthbias_shadowmap 0.00001" "+mat_slopescaledepthbias_shadowmap 2" "+r_projectedtexture_filter 0.05" "+r_flashlightdepthres 16384"

viewbob_enable 1/0 to either disable or enable the viewbobbing feature during a game, in case it gets too annoying.
